Nothing quite says “high-performance muscle car” like a popup ad for a Mopar Extended Warranty covering your whole center console. That’s right, Dodge Charger owners are now experiencing an exciting new feature: pop-up ads that appear every time the vehicle stops at a light. This absolute garbage feature was spotted in the wild, take a look here.

Hell yes I do.

When that old antipiracy ad was like "you wouldn't download a car," turns out they were vastly overestimating your average American tractor owner or car driver's respect for the corporate arcology.

    Arcology: architectural ecology, a city intended to be contained in a single structure.

    Thanks boss, I used the word and I'm like "I'm maybe 10% sure this is a word and most that confidence is coming from SimCity 2000" but then I went full send, I might not be the best journalist.

    You know, I meant the corporate hierarchy. They're increasingly living in Spacex company towns or other arcologies and such. The gated communities, whatever the corpo version of the Ivory Tower is. In a word, that one building from SimCity 2000.
