In this video of perhaps only a dozen left turns, the driver had to hit the brakes to stop the autopilot from killing him twice. Are you really trying to claim that normal human drivers get t-boned every 6 left turns?

“worked up about in. 98% in. 2% backed in”

I generally agree with you, and if there’s someone behind me I will usually pull in forward. But if the spot is narrow, “threading the needle” backwards is actually the easiest way for me to park because my car is very square and sometimes I can’t get my front fenders to clear the other cars. Fortunately, being from…

Is my brain not working or is this comment missing a lot of words?

Saying

Starting well or not, a fully restored car doesn’t exactly play the part of “cheap crapcan” well. Filmmakers also often add the exact same squeaky “poorly running engine” stock sound to any old car in a movie, and it drives me nuts.

No no, see, you’ve misunderstood the old timers. The big steel cars from the 1950s-1970s were much safer... for the car. The whole goal is to be able to pass the car down when you die in a horrible accident. You may be sprayed all over the windshield, but the car is fine.

I think the need for disk brakes is kinda exaggerated. I daily drive a 60s car in the Rocky Mountains which is pretty much the most demanding regular driving situation most car’s brakes will ever be in. Lots of huge mountain passes at highway speeds in all weather, often going up or down 3,000 ft at a time. Disk…

I’m here to tell you that you’re still misreading CruzeHatch’s comment, so you’re now two comments deep in calling someone names who was making a similar point as you.

Yes, I’m sure you’re so much more aware of the dangers of riding a motorcycle than the guy who just wrecked one.

Was the temptation to get clever with your wording just too alluring to resist being a giant asshole?

I’ve never even ridden a motorcycle and I thought this article was really interesting, and I thought that Bradley fessing up to it with so much detail was a good reminder of how you can easily get yourself in trouble no matter how much skill and experience you have with something. You’re such a dick.

Noticing that you have an oversized negative impact on the world doesn’t make someone a busybody, it just makes them observant. If your brain is too smooth to understand ripple effects more than one layer deep that’s not their fault.

Those dumb leftists, always concerning themselves with what I’m doing when I roll coal in their windows or sell guns to kids who do school shootings. If those lefties actually read the Bible they’d know it says “me first fuck you.”

skeffles said “If people need a corporatespeak reason instead though, look at it like this”

It had never occurred to me that those would’ve been played in Australia, it’s funny which cultural things span the globe. Good memories!

Sounds like you already know a lot of my talking points haha. Beautiful house. My wife and I just bought our own ~100 year old house in the Rocky Mountains and one of the big things she wants to do is install solar panels. It might be an issue though because of how much sun the mountains block in the winter.

Oh how I miss Nova on fuzzy VHS tapes in a classroom, Nova and 1980s National Geographic specials.

There’s a beauty in this being on a hundred year old house too, the most sustainable house is the one that’s already there. I see so many houses scraped and one of the lame-ass justifications developers give is that the thing they’re building will be “green” even though it’s four times larger and they just put an…

He didn’t say “the cars obscenely rich people drive is the reason I’m glad I’m not obscenely rich, to the exclusion of all other reasons.”
