The first car I bought was an 87 MR2!... except I bought it in like 2012 :)

I wouldn't even pin it down to Styrofoam products exclusively - humanity (or maybe first-world?) has some weird obsession with disposability and single-use products. Outside of the medical industry, there's so few excuses for disposable products and convenience is not one of them. It's like somehow being able to throw…

I daresay very select few areas :/

Good read. Lots of familiar information as we bought our first house almost two years ago and swapped out the busted oil boiler (and poorly installed central A/C) for a 5-unit Mitsubishi H2i ductless heatpump system, installed solar panels to offset out electricity footprint, and of course spent a bit of time with…

Yeah wtf... I have a 120GB SSD in my personal laptop which has been comfortable for over seven years, even with music and photo libraries. Sure it requires the occasional cleanup, but it’s not a particular challenge unless you’re trying to save multiple games and movies at any time.

24 mph? That ends up being 1,736 DAYS sitting in a car, 95% of the time. That doesn’t make sense.

I’m all for technicalities but this is just silly. They never claimed it made computations faster - they said it makes your PC faster. And when your OS boots quicker, your applications open faster, and literally every hard drive read/write operation is exponentially faster, that literally makes your PC faster.

Why are Nendoroids so expensive??

Glad to see that this is a thing!

Tiny hatchbacks for the win. Easily transport a mountain bike without any additional equipment (roof/bike rack) or degradation to fuel economy (roof rack, probably bike racks to a lesser degree).

Ugh there’s this self-help book I was reading and it intentionally kept jumping back and forth between male and female pronouns - multiple times even within one page - because it could be applied to anybody... WOW is this annoying. Why couldn’t they just consistently use the word “they” or “them” rather than creating…

I use a searchable emoji browser addon/extension at work with Windows 7 since native emoji support is 💩 and why go to a website to find an emoji when you can just click a button and have it at your fingertips as an extension?

I’m not sure of your point...? The earth naturally releases greenhouse gases so it’s nbd to contribute as much as we want and can with no qualm for the consequences? New cars are far more efficient and cleaner burning than they ever have been so let’s ignore all the other negative environmental impacts of them? We use…

There’s a big difference between stupid (looking) fads and stupid fads that actually affect other people. Have all the fake hood scoops you want on your car - it’s your car and if you want to make it look dumb and not hurt anything but people’s eyes, then so be it.

Either extreme is a little much but you have to think that there’s a reason for both sides which is pretty impressive for Tesla. People love them because they aren’t conforming to a mold (well, I guess besides the whole SUV part :P)and have no regard for the status quo and despite being so new and tiny, they’re…

Well there’s the problem! They put the sensors so low that the rednecks rolling coal out of their smokestacks completely bypassed them!

Let’s be real though. Consider all the lifted trucks out there... it’s probably not much of a stretch to say that most never go off-road... I almost respect* a lifted truck with road tires more than a lifted truck with knobby tires because at least they’re fitting.

I’m down for this trend XD

Definitely don’t agree with the low-profile headlight thing - the older cars needed headlights as big as they were and they’re pretty obnoxiously big for the most part. And I’d say generally, the bigger they are, the worse they are to the overall front-end aesthetics - just because that’s the way the car was designed t…

Ok my Mini has a “Cooper S” sticker on the third brake light (thus illuminating Cooper S when braking) and while I didn’t put it on there and wouldn’t put it on there, I do think it’s kinda cool and I’ve just let it be. If it completely covered the light, I would have certainly taken it off, but probably like 60% of…
