The only thing I’m concerned with is being correct

Started a KH1 play-through with my kids. Wonderland, Deep Jungle, and Atlantica all annoyed them because it was “boring” watching me navigate Mind you. They’re under 6 years old. People don’t want to engage above a six year olds attention span

estoy viendo que hay gente que está abandonando KH1 en el país de las maravillas y al ver el motivo empiezo a comprender por qué hemos acabado con juegos como Lobezno. Que yo sé que el 1 es el más confuso de todos, pero no sé no lo es tanto, da miedo el asunto

I really have to wonder what the interior charge space and passenger compartment specs are between the two.

These pictures from Top Gear's review of the Mini Countryman genuinely make me sad. They make an original Range Rover look like a safe slow vehicle, a starter car.

BREAKING NEWS: The tire industry recommends you always buy 4 tires, not 1-3. Also, my realtor just told me it’s a great time to buy a home and my barber thinks I need a haircut. Thought y’all should know.

I’m really REALLY curious on the BOM cost of mechanical vs electrical windows + whatever ED&T is required. Like is it legitimate or was it an exceptionally interesting marketing technique

Millennials don’t want to jump on a call. We just want to get something done and realized begrudgingly that phone calls and vocal collaboration are actually effective
😕@judoodlesSep 20
i dont understand why milennials and boomers want to Jump Into A Call over everything . like why cant this just be a fucking email!!!!

The crazy thing about Pokemon cards is that it doesn’t seem like anyone actually plays the game. I never see anyone talking about sick decks or tournaments or theorycrafting. Just about flipping the product or cracking packs and encasing the chase cards in slabs.

Pretty interesting Forbes interview with RJ Scaringe. A few things stood out to me: Rivian isn’t trying to become “another Tesla.” RJ’s strategy seems pretty clear: • R1 built the brand • R2 expands the customer base • Software and autonomy become bigger parts of the story over time • Rivian keeps its own identity around adventure, SUVs and trucks He also makes a good point that the EV market still needs more variety — more price points, more body styles, and more products people actually want. That’s where R2 really matters. My take: Tesla doesn’t need to lose for Rivian to win. The U.S. EV market is big enough for another major player, and I think Rivian is slowly building a very different path to get there. $RIVN youtu.be/gR8b6MqIonM

The knockoff Q7 is now a knockoff Mazda that’s too busy
Car Industry Analysis@lovecarindustryJul 14
The DS Nº7 replaces the DS 7. It is bigger and uses a lot of design elements from the brand’s flagship, the DS Nº8. The real question is whether it is a game changer or not. DS needs competitive cars to beat the semi-premium/premium Chinese models. Is it more of the same?

You're telling me that government censorship didn't stop at the things we thought were icky and is now steamrolling everything? Wow, I can't believe this, if only someone had been telling us this the whole time

@ThafnineJul 4
so the government is planning MANDATORY CHANGES to how content is discovered on YouTube in the UK. - they want YouTube to prioritise mainstream broadcasters like BBC, ITV and Channel 4 over user created content with a 'prominence regime' this is absolutely insane and is going to severely affect everyone british youtuber should this go through. YouTube have started a campaign to fight this, but we need your help to ensure this doesn't go through like this, since this could RUIN the site

The Slate conversation is just demonstrating the same thing the Alibaba wheel conversation demonstrated about consumers

So apparently there’s another (2019) Suburban account on here that’s NOT me and is posting extremely bad content on here, I’m not gonna show the tweet I saw for obvious reasons but it’s not good at all and that account should be reported and hopefully suspended very quickly

Why would manufacturers want to sell directly really? EVs are one thing because the dealers don’t really want to sell. Aside though the manufacturers have it good with dealers.

@JulieChangREMar 13
Something is very broken Time for manufacturers to sell direct consumers. They are selling a product. Doesn’t matter which dealer you buy it from or where

I love ethical littering (apple cores, banana peels, my broken jeep, etc.), you can just leave it on the side of the road and it will give back to nature, it’s beautiful.

This is a prevalent thing in tires. There’s alot of infrastructure and intentional planning that goes into simulation being useful when compared to the cost (and time) of just making the tires Groups like GM Motorsport’s Tire Team led by Heather Bobbitt push those boundaries

Replying to @faraz_r_khan
we we figured it wasn’t worth the time to try to run simulations on something like this when we could literally just throw it in the car and run it till it breaks We got the same failure mode basically every time after about 20 hours of race time, In this application, I really didn’t care for the 3-D printed solution. It looks cool, but I think that there were better places to save weight in this application personally It was so cool to do very fun to see it working
