@BJ can't blame you for that.

And has vanished since! Still a few in France I suppose.

I see my cars ready

@pip-bip Funny how much they have in common. Peas in a pod. What people will do to pay less tax.

@pip-bip
Pretty sure the top is a Ford Aerostar.

I feel sorriest for my neighbour with the Defender TDi.

yeah? i feel like, with the price and reputation of diesel, i'd take the insurance money

@facw

"partnership"? I don't think so.

@pip-bip Gorgeous pic.

@pip-bip Night

@facw saw this today and suddenly these posts made sense to me

@pip-bip Boxy but they're good!

@Just-Jeepin I want to be mad at the dog for scraping off the corduroy, but I really can't.

@pip-bip There's a blue Fit in my town with wheels like that. I should tell the owner about this!

@Svend This is the correct reaction. Hard to believe these weren't big sellers, right?

@pip-bip mold the fenders and id be totally down for this

@pip-bip

I find this is all interesting to watch. It's clear that Musk is good at tackling technical issues.

But the problems Twitter has are basically social problems and how to manage them... and so far, it looks like he's not good at that kind of thing.

If this sinks Twitter, I don't really care. I feel that Twitter is responsible for dumbing-down the world.

Also, I thought from the start that Musk's impulsive nature got the better of him with Twitter. This will be a very expensive learning experience for him

And I'm saying that as someone who is a fan of much of what he has acheived.

But just because I've been a fan of him, doesn't mean I think he's without fault.

@ForSweden Right? I get that it's a meme, but I can comfortably say I've never had GI issues from eating at Taco Bell (not that I've had issues with any other chain, come to think of it).

@amoore100
The house I'm living in, my mother died in three and a half years ago.

@pip-bip I've seen that vehicles several times over the past a couple of weeks – most recently on last Saturday when I drove out from the parking spot in the mall near the campus. My cousin also applied to be a sales guy for this Wuling last month or so.

@Bylan-Hoarder-of-LS400-s Laguna isn't my favorite, but its still a iconic, twisty low-speed track with some great elevation change. Turn 9 is up there on my list of favorite individual corners.

@pip-bip Probably not much longer than an American sedan honestly…

@pip-bip yeah...I was watching qualy highlights and he was mentioned. I got really confused for a few seconds, then I saw the news that Albon was in hospital.

Williams better sh*tcan Latifi once and for all. To get out qualified by someone who's had way less time in the seat is ridiculous.

I'll be rooting for "of Vries" later today.

@SilentbutnotreallyDeadly @CB Per some of the comments on Twitter, there's a thin metal wall separating an evacuation passageway from the road. Not sure I buy that, when the car hits the wall sections look more like foamcore than metal.

@WilliamsSW
Ye', I know.
I just find it funny both were saying the other is doing it and they weren't, yet both were.
Just like BAE Systems (as it is now) and Boeing or Lockheed in Saudi giving back handers.
Both saying they were innocent and light but saying the other wasn't both found to be doing it.
Ex-staff and government ministers, etc... all saying, 'it's part of doing business in the middle east'. Lol.
It's all slight of hand, 'don't look at me, look where I'm pointing!'.

@pip-bip This is insane

@pip-bip

That ended way too soon. I wanted to see the aftermath once the smoke cleared. Thank god somebody grabbed the baby.

Good mornin.

@TheBarber @dogisbadob Boo

@ranwhenparked I really wonder what's going to happen when their economy finally collapses.

imbecile

@AuthiCooper1300 I think it was. The tub was so small as to not be much use. I daresay a few would have sold to British farmers and gamekeepers who would have used them for work; they got by with 90 single cab pickups for years.

I may be wrong, but I'm fairly certain that the 110 double cab didn't come along until the TDCi era, so 2007 at the earliest. That would make it ineligible for import under the 25 year rule, which makes me think that this one is likely a conversion.

@fintail China grew so quickly not because of their economic policy, but because they blocked Twitter

@tophercrowder said in OppoAfterDark.....Why Musk wanted Twitter:

@SilentbutnotreallyDeadly See thats the rub. On my very old Samsung, Twitter and Facebook are hard installed. I can't delete them, I can only disable them.

I remember having that problem. Fixed it by never buying another Samsung phone.

@Exage03040 That’s true, and it pretty much describes all social media.
(Present company excepted of course)

@Someoneatacura I guess I don't see how this gives him a market advantage. It's not one of his companies that is buying it, and even if it was, twitter and his other companies are completely disparate, and there are minimal barriers to entry for another platform to emerge (other than "everyones on twitter").
I can understand thinking maybe Musk is a bit unstable, but I'm not sure there is legal precedent for keeping someone from buying a company just because he's done other things that people don't like/are illegal. What if he wanted to buy a 7-11? I understand twitter is different than a 7-11, but it's not currently regulated like a utility, so in the SEC's eyes, I don't think it's any different than a 7-11 other than instead of selling Slurpies, they sell advertising.

@pip-bip noice euro muscle

@tophercrowder I think it will be at an unrealistic 'value'. Fuck the stock market. Work for a living.

@pip-bip Euro beat training!

@WBizarre not on most of them, they don’t. They’re just tacked-on plastic.

@davesaddiction Just be careful sometimes with NBC's sibling: CNBC. Sometimes they try to cover a subject and interview the worst possible people for it.

In recent months CNBC tried to explain the trucker shortage, but somehow managed to interview only trucking company owners and other reporters.

Their conclusion for the trucker shortage was "trucks are expensive, last only three years and it's hard to find someone who wants to drive one".

But if you ask a trucker they're like "I'm not going to sit at a port all day just so I get a check at the end of the week that says that I owe my employer."

Also, that trucks last only three years thing still cracks me up. lol

@pip-bip gonna be a wierd season again...didnt even make it to fp1 before stuff went wrong
still always good to see hulkenberg again

@pip-bip I literally jumped back in my chair when i saw that fonda

@awesomeaustinv no emissions controls required, it’s not a vehicle

@415s30 true.

@Highlander said in Don’t read the comments:

How can you move out of the way if you see this badge on the back of a car, doesn't that imply that the car is already in front of you?

It must be in the sense of "if you can see this you are too close", given the possibility of phantom braking...

@SmallScaleSydney I'd bet on it. The dude was a bit of a trainwreck off the pitch.

@pip-bip casual war crimes are just another Saturday for Putler

@chariotoflove
I think that one's blocked...for borrowing.

@gettingoldercarguy said in wtf? (nsfw-ish):

@pip-bip He properly ejaculated

@urambo-tauro I don't speak Dutch but I would guess the louder voice you can hear I would assume is the guy in the white cap saying things helping lining up the driver of the rig

@pip-bip Real talk.

@just-jeepin Kinda looks like a biodegradable version of those plastic soda can rings...

And thanks for the Nitter link! I don't tweet, but I'm going to try this for viewing posts. Looks good so far! I like the dark theme too

@pip-bip I'm trying to figure out HOW they did that... The video's sped up, so we're not getting a good sense of how slow the driver is actually going. Maybe he's feeling for the moment that the rear wheel starts to dip in order to know when to stop and pull forward again.

@pip-bip
Being pulled by a D-Max.
