I usually try to avoid commenting unless I have anything useful to add, but I’ll make an exception today. I just wanted to say: Jesus motherfucking Christ.

IMO, good racing is always about a lack of fuel. And tyres.

Bollocks, Torch. Bollocks, bollocks, bollocks.

I agree with you in pretty much everything. I wish that there were more cars with supercar looks and “aspirational” prices (even if the performance is sacrificed). Something one could dream of buying after saving up for 20 years. The real successors to the NSX (and to the Esprit) is the Evora, like you say, and the…

Yup, consent is conditional. If you trick me into believing you’re my wife and we have sex, I haven’t consented to sleep with you, so it’s rape. If you only agree to sex on the condition that I’m wearing a condom, and I’m removing said condom without telling you, you haven’t consented to having sex with me, so it’s…

“Dropped” isn’t a carefully chosen word, but the investigation was suspended because they couldn’t interrogate the accused. The prosecutor has signalled that she might re-open the investigation if circumstances changes.

It’s funny to see all these people saying that “the charges were dropped”,as if that makes him proven innocent (and a few morons even saying that the charges were “bullshit”).

Look into traffic flow simulations, and consider for a minute how your actions actually affect others.

According to Google, the Supra Turbo cost $42,800 when new in 1994.

European here: Anything above 2.0 l is “big”.

I would spend a significant amount of money (if I had it) just to be able to have a two-car garage consisting of a La Ferrari and a Le Car.

You’re either vastly underestimating the cost of logging all that information or overestimating the value of storing it. The information is available in the sense that they could theoretically collect it if they wanted to, but that doesn’t mean that they do. I guarantee you that Kotaku does not keep track of how…

“Stark argued that evening the playing field through luck is a poor plan to make newer players feel successful and enjoy the game”

I think that most people don’t take offense by Papers, Please. Bureaucracy was thriving in the eastern bloc, and Papers, Please satirizes this quite nicely.

Many of these games do not aim to portray the “reality” of the place in question, but rather to portray some stereotypic view that we all have of this place.

Except, like have been mentioned a billion times before in this context, free speech has nothing to do with what you’re allowed to publish on a given platform. It’s about whether or not the government can prosecute you for saying certain things.

Torch, did the gallery related to this article get eaten by Kinja at some point?

I know that this is created as a fun piece of reading and all, but I frequently have to interact with people claiming that “hurr durr there is no innovation in the car industry other than Tesla”, and this line of thinking is precisely why.

I haven’t realised this before, but Trump’s skin does remind me about the “rich corinthian leather” you would find in shitty American pseudo-luxury-cars of the 1970s!

Whenever I need to defend the Kotaku community against the Dark Forces of the Internet, I will bring up the “asshole dog” tag.
