Are the cameramen/women afraid of calling a spade a spade?

Changing the narrative, if you will—it’s a good thing to do if you’re committed to the industry and want to change the toxic culture of harrassment. If you’re an actual gamer, though, it will be the big leagues at the earliest if you want to impose any sort of consequences on some schlub in his parents’ basement…

Gaming is an industry infested with man-children...more news at 6.

Yeah, LR ranks pretty high on the “worst brand of car to buy for Uber/Lyfting.”

The Corvette (at least the base model) is not a limited-production model, so all you have to do is wait out (out-wait?) the early adopters. There was a lot of hype around the C7 in 2013-4 as well, so the dealer markups would have been in full force.

I’m so-so on the Jeep, but hot damn I want a “Forever Fire Extinguisher.”

Reporters are afraid of losing access to Trump because the PotUS has more security than any other world leader.

Yup, this.  Passion is often a vulnerability for exploitation.  See also: Japan’s anime industry.

Interactive entertainment (i.e. “video games”) captures its market at a very young age (childhood). It subsequently attracts a very young, vulnerable labour force that is ripe for exploitation. Look at all the kids whose passion for games brought them to work for the gaming giants. This industry thrives on “people…

Not sure if it compensates for worldwide forest loss, but China’s re-forestation effort has also been staggering. Since the low of 12% in the 1970s (Wikipedia), it is now at 21.7% with a target of 30% in the next 30 years. Northern China is still in a desertification crisis, so they are aggressive by necessity.

Because I love cars and everyone should be driving base model Nissan Versas, lest I call them out for compensating insecurities.

News flash: Any luxury or non-bare-bones car by definition sells on some measure of vanity.

This is probably where scalable and affordable production processes come into play. The Vette uses stampings, extrusions and very large castings, whereas the exotic cars use tube frames and sometimes CF tubs.  Those 300-500 pounds are probably a big part of the cost differential.

Viper ACRs are borderline undriveable on the street. I know someone whose ACR would get LSD-stuck on his own driveway when a wheel lifted off the ground.  Regular Vipers are fine, just a bit cramped for taller folk.

Thanks for the firsthand account, and an honest assessment of why you bought and fell out of love with the car.

Mustangs sell because they look sporty enough and are still comfy. The GT350 rides more like a Porsche 911 GT3, which is HARD.  If you’re used to more hardcore sports cars such as those, then that is acceptable--for most Mustang loyalists it’s too much.

Selling the car sets a bad precedent and incentivises other corrupt officials to do the same thing and funnel the sales into the wrong coffers.

Because then the corrupt customs people will keep shipping cars in, finding a fall guy for them, and then “auctioning it off for a good cause.”

This is CP at $5k, but NP at 3-4k if the mechanicals are sound.

The Testarossa debuted at 380 bhp, the 512TR had 428 and the F512M had 446.
