Hah, I supposed I'd like 'em too. There's more guitars than people to buy them, and the people who buy for wall hangers usually ended up selling them for a third of their original price after a few years, giving new players a

Ehhh, some guitar hoarders just like the different variations. Some actually understand the differences between guitars and have different ones for different sounds. Most studios have at least five different electric guitars not to show off

Liability. If someone installs the battery or wiring harness incorrectly there's any number of things that could go wrong. You don't want to be sued over a battery fire if someone shortcuts wiring or venting things properly. There

I have a Pentel PS315 that's older than I am and it's basically the only pencil I've used for the last fifteen years. The 205 and 207 they still make aren't as good as any of the sliding sleeves from the 1970s or 1980s.

As far as I know they still don't sell a wiring harness or battery for it, though. So you either have to yoink parts from a dead Mach-E or F-150 Lightning or adapt existing parts to poorly suit the conversion. They've been selling

No. Definitely not. The drivetrains swap has made them simpler in that regard. But ever changing and increasing safety standards mean that a single bodystyle costs hundredss of millions of dollars to develop. Mostly caused by SUVs and CUVs

Bring expanding spray foam with you and fill in the speaker grille and muffle or mute the sound. Other people will greatly appreciate it and the employees most likely won't care until it comes time for inspection from corporate or stat

The problem isn't the users. It's usually the management. Since these public infrastructure problems always become political weapons those managing try to appease the largest amount of people possible from the start instead of sca

Or instead of doing that, just go to smaller engine sizes that force slower driving due to lower power and adjust thr throttle response. Most cars have engines that are way too damn powerful for what's needed (why does a Hyundai i30 ne

Rotoscoping is directly tracing from film frame by frame. Most of the time animators instead use what are called reference key poses. For extremely stylized characters it can be difficult if not impossible to use rotoscoping for complex seq

I agree that society doesn't believe this. But I disagree on your explanation as to why. The biggest reason why people don't believe this is because they have no idea as to the amount of work that's being done. If you hear a

Nuking effectively everything except the Touareg, Tiguan, Atlas, Taos, Q7, Q8, and the entire Porsche lineup in the US has done them no favours. The Golf is dead, New Beetle is dead, Passat is dead, the A5 is being neglected, the A8 is just

The rewards system for many games has been horribly screwed up. Constant small rewards are common on most mobile games, rather than the segmented rewards of old games where often the more effort was required the bigger the reward. The kids

One of the experiences that formed my hatred of Snap was when trying to install Notepad++ while trying to find a worthwhile editor to migrate to. Running via WINE it was 20.6MB installed, and even WINE itself was 1.2GB, but that 1.2GB was s

Well part of that is that what we consider "Roman" culture and history is actually the culture and history of hundreds of societies that the Romans became administrators of. That's one reason why there were so many places lik

It's a combination of desperation, fear, and willful ignorance (one might even say self-induced stupidity). You've had forty years of propaganda at this point, and the old management who designed that propaganda for their follower

My car is front-biased AWD and is very predictable in the heavy rains we have here during winter that can leave an inch or more of standing water on the roads. Plus I grew up driving older cars that didn't even have ABS, let alone TCS.

Starting my current car is always a pain in the ass that takes at least a minute. Get in the car, put the seatbelt on first so it doesn't complain, push the Start/Stop Engine button, immediately turn off the traction control and t

No they didn't. The most popular form factor for phones before the iPhone was the thick flipphone, because it was easier to hold and use in one hand. Second most popular right before the iPhone's introduction was likely the slide

Making the lens thinner is just making the phone more visually appealing instead of actually improving capability at all. Which you could do by just... Making the back of the phone convex so that the lense doesn't protrude in the first

Environmentally friendly my ass. Any minor damage and the car will be toast because the insurance company will total it. Even if it gets back on the road it'll have a salvage title, something that's poison to a car and ensures tha
