UNRELATED: Anyone else having a nightmare of a time finding comments that people have responded to? It used to take me directly to my comment, or the comment to my comment, but now I have to scroll through the entire comment thread to find responses.

It’s kinda crazy having read (and experienced professionally) the craziness behind the scenes at Techland as it relates to the role their CEO plays and then seeing how they nearly always tend to come to such sensible decisions.

It’s really cool to see a game just keep getting such support so far down the line. 

Techland deserves more love than could possibly be given for a developer.

An actual Rainbow Six: Quarantine mode would be pretty solid, though. A bunch of dudes break down my apartment door, grapple in from the window of my second story place, it’s just me without pants, a little drunk from day drinking, in front of a laptop watching Netflix for the 6th hour of the day.

the age old practice of a publisher using the name of an established franchise to sell what is for all intents and purposes a new IP because they don’t think it will sell well on it’s own.

Find me an “American” product and most of the time it’s still made in China or comprised of a high percentage of parts made in China. I will purposely try to find things not made in China for political reasons, but it happens very regularly that the cheap brand, the mid level brand, and the high end brand are all made…

- The vehicle itself is made of spitwads and straightened-out paper clips.

Ugh, I have had this discussion in the past with some Tesla stans.

Atacama desert(in Chile) is one of the few relatively untouched places on earth until lithium mining. The response I have gotten in the past is, “who cares about a desert”, from surprisingly a lot of these posters.

Here Here. The whole “wHaT iF yOu GeT t-bOneD bY a sEmI dOiNg 1oo??/?” crowd is insufferable.

Yeah, no. My TLC was directed at people who clutch pearls about an abstract notion of “safety” every time a non-US market vehicle is presented as a conduit for reassuring themselves that they are socioeconomically above someone else.

It’s not about safety, it’s about pointing down and laughing. “I am concerned about…

It is nearly impossible to get many Americans to care about how Black Americans are treated by the US government. Getting them to care about people (oftentimes non-white, oftentimes poor) outside of the US seems less likely than me being vaporized in a tokamak.

I had to Google “Kessy”, I’ve never heard keyless start referred to in that way. When I Googled it the first hit was on SEAT’s website, so I’m guessing it’s more common in Europe.

I should tell the stories of me taking Smarts where they don’t belong. There’s even a picture of me trying to pull a Tacoma out of the same mud bowl with the Smart.

He was holding the brakes the whole time so I didn’t stand a chance. lol

My top level comment was directed at someone like you. Please read it and understand you are part of the reason why we cannot have alternatives to crossover SUVs at the moment.

So to answer your question, me. I would. I’d take it on every residential, surface road, state road, and county road around me. It’ll be just…

I need to make sure that everyone understands the reason we don’t have things like the Hong Guan Mini is entirely political and social, not technical or economic. It would be literally illegal to build similar low-cost cars here because our transportation laws metastasized in the 1950s to 1960s to center around the…

I now see Phaetons all the time at the 200K miles range nowadays. So they can go the distance in terms of mileage

Gonna have to disagree with you there. Mine is an absolute basket case, despite care in driving and regular maintenance. It may be anecdotal, as it’s only one data point, but it is the least reliable car of anyone I personally know. It has me looking at the failure rates of modern BMW M cars jealously.

It is the poor bastards who have to clear up after them that I feel sorry for. Traumatizing ER and Ambulance crews, traumatizing road clear up crews, making innocent passers by who see their corpses and have to call the aforementioned go through all that too. Refusing to wear your seatbelt is not a victimless crime.…

That looks like an Italian ice. This is water ice:
