It's really crazy how many of these guys just will suicide so quickly. I think there is a reddit user who has been cataloguing these vids. Last I checked it was over 70 of them. 70 recorded suicides like this is insane, the number of unrecorded has got to be a huge number.

Lol no they have not

[-] SupraMario@lemmy.world 3 points 4 days ago

You're joking right? No they have not.... I love NASA, but acting like what spacex has done is only because of NASA is bullshit.

[-] SupraMario@lemmy.world 13 points 4 days ago

Cool, then get NASA to actually do something vs hamstringing itself with bureaucrats...the only reason people like you rage against SpaceX is because it's tied to that idiot musk.

+1 for boost as well here. It's the closest I got to RIF, which was awesome... sucks that the dev went to tildes, with not even half the activity as lemmy.

1: Germany has strict laws about "slap a badge and call it a day", mainly, you aren't allowed to do that.

The fuck are you taking about, no they do not. All manufacturers do this:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_badge-engineered_vehicles

A good percentage of the car has to be unique. That's why the Z4 and the Supra have different bodies and suspension - which going from a convertible to a hard top drastically changes how a car behaves.

Cool, no one said they weren't setup different. It's still a z4 hardtop which BMW built. That's why the Toyota techs had to be trained with BMW and they order parts from bmw...

2: Car mags nothing, the Toyota lead engineer that worked on the project, as well as video documentation, says otherwise.

It's called marketing, they didn't magically do shit to that motor, it's still a B series.

3: You didn't get a Mk.5 anyway, so do you know the difference?

Yea, it's still a BMW. I don't know why you're so upset about this.

Or did you roll in a Z4 and assume it's the same? Can you tell me how they "felt the same"? Is it just the BMW active diff wiggle under power? Or are there other tells?

How it drives vs what and who designed it are two different things. You're basically trying to say "if your point held any truth, then all BMWs would handle the same". That's not what anyone is saying. It's built by BMW, using BMW parts, from a car they already had. It's a hardtop z4, with a Toyota badge and nothing will change this.

No it's not lol the entire car is BMW, Toyota put a body kit on the z4 and called it a day. Saying they put different suspension and engine tune is hilarious... I didn't BPU+ my supras and say I collaborated with Toyota lol

The B series has been around for a long time, Toyota didn't do shit to the z4 version, that info is from some bullshit that some of the car mags came up with to help hype the car. A lot of us who are OG owners didn't buy the MKV because Toyota didn't do shit for it, it was a huge letdown to the majority of us.

Don't get me wrong it's a nice looking car, but it's not going to live up to its name. Toyota should have pulled a Nissan and went over the top like they did with the GTR, which took the R series bar and raised it to mythical status. Toyota had the cash and the ability, but opted to just rebadge a pre build. They built the damn LFA, they could have even spit something out that was 10% LFA and it would have been amazing.

It's a rebadge.... it's not a damn collaboration. The Mark iv was a collaboration with a bunch of companies...this is a damn BMW, looks good but it's a BMW.

Lower slipped disk old person here as well ...you gotta try yoga, shit has helped me a ton.

More than 40% of the USA alone is obese. No where near that many people are obese because they are taking stimulant ADHD meds. It's great that you lost weight, but a very massive portion of our population is obese because of their eating habits and sedentary lifestyle.

It goes on sale pretty regularly, and the dev is super active over at the subreddit, and will answer questions anyone has almost daily. %100 worth the pickup.
