The new recruits here lately have been confusing stunning engineering with the rich people who own them, and that their job should be to cover the vehicle first. Almost everyone who reads Jalopnik already thinks Bezos is a scumbag, piling on is just annoying. Spanfeller’s plan for G/O seems to be to turn it into a…

I see zero harm in offering it as an option. The majority of the owners are not driving these cars at 10/10ths and 99.98% of these m3s will never be on a track or doing any sort of formal racing. These are street cars first and people who live in cold climates have been more and more demanding awd on luxury cars. …

“Looks like your average Uber passenger and their typical respect for an overworked, underpaid driver.”

Ferrari has a long wait list for these one of one cars. I don’t think the owner was considering the pandemic when they ordered the car a couple years ago. And sure, it costs the same as a bunch of PPE. Of course the issue with PPE right now is supply constrained, not specifically the ability to pay for it.

If you had enough money to have Ferrari make a custom car just for you, are you saying you’d never make any frivolous purchases on anything?

All great questions. This article should be a thought exercise along the lines of “what would happen if the ban went into effect tomorrow?”

Instead, we have from-the-hip word vomit with absolutely zero critical thought put into it. Like most things Raph and Erik spit out, this take seems to be nothing more than being…

This is a shitpost right? Is shitposting allowed on the front page?

I attempted to read the article but this monster and the opening sentence made my social studies teacher brain glitch out. Billy needs an editor, badly

He used a colon in a hyphenated break. Just wow.

I’m just here for the Billy comments.

Next time, not a single fucking period; really fuck with them

One of the core concepts used to support this belief—and maybe the most important one, as it sought to preempt the strongest point of evidence for the contrary position: the inarguable supremacy of Barcelona and Real Madrid—was the idea that, unlike in Spain where the Big Two effortlessly piled mountains of goals and…

Jesus fuck that was painful to read...

I hit a point about halfway through this when I thought, “I have absolutely no idea what this is actually about anymore.”

That is an 84-word “sentence.” God almighty.

Granted this may be more of a commentary on my own reading skills, but that took me three attempts to read and comprehend the point Billy was trying to make.

That first sentence-paragraph is... just... wow.

I’m fine with 40 hours, I’d just like for the standard to become 4 day work weeks. I’m at a place now that works four tens, and it’s awesome. I’m dreading the eventual move on to another project with a client that works a traditional five eights.

Yes, yes, how dare I think about how this might actually affect the working people instead of pretending to support them to the internet.

Don’t think so. More vacation time...yes. More actual sick leave instead of masking it as “paid time off”...yes. End to the abuse of contracting versus hiring actual employees...yes.
