My daughter just started kindergarten, and was assigned one of these Chromebooks. I have no idea how you're supposed to use it. It doesn't have a CD-ROM drive, or even a floppy drive, and there's no place to plug in a modem to it. How are you supposed to get data onto and off of it?

Thereare ways of buying cars (used, cheap) that don't incur $800/ month payments. 

I have 92k miles on my 2015 Mustang GT that I special-ordered in June 2014. It runs great and I have no urgent need to replace it. I’ll be fine.

This really is nuts to me. I make multiple times this and the idea of spending $800 or $900 / month on a car loan is insane to me. I’m just not sure who these people buying all these cars are.

I’m 42; if the Crown came in PHEV form I’d definitely consider it. I want my next vehicle to be a PHEV, but the Crown ticks most of the boxes of what I’m looking for - comfortable, spacious, good gas mileage, reliability, luxurious interior without a Mercedes price tag. Seems to me like the average person buying an X3…

The list price on this soundbar is $1,000. Can somebody please explain to me what the thought process is behind spending $1,000 on a soundbar rather than just getting a surround sound setup, other than “I’m too lazy to run cables and I’ve never heard of conduit so I think it would be ugly”?

Can it have a third person mode, so I can play it? First-person video games give me nausea and I cannot play them.

The very best power slide I ever did - seriously, it was magical, about 270 degrees through a circle with a radius of 200 feet or so - was in a giant empty church parking lot with about 3 inches of fresh powdered snow at 1:00 a.m. in a 1987 Toyota Corolla. With a 3 speed automatic. Got up to about 30 mph, spun the…

When it’s cold, you can always put on a warmer jacket. When it’s 100 degrees out with 90 percent humidity, you can’t take off your skin. You just have to suffer. I’ll take the cold any day.

The lede image says “best 11 winter tires.” The article mentions Leao,  Michelin, Bridgestone, and two different Hankook tires by name, and mentions Pirelli and Goodyear without specifying which tire they’re talking about. That’s seven tires; the other four don’t even get name checked in the article. And there’s no…

Here’s a 450 page manual from Toyota explaining everything you could possibly need to know about replacing Toyota wiring harnesses.

Honestly this is blowing my mind that people are disagreeing with me on this take. I had no idea that people actually liked the prevalence of videos on the internet. The whole “pivot to video” thing that destroyed so many news outlets less than ten years ago happened because Facebook faked data showing that people…

I thought it was generally agreed that two universal truths about Kinja were a) nobody likes sideshows; and b) videos should be text. Legitimately did not realize this should be a controversial thing to say.

You don’t believe that I would rather spend 2 minutes reading an article comparing tires than spend 10 minutes watching some pointless YouTube video that could have been a text you could read in 2 minutes? You really don’t believe that? Are you too young to remember reading print newspapers and magazines, that got…

There is no type of information which is more readily or completely conveyed by video than by text. If you want to explain something, write it down in words. Using videos to explain things just means you don’t care to actually convey information, just to monetize it. Similarly, I don’t watch “shows,” I read things.

Nokians >>>>>>>> all other snow tires.

I would much rather live in a place with snow than a place without snow. I can’t understand why you wouldn’t want snow. Snow is awesome. There’s no better feeling than waiting for the first real snow of the season and then driving out to a big empty parking lot to rip huge endless donuts and spins in the snow.

I don’t watch videos on the internet, so I have no idea if this was addressed in the video, but while Michelin snow tires are great (I have Michelin X-Ice xI3's for my Mustang), Michelins are not the best snow tires. If you want the best snow tires, go to a company that only makes snow tires. You want the Nokian Hakkap…

For those of us with dial-up internet connections, Chromebooks remain largely useless. Which is a shame, because it seems like the right target demographic.

To this day the Fisker Karma is the single best-looking car I have ever seen on the street. Better than any Aston or Ferrari or anything you could name. Achingly beautiful. I’ll always have a soft spot for Fisker.
