I think it has come to a point where considering AMG cars are hopped up standard models in what is arguably a luxury brand, continuing down this path with RWD would be beating a dead horse. Every iteration will be adding more power as per the norm, so while entertaining and all, spinning rear wheels to the noise of a…

2. Lancia Stratos or 037

The double click sounds like a faulty lock mechanism that's just re-locking due to either obstruction or a bad indicator position relay. We had a similar problem with the magnetic locks in our editing rooms. While somewhat unsophisticated, the solution that worked for us was yanking while it was unlocking. The problem…

While that is true, the notes are synced as pictures and not re-editable (though they can be annotated on once again through Skitch).

Istanbul. From 4-lane highways to narrow alleys, highrises to slums, smooth boulevards to pothole-speckled seaside byways, it has everything. Street bazaars and kids playing soccer provide obstacles. Traffic is always hell. Two bridges provide the main arteries of commuter transportation between Europe and Asia, and…

It may seem counterintuitive, but the massive amounts of torque mean that they can take advantage of taller gearing, keeping the engine at peak torque for longer and aiding in acceleration. Shorter gearing would probably knock some significant time off the 0-62 sprint, but the constant gear-hunting would cripple it on…

wat.

Skitch is currently a stop-gap solution to the issue I'm facing. The Evernote integration is about as deep as a snapshot note, with annotation and natural input lacking pressure sensitivity or basically any of the depth of options on the desktop app. From a brief look, the same could be said about Penultimate in that…

The torque band will probably make up for any top speed deficit, and since it's a diesel the sheer pulling power will be there at the speeds that matter the most rather than the de-facto 0-62 arena.

I used Evernote and OneNote back in college on a plethora of convertible tablets such as the HP tx2000 and IBM X61t. As hand-written class notes go, I could probably attribute 30 percent of my college success to the pressure sensitive writing and drawing I did in the notebooks of those softwares.

I'm still trying to understand how this happens. Even if the cars are identical in make/model and have the same type of plates and stickers... do you not lock your car? Do you leave the windows open? What is this I don't even?

Saudi Arabia. The road between Turaif and Nairyah, also known as Route 85. The longest stretch of straight road is over 233km, and in total it's over 1000km (about 1030km). In that thousand, there are a few kinks which could probably be counted by hand. My internet skills failed me regarding a link, but it's there. I…

I get it. The "browning" of the dough is not from oven baking but is a dye.

I had no idea you came here too. Cheers.

Those tires look very low profile, and the wheels are tucked really tight into the wheel wells. I don't want to judge a book by the cover, but that looks like a jarring ride for a 1.8 or 2.0 TFSI. Not that the BMW 123i is any better, but still.

For the less snobbish/cheapskates: Sennheiser HD201. Probably more suitable for Lifehacker or someone with a little DIY savvy, but for 25 bucks they produce a nice flat response and the lacking depth in the lower frequencies can be easily remedied by removing two screws and adding some felt and cotton backing to the…

I clicked on the link expecting to cash in on a good deal for my admittedly very basic photo editing purposes. I was quite surprised to see I had already purchased it on a previous occasion (for the same price!) and never gotten around to use it for some reason. Thanks for the reminder!

Raph, odd request here: Is that a Pajero Pinin in number 3?

It's more a matter of the violinist not being able to hit the note on the first try and rather than sliding to correct and make it even more obvious, just going with it. Even if the violin were a whole tone out of tune (which it shouldn't be since they would tune it right before playing) you can compensate for such a…

As long as I have a supermodel riding shotgun and plenty of GoPros, why not.
