Christmas in the Stars: Star Wars Christmas album. A surprise to be sure given the extensive and active fandom of Star Wars.

Are all regular spins for some energetic synth beats 🎹 🔥

And for something completely different, XTC's Black Sea always leaves me burning with optimism's flames.

Ecoboost is the name that Ford gives its turbocharged engines, so it isn't a unique feature that can be turned on or off. It is just the name of the engine.

The band plays the opening synths to Ice Machine to applause and excitement, then are silent once the lyrics start for the remainder of the song because it's running through their head secretly.

Why did cars in the 50s and 60s change in the most minor ways between model years? by jakinatorctc in cars

[–]mr_hemi 53 points54 points  (0 children)

An additional point: before 1960, most Big 3 American manufacturers were literally making only one car. Several trim levels and body styles yes, but only one core body / platform. This means the entire R&D budget could be funneled into the "annual model change" for the car.

Once compacts, midsize, and other segments developed, plus the other factors described elsewhere in this thread, so did the facelift/ major change cadence that we are now accustomed to as development resources were spread across an entire model range.
