I wouldn't go diesel if I were you. Here in (Western in any case) Europe they started to ban diesels from 10 years old on in some cities and taxes on the vehicles and diesel are rapidly increasing. Everybody is selling their diesels (while they were the hype 15 years ago and everybody sold their ga...

I have never been able to follow reddit threads. Doesn't lend itself well to long term discussion, just spur of the moment type stuff.

What's funny and sad is that nobody bats an eye that Darth Cheeto **allegedly** had an affair with a porn star right after his wife gave birth to his son.

America, 2018!

Recently – or the last months - cycling is my main interest beside work photography and computer stuff. Here's a picture spam of the last 3 months :) https://i.imgur.com/dETABqz.jpg https://i.imgur.com/6ZM8GJs.jpg https://i.imgur.com/gTqHGEo.jpg https://i.imgur.com/mEJPm5i.jpg https://i.imgur.com/K...

This is what is offered in the US at the moment:

We have a similar situation in Sweden, so I'm driving a diesel as well. Definitely frugal but it sounds like a tractor. In the wake of dieselgate, the disparity between what the consumers crave (cheap, long range EVs) and what car manufacturers offer is huge. If I was in the market for a car today,...

Yes, Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays. Hope you eat plenty of good food and steer clear of family conflicts.

So does anybody around here drive a diesel car? The market in the USA for diesel cars is very small (and even smaller since the VW debacle), but I’ve been looking at the Chevy Cruse diesel. Gets about the same mileage as a hybrid, but with better power and no batteries. I’m intrigued.

I don't like them , they sound nice but the travel is too short , far far too short . I agree with this, but do have to admit to the original thesis. It is the best laptop keyboard, thereby "my favorite". Still ass compared to a full-travel, mech board. However, due the the tactility, much more com...

Laptop keyboards... :? :evil: https://i.imgur.com/kqOrJgg.jpg This is my inevitable destination, but I would like to ditch the laptop keyboard part altogether and go with a Microsoft Surface clone that has them Intel 8th generation quad-core, low voltage processors I’ve heard so much about and cost...

Not bad, price wise. I was expecting something like $200.

I have had a few Rollermice over the years and never had to worry about crappy software. Everything was part if the device firmware. Not that might be different for this mouse, but the Rollermice always worked fine.

Yes, it might be near impossible to create a short travel keyboard that doesn’t feel like typing on a wall after awhile.

Well, I’m simply referring to laptop keyboards available on the market now. I am crossing my fingers that the new Chromebook Pixel will not be as bad as the Macbook Pro keyboard as I plan on purchasing one after the holidays. I have high hopes for it and its keyboard. Also I don't think there is an...

Well, I’m simply referring to laptop keyboards available on the market now.

I find it much harsher than the earlier gen Macbook keyboards, like the 2014. The low travel means that I always bottom out hard, and it's not as cushioned as the domes under 2014's keyboard. I'm worried that excessive use of it will end up hurting my hands. I had a new Macbook Pro from work and I ...

I've just watched this movie "Detroit"(2017), it tells a story about the civil unrest in Detroit in late 1960s. The movie addresses racism against African Americans, civil right violation, police brutality, using national guards to suppress people, ect., so the 60s isn't all about Beatles or Hippie...

Yep I totally agree. The newest macbook pro keyboard is fantastic. Gen 1 butterfly apple switches were kind of mediocre but the latest revision is the best I have tried. I love how tactile they are It’s more so the feeling of tactility that it gives you. I think what sells it to me is the lightness...

Never thought I would type that sentence. And I’m swear that I’m not trolling. But it’s true. When compared to all the other laptop keyboards out there, I type faster and more accurate on the newish butterfly MacBook keyboard. I have tried the latest Dell business and Thinkpad laptop keyboards, gene...

Start a cam show. You probably don’t even need to improve your looks. There is a fetish for every body type.

My guess is the Twitter employee probably just figured out his account password. It’s probably his birthday or the season of the Apprentice that had the best ratings or something stupidly simple like that.

Great art there, seebart. Love it.

So some Twitter employee shut down Darth Cheeto’s Twitter account on their last day of work.

Now there’s a true American hero.

Darth Cheeto took money from Russian oligarchs and banks, laundered it through offshore accounts, bought some real estate, and revived his business. They own him and could reveal it all. That’s why he is so hesitent to bash the Russians and hangs out with so many people that have shady relationship...

Things are really heating up! I believe the first indictments are the start of Season 3, with Season 1 being the FBI investigation and ending with the Comey firing. And Season 2 starting with the Mueller appointment. My biggest fear is that Darth Cheeto fires Mueller and he pardons all his cronies a...

Is Darth Cheeto done torturing that poor widow of the soldier yet? Can I stick my head out of the foxhole and check the news again? No I believe that is still ongoing...a new lower low when everyone though that wasn't possible. :o :roll: Even Fox News poll has Darth Cheeto’s approval below 40%. So ...

Too bad this thread is "dead", it's not there isn't anything going on. The thread is dead because it has become too embarrassing to even acknowledge what is going on in Washington. Thanks for the Russian flag idea, I screen T-shirts as a hobby sometimes, that will make a good one. Is Darth Cheeto d...

Translation : why not both ? :) Wrong translation, I think ;) My own translation of the Oracle's advice: follow your inner voice, not the public opinion. Or: go for Vespa, even if you are going to make a fool of yourself :lol: That is another possible translation. But my inner voice is also telling...

That's what I read as well, because both will please me. Unfortunately, I only have space for one.

Need some life advice. Should I buy a Vespa or a motorcycle? Motorcycle is cooler and garners more respect, but my heart seems set on owning a Vespa and it's more convenient. Thoughts, Oracle?

I saw it. Saw some familiar faces as well (the typewriter enthusiasts, not the celebrities). I liked it. Don't think typewriters are gong to make a comeback, though. We just like our electronics too much.

Whoa whoa whoa whoa. How could you not like Arnold? What's wrong with you? Oh jeez come on, first time I've seen you act a bit childish here Viva. Of course I can not like the guy. Why not?!? I mean I don't hate him or anything, he's a has-been action-star /ex-governor who married into the Kennedy'...
