@meso@the.asbestos.cafe @creamqueen@clubcyberia.co @sally@freesoftwareextremist.com What car do you have again?

@meso@the.asbestos.cafe @creamqueen@clubcyberia.co @sally@freesoftwareextremist.com Yes, that is possible. "Sportscar" is mostly defined by body style, weight, suspensions and gearing.

My 626 has a 2.2L engine, but it definitely isn't faster than my MX5.

@meso@the.asbestos.cafe @creamqueen@clubcyberia.co @sally@freesoftwareextremist.com You can buy 10 miatas for 1 ae86.

@creamqueen@clubcyberia.co @meso@the.asbestos.cafe @sally@freesoftwareextremist.com Same can be said for any car that is famous because of TV. Like the DeLorean and BttF, R34 Skylines because of 2F2F, Pontiac Firebirds because Knight Rider, the list goes on and on.

Doesn't mean it's a bad car tho. But if you want a similar powerplant and drivetrain (1.6L ~120bhp RWD layout) there are many cheaper options like a Mazda MX5 or whatever. :miata_pat:

@creamqueen@clubcyberia.co @sally@freesoftwareextremist.com @meso@the.asbestos.cafe Someone watched that one RCR video

I had to suffer knowing this exists so here you go.

@aetios@sns.minovsky.space Hey share some of that motivation with me please i need it.

@Suiseiseki@freesoftwareextremist.com Good point, I think in the case of Rozen Maiden it kinda works pretty well.

@NeonPurpleStar@outerheaven.club Always was

@puniko@mk.absturztau.be But if you don't throw away the plastic packaging it isn't waste, so it is "reduce" which is better than "recycle".

@beardalaxy@gameliberty.club @puniko@mk.absturztau.be @captain_arepa@moar.cachapa.xyz Calling it "smoli" instead of the other word isn't fooling anyone btw

@puniko@mk.absturztau.be Still costs energy to recycle. There's a reason why "recycle" is last on the three Rs.

@captain_arepa@moar.cachapa.xyz @puniko@mk.absturztau.be Personally I'm not into Nendoroids at all. I do not like chibi style figures, I very heavily prefer collecting actual figures with accurate proportions and scale much more.

@Suiseiseki@freesoftwareextremist.com @puniko@mk.absturztau.be Or do they really insist on Nendoroid figures just being a gacha game now?

@Suiseiseki@freesoftwareextremist.com @puniko@mk.absturztau.be Or you know, at least print a graphic or picture of the product on the box?

Now retailers are going to have a stockroom full of identical white boxes with no clear visual indicators of what the product is inside. That sounds like actual hell.

@puniko@mk.absturztau.be In extreme cases this "eco-friendly" packaging could actually result in more waste, not less.

Because people are more likely to throw away the paper packaging, while they are more likely to keep the plastic packaging (not considering it waste, aka reducing waste).

@puniko@mk.absturztau.be Also more philosophical.

If there are people who like to your product while keeping it inside of the packaging, then maybe the packaging is part of the product and should not be considered a disposable?

In that case you're not actually reducing waste?

@iro_miya@mk.absturztau.be Wait a minute, this is not an apology. This is abandonment issues!
