Yes youll lose some handling, but for a daily driver? More sidewall.

I think it’s more than fair to ask “Is this the right time for me to play this game”.

Geographically, it was set in the Rocky Mountains. This one looks like it’s going west of the Sierra Nevadas

(This is actually an Oregon Trail sequel.)

Some of those are regular enough that I’m wondering if they’re intentional, like so that the frame can drain/vent the water that enters through the unintentional ones.

To be fair, it also has similarities to being one big company with with all of its citizens as employees when you look at it on the international level. When you zoom out that far, it’s a highly successful capitalist country.

In Berlin two years ago I tried to test drive a Niva - or any Lada, really. But Lada dealers have no test cars, only customer ordered vehicles. They get no info on changes from Lada itself, reading about it in car news. They have to pay for their cars after 30 days, not the common dealer courtesy of 90 days.…

Since Europe isn't a closed market like the US, anyone who wants one can still import privately from Russia.

They rust but they do tend to run for a long time and are easy to maintain . Modern cars break down too and the more complicated the worse they are .    Oh ,and don’t be a little jerk with that boomer crap ,

Considering the genre, it’s remarkably nice looking and well acted, but it also has plenty of ridiculous 80s teen movie flotsam (like those ridiculous nerds) presented without any acknowledgement of how weird it is.

is this Buzzlopnikfeed?

Because unlike Star Wars Dorks, bloggers actually approached The Last Jedi as a film and not something that better put Luke on the equivalent of the Iron Throne, and that every person in it better be related to someone from one of the other films. Honestly, if it was discovered that Rey was related to Jar-Jar, that…

Nah it was actually a brilliant deconstruction of star wars and what it means and what it is and what it could be.  Way better than ep 7, or the prequels or ep 9.

The fact that the core objective of TLJ is a near-stationary chase scene with branching satellite stories is drastically overcome with some incredibly good additions to the Force lore/mythology.

It’s because it was great. Despite all the Star Wars fans who clearly just had an emotional reaction to being slightly challenged and are desperately trying to invent an objective reason for it.

Except it wasn’t a mess from start to finish. It has issues, but it’s a good film overall.

When you’re a big fancy executive, you get to call it a “dividend” and it’s totally legal.

Based on personal experience, I’m going to wager they are very close to going public. Because this looks a lot like the “Fuck everyone who got us here, it’s time for the owners to get PAID” phase that typically precedes it.

But it’s not capitalism that’s a problem. It’s that people aren’t capitalisming nicely, right? Or somehow this is “crony” capitalism (which, incidentally, is just regular capitalism) or a few bad eggs or something. Actually, I forgot. It’s the pirates who are taking food from the mouths of hard-working developers. No…

It could in theory be much simpler than apex seals in a Wankel. You could design the thing with simple plates-over-springs to access the seals from the outside, so you wouldn’t have to totally disassemble the engine to get at the seals. Two bolts, remove springs, remove seals. Replace seals, install springs, two bolts.
