Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #kei, aggregated by home.social.

  1. I forgot to mention - I saw my first #Kei truck in the wild in Ottawa last week.

  2. @rakontisto I also think your disgust is shared by more folks than the car companies know (or care to know) judging by the trend of importing #kei cars.

  3. Hey #Automotive #Fediverse did Cheetolini sign whatever to allow import/use of #Kei cars in the US?

    (I'm very mixed on this, NHTSA-certified vs uncertified collisions will no be pretty.)

  4. President Donald Trump Has Apparently Given Kei Cars the Green Light for the U.S.A.

    Huh, we'll see if'n anything comes of this, Trump does have a habit of saying non-vetted things, but...

  5. The long road to Marrakesh: 40 years of copyright obstruction to human rights and social justice

    One of the little-known but extremely telling episodes in the history of modern copyright, discussed in Walled Culture the book (free digital versions available), concerns the Marrakesh Treaty. A post on the Corporate Europe Observatory (CEO) site from 2017 has a good summary of what the treaty is about, and why it is important:

    Of course! Stupidly I hadn't twigged, but that's why the international jimnys have bolt-on flaring over the wheel arches, and the Japanese ones fit within the Kei car dimensional requirements.

    They have - to my mean eye - more of the "form follows function" aesthetic than do the new models from Land Rover. Also a cracking name name, by Jiminy!

    I've come to the conclusion that the little Daihatsu Hijet 4x4 truck is closer to the defender than those things are. I'd be curious to know whether or not the intelligentsia thought my belief valid. Be as simple as possible and as robust as possible; the elegance of the defender for me was always that simple is robust, repairable, and comparatively low-cost if one aims to manufacture with good quality.

  13. Went for a photowalk but the most interesting thing I saw was a little kei truck.

  14. Kei from Lovelyz justifies her place on my bias list with her rendering of one the group's most beloved songs, "Hi".

    The audience laps it up, and so do I.

  19. I spotted this little #hoonicorn in the carpark in #Salthill , #Galway yesterday. It's a #Suzuki #Alto #Works a #JDM #kei car that was intended as an enthusiast model. And even more unusual, it's the #Turbo model, and manual! I researched getting one imported to #Ireland a few years ago, I'm rather pleased to see someone else has!
