I was talking about Spock (the second star of Star Trek and a metaphorical star) being the second star to the right, because Leonard Nimoy’s dead, damnit. And everybody knows it’s from Peter Pan. That’s the implied wink when Kirk says it.

It’s almost certainly not. Perhaps a smaller team, like the one that did Korra, but this would not be Platinum’s next big thing.

Doug. Wtf?

It is not an option that is built in or not like sunroof or AC. For instance, let's say that Ford announces that they will support both. Support for both is then added in the headunit at the factory. It is not like they ship a system with either one or the other. If the headunit supports one it will support the other…

Is it just me or is Kim Jong-un looking chunkier than ever?

That DeMuro punk stole my bag before he was even a twinkle in his pappy's eye.

In addition, it is clear that a defense spending bill (NDAA) will not make it to the President's desk with the A-10's funding being omitted from the text.

There was a simmering anger about people like me — "Social Justice Warriors", as they call us — who are asking for change in the game industry: a better, broader representation of characters, among other things. We're "the cancer that's killing games", and Kotaku is seen as the key enemy site, with Polygon a close…

Boeing will get them there, pretty much guaranteed. It'll cost more but they have a track record of bringing successful projects to market.

To be honest this is not really an entry level bike, although lots of people think 700cc is "Small" today. It's really not. Whether you want to pay the tariff for the anime look is a matter of personal preference. Honda's are reliable, last a long time and are usually not hard to maintain. Darn good bikes.

Interesting write-up on a motorcycle which is unfamiliar to many experienced riders.

But US labor law man will save us all!!!!!!!!!!

I think these companies should take a look at executive, marketing, and legal salaries and expenses before the workers. The waste is there, but it isn't because of workers. (you know, the ones that actually build the cars)

Our wage and worker protection laws are so bad that big European companies are moving manufacturing here. Many states want these factories, even though they pay below the median income, because their politicians have been paid to want these factories. Some of these same politicians also passed laws making it harder…

If you think having no human to space capability is ok, then you agree with NASA. That is my point- we are in this spot because the priority has been to see manned space capability as not important. I disagree and I see manned space travel as important.

You can't just look at the cost of building Endeavor, because they were using the results of all the other Shuttle program R&D. You're also ignoring per-launch costs such as refurbishing the reusable components.

NASA has a budget of 16.5$ and spent around 2 billion on the current Mars probe mission-or around 12% of their total annual budget. So, yes, I not only have a 'clue' ,I actually look up the numbers. Space Shuttle Endeavor -the replacement for Challenger- cost 1.7 $ to build. So, silly laughter on your part does not…

"For the cost of the Mars probes- which is NASA's money appropriated by Congress, we could have built ongoing man- to space capability"

NASA publicly admitted that because the ISS could not be reached by a standard shuttle, the Challenger could not use it and was doomed. If NASA had manned missions as priority, the ISS would be a real space station and available to Challenger. For the cost of the Mars probes- which is NASA's money appropriated by…
