I think one of the horribly fascinating things about the modern American fascist movement is its strong preference for “the ring of falsity.” I’m thinking specifically about those disgusting “Q” freaks. A central part of any “Q” theory is the insanely unbelievable part, e.g., the international pedophile ring? Not…

Just curious, since there’s no driveshaft, why is there this big uncomfortable hump between the front seats? I was really hoping that one of the side-effects from automobile electrification would be the return of the open comfortable front bench seat. I know that you can use the longitudinal floor hump as a…

Screaming “Face down on the asphalt!” at a six-year-old is not a “mistaken encounter.”

I was a car nut when I was a little kid. My favorite toys were Matchbox cars. When we’d go to the grocery store I’d make a bee-line to the magazine counter and absorb as much of Road & Track and Car & Driver as I could.

Why the Hell did the cops wait until days later to arrest the fascist rioters? Have you ever seen a BLM protest where the police waited a couple days before making arrests? Why didn’t the Capitol police arrest the coup participants on the spot, so they could go through their pockets and check out their illegal weapons,…

Maybe BLM should put the Nazi asshole Hinckley’s theory to the test. They should hold another demonstration, and see if the D.C. cops are actually kinder ‘n’ gentler toward all protestors these days, or if instead they just prefer pro-Klan protestors to pro-civil-rights protestors.

Has it occurred to you that if the D.C. courts indict the Nazi swine today, the illiterate racist pig will pardon them all? Whereas if they put it off until the 21st of January, they can lock all those shitballs up for nice long sentences?

Shoot them while they’re still in the water, before they crawl up on the dock; they are carrying the plague.

Since 2000 my daily driver has been one of the four Miatas I bought used.

Oh jeez, Cisco. Here’s my crime!

A 32-year-old old version of AutoCAD (Release 10) came with a 3d drawing of a Beetle in .dwg format as a sample. Here it is in wireframe mode:

Chicken thighs taste better than chicken breasts, everybody knows that. If one of these fast-food joints markets a chicken sandwich with boneless chicken thighs, it will sweep the market.

What would it take to get me in an EV?  Price of batteries goes down by 60%.

That’s a pretty good point. The car itself was practical, but the blithe neglect of the public charging infrastructure was another facet of the GM attitude of “we really, really don’t want to build this kind of car.”

Why is the dealer [pulling yet another shitty trick on their death enemies, I mean their paying customers] even when [those people are their paying customers, for crying out loud!]? Beacuse they don’t know any other way to be. As soon as you, the potential customer, set foot on dealership property, they see you coming…

It’s going to take the equivalent of a Tesla Co. for that to happen. Just like there wasn’t a successful electric car until there was a manufacturer that made only electric cars, for us to be able to buy a really good cheap, practical basic car, there will have to be a manufacturer which only makes a cheap, practical…

5500 RPM at 70? What car is that? Makes a Miata seem like a Coupe de Ville.

It does?!? You’re kidding! I know big-screen infotainment panels suck, but I didn’t know they sucked that bad. I mean, you’d expect a Tesla, e.g. the rolling endless betatest, to be kind of flaky, it’s part of the charm, but a Honda? They can’t even make a teevee screen in a Honda work properly?
