Wind tunnel tests can have positive effects on a design too. I'd argue that the Camaro is just an example of bad design in general. 😉 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RQJ_F9ADV2Y

It’s exactly what I thought it would be and I love it. I can’t think of any other car that offers the same level of value for that price. Take my money!

Nintendo just announced a Labo VR kit, doing kinda what I described. Obviously it's not meant for serious VR gaming, but it's so fun to see how creative Nintendo is getting with the Labo kits. Maybe not for the current generation of the Switch …

I've never experienced really bad jet-lag, but I've heard from several sources that swear by an approach to avoid it completely. The idea is to use food to get your body in sync with the new time zone. Unfortunately it doesn't sound easy. To …

> It begs the question: do the Mario and Zelda games inhabit the same universe? I'm not sure, but if they do it's probably now called the Bowserverse. https://twitter.com/NintendoAmerica/status/1098666321473024000 Doug Bowser will be the new …

Someone did a side-by-side comparison to the original that answered my question about the Mario cameos. Pretty cool to see! https://youtu.be/mctma5_Z7G0

> What features were you looking for that August didn’t provide? I just re-read the specs and it looks like the August Pro + Connect Wi-Fi Bridge gives me everything I want. I suppose what made me hesitant was not knowing how well the …

You know, I ended up shying away from the idea. 🙁It felt like the product I was looking for doesn't yet exist. I think the latest generation August lock comes the closest. Maybe the next generation will be the one that wins me over. Is the …

> Dude....you and your darned thread 😝 > Mamiya M645 1000s looks like a great creative tool and I could probably be out the door for under $600. I'm new to this and I've already gone down the path of searching for medium format film cameras. I'm …

That’s awesome! Do you remember which film stock was used? The green is so vibrant! I read that Kodak recently rereleased Ektachrome. I just checked The Darkroom Lab (where I got my film developed) and it looks like they will develope and mount …

The maker interface is super fun. It also encourages you to play the sample levels since you have beat the levels in order to unlock building elements. There are a ton of tutorial videos on YouTube, but here’s one just to give you an …

I'm going on a quick weekend trip soon for my birthday and I'd like to bring the film camera. Does anybody have tips on how to travel with film? Ideally I'd like to be somewhat organized when dealing with the used and unused undeveloped …

I tend to agree... until Tesla proved they make very good cars. I don't own one, but I would probably just buy one if I had the means. 😀

I saw @pixelhalloffame talk about the announcement of Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening: https://www.cake.co/conversations/pCkQRqd/legend-of-zelda-links-awakening-coming-to-the-switch It led me to find out that Nintendo also announced Super Mario …

It seems that the new Dog Mode stole all the hype from the also announced Sentry Mode. From this Verge article: > If the Tesla detects a person leaning on it, for example, it’ll count that as a minimal threat, switch into an Alert state, and …

@overlander: Do you have any insight to these questions? If the ratings aren't maintained by an official authority what about the trails themselves? Is it all done via by volunteers? I'm trying to understand how much trust I can put into the …

Ok this is too small for your needs, but how fun does this look?! https://www.autoblog.com/2019/02/13/suzuki-jimny-black-bison-wald-conversion/

Looks like the investment from Amazon is confirmed! Great news. https://www.nytimes.com/2019/02/15/business/rivian-amazon.html

In terms of interior space, I think you need to compare the F150 to the RAM 1500 crew cab. The dimensions are much closer give or a take a couple of inches. My uncle has owned several F150s and my brother has had a RAM 2500 for 10 years until he …

I know you said you are looking at used cars, but what about the new RAM 1500 with the off-road package? MotorTrend named it 2019 truck of the year. I'm assuming even a 1 or 2 year old Tacoma or 4Runner is still pricey. My brother just bought a new …

Yeah this looks awesome! I can't wait. Did you ever play Oceanhorn for iOS? The graphics remind me of that, and obviously Oceanhorn is heavily inspired by Zelda. https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/oceanhorn/id708196645 I spotted two cameos from the …

Crazy! Did you see the video NVIDIA created to show off their face generating tech? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bIVU8UuHPKI The face may not represent an actual person, but I wonder what the chances are that somebody does look exactly like …

Yeah that sounds amazing! I definitely want to work up from half day trips to over-nighters with the kids! I can't wait for that.

That's amazing! But all I can think of right now is "OMG the amount of dog hair that is getting all over those beautiful seats!" and "AHHHHH their paws are going to scratch the center console!"

Wow that is epic! Now I wish I had another vehicle to attempt this stuff with. I'd be afraid of not being able to pickup my kids from school after beating up my car in Moab. 😂
