I know answers to following questions, just wondering who has enoug "culture" to find out!
Yes, it's a car. It's obvious. But what is it, from what is it taken from (movie, serie, etc..), and who drives it (in the media it's taken from)?
1k Attack turns for FREE for whoever finds out!

Clearly it's an Audi TT-4.. but who drives it? No idea.
(It's what the picture name says anyway.)

I knew some would have the good idea to check image name.
Yes it's an Audi TT. BUT, not a RANDOM one. It's like Dukes of Hazzard's General Lee. By that I mean, taken from a serie/movie.
Tell me who drives it (actor/actress is sufficient, not needed for character name in movie/serie), and what is the name of movie/serie.
Yeah, I don't tell whether it's a serie or a movie!

I would hardly call it a matter of culture to be sad enough to know off the top of your head the designation of an eccentric car... though I would also consider the same for knowing anything largely about cars.. they're just cars...
snore... such useless facts fill up good brain space...in fact they're just so useless they fill up about 40,000 times more than any other fact would...
*demonstrates by making a box with his hands and slowly making it smaller, until he has to use his fingers and eventually just one hand and two fingers*
*whispers*
brain space...
onnnn.. the other hand.. it does not look like a terrible car.. if I were to ever waste my cash on a car...and that one happened to be present... you sure as hell better be certain i'd consider that beastier just as certain as I would consider cutting my own arm off before taking any further part in a conversation about car specs and things beyond a crude idea of just how big they are and what exactly I would kill with it....
*walks off giving the patented shoulder bump*

Ah, but there's a thing you fail to consider.
A great volume in an infinite space is still nothing.
It's all a matter of scaling.

That's what we call general culture. Sure, it's not physics or latin litterature, but general culture is also important! It helps to have conversations on various subjects!

im always amused at how 'futuristic' is always limited to the present somehow... its obviously based on the Audi TT. I mean come on,
For example look at the movie 'Alien', most of the computer visuals were in CLI. lol. Heck, even the APUs in the 2nd and 3rd Matrix movies are an outdated design. (the mecha dual machine gun things in Zion) I mean nowadays if the military were looking into such a mecha concept they'd be looking at remote piloting systems. And they've been looking at remote piloting vehicles for Ages now. Some of the old F-4 Phantom jets were remote piloted in limited tests. (the QF-4 comes to mind)
even in modern Sci-fi we see aircraft being controlled by the traditional joystick and rudder pedals, very occasionally do we see something beyond this as far as imagination is concerned. look at the story 'Space Cadet' by Robert A. Heinlein, they dare to mention a phone packed in a suitcase, in a time where mobile phones werent even thought of beyond this.
lol....

Umm.. no.
Umm..yes.
General culture also includes knowledge of cinema, and I Robot is good enough movie to deserve to be interested to..
People who don't have general culture, even if really skilled in their own domain(s), make quite boring conversations....

I agree. Each with his hobby. Even though i`m not that a big fan of cars, it happened for me to know the answer for this. Does this make me less intelligent than Semper? No. Actually it makes me a little intelligent than him in this domain cos i knew and he didn`t while i`m as i said not a big fan of cars.
