But you did say "Because we haven't lost another plane to terrorists in America since September 11th, 2001, you could argue that the agency has fulfilled a successful mission." Almost implying that they are better than the private security before.

Death machines? They aren't that big of a deal. Still, forgetting them in your carry on is pretty bad.

Yeah, if they delay your flight and try to give your luggage back—refuse to take it and report that person behind the desk as having an unregistered handgun.

No expert, but carbs had accelerator pumps or whatever that would spray gas if you hit the throttle quickly. Maybe that's how "give it some gas" and then "gas pedal" came along. Someone should investigate.

Throttle? Yes. Gas pedal? No. It stopped being the gas pedal after EFI came along.

This is it. You're trying to do the polar opposite: show how much of a bad ass you think you are. Then it all goes crashingly wrong.

A variation, the scandinavian flip.

"Try and say it wasn't you." It's been tried many times, but courts have upheld that sending tickets to the registered owner is A-Okay. How do they do this? Red-light camera violations are usually civil offenses instead of criminal ones, to get around that pesky bill of rights with a lower barrier of proof.

Not so sure. It's very hard to enforce, so I wonder if people wouldn't litter more to "get their monies worth" or something dumb.

It's similar to weddings, marking up by playing on your emotions. A single company owns most funeral homes in America, driving up prices. Bullshit! did a good episode on this: https://www.youtube.com/results?search…

Yeah, the mentioned they used Linux for their screens years ago.

Very separate. Pretty sure OBD-II spec mandates BCM, ECM, et al. to run off CAN. And no manufacturer worth its salt would combine the two, save for the usual OBD port stuff.

It's interesting how drones are making formerly very expensive shots cheap and accessible for the hobbyist film maker.

I combine driving smarter and faster. By "faster" I mean slightly above the pace of most people unless they are going 75-80mph already, which is as fast as I feel comfortable on my route. If there's traffic I give up trying to pass and focus on "smarter", where I've learned the best lane to be in during the same…

Didn't think twice about that, but didn't seem to eager to pull out in the the cross traffic. So they yielded to the cross traffic in the middle on the tracks. Didn't think that far ahead.

They failed to take in to account the other side of the crossing where cross car traffic was occuring. They get across most of the tracks then realize they are about to barge into an intersection. So they, sensibly, yield to the traffic.

That's... weird. If you hit a ped the bolts that replaced the foam wouldn't come out... and if you hit a car they'd both be fucked up anyway so it wouldn't make that much of a difference. Other than giving less predictably causing more injury to him, probably.

Good luck from the AARP and other lobbies. We definitely have a driving aptitude problem. I agree with you—but it's just not feasible to get the 99% of drivers to pay more attention before reducing driver's aids in all vehicles. Those 99% would rather be doing something other than driving and not much is going to…

Damnit. Came here to make this, got all my hopes up and then the last comment gets me.

I guess you all have never seen what a VBIED can do...
