I kind of prefer it over the old design. It’s simple and straightforward. I just wonder how many people have taken a set against it because supposedly trump came up with it.

Just a tip for people. Make an effort to switch to rechargeable NiMH batteries when possible. Eneloop batteries have the best reputation as do Ikea’s LADDA branded ones. Amazon Basics are fine too.

Nice.  Still no legal option then.  :)

“this hobby is illogical and responsible, yet I am addicted to it.”

I think maybe the difference is because the FQ-440 is tunee by an aftermarket in Europe (HKS I believe) but is supported UK Mitsu dealers while AMG is essentially a true factory car. I get the point you’re making though, there isn’t anything really magical about 400+ crank hp from 2 liters. I’m running 435 whp on my…

I read a part of the document explaining the discovery. There were a few parts in there that looked really intriguing. For example, the section covering several months really did appear to be March, April, September, and others. It seemed to line up well and it seems like it would have been a way to start decoding the…

Well yea. If you’re a pro driver on a rally circuit or don’t intend to keep your car longer than a year or so. If you want to launch, get a car with a warrantied launch control and leave the poor Evo alone.  Of course it’s your car, do what you want with it, I intend to keep mine a very long Time.

I have my own issues with their style, but generally the positives outweigh the negatives.  Obviously if you want *real* info you look up a longer, more thorough documentary, but their video is a decent primer.

It’s been a while, but I recall that the Youtube channel Donut Media had a pretty good “everything you need to know” video on the Evo last year.

Dreams of Evo 9, posts a picture of the Evo 8.

The worst Timeline would involve violent race wars and lynchings. With the fan getting banned indefinitely this isn’t all that bad but could certainly see a lot of improvement and that sign can be relegated to being just a dumb punching game again.

“If I open the hood, why am I presented with another hood?” It’s the tragedy of the modern car and people who no longer want to get involved, using the “well it’s a modern car” excuse.

Elk.  More beef than beef.  If every cow on the planet disappeared, I’d be ok as long as they were replaced by elk.

When I die, harvest what I haven’t destroyed myself with years of abuse and then throw the remains into a giant wood chipper if possible. If anything it might be kind of a hilarious way to get sent off. If people choose to remember me fondly or whatever, they will have their memories and some will have whatever…

Can’t replicate factory warranty. Easily worth $30k. /s

I hope they pick up a few more neutron star collisions soon. I love that they can follow up such events with visual confirmations. I get that imaging a black hole was a pretty big thing just recently, but gravitational wave detection is still my favorite thing that happened in astronomy/astrophysics probably since I…

An actually sensible comment getting COTD?  Something’s wrong...

If I had a space pager that can summon the universe’s most powerful hero, I wouldn’t have it made from cheap polystyrene or ABS plastic. It would at least be glass fiber reinforced nylon shell. Or vibranium. Take your pick.

Unless Captain Marvel was out stopping some other universe level threat that was trying to wipe out three-fourths of its population, Thanos isn’t just some threat, he’s *THE* threat. There really is no other answer than simply they didn’t think to write her in until recently when the whole movie hero business got very…

Nah, I give him an A-.  Obviously it worked up a lot of people.
