    It’s a bit of a cynical worldview, but I say the reason “people” want it is more reason for invasive security designed to track you down and make sure you’re participating in society. Nothing in the last decade that’s moved from physical to digital form has been because it’s better for the public as the first reason.

    Firth, Serd, Thirkond, Fournd, Ferrd, and Sindst.

    These make up the Unholy Sextuplet.

    It’s a lot harder for someone to falsify your physical driver’s license or federal identification is the thing. Digitally, anything can be spoofed. And anything can be stolen if it’s not on an isolated machine. There are people who’ve already managed to spoof IMEI keys and break into secure cell networks, and

    The fuck is even the point of the rear window? At that point just delete it so you can cheat taxes by saying this is a panel van.

    What’s funny is the trim’s straighter on the Yugo and the paint’s in better condition. You can see the half-assed waviness of a paint respray on the GTO’s nose, a common problem because the Bunkie Beak racks up paint chips like nothing else. Meanwhile the Yugo’s still rocking the original paint.

    So they’re inciting a person to stop in the middle of the road and check the notification, assuming the person won’t ignore the notification entirely.

    Modern stupidity compounds itself.

    That’s honestly fascinating. The oldest one I’ve ever been in both the front and back of was the old ‘70s brownstone style ones. I never knew the double arch franchise restaurants from the ‘60s had enough freedom to build actual basements.

    I’m slightly more fascinated by the fact that your McDonald’s... Had a basement? Was this an existing building they retrofitted into a McDonald’s?

    I guess this explains why Tatsuya drove Blackbird. He was supposed to be a doctor flush with money. A 930 911 Turbo would’ve been an expensive ass new car in 1989 when he first got it at over $160,000 when adjusted for inflation. That’s almost as much as Ishida’s Testarossa at $181,000.

    I’ve had people do that same turnaround to me when asking me about what to get. I’ve just defaulted to saying. If you go for the SUV over the minivan you don’t have a space problem like you say. You have an image problem.”

    I know your pain, friend.
    I know your pain.

    For reference I recommended the Honda Element, but... The Rogue won due to previous ownership of a Maxima from over a decade earlier, before Nissan sucked.

    Typically higher amperage rating and higher voltage for fast charging, and with separate failsafes from the main circuit built into the unit. The voltage for a BS 1363 plug may be the same as the J1772 charging plug at 240V, but the amperage is way different. The former only supports thirteen amps max, while the

    Amateur driver at best

    So much shit that’s a fundamentally bad idea and is actively harmful has become the norm.

    You have to realize that corporations size up what’s a bad outcome for the public versus what’s a good outcome for the corporation. Controlling or at least influence people’s movement and schedules is good for the corporation, so

    Or wearing cool ass hats all the time.

    Even Barbie is not immune to the trend of the angry looking car. Cover it up with pegasus wings and rainbow colours all you want, you’re just pissing it off more.

    One thing that they don’t teach the police officers are basic physics. The volume of air inside the tire expands as it gets hotter. If I remember the formula is 10:1 for °F:PSI until you get to 160°F. This is why racing teams purposely underinflate their tires, knowing they’ll heat up and expand.

    The shapes are actually a return to ‘90s organic-inspired simplicity, and I am all for that. We’re hitting Spanish Baroque levels of complexity in vehicle design, and it’s ugly as hell because they can’t visually balance things out due to size constraints.

    “What updates do you want to do to the Mini?”
    “Yes.”
    “I-- ... Well alright then.”

    The Lamborghini affected seems to be the GRT Grasser number 19. I don’t know who was driving at that time, but their team is composed of actual career drivers.

    The Mercedes is the Winward Racing number 57. Russell Ward was driving at that time, and as far as I can tell he’s a gentleman driver. He definitely contributed
