The car is a Dongfeng M-Hero 917. It's Chinese.

[–] The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world 96 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Oh no! We're not even the #1 at making gun-cars?

[–] whodatdair@lemmy.blahaj.zone 48 points 1 month ago

Deh terk er jerbs!

[–] Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works 29 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I see China is on board with the monitors that look like they were glued to the dashboard and not actually part of it asthetic. I like that both driver and passenger get a neat throttle control. What does it do?

twin throttle controls are usually for different engines; it's not one set for the pilot flying and another for the pilot monitoring.

maybe this vehicle has two engines to allow its owner to really gun it?

[–] SoGrumpy@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 month ago

I see what you did there.

[–] bstix@feddit.dk 3 points 1 month ago

It actually has four engines. One for each wheel.

Gotta appease the American buyers

[–] PunnyName@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago (1 children)

And apparently it's amazing. I'm sure it has lots of spyware.

[–] saltesc@lemmy.world 22 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Amazing? It looks like it was designed by my ADHD when I was 6.

[–] stom@lemmy.dbzer0.com 26 points 1 month ago (2 children)

No, they actually finished it.

[–] saltesc@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

Hahaha. A deep cut and a burn.

[–] deadbeef79000@lemmy.nz 2 points 1 month ago

If he can finish dialling $emergency_number he may even get treated for that burn.

[–] BeefPiano@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago (3 children)

I never want to look in any direction without seeing a screen. Preferably 3.

Well that makes me not want to buy gigabyte products ever again...

[–] henfredemars@infosec.pub 24 points 1 month ago

They do make some good products, but they also make tacticool RGB gamer motherboards that are quite showy. My latest build is all black, no lights.

Never had any issues with mine but I know they're not known to be the best

[–] stom@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Used em for nearly 20 years but their newer stuff has some reduced build quality in favour of aesthetics. The model I bought had particularly bad coil whine (as did it's RMA replacement) so I shifted from them.

Why?

Most online gaming is fps or RPG. Why would a magazine be offensive if a sword wasn't.

[–] apocalypticat@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago (5 children)

I'm going to guess because of the gun deaths epidemic.

American designed, not necessarily American made.

woah i have a phobia of penises with teeth

[–] JoMiran@lemmy.ml 16 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Which is funny because that's a GLOCK, which is an Austrian pistol.

[–] MorrisonMotel6@lemm.ee 26 points 1 month ago

That is absolutely, 100% not a Glock

It's even funnier that it's a Chinese vehicle.

Missed opportunity to make the door opener a trigger.

What, are they talking oven gloves? I have no idea what I'm looking at.

Batman-proof car

[–] Waldowal@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

That's one way to ensure you get shot by the police.

[–] deadbeef79000@lemmy.nz 3 points 1 month ago

The CCP police will at least torture you to confirm party loyalty before killing you rather than summarily executing you on the spot.

[–] Noel_Skum@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

RoboCop gonna want his piece back.

[–] HonkTonkWoman@lemm.ee 1 points 1 month ago

Yup. Got some more dicks that need a shootin’.

[–] Snapz@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

"No, it's not."

"No...no, it's not... But you can imagine what it would be like if it was, right?"

[–] Nicoleism101@lemm.ee 3 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

this fits my brain on the roads lately. It’s not only American thing to drive like absolutely crazy homicidal bullet

However actual buyers may not catch the layers of irony and dark humour
