We had the gas cap fail on our ‘96 G20 Infinity when it was about a year old. They check those things during emissions inspections, apparently. Anyway, it was under warranty, so quick replacement. That car’s still running to this day, with only one replacement battery and the normal maintenance.

Yeah... that tire joke totally went flat.

I just paid $37 for the whole outside portion of a power mirror. I’m lucky to find a decent hd web cam under $50.

I have to replace the mirror on my 4runner because of above scenario. $37. Complete with motor, wiring, mirror, hinge, everything. Takes all of 15 min to replace (one bolt is behind the inside door panel).

You know what else “eliminates the possibility of the driver inadvertently failing to place the transmission into ‘PARK’ prior to exiting the vehicle.”... A standard PRNDL mechanical shift handle.

You skipped the obvious cross/X shaped scar on his abdomen. Does that connect to the baby? To the umbilical cords?

That quote doesn’t seem as damning as is hinted at. Really, that’s how anyone should feel about their position. “if I stop doing these things we’ve left it in a good place and people pick it up and make it better.”

I, for one, don’t want that. Not only does that make it harder to hold, make hole in the screen for the speaker, and generally seem like a huge gimmick, but I really like having a physical button. Also, it’s going to be silly to put the finger print scanner on the back. Especially if you’re like me and your fingers…

One of my friends had a Crown Vic handed down to him. It was great, until about 3 years into his ownership, around 2011. At that point, during a routine drive up to NJ from VA’s eastern shore, it decided it was a good time to rupture the intake manifold taking the cooling system and a number of other ‘under hood…

“Well, that escalated quickly. I mean that really got outta hand fast!”

You know if you boot the Mac into it’s “BIOS” by turning it on while holding Command and ‘R’. It’ll go into a Recovery BIOS and you can tell it to install OS X. As long as you have network access (via WiFi you’ll have to tell it the creds to, or a network cable), It’ll automatically install the latest version of OS X…

Around here in VA, brine is used on the roads every time even a hint of a snowflake appears. I’m sure we’re not special in that regard.

How is a “Toggle” for Bluetooth and WiFi any different than the swipe up menu? I use that all the time and it’s convenient and quicker than trying to swipe over to find my settings app every time I want to do such a thing..

Might want to add a speaker grill here or your passenger’s foot will go through the speaker the first time that VTEC kicks in, yo.

They do make 10Gbit networking gear, perhaps the next model will support that. Or you can try binding multiple ports in most OSes which could also help to up that.

However, I think they’re banking on you buying 802.11ad cards for all your devices and dropping those pesky wires.

I assume this follows the UHD standards released at CES? http://goo.gl/hO8gpD

Depends on how far back you sit. The demo’s at BestBuy (which is the only reason that place exists, I’m pretty sure) are pretty spectacular. It’s a huge difference on a 60” TV if you’re less than 6-8’ from it. I mean, standing about 6’ from it, it still looks like you’re looking out a window instead of at a TV.

One…

Fogged windows != Frost

Frost is on the outside. Fog is on the inside.

Besides, Typical Defrost settings on any car in the last few decades automatically turn on the A/C and turn off re-circulation. Mine only takes a few seconds to defog the inside of the windshield and it’s 13 yrs old at this point. Removing frost…

Or Thunderbolt for so equipped Mac and PC users. I’d love to have an external 2TB SSD running at 20Gbit and they’ve been shipping laptops with Thunderbolt ports for years at this point.

They only removed it from the MacBook. Not the MacBook Pro, or Air. I see them sticking with it on the Pro for a while... But on the smaller/thinner laptops, they basically said “Well, USB-C can do the equivelent of two different ports. So instead of having to have the space taken up from both a MagSafe port AND a USB…
