Yeah, they upgraded most of the ones in SoCal a few years ago. Even in an upscale area like Orange County, where I bought my 2018 Mazda 6, the staff just do cocaine all day and try to swindle you.

I just wish they would have released the RWD Mazda 6 they were planning. The wife and I had both agreed that it would be our next vehicle if they released it. We have 2 Mazda 6's. A basic Sport from 2015, and a post facelift Signature from 2018, and they don’t even feel like the same car. The newer one has a…

Did you mean a Miata hybrid? Because the CX-90, the upcoming CX-70, and anything else based on that RWD platform do have plug-in hybrids available. 

This is what I think it is. Take it with a grain of salt, because I’m no expert.

Sony has made the drives easy to replace since the PS3. They were very clear about it not voiding the warranty, and even have guides on their website.

The SSD in the Xbox is NOT meant to be user replaceable. It requires a significant teardown of the console, and voids your warranty. The PS5 on the other hand, has an expansion slot. Takes a screwdriver and less than 10 minutes, and does NOT void your warranty.

The problem is that even the OEMs are going all Dub Magazine on small cars. The last gen Civic Type-R had 20's, and the Focus RS had 19's. The best mod on both those cars were a -1" different wheel. 

I had a friend who’s dad was a Nabisco rep growing up. Had an absolute garage full of snacks. Needless to say their house was the go-to hangout spot growing up. 

Last thing, even if you use a garbage can, still put your garbage in bags. I know a lot of urban areas require this, but still do it even it’s not required.

That happened to me during the storms we had last winter. Took all 3 cans 2 blocks down. Also, my idiot brother let my dog out. The water where I lived was damn near knee-deep, so I’m trudging back and forth to recover bins, and a large excitable Akita. 

They’ll never know, I assure you. 

I drilled a couple holes in the bottom of my trash can so that doesn’t happen. 

This has to be the most predatory game model I’ve ever seen. This puts all the other gacha games to absolute shame. Here’s what’s gonna happen. A bunch of rich gamer bros with nothing else to do are gonna drop a bunch of money for the influence points and tank the game for everyone else. This is just a pure cash grab.…

In point of fact, a lead D2 dev talked specifically talked about lowering your own ambitions, so you don’t set expectations, in a conference.

“I don’t care about Bungie’s promises, I just like playing the game”

Sometimes it seems like Sony loves making money JUST so they can set it on fire. 

I was looking at some benchmarks a couple of weeks ago comparing the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 to the A17 Pro. While their top-end performance is very similar, the A17 can only sustain the highest settings for about 15 minutes before some pretty steep dropoff. The Snapdragon chip maintains peak settings for a long longer,…

I don’t even think it’s a troll account. If you look at their discussions, they actually engage and post normal comments. Lol. Which is worse. 

Show us on the doll where Destiny 2 hurt you. 

Yeah, banning all 3rd party controllers ain’t it. In Destiny 2, they use performance metrics of individual players (getting too good, too fast, accuracy too high, etc) to gather data on who to ban
