My little brother said the same thing. I think you're both right. Clearly that wasn't enough to push the deal through though.
You don't need to merge with Nissan to do that if you're Honda. Just buy out their design team. Much cheaper lol.
Edit: spelling
Every single right leaning person I know LOVES several movies and shows that have main characters that aren't white men.
The boondocks, blade series, basically anything Morgan Freeman or Samuel L Jackson have done, Lando, Morpheus and uncle Phil off the top of my head.
I am aware there are the super racist far right guys that probably can't even watch Scooby Doo because the dog is brown, but the grand majority of "right wing" people aren't white supremacists that lose their shit if a character isn't white in their movies and shows. Even if that's what some people here might tell you is the case.
My only problem with anything like this is who decides what counts and "the truth"?
Because if we grab 10 people from Louisiana they will tell you that God is real and that is the truth.
You grab 10 people from California you're probably gonna have a harder time getting them to agree on what the "truth" is on gods existence.
Honestly thank God.
I was really worried about how this was only going to drag down Honda.
I used to love Nissan. They made several of my dream cars.
Unfortunately it's been quite some time since they made anything very good imo.
Currently have a reputation of meh reliability and meh driving experience.
They don't offer anything to entice someone away from Toyota or Honda.
I hope Nissan can come back but idk how they do that without a serious overhaul of their whole business from the ground up.
Even if we all had the exact same skin tone there woulda still be racists. They would just move onto hair color or eye color or nose width. Some people just have hate in their hearts and they will use any physical differences to lump people together.
Personally I'm with Morgan Freeman on the topic. Just stop talking about it. Stop talking about race. We are all humans. We all got struggles. Let's all get along as humans and work together.
Eggs are 12 dollars a dozen near me.
Good thing I know someone with chickens who sells her surplus eggs for 2 bucks a dozen lol
It's shit like this that makes me not want to go outside sometimes lol.
It's spooky out there. No brain eating amoeba can get me if I'm playing. Video games in my room lol
I would hope it's at least a super dull chain, but something tells me that's not it.
I do not miss my barely 30fps windowed mode laptop gaming life haha
Yeah it's really disappointing honestly. AMD cards just don't have the raw performance and the it seems even though Intel's second gen cards were doing alright they don't want to keep going down that path which sucks. Nvidia needs proper competition and amd hasn't been giving them a run for performance in a long time now.
First computer I ever used was probably some crusty old gateway with windows 95.
I pretty much only had access to my parents old desktop computers until I hit highschool when they bought me some dell POS that could barely run cs 1.6 in windowed mode.
First PC I built myself was a 770 and some first or second gen i7 that my buddy sold me for 20 bucks lol.
Been building my own computer every few years since. I am currently on a 3080 and i7 10700k that I have overclocked on all cores to 5.2ghz.
I'll probably build a new system in a year or two when the 6000 series cards drop. I am foolishly hoping that Nvidia has some change of heart about pricing by then lol
Because American protestors have zero imagination.
The Brits know how to start a proper chant.
She had two wolf/husky dog hybrids and they started fighting randomly while we were talking in her driveway. She stupidly tried to break them up by sticking her arm between them. Well one of them latched on her fore arm and wouldn't let go. She screamed and I quickly grabbed the dogs scruff with one hand and sent the ol index on a butthole excursion.
Dog yelped and let her am go before it scurried off. I can't remember if she needed stitches or not but we wrapped her arm up and I think her wife took her to the hospital later that evening. She was fine after a couple weeks. They ended up getting rid of the dogs. She decided she wasn't the right owner for those dogs. She was right lol.
Idk about all that. I feel like the media latches onto things that are getting clicks which makes the public more concerned something is happening more which means more people click on it.
It's a disgusting feedback loop that ends up just making people feel shitty.
Yeah. It feels like you're playing a better game with saran wrap on your mouse or something. It just FEELS off.
I think for 10-15 bucks it would be fine but for 60 bucks it just wasn't worth it to me.
"Honey have you made sure the baby got some fresh air today?"
"Yeah I hung him out the window*
"You WHAT?!"

Media is once again the enemy. Crashes happen. They are just getting more clicks right now so they are getting reported more.
Cursive made more sense when our writing tools were bad at being picked up often.
This isn't 1897 anymore grandpa.
I played it back when it came out and I didn't enjoy it at all. Game just felt flat and unsatisfying.
Maybe it's better after updates but I don't really see how they could fix the issues I had with the game without completely overhauling the game in major ways.
Probably one of my favorite gadgets. I wish I had known about them sooner.
Maybe I'm blind but is there no way to change the upvote/downvote colors?
