At some airports, no.  At some smaller airports they are either airport employees or contractors who rotate through the various gates for the various airlines.

I learned by parallel parking behind my own car.  That was enough to cause me to pay attention.

In all honesty, the torque vectoring system sucks at the limit anyway. The delay between reading the inputs and the level of force involved means I, as the driver, have found myself fighting the steering wheel when trying to unwind from a corner. Especially tight ones.  This leads to a less smooth corner exit and…

Shhh... Don’t let my wife hear you say that! (I have a ‘15 STI.)

Oooh.  I forgot about the 5 speed versus 6 speed as well.  Regarding the DCCD and S# stuff, good call.  I was thinking of all of that as lumped into one large “differential bucket”, but you’re right to call those out as well.

I wouldn’t say it’s the main differential. It’s one of them, though. Off the top of my head, the STI also has:
1. Stiffer suspension
2. Larger brakes
3. Quicker steering rack
4. The older EJ motor (and all of the aftermarket support that comes with that motor)
5. The giant friggin’ wing.

Right, it’s not a factor of knowing the person in question’s gender and/or preferred gender pronouns. Traditional English rules tell us to just pick one (typically the masculine), but colloquially the plural they/them is often used in these cases as a stand in for a gender neutral pronoun. (English doesn’t have one.) H…

I’m always late to these, but here’s mine.

I loved the looks other people at the gas station would give when they saw you pouring 2-stroke straight into the gas tank.  The reactions were pretty hilarious.

I’m late to reply so I’ll probably get lost in the grays.

QOTD.

Having spent a bit of time traveling, I’ve found it fascinating how people intuit distances, and arbitrarily decide what is and is not considered “far”. While working on a project in Rhode Island I almost laughed when a local warned me that a journey of 20 minutes was “kind of far”. Whereas growing up in the…

Thank you for providing this explanation. I’d wager that the article author doesn’t fully understand the complexities of modern software development, nor should they.  Their simplification was enough for the majority of their readers, but I’m glad somebody provided the details.  (I was going to, but I’m a day late in…

The whole update thing is the most frustrating part about modern consoles. I’m an adult with adult responsibilities. This means that sometimes I need to time box my gaming. So when I have a small 30 minute slot to play games, but it takes 20 minutes to download an update... well I tend to get frustrated. Seriously…

This.  As a diabetic, 14 hours without food means I’m about to have a very bad day.

Come to Connecticut, the land of left exits.  You’ll understand it.  You may not agree with it, but you’ll learn to understand it.

Starting with this generation, they dropped the Impreza from the name so it is Subaru WRX or Subaru WRX blah, blah, blah. The WRX was introduced before the new Impreza platform and doesn’t share any sheet metal with the modern Impreza, unlike previous generations.

“Bunch of idiots acting like adolescents for their entire adult lives.”

Disagree.

What, no option for the Vapelord type?

(Disclaimer: I drive a 2015 STI and do not vape. But I fully understand the origins and continuation of the WRX = VAPE stereotype after the last time I went to a Subaru meet where the air outside looked like something from a Pink Floyd concert.)
