Once upon a humbler time my dad had a Jetta, a '94 if memory serves, and pretty much as soon as the warranty was done it spent more time in the garage than on the road. He's told me a terrifying story of it stalling during rush hour on a busy highway and watching in terror as someone swerved at the last second to…

At least they did this after winning the world series. In Montreal this happens after a round 1 NHL playoff win...

Mercedes has really stepped up their styling game as of late. I always felt their cars looked a few years behind everyone else's, but now they're right up at the front.

yeah that's true. but if audio streaming is a requirement for you, it's the only option.

The new airport express is still a viable option; except you do have to deal with an actual power cable. other than that it has all of the same functions.

He managed to not only find a spot big enough for that beast, but also managed to park it? Hats off to you sir!

My neighbour has an enclave (as does seemingly every second house on my street) and recently got an encore as well. Man is it a puny little thing! I know we're moving toward smaller cars; but nobody who likes the concept of an SUV would buy this. It's too small to serve any of the practical purposes associated with…

I think I'm going to boycott next season and watch a replay of the 2002 or 2003 season instead.

Moments in life that you remember vividly many years after the fact are few and far between, but I still remember the first time I heard the F2002 in person. It's something that I'm going to cherish for along time to come; especially in light of these bullshit beehive engines they're bringing in next year.

Since I have yet to meet a single person who has even heard of PowerShell outside of where I worked, I'd have to agree with you 100%.

I think PowerShell was the most significant thing I learned while working there. I'm so grateful I even got a two-day course in it; I think being able to put that on my resumé is going to be a huge plus once I graduate.

I interned in an IT department over the summer and had never heard of powershell before; but holy hell is it a powerful tool. With some simple custom scripts, we could do stuff like remotely turn on computers to install updates, retrieve bitlocker encryption keys from active directory, even finding out the serial…

It isn't really broken, Microsoft is just putting their new services front and center.

Probably not that long. If you've used a windows computer in the last 4 years you're probably familiar with the windows explorer tile which is auto-pinned to the taskbar; and it opens the same window that This PC (formerly My Computer/Computer) opened.

I wonder if a trend like this would ever catch on: celebrities spending (or apparently not spending anything) a lot of money having their first car restored to original condition. It would definitely be more original than buying the latest douche-mobile, or modifying the crap out of an M3 or something.

My grandfather had a 1969 Delta 88, and it kept on running until the early 90s when the engine seized up (or so he said, he never actually bothered having a mechanic check what was wrong). My dad and my two aunts testify to being parking champions having learned to drive in that behemoth of a car; and my dad still…

Winter tires are a must if you get anything more than a dusting of snow. I happen to live somewhere that legislates winter tires from december 15 to march 15, and for good reason (gotta love them canadian winters!)

So much for cost-saving measures...

I drive a car that's gotta be 5 feet longer than this one and I've gotten it out of parking lots with less space than this.

as far as the "one button solutions" go, the nespresso is probably the best one. Still not a replacement for a proper machine and someone who knows what they're doing, but close enough for someone who's short on time.
