To say nothing of the nonsensical “Tiny Tina” inclusion this very month (when the Handsome Collection had already been featured ages ago). They’re going hard in on tossing out this Potemkin-game slop, that’s 3 of the past 4 months now. And Ghostrunner was free on Prime recently as well. Oh well, at least the Sonic…

No, it isn’t. I don’t doubt there are a number of cities wherein certain neighborhoods would be fine, but I’ve lived in plenty of places where not having a car, pre-Instacart, basically consigned you to shopping in a fucking gas station or convenience store. Hope you like hot dogs of questionable provenance, and go…

I hear you, man—I’d been listening to him literally since Fantasma, but shit, he absolutely should’ve been prosecuted for a number of the incidents he described.

Maybe he can hook up with Cornelius and create a Toxic Twosome, in his copious spare time.  

Any “short guys need not apply” signs in windows during the depression?

I LOVE Carvana. This past December I sold them my 2013 FR-S for >$21,500 (I had paid $15K for it four years and 20K miles ago); shortly thereafter, I placed my first-ever order for a new car, a 2022 BRZ Limited, a scant two weeks before Subaru closed orders on it; straight MSRP, no funny business. Sure, it won’t be…

Yeah, as I was repeatedly cautioned throughout my childhood, the only reason I myself am not named “Wolfgang” is because my mother pitched a conniption fit at the prospect back in the day. My brother was born the day after Elvis died from his toilet bender and likewise only narrowly avoided a similar fate due to her…

Literally the very first “fixture” I added to my house when I bought it three years ago was a fancy Art Deco-style brass sign instructing guests to remove their shoes, which I bought the same day my mom came over for a housewarming and, to my clean amazement (this is 70-yo woman who spent her entirely life in the…

That guy is either an abject fucking moron, or a middling troll, and in either event, he’s not worthy of your efforts. The fact he whines about obstructionism on the one hand while advocating, with a straight face, for a, hahahahahahahaha, 7/8 majority requirement on Senate legislation strongly suggests it’s the…

Yeah, my furnace has service stickers on it from the early 90s, so I feel pretty safe reasoning it’s at least that old.

FWIW, I barely know any streamers and only know of one car belonging to one, Wingsofredemption’s V6 Mustang, but judging by the reception that got (lol, “M.U.S.T.A.N.G.”, etc), this guy probably couldn’t have won with a cheap ride, either.

Reliability and maintenance is similar.

I don’t read the Times, but I’m quite aware of Manjoo from his time at Slate years back when I still read it, and this is about as surprising as water being wet or the sun rising in the east. For a tech writer, his facility with technical details is appalling.  I should go and see if he did a Windows 11 review, it’s…

THANK YOU! All of the From games have a platinum rate of 5-10%; not just completion of the game, mind you, but obtaining 100% of the trophies, which always requires at least 2 full playthroughs and a ton of other specific tasks. Truly “hard” games seldom see plat rates much above 1 or 2% (and there are plenty down at…

Well, by that definition then 38 U.S. states plus Washington, D.C. must have modeled themselves on Putin’s Russia, because that’s how many permit sobriety checkpoints, and SCOTUS has upheld the practice as constitutional.  Amusingly, they’re prohibited by state laws in the most soused states (looking at you, Wisconsin…

Heated seats. They debuted when I was a kid, and growing up in far northern Wisconsin, I always imagined how awesome they would be. To finally get a car that had them, decades later, only to learn that the sensation they transmit is not an enveloping, cozy warmth, but rather the impulse to take a power dump, was…

I can’t help but think this is going to crash condensed cream soup futures...

Really? You can't understand why someone wouldn't want to throw away 2/3 of the usable space in the tiny trunk of their brand-new car with a high school shop project? 

Agreed; super cheap and easy, and the payoff is obvious and immediate. I’ve got a new BRZ on order, and probably the only mod I’ll make to it (apart from PPF and a stereo upgrade, once JL releases a Stealthbox for the Gen 2s) will be some Carbotech pads and replacing the fluid w/ some DOT-4 Motul.
