I know it takes me almost a day to switch between "business mode" to "design mode" during product development phases. If I need to push around some HTML or CSS, it takes a seriously painful day to get back in the rhythm of coding. So its not surprising he'd be rusty, but its a strange thing when you sit down to work…

Only two people were in the bathroom. The third guy was arrested after a similar protest to that in the linked video.

Also winner of "Best Automotive Based Guillotine".

They don't respond well to UV exposure apparently. E-ink could be a really cool solution though...

Pragmatic move, didn't wanna risk getting blood on his new duds.

He was probably pretty nervous and forgot. I was nervous just watching it...

Yeah, but my left leg vertical is like 2x better than my right. Helps offset my abnormally strong right arm.

Oh man, I bet that was no fun. I guess that means they have to go from hover to forward flight really fast or the card will start winding that cable up real fast with no wind going through the chute.

I see tons of Apple products. A few MacBook Pros at the top right, some MagSafe chargers, Bluetooth keyboards and Magic Trackpads to the left. Who knows if any of it is legit though...

Show me the clutch pedal, Jerry! SHOW ME THE CLUTCH PEDAL!!!

With... fire?

Preach on! The problem isn't the fear of change, its the unbridled acceptance of it. Don't they see the truth of their progress? The truth behind the efficiency and the blind quest for speed that cuts man out of the equation?

No clutch, no contest.

May your solenoids seize, your software bug, your dual clutches slip and your paddles stick, heathen!

Stay strong my shifty brother, our day may soon pass, but we will not go quietly into the night! We will not vanish without a fight! We're going to live on! We're going to survive!

It is more than just a highway gear. Its a statement, a cry, it is an opus! A symbol of all that humanity has lost, a note to future generations that we were once capable of greatness. A monument screaming out, "We are more than just bags of flesh being toted around by computers and fancaaaaaay software!" Call it what…

I agree with #1. The problem is that #2 is causing the death of the manual transmission in the first place. If #2, then they have already done #3 by default.

I must have this.

Two bald astronauts fighting over a hairbrush, that's fantastic.
