It’s out drinking with 12oz Mouse.

Ah, yes, the highly unfortunate Wilford Brimley / Baleen whale phase for Lincoln.

Buick Rendezvous. Just looking at the first gen makes me physically angry, like some sort of reptillian fight or flight response. Kill them all with fire.

Stansted is seeing a lot of action this week. The aircraft collision with a ground crew truck (which then just... went back to it, passing behind the engines) a few dozen yards from the terminal a few days ago also happened there.

We’re so close!

Oh man, that silhouette is just begging for some light NSFW Sharpie editing.

Hakkas are life.

Minor, but quite important correction. The battery in this bike is not 350 kWh, it’s Mahle’s 236wH model.

They’re cyclocross bikes. Some models do have further, increased clearance beyond typical 36-42mm cyclocross profile tires, up to ~60mm or so. We’re basically talking MTB tires at that point (~2.25-2.5"), but most still target around 42mm.

Yeah, in this case the bike is a 3T Racemax Boost cyclocross ebike, but with the “BMW X” branding. It’s a bit confusing from the way that it was written out and due to the brand being... well, 3T, as opposed to sensible letters.

Third self reply. I suppose Bob was referring to the bottom dip there, which makes sense.

I fully admit that I am not a stonksman, but pulling up a market graph shows TSLA at $238.13 on October 6, 2022, and at $250.91 as of this morning (October 6, 2023, in case Kinja tries to murder timestamps at some point).

My hot take is very similar. Those in-engine concerts were a great, creative outlet and added a lot of fun at a time when people needed it. They were also pretty neat from a technical perspective.

The effort to recoup costs was always a last ditch hail Mary.

Inverted, likely trapped and with an intense, self-fueled fire burning down from directly above them.

Cocoon!

This ties into my “old bastard” problem, where I work long hours, and have a kid, and I don’t have nearly the gaming time that I used to have. So while I enjoy the game, I’ve not touched crafting (for instance) because I simply haven’t yet had sufficient time to not only gain enough levels to unlock everything I…
