Yeah, but with more european colonialism flavor...

If you go by the really formal ways, it could be the third time around. While bored (and possibly intoxicated) one time I came across something that said the second is supposed to technically be Jr, and their child is supposed to be II....

I sort of assumed that the squat was what donk drivers did to their trucks...

I got to ride in a Rivian before I left California behind. I went to the beach with a friend whose boyfriend works for them (and whom I gave a good natured ribbing to, because he’s the one who designed those headlights), and one of his coworkers brought it by. With 4 of us in it, and the “hidden” launch control turned…

Can anybody explain the purpose of titles cycling on and off Netflix (or other services) multiple times in a short timespan? I feel like several of these titles were dropped last year, and just brought back...

This was such a beast in Gran Turismo 2...

She really doesn’t speak about issues within the city, the way that someone who finds themselves south of 8 mile regularly would...

I mean...having a press car at Jalopnik has resulted in a higher than average number of impacts with stationary objects...

Another check it needs, in addition to the one you suggest, is “I’ve noticed a low traction situation x number of times in less than y number of minutes”, to disable FSD for the remainder of the drive. Kicking the traction control in three times within 5 minutes, or for longer than 3 seconds in one occurrence should…

Exactly. Know your audience.

You’re half right. You’re right about the environmental impact, and the danger to pedestrians and bicyclists, but the entire rest of your premise falls completely flat for most major cities where there are things like, oh, winter, or where transit is, like in almost every major city in the world, utterly lacking in…

Erin, seriously, this is the second time I’ve commented on an article just to call you out on this exact thing. You seriously need to learn to read a room.

Meanwhile, back in reality...

Must be nice to live in a city with real transit. Most people don’t, though...

I prefer the term “vintage”, thank you very much...

You should probably source a better image for that checklist. The current one is barely readable, even when zoomed in.

My dad sold off the Seneca in the early 90s, so I’d imagine it’s been retrofitted since then. The Arrow was what he upgraded to the Seneca from, so that was late 80s. I’d imagine both have been retrofitted since then...

You know what, I’ve never sided with Musk on this before, but this is a feature I kind of dig. It’s not like there’s a standard noise for ICE vehicles, so why define standards for sounds being played by electric ones?

Is it common to retrofit older aircraft with shoulder harnesses? I don’t recall them being in any of the planes my dad had when I was growing up (the ones I’m old enough to remember were a Cherokee Arrow, and a Seneca). I admit it raised an eyebrow reading that line in your article, because it never occurred to me…

Wow, putting words in my mouth. Top notch! I’m honored that you know me well enough to know what matters to me, and why!
