    Top electric vehicle registrations in Europe by company, April 2025

    This is not a Lada. It's a Fiat Polski. Made in Poland. Bigger engine, rear leaf springs, four disk brakes. Better than a Lada in many ways, but reliability was even worse. It's a much closer port of the italian Fiat 124, and it was made everywhere - Turkish Tofaz 124, Egyptian Nasr, Indian...

    Stellantis names new CEO: Antonio Filosa

    Clearly you should read my post again. I never analyzed Ram's sales for good or bad, and never had any concerns about them. I said that they would have been exactly the same sales if it was still named Dodge, and that splitting Ram to a separate brand hurt DODGE - the non-truck part. So here.

    Windows and multiple displays

    Yes. Drag the tiles that represent the monitors, hit apply or whatever the button was, if you get it to what you need it to be - hit whatever button allows you to confirm, and you're good.

    Stellantis names new CEO: Antonio Filosa

    But Fiat's money when we were dead in the water we needed, didn't we 😇 That's the beauty of US market. We're so big that we can in all clear conscience drive automotive companies in the ground, have some poor optimist from overseas come in and invest, acting like we're doing them a favor...

    Stellantis names new CEO: Antonio Filosa

    Toyota was inexpensive and econoboxy. To get new clients from a higher bracket - in the US - they had to create a luxury brand. They gave rich people a decent excuse to be seen in a Toyota without being laughed at. Lexus covered a new bracket. It was adding something new and bringing more sales...

    Stellantis names new CEO: Antonio Filosa

    I have no chips in this game. Just find it unsmart. As for moving on - I go in chronological order, and Jar Jar Binks has frozen the queue - I'll be able to move on the rest of the queue the day I move on it, which is never.

    Boxed yogurt - is this yogurt as healthy as just plain Greek yogurt?

    Eh... serves them well, yogurt is endemic to the whole Balkans area (and to probably most of Iran and Turkey) and has little Greek into it other than proving they were fast-thinking into putting a protected label on it. Same for feta. All good. More power to them.

    Boxed yogurt - is this yogurt as healthy as just plain Greek yogurt?

    Hype is never good for anything 😇 I'll try to explain to the best of my limited knowledge. Note that I know all this because my feeding habits are EXTREMELY unhealthy :giggle: So first - you have to set the bar on what is a health food. Is it a food that brings you extra health, is it one that...

    Boxed yogurt - is this yogurt as healthy as just plain Greek yogurt?

    I beg to disagree. All other things being equal (no added sugar, no flavors, etc) - real yogurt is absolutely a health food. Now, what is real yogurt is a matter that can be widely discussed. But let's for the sake of keeping it simple boil it down to "yogurt containing active cultures". Which...

    Stellantis names new CEO: Antonio Filosa

    This ^^^ I'd add - any automaker who has bought/owned any American car brand has lost money at the end of the day, best case scenario. Speaking of which - I still find RAM as a separate brand ridiculous. Dude. It's a Dodge. Be proud. Make Dodge pride-worthy. Worst renaming for the sake of...

    BTW, it turned out that according to The Internet, Snap-On's own site, and most major search engines as well as Ai's - the above tool (Snap-On Macpherson Spring Compressor - AW91) simply doesn't exist 😇 Nothing on it. Nada. It does however show on FB Marketplace, historically, pops here and...

    95 3000GT VR4 Delo XSP okay?

    In my dreams of a VR4, Amsoil and HPL should be only worthy of creating a cleaning spray for the cupholders, while the engineering teams of HPL, Amsoil and Maxima should be put into a gladiator match the the death, on planet Dune to distill an oil from Spice and tears. But I'm probably wrong...

    So you have a collector beauty that will only get better, and you want to feed it high fructose corn syrup ? Shame, Sir. Shame.

    North Korean warship heavily damaged during ceremonial launch

    We actually don't. We have no idea how this will end. We know neither whether the right people were arrested, nor whether the people punished will be the ones arrested. We're in a double negative. Totalitarian states are intricate organizations. You can't keep power without a totalitarian...
