The problem with that sound, is that it's the same sound that we'll get if there's some major incoming natural disaster or nuclear strike or something.

It's going to cause people to condition themselves to ignore it. My phone was in another room last night and I didn't bother to even immediately go look at it...

Went to the Sphere on Wednesday, fuck legitimately one of the craziest things I’ve ever seen. Really hard to comprehend the scale but a venue like this has limitless possibilities. The resolution and scale of the screen is such that I’m not sure they could even do a top gun type movie on it for the sake of everyone getting motion sickness.











The inside has a bunch of “future” stuff with robots and AI which seemed kind of hokey but the actual inside of the sphere is totally amazing and really feels like a ground breaking, next level type of thing.

Prices however, as with Vegas in general, are totally insane but even with those prices I’d say it was totally worth it to experience. If Miley Cyrus does a residency there as has been rumoured that would be a crazyyyyy concert guaranteed

Yea u2 had the first residency when it opened and by all accounts it was amazing, knew a few people who went.

For concerts it’s not the entirely all encompassing thing like the movie they play there is apparently. The people I talked to who went said the screen is only totally on for about half the time and the rest the stage is illuminated like a regular concert so it isn’t this total sensory overload for the entirety of the concert.

I'd love to see the killers there. Ideally a hot fuss anniversary though. Or they can just play Mr brightside 17 times and I'd still be stoked.

all this talk about leasing cars. i've only ever driven used cars my entire adult life lol. i proudly drive my '90 civic si. i've owned this current one for almost 8 years now and my maintenance has been pretty minimal despite the car's age. let's ball park it at approximately $1000 per year. this would have been even less had i actually done some wrenching on my own.

car was cheap to acquire, still decent on gas, has actually gained in market value (could likely list anywhere between 6-10K), and still turns heads. most importantly, the car is and always will be enjoyable to drive. i love how it looks and the more i do to it, the more i love it! really can't name too many new cars that would give me the same experience over time.

and if that ain't enough, i still own my EK hatch

I only drove old and used cars my whole life... like 40+ cars... but decided to finally buy 1 new one even though it's a total waste of money and I know it... just wanted to say I did and have a "fast" car for a change haha

It's a lot more fun to take something nobody else really wants and have it be important to you in my mind.

Sounds like a good approach for a poor person to take.
It's a lot more fun to own a shitbox that nobody wants, but it's important to me because I can't afford anything else to get me to work everyday.



I've done used cars + 1 new. All owned for 5+ years. A concern I have is when it comes time for me to buy another car, will buying used electric vehicles be like it was when everything was ICE? When buying a used ice, it might be couple thousand in fluids, spark plugs, worn bushings and worn bearings. When buying a used electric, is it going to be a gamble every time you start up the car because the battery will work or it won't with nothing in between. And once it doesn't work, it's a 10k+ repair bill.

Continuing with old ice cars like 20+ year one, we risk junkyards not having the parts, and not being able to obtain new parts whether it's OEM or aftermarket. Or if you can obtain it new then is it a long wait that renders your car undriveable for months? Last back ordered part I had to deal with was a OEM motor mount. Took like 3 months to show up.

Anyone else with similar concerns about buying used electric when your history of cars is filled with used cars only.
