  1. Ha!! Okay, I can't disagree with that.
  2. True, though not quite to the level of an Android device. I know of many that moved to an iPhone because they couldn't "figure out" an Android phone and are quite happy with how much easier the iPhone is to use, and there is nothing wrong with that. These same individuals would also never drive a manually-shifted car or build their own computers. They like that the phone essentially does it all for them with a click or two. This is how I perceive the majority of iPhone users. Obviously there are those like you (I assume you, since you mentioned jailbreaking) that like the phone for other reasons beyond the simplistic nature and do jailbreak it as soon as they can, but I am pretty sure the greater whole are in it for that ease of use. Then there are those that like being in that Apple bubble while everyone else is outside of it, and will buy an Apple devices sight and spec unseen, but that is a whole other thing. I don't hate Apple, their system and methods just don't appeal to me. I have no brand loyalty. I change phones about once a year and go towards what I like best at the time of purchase. I'm a huge tech nerd that likes getting his hands dirty and out of the big four, I am getting the dirtiest with Android.
  3. Unpaid body repair bill. Owner of body shop decided to return the car back to how it was before the repair.
  4. Apple devices are for people that want extremely easy to use (read: no learning curve whatsoever), simple, one-note designs, and a one-tiered system so learning one way is the only way. Not everyone wants to learn how to use, they just want to use. Apple devices are perfect for them. I like uniqueness. I like the abilty to tweak to my heart's content. I like not being trapped in a proprietary and closed-system bubble. I like being able to pick a device that suits my needs. I like building my own, etc. These reasons are why Apples devices have never been for me, but are perfect for those that just want to get in, hit start, and go.
  5. That's the first thing I thought when viewing that image. Good looking render.
  6. Congrats, old boy. I just got out of a 6 year (), so will have to live vicariously through you.
  7. It depends on the car. I think the Countach looks incomplete without the wing. I can go both ways, depending on the wing shape/height, with the Diablo. The Murci looks better without a wing, unless an SV. Gallardos look better without a wing, unless the SL. The ST wing, or any large/higher, I do not like. The 700 I prefer without a wing. Maybe a low-profile wing that follows the shape of the car might look good, but what has been seen so far looks bad. The wing must compliment the style and shape of the car. Many aftermarket wings don't even try to flow with the shape of the car, it just there. At least have the wing follow the contour of the rear-end.
  8. I was laughing at old girl that got a face full of seat. That's what I was thinking. He came out of nowhere, threw on the afterburners, and never looked back.
  9. I enjoyed it. Took my father with me and he enjoyed it too. It's a live-action cartoon for men. Seems like they all had a ball making this one even more so than the last. I've been watching all of these guys on the big screen since the 80s, so it's fun seeing them get together like this.
  10. When they showed that ass shot, I knew something was wrong.
  11. Yep. Those networks shit the bed some years ago and are only getting worse as time passes. "Reality" TV has completely fucked my enjoyment of television. I am not a Cadillac guy but that is a real nice example of one. I also wasn't expecting it to be on hydraulics. I just laughed at the way they setup up the whole shoot.
  12. I ask the same thing about Dressage.
  13. Nice, though, I would have preferred some other shots other than John's face the entire time.
  14. They most certainly do. Sad and amusing at the same time.
  15. And here I thought that Chatroulette fad died.
  16. Yep, this cars sounds nuts. It's just not the looker I hoped it would be.
  17. Here is a YouTube channel full of it. Enjoy
  18. Ha!! No need. It was my pleasure. Any other requests, just let me know.
