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

[-] The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world 97 points 2 years ago

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

[-] whodatdair@lemmy.blahaj.zone 48 points 2 years ago

Deh terk er jerbs!

[-] Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works 29 points 2 years ago

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 2 years ago

I see what you did there.

[-] bstix@feddit.dk 3 points 2 years ago

It actually has four engines. One for each wheel.

Gotta appease the American buyers

[-] PunnyName@lemmy.world 11 points 2 years ago

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

[-] saltesc@lemmy.world 22 points 2 years ago

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

[-] stom@lemmy.dbzer0.com 26 points 2 years ago

No, they actually finished it.

[-] saltesc@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

Hahaha. A deep cut and a burn.

[-] deadbeef79000@lemmy.nz 2 points 2 years ago

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

[-] BeefPiano@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

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 2 years 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.

[-] Kecessa@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 years ago

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

[-] stom@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 years ago

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 2 years ago

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

The colour scheme kind of screams "DFI" to me.

American designed, not necessarily American made.

[-] JoMiran@lemmy.ml 16 points 2 years ago

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

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

[-] MorrisonMotel6@lemm.ee 26 points 2 years ago

That is absolutely, 100% not a Glock

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

Batman-proof car

[-] Snapz@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

"No, it's not."

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

[-] Waldowal@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

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

[-] deadbeef79000@lemmy.nz 3 points 2 years ago

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

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
