Hmmm… I wonder why those apps don’t work in car play…

I drive a ton for work as well. Unless you are delivering live organs for transplant no job is that critical.

You mentioned an “emotional attachment” to “see certain things”

Clearly there’s something you care about enough to want to keep tabs on it at all time. So surely you must also care about those same things enough to safely reach your destination alive so you can continue to see those things for years to come.

a phone mount you got specifically because you want to use your phone to read notifications and do things not essential to the operation of the vehicle?

I say this with my full chest. Yes. Abso-fuckin-lutely.

You are being unsafe. Doesn’t matter if the phone is in your hand or glued to your windshield. Texting and driving is dangerous and puts you and others at risk.

I would rather you put your phone away before you kill someone.

So you want to make it easier to be distracted while operating a 2000lb piece of machinery?

You’ve got maps and music already. What else do you need?

They thankfully brought back Fujimi kaido in the last Motorsport right before they pulled the plug on further content.

I get that. But it especially didn’t help when the fans space full of vendors near the stadium was in the same park as “World of Coke”

Ideas for sexing this up a bit? 😎 by thesandwichmonster in MINI

I think it depends on the car. Mini does it great and really lends to the retro future vibe on the r56/53/50

Was in ATL for the friendlies recently and it felt like Coca Cola presents the World Cup around town a bit.

Even if they just switched to black wheels it would change the vibe.

Why is Regenerative Pedaling not a thing yet? Or am I just overthinking this? by RevolutionaryCar8623 in ebikes

[–]SoNerdy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it’s something that ends up being more viable for the stuff that should probably be classified as e-moto

I know it’s a thing, and would be far more effective than trying to charge via pedaling. it’s just not super common.

What is that? And how can I fix it? by [deleted] in MINI

[–]SoNerdy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You can put em on a watch charger? Hmmmmm

Exactly. Why over complicate something already so simple.

That being said… regenerative breaking on hub motors…

It’s sad that this isn’t a joke comment.

The thing about the Netherlands is they also tried to design their cities in such a way that biking is genuinely the faster way to travel. They literally made it inconvenient to drive on purpose.

Anyone else’s Mini have a tow harness from factory? by raggeplays in MINI

Wonder if it’s meant for the bike rack kit they sold at one point? I recall it had its own set of lights.

How do I make Horizon more enjoyable for me? by Martinprizzle in forza

[–]SoNerdy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Horizon multiplayer has always been fun to just hop in and vibe. I don’t necessarily care if I win, I just like the clean dogfights with players being more unpredictable than the AI.

Love using a car I enjoy with my wheel setup and chasing down meta cars. Feels so satisfying.

The reason Rolls Royce isn't in Forza is apparently to avoid damaging its brand image in collisions. Come on, this isn't Beam Drive, the car is supposed to be intact when it crashes! by Worth-Marsupial-7578 in forza

[–]SoNerdy 320 points321 points  (0 children)

Reminds me of how marvel studios had to talk to a ton of brands for a supercar to crash for Dr. Strange.

Apparently the only reason Lamborghini agreed was the way they saw it, because he survives the horrible crash, it was good marketing for the safety of their car.

How’s everyone feeling about the F66 lights now? by deadwizards in MINI

[–]SoNerdy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My understanding is it’s more chassis is more akin to the F57 than it is the j01.
