You and I live in the same neck of the woods, based on your username, I’m just down the hill on the NV side. I’ve joked repeatedly that if you live up around the lake, you got issued an Outback when you registered to vote with a local address. You’re not helping the case made by people who got offended when I made…

Not sure what model/year of Hyundai turbo you’re referring to, but when I got my 2017 model Santa Fe Sport with the turbo last year I was a bit disappointed to learn that they’d dropped 20 horsepower from it in comparison to the 2016 model - at least, until I found out why they’d done it. Apparently what they did was…

The Outback was just not quite my cup of tea, admittedly, but I think it would suit most people quite well. I see a ton of them around here in northern NV, and my boss has a 2016 that I got to check out after she picked it up. I don’t think I could live with the center console controls and infotainment system, the…

Personally, I like the new one’s styling a lot more. The hood doesn’t look as ungainly where it meets the windshield, and all things considered they did a pretty good job “dechunkifying” the design theme. The 2017 model looks a lot sleeker and refined while still having that pronounced front end and shoulders that…

I used to feel the same way you did, and then last year I found myself needing (really, just seriously wanting) more space than a sedan could offer with less fuel economy destruction than a truck or van. I’m a big guy, and unfortunately that rules out a lot of smaller options like a Golf Sportwagen. I definitely…

Hyundai/Kia did a good job of making those available to a wide variety of car over a several year range last year, which was a big part of my reasoning behind picking up a 2017 Santa Fe Sport. Knowing that I can at least pick my poison of three different user experiences instead of just one that’ll rapidly become…

I really wish the CX-7 had still been on the market last year, the CX-5 was just too small and the CX-9 way too large.

Agreed.

Not necessarily, in extreme cases you might see that, but if you want to see a better aggregate, that’s what Metacritic is for.

Unless the gift is from the developer of the game, or a proxy for the developer, in which case it could be a bribe. This is a big, big problem with Steam right now.

This has everything to do with that, because disgruntled fanboys will review games they don’t own just to drive the score down.

If he’s getting his hands on all those drugs and keeping a buttsex log that has numbers in it that must sound like Trek stardates, I suspect desperation isn’t a big factor.

One thing that’s nice to know is that you can buy additional remotes, power bricks, and pigtail cables so you can cut these strips apart and use them in multiple segments. I recently bought a roll of these lights, and the accessories to let me make 5 complete units from it for under $20.

It just looks so terribly sloppy to me, and they all look really cheap and chintzy even though they’re OEM equipment. I think it’s just a terrible design, and would prefer it to be integrated into the dash like every other car.

Antifa has been used as a slur by the right to attack people who have any kind of leanings against their beliefs, and has also been appropriated by a number of disparate, but still small, groups of people and organizers who get involved. There is no central “Antifa” leadership that I’m aware of, and this “beating…

I read something not long ago claiming that Kirby was supposedly called out by some Nazis that came to the offices to show him “what a real nazi would do”, and went down to beat the shit out of them though they were gone when he got downstairs. Having recently read something about Kirby’s youthful efforts to travel…

They didn’t really turn Cap into a Nazi, though. They turned him into a Hydra agent, in a way that reads far more (to me anyhow) like Hydra was really something of a fifth column within Nazi Germany that only truly cared about Hydra itself. They don’t make Cap into a flag-waving Nazi symbol, or even associate him with…

pretty much every comic book superhero ever made was created by a Jewish man.

I was always under the impression (possibly a mistaken assumption) that Dr. Erskine (who created the super-soldier serum) was also a Jew, which would add another layer of “Fuck you, Hitler!” to the whole thing.

Superman helped take down the Klan, it doesn’t get much more SJW than that.
