I won't be surprised if within the next decade the only cars for sale that are purely combustion are sports cars

We had a pretty cold winter last year and the lantern fly population was significantly reduced from where it was at in 2023 and 2024. I hope it's not a coincidence.

Kirby Air Riders is really fun and it feels so weird playing a game that feel exactly like smash brothers until you actually get to the gameplay

I was talking with my Fiancee about how I wish there were Indycar races closer to where we live and oh boy the monkey's paw sure curled on this one

A buddy of mine has a manual V12 XJS and I told him he can't even think of selling it without giving me a several months heads up

It definitely wasn't the Saleen Windstar that was built for Tim Allen, the one I remember seeing in the picture was pretty clearly in Africa. I think the picture was from the back.

Was there ever a Ford Windstar painted in Mystichrome? I swear I remember seeing a picture of one that ended up in Africa but I cannot for the life of me find anything mentioning it.

It is a dream of mine to own a homologation special that is slower than my highschool minivan.

My opinions on BMW and Audi are heavily reliant on cars they made 30+ years ago and that they're some of the few companies left that still make sportwagons

How's it printing so far?

23.12.2025 22:59 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

If you can factory reset the printer see what happens if you try to print over USB with a new slicer. Also, make sure none of the sensors have disconnected. It might not be able to print because it's not getting a reading from something.

Are you using an SD card? If so and you have the right cable, what happens if you connect it directly to the PC?

If it has a screen and it's not turned on at all that could be a circuit board failure.

Is this a false memory or was there a radio edit of this song where "whore" was replaced with a "shhhh"

Or if you have a preferred brand for modeling paint color matched to car manufacturers' colors please let me know.

Really niche question, do any modelmakers that follow me know where I can get Zero branded modeling paints in the United States?

When I was at a Lemons race a few weeks ago a guy nearly vaporized a deer at over 100 mph in a 2012ish Mustang convertible.
