Como diría Obi Wan Kenobi, eso no es una luna. Es Carlos —nuestro reputado editor jefe— mirando a cámara a través de un rollo de papel higiénico. Todo sea por investigar desde dentro la última tendencia absurda de Internet: hacerse un selfie con un tubo de cartón para “parecerse a la luna”.

Como mínimo a la luna de la película Viaje a la Luna:

La idea es simple: busca un rollo de papel...

On my work PC i have 2 1920x1080 screens, resulting in wallpaper size 3840x1080. Anyone has proper examples of wide wallpapers? Here are some of mine.

Without the handle, obviously. Rollover protection is for the weak minded and feeble.

Another day, another coffee shop calling the police on a black person for something ridiculous.

The morning of Nov. 7 was just like any other for Tirza Wilbon White. She walked into her local Fairfax, Va., Dunkin’ Donuts, a place she visits so regularly, employees know her by sight. She set up her laptop to get ready to dig into some emails, bothering precisely no one.

Then things went...

I’m in San Antonio, and need to get out and do something, so I think I’m going to go to the 2 yards I know about in SA tomorrow, Pick-n-pull and Roosevelt U Pull it. Anyone have knowledge of any other yards?

A federal agency has stopped a major East Coast natural gas pipeline in its tracks—just a week after doing so to a similar project.

The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) decided late-night Friday to halt all construction of the Atlantic Coast Pipeline, reports E&E News. This 600-mile long natural gas pipeline has met serious opposition from environmentalists. The interstate pipeline...

Here is the Nissan Laurel 2000 SGX and Sakura Sprinter. Found this in Target this morning. It was the only one to be found and still no peg for it.

Decent set over all but I do have a few complaints about it. First the car is way to low to actually roll down the ramp. Next the door/ramp has a yellow shade to it that doesnt match the rest of the box. Lastly the Laurel has roon to move...

Over 20 miles of walking south, we came across only three private properties. They were small humble log cabin shacks. Empty but not abandoned properties, probably for the summer. Not secluded, desolate.

I noticed one property had a landing strip as the only way of access, no roads just an airstrip. A house only accessible by airplane, or you could walk south 15 miles where you can access...

If you, like me, are tired of this world—these people—tired of being caught in the tangle of their lives , Google now allows you explore 16 other planetary bodies that are more serene than this one.

Yesterday, Google announced that it has added 13 new worlds to its digital recreation of our solar system. The site previously only provided virtual tours of our Moon, Mars, and the International...

It’s awards season, and once again, Essence magazine is right in step with the moment by releasing its annual Black Women in Hollywood issue with four incredible cover stars—who also happen to be this year’s award honorees! Newcomer on the rise KiKi Layne, industry vet-turned leading lady Regina Hall, child star turned outspoken role model Amandla Stenberg and, of course, the “Mother of Black...

This project was on the backburner for waaaaay too long. I absolutely love the Johnny Lightning International Scout II Cast. The details are fantastic. But it originally came on a huge lifted suspension with big mudder tires. No Bueno. The glorious stock-appearance Scout II deserved wheels a bit more understated.

I originally wanted to use some Tomica Button wheels. But, I don’t really have...

I was poking around at my local WalMart the other day and absolutely fell in love with this cast. ‘69 Mercury Cyclone Redline. It’s metal on metal and rolls like a champ. The tampo application is horrible! Hahaha! But, I could not resist the awesomeness of this under-appreciated car.

If I can find the time this winter, this will be the foundation of my first custom. While I do like the orange...

The dealer threw up the white flag. They contacted VW corporate and requested a buy back, so the end may be near for me and the GTI. I’m kind of sad. It’s been by far my favorite car I’ve ever owned, problems be damned. When I had it, it was absolutely perfect at everything it did. That all being said, as much as I want another one, I believe I’m going to attempt to be smart and take this as a...

Is it even worth buying one used? Like the price difference is almost negligible.

So long Oppo, and thanks for all of the entertainment. I’m a relative newb, as I’ve only been commenting here for about a year, but I lurked for a year before that. Oppo’s great, one of the best car places on the web, IMO. Let’s hope we aren’t killed or can move to another format!
