You will have to explain what you are talking about. What is a metro looking app?

I see a lot everyday that is a mile or so from a large dealership on my way to work that is full of hundreds of new cars that have weeks/months of dust on them. I make it a point to watch and the lot does not change much, then bang one day the old ones are gone and new ones are there. You tell me, overseas selling for pennies on the dollar after the American public subsidized their sell by buying a full price. You really think these third world sh_tholes can afford all the new cars we see in photos of their cities etc... when all we hear is they need our jobs and money?

Windows 8 and 10 and any app that has no defined border around it and mainly black and white colored themes. All the new crap kids are turning out.

Not on my radar of concerns. I'm always a function over form kind of guy.

It is fun reminiscing, it drives the wife crazy and gives me something to do while she is watching football or tv.

What would stop a importer from going to those countries and buying those excess cars and re importing them back to the USA at a huge profit? I think a better theory is the unsold get crushed and recycled. But even that would be obvious.

**** “Yeah today because robots are rudimentary compared to where they will be in 10-20 years and then will put 80% of the workforce out of business. Once they become truly bipedal or mobile with some AI they will replace most of everyone.”****

And they will always pass a piss test, never quit and send their Wife to pick up their check, never need to be woke up, fed and driven to a jobsite, never bitch that it is after 5:00 and that they wanted mayo not mustard on their Free Food.

I learned all of that before I started shaving my head, wish I would have shaved my head before I learned the above.
