You’re never going to find exactly what you want, but the 5.99 deal for a medium 2 topping also applies to the cheesy bread you ordered, bringing the total down significantly.

Never order dominos without coupons. It’s exponentially more expensive than anything you can get with a coupon.

Dominos largest profit margins are on orders exactly like this. It’s often more economical to order more food at a cheaper price.

Paramount Plus wouldn’t work with pihole. I completely forgot it existed after the one time I tried to watch something on it and had to immediately cancel my subscription

Perez

Mexican fans will pay to see a Mexican driver in a possibly race winning car.

Once Perez is gone there will be a huge drop in the popularity of F1 in Mexico. It’s part of why RBR still hasn’t dropped him. The marketing advantage of him in Mexico and Latin America is such a huge sales driver that they don’t want to give that up.

Nah, I just enjoy cars and (legal) racing.

I’m never going to be interested in an EV. They’re boring, soulless creations that don’t interest me as an enthusiast. They’re great commuter vehicles, but that’s where their use ends. ICE is always going to be preferred by car people.

I don’t have a place to charge at home, nor a way to run a cord from my apartment to a car, so charging becomes a 20-30 minute ordeal instead of a 3 minute tank of gas on my way to work.

I regularly do 400+ mile trips in a day or two ( I’m a photographer ) and need to be able to quickly have range available in non major metro areas.

Since I live in an apartment overnight charging isn’t an option. So I’d still have to go places to charge, which takes significantly longer than stopping for gas.

Driving experince is subjective, but instant power with no real hp/torque curves makes driving really boring. There’s no response from the car, it’s just an On/Off toggle. There’s no real fun to driving it.

Yes the sound is a major part. I’ve got a very nice, valved exhaust system on my new car that adds a ton to how much fun the car is. Hearing the engine, how it responds and how the power is applied is a major part of the fun of driving.

If all you want is a car to get from point A to point B, an EV is completely fine, but as someone who genuinely enjoys cars and driving, EVs are boring and will 100% get you laughed out of most car shows.
