Oh, not essentially — it’s the exact same engine...
4.2 litre TFSI V8
Lel welp
So the only real difference would have been I’d have a coupe instead of a sedan and it would have been five years old...
Eh but still
Rrrrrrraaaaaagggghh
I use to know a lot more about cars then i do now, i just know i need to get a newer one.
Oh wait, difference of .2 litre between engines
Hmmm
Huh
I’m looking up the specs for both engines and it turns out the engine on the r8 has less output than on my s6
Guess I dodged that bullet then
But still...
R8 _hmmmmmmm_
Anyone else loving that the ACLU is getting tons of shit? Over there opposition of the title IX changes?
Any day the ACLU is getting shit on is a good day.
I liked them when they seemed principled. Now it’s just another left wing advocate group
They should change their name to reflect their new constituency
Anti Civil Liberties Union
>American
>Civil Liberties
Union
I'm sad over the change. The fewer institutions we have in common the more likely violence becomes.
Also, does it feel like the left or SJWs are wearing the ACLU like a skinsuit to anyone else.
Thats how the body snatchers operate, yes
They take over an institution and wear it for its prestige and history, and then dispose of it once its rotten.
I've felt that way for awhile
It’s sad. The aclu has protected freedom of speech in the past.
In terms of colleges, FIRE is the premiere organization right now. What is the one for stuff outside colleges? Who do you guys look to?
What is FIRE?
🔥
I believe they're mostly lefties, but they're pretty big on protecting free speech on campus
They take up a lot of cases and put out a list rating schools on free speech
The head of the group co-wrote a book with Johnathan Haidt and has been doing interviews to promote the book. Greg Lukianoff
Ok. Interesting.
I should correct that and say most the people who work for them lean left, not that they are lefties.
Ok. They should try to get conservatives on board too.
They only do college though, so I don't know whos filling the gap everywhere else that the ACLU use to do.
Honestly at this point the loss of free press is the most distressing thing. Before big tech started cracking down I felt like we were finally getting around the stranglehold that big media companies have had on available and legitimate perspectives
Now we just get news coverage (even from Fox) on how taking away some asshole's press privileges at the WH is a breach of the 1A. The hell? Any kid in HS civics class can see what a bogus argument that is.
What are people's thoughts on anti-trust? I feel the tech giants (and payment processors) are colluding to drive out competition so there is a case to be made.
