damn, a R32 costs like €43 000 here...

that's like $52 000

is that an '04 or a new one at that price? they sold just 5k of the '04 r32 here in the states (750 of those in the deep metallic blue) so value is actually hovering 'round 30k. also '04 the only year sold here. seen a few listed here going for asking price as high as $38,995. :o picked mein up for just under 30k with vw certified warranty til 2010/74k miles. i am very happy with it, but at 52k? :blink: that ain't workin. :no:

seeing that venture van..

do you guys remember when they made that chevy lumina van? and now they have that other van along with saturn and buick?

WHAT THE ****... WHAT THE **** WERE THEY THINKING WHEN THEY DECIDED TO BUILD THAT?

the venture is actually decent.. how do you go from absolute crap to something nice and then **** all over it?

the pics are waay too big to post on neowin. so i'm just going to give you links.. I hope you enjoy the pictures as much as i enjoy driving this beauty

a 1979 Honda Hawk. I still drive the 1985 Buick Skyhawk as posted way earlier in this thread, although the body on it has got a lot worse since my pictures of it, I probably will be replacing the Skyhawk any month now.

So i have a motorcycle & a car :D

POS car. (just like the song...)

1986 Chrysler 5th Avenue Edition

5.2l V8 Engine

Windows work backwards... I push up on the drivers side and the passenger side window goes down. I push down on the passenger side and the driver side window goes up. Power locks don't work anymore. Antenna is frozen (happened a couple weeks ago randomly). The trunk floods with water when it rains. It gets like 10 miles per gallon. Its slow and sometimes it has trouble accelerating. I paid $$$$ to replace computer and lots of other junk.

I absolutely hate this car. Anyone want it? $900 OBO :)

I'd really rather have just about anything else ( thats a vertical/diagonal upgrade rather than horizontal )

took some pics to show the ground clearance of my car for another forum.. might as well share them here..

aint she a beauty :wub:

believe it or not.. 3 hours before these pictures were taken.. it was pouring RAIN.. where else in the world does it rain and then by 2pm you can drive to the beach to enjoy a nice sun and surf?

:happy:

Quite possibly the uglist vehicle nissan has ever come out with. The Back seat lacks any positive styling. Cheap materials used.

Whats with the little dome things over the instruments in the dash board? Makes it look like a last minue adjustment because they didnt know that the sun would affect the the vision of the driver.

They couldnt even have put on a miniscule detail such as a tailpipe tip, it looks dumb with out one, epecially when it protruded from under neath the rear bumper, which has a huge gap between that and the body of the car. Looks poorly put to geather to me.

the back seat? i didnt know back seats came in different positive styling.

cheap material? :laugh: for someone who rides in a GM (escalade) vehicle shouldn't be talking about cheap materials. thats rule #1.

the dome things? i believe those are what you call map lights and a compartment to carry your sunglasses.. i'm just guessing though.. :rolleyes: the sun affecting the driver.. i think thats what the sun visors are for.. they didn't put them there for looks, they're actually functional, you fold them down.. or open that little compartment next to the map light to pull out your sunglasses. :)

if the tail pipe bothered me so much i would've bought some chrome tips for $20... :sleep:

you don't want me to start talking about how the car you ride in is put to geather

especially at this time. :hmmm:

    • Looks like many years since the request was made, a directory tree view finally may be added. https://github.com/files-community/Files/pull/18537
    • Is it still super slow or has it improved on that area?
    • There's this from last year https://gist.github.com/threat...364659a8887841aa43deca4efd9 but nothing about a buffer overflow that MS somehow can't code against. No matter what, it makes sense to take a "protected by default" approach.
    • Popular Windows 11 file manager Files gets improved tags, layouts, and new OneDrive icon by Taras Buria Files, one of the best third-party file managers for Windows 11 out there, has received a minor update to version 4.1.3. The latest release brings a few quality-of-life improvements and new features, including an easier way to calculate folder sizes, improved tags, a new OneDrive icon, and more. Starting with folder size, File now has a dedicated "View size" button for each folder if you have the "Calculate folder sizes" option turned off in settings. This improves performance and allows you to see each folder's size only when needed. Note that folder size calculation could take some time depending on the number of files and their "weight." Next, Files can now retain file selection when switching layouts. While this change is rather minor, it lets you keep selected objects highlighted whenever you need to switch, say, from a list to a thumbnail layout. If you use tags, you will be glad to know that Files 4.1.3 makes it easier to remove all tags. You can do that with one of the following methods: From the context menu — right-click an item, open the Tags submenu, and choose Remove tags. From the toolbar — when the Edit Tags button is pinned to the toolbar, the same option appears in its menu. From the Command Palette — open the Command Palette and search for Remove tags. You can also assign your own keyboard shortcut to it from Settings. The final visible change is the new OneDrive icon. Files now pulls the icon directly from the OneDrive executable, which means the app always has the up-to-date version. As for the fixes, developers resolved the following bugs: Fixed an issue with extracting tar archives. Fixed an issue where the Signatures page would occasionally cause a crash. Fixed an issue where the Play action wasn’t available when a single media file was selected. Fixed an issue where Smart Extract would extract archives to the wrong location when switching tabs. Fixed an issue where tag search excluded folders when grouping by type. Fixed an issue where thumbnails would sometimes fail to refresh after a file was modified. Fixed an issue where a BitLocker-locked drive wasn’t displayed. Developers also revealed what is coming in future updates. Soon, Files Preview will get a new Tree View sidebar, allowing you to display folders in an expandable hierarchy, which is a popular way to browse deeply nested folders. Expect the feature to arrive in the preview channel in upcoming updates. You can download Files from the Microsoft Store (paid version) or its official website (free).
