I wonder which one is more expensive, a new Lamborghini or a new bus.

[–] noride@lemm.ee 22 points 1 day ago

Depends on the size of the bus - anywhere from high 90s to half a million for a school bus.

It's a great meme, but I do cringe a little bit at the idea of engineers designing the car while already having built most of it.

[–] Phoenix3875@lemmy.world 11 points 1 day ago

That's agile for you.

Those engineers just got serious about their lifes. You can crank out way more products if you skip designing them, it is the engineer hustle 🔧😎

And if they didn't decide yet, they could always just bolt more seats to the roof.

TIL: The people on the bus are my friends! Yay!

[–] explodicle@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 day ago

Commute friends are great. You've got a pleasant conversation for the ride, and another source of information when your ride is canceled.

Depending on the route, I'd argue that you should be careful what you wish for. Having said that, I found your response extremely wholesome to a Kenneth Parcell level.

"Oh, hi, new friend! Is that a test tube in your mouth? You must be a scientist!"

"Golly, that sure is a big knife! Thanks for defending all of us bus friends!"

"Golly, that sure is a big knife! Thanks for defending all of us bus friends!"

Interestingly, I've had a variant of this conversation, on the bus. Lots of people aren't very aware of how they make the people around them feel, but most people aren't really trying to bother anyone most of the time.

I'm pretty sure nobody driving that midlife crisis on wheels has ever gotten "serious" about their lifes

If you're choosing life-goals that shut out your friends, those are the wrong life-goals.

Engineering decisions: how can make something that pollutes to the legal max both in particles, noise, and, come to think of it, any aspect possible? Oh, I know, a car!

[–] Korhaka@sopuli.xyz 3 points 1 day ago

If I had that kind of money I would just get myself a few gokarts and a track. If I wasn't quite that rich and just normal sports car money l would get a field or some woodland and some quadbikes and dirt bikes.

But the car on the second panel is a Ginetta G58 (with a Chevy engine) for LMP3, not road legal ... witch ... ok, it does have two seats, so it checks out, carry on.

The seats:

[–] brucethemoose@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (2 children)

Nice catch.

That's a straight up racecar, though. Like it's built exclusively for entertainment and fun, not epeen.

I'd respect someone driving a Ginetta G58 around (or, more practically, an Ariel Atom, a homogilation special or something) way more than a chonky, overpriced lambo. That screams "I don't care what you think, I like to drive" instead of "hey everyone, look how rich I am!"

Like this people driving around these monsters. That's beyond flaunting wealth, that's someone's neurotic hobby, and most bystanders aren't going to realize how special they are compared to the Porsche trailing them:

is that a Cossie back there?

big want

[–] brucethemoose@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

It's a horrifically fast 4wd RS200 in a cossie's skin, heh.

Same with the Peugot. You'd think it's just a 205 until you get in, and see a worryingly loud engine behind the seat.

[–] y0kai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 day ago

Haha the RS200 is the only "Cossie" I'm actually familiar with, as we didn't get the homologated version in the USA :(

I did not recognize the Peugot though lol. Both sound like a load of fun to drive

[–] Evil_Shrubbery@lemm.ee 4 points 1 day ago

RS200, with group-B cat ears.

My life goal is to not work...which is why I'm not spending my money on a status symbol.

[–] chuckleslord@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago (12 children)

Commas, man. They're important to not abuse. You made my brain hiccup
