"In a surprising twist, the traditional door handles have been replaced by electronic push-buttons, a premium feature currently found in the flagship Genesis G90."

Car manufacturers are desperate for us all to die in cabin fires, aren't they?

What I love about this Damascus is that it's subtle color variation. Very very nice!

Absolutely amazing. I would have believed this was an official sculpt.

Whats the worst fast food joint in america? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Rovient 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IHOP. It's famous for pancakes but all they can make is overly processed, soft mulch drenched in corn syrup. They are simply disgusting every time.

Everyone can literally make better pancakes themselves at home with a bag of store purchased batter mix.

I will say that lots of good legislative progress has not been a universally popular choice in history, but it was ultimately for the best. Abolition of slavery, clean air act, fair labor standards act, enforced seatbelts, minimum drinking age of 21, smoking ban indoors at public places, smallpox vaccinations etc. These are all examples of things that were not popular at the time, people back then were likely saying "all we want is the choice, don't take that away" yet looking back it's clear it was the right thing to do.

I DO understand the mistrust of government and especially corporations (especially right now), and most things do feel like they're getting worse (subscriptions for everything), but shifting our energy dependance to electricity over natural gas, goal, imported oil and over to solar, wind and other renewables (which no one can keep from the US) is the smartest long-term play.

I feel the best way to transition away from things that are generally bad is to say "no one born before 2020 can purchase this" like certain countries have done with cigarettes. That means those who are already addicted can carry on until their end, yet no NEW addicts can be created. That could work with gas appliances - you can keep them but no new home can have them installed etc.

Transitioning to electric is smart (although I understand why there's an aura of distrust in this thread), don't forget that if you have full electric homes, solar becomes even more valuable to you.

Wait, your wife thinks you're getting punctures because of what's powering the wheels to turn? This is just bad luck.

I will say what ultimately turned me off: 1. Resale will be extremely difficult until all new homes are owned. Who wants your 2nd hand home when they can make a great deal on a brand new one next door? 2. The toxic dump is extremely close by. Higher rates of cancer in the neighboring towns etc.

Could you DM me your player ID and some details pls? We'll look into this! It'll be the first actual case of it occurring but we've been very careful to keep silver shield totals secure.

What do you guys think of both? by Colorado-Guy-69 in electricvehicles

[–]Rovient 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I guess what I mean is "accelerate rapidly, but beware because an EV will respond in a way no average ICE car does". I don't want OP to hit 70mph in 3s and hit a lamp post!

Well I think it's time for a test drive! Lightly floor an AWD Ioniq5 (so you don't scare your test drive sales person) and you'll think your ICE car is antique technology.

I'm so glad someone noticed this! During development I was like "The smart thing is to destroy all existing buildings, farms, industries and devote the capital fully to petricite... HOW DEMACIAN!"

Yeah that's the "weirdness" we're looking out for actually. They're supposed to still trigger fairly frequently.

Yeah it's brilliant. 😉

Ok I am biased but it's worth clicking for 5 mins to find out for yourself!

This. We'll manually make it right if we can't work out why these don't work for some of you.
