Until I got interested in and purchased an RS, I didn’t even know Ford as anything other than stupidly oversized suburb-mobiles, American muscle, and F150. Turns out Ford has been making cool cars for decades in Europe! So I’d say that observation is true that Ford US feels like they have no concept of small cool…

You forgot Jewish and Marxist! “Globalist Jewish Feminist Marxist conspiracy.”

No idea how it all works, but for reference the Focus RS is assembled in Germany with parts made in Spain among other places.

No, no I wouldn’t. I actually believe that a functioning society is built around interconnected support. In this case it’s redistribution of wealth via taxes, and that includes supporting scrubs in the middle of nowhere getting flooded, even if it costs disproportionately more to support them than they pay in. I don’t…

Alright, sounds good. Just give us back the appropriate portion of our tax money then. Why should NY fund anywhere else?

Spiteful little shit wants to use this as a bargaining chip against Schumer. Dude’s willing to hold our entire region and possible economy hostage. If it fails, he’ll just point fingers at the dems and try to smear shit on them

The brain has a way of shutting the whole thing down when presented with undesired information

Too real

Seriously, what’s stopping us?

Oh hey, this looks like Russia

Holy crap! That movies cover just reminded me I had the Gameboy Darkman video game! Totally forgot about it, but I remember it being fun

Is it still around? I sometimes travel through those parts

Oh, cool. That sounds pretty chill - the sort of place that teens could go to to escape the outside world and find like-minded peers. From how you’re describing your idea it sounds to me almost like more of a community center with a computer/gaming-oriented slant.

I dig the classes idea. I think adding something more to LAN Centers beyond just a computer to game on could be a huge draw.

LAN Centers were awesome when the lot of us couldn’t afford high-end gaming PCs (defined as a PC having a 3D accelerator), the Internet was non accessible or exceptionally slow, and networking at home was a pain. I am not sure it’s as interesting now given the ubiquity of decently powerful hardware with relatively…

Maybe I’ll sit down and go through the lot then!

Yeah, those are neat. Although can those be had in manual in the US? Looks like a manual Panamera does exist, but it might be Euro-only

Did it actually end? I kinda got lost around episode 200-ish (?), and never went back. They kept doing side-arcs and totally unrelated shenanigans for like 20-30 episodes at a time at that point.

Yeah, I imagine there’s a rush since such a big deal was made about this problem by everyone. Hopefully they sort it out soon enough

Yep, that’s precisely what I got from the tech advisor. He told me no ETA on parts, but once they came in they would call me to get the rest of the work done. I wonder if there are other parts that may be in short supply, because both the head and non-head versions of the repair kit do include a bunch more parts…
