She wasn't attractive in the least, except for a relatively athletic and healthy looking build, which you should expect from any character that requires physical attributes to be the protagonist. Otherwise, yes, scars, missing limbs, shaved head on one side, I don't honestly see how they were attempting to make her…

Yes, Energy supply is a big motivator, but I don't buy it as a US motivator in this particular case. Given all the recent trouble, the US doesn't actually import much oil from the middle east, and as far as I can tell zero from Russia and the Ukraine. http://www.npr.org/2012/04/11/150…

Well, given that the Russian move is so out in the open (I have to toss another globe in the trash because they redrew the boarders) it is easier to suspect the only other players (The West) of having more conspiracy laced motives, since their motives are less obvious. That said, the country that gained the most is by…

Interesting. I tend to like my news to at least try and not sound biased. The entire thing is littered with inflammatory descriptions with no backing. Things like this (emphasis mine):

The US spending 4 billion with the line item "overthrow Ukraine government" is news to me. Do you have a link I can use to educate myself?

The scariest snow covered roads I've ever driven on are also the most fun summer roads I've ever driven on.

For the fun of it I did a little math. Suppose the following:

I'm open to witnesses or other cameras that show otherwise, but if that is road rage it's the most poorly executed road rage ever, and there is a lot stupid in the road rage world to beat.

My understanding is that the lawsuit won't be about what initiated the accident, but rather to answer the question "should the occupants have survived this crash given some standard or average".

they could have a case, if inly because MANY cars get in high speed crashes on freeways, highways, and tracks, and having both occupants burn to death is rare. So rare I've never heard if it. I've heard of cars rolling over and crushing the hand of the driver as it flew out the window, but not burning to death.

If MPG is the only way you compare cars, you might be on the wrong forum :-\

wtf happens to his voice at 1:35? Is he doing an impression or did a Dutch Daffy Duck snatch the mic?

I don't like it. What I want to see is them say "We did test A one hundred times with a loaded key ring and got a failure rate of 50%, and did it again with a single key and got 0%".

You make a good point. Maybe the target user and financial backer doesn't use instagram, but their young lackey who carries out all the work does.

Though I do find that as the model number goes up, dedicated forum members make a steady transition from suggesting zip ties to "take it to the dealer, obviously".

I feel a little clarification could be used, since this is the most powerful production BMW vehicle, but not the most powerful production BMW engine. The engine in the McLaren F1 still has this beat by a significant number of ponies.

Before I say this, I'll add the caveat that I'm a software engineer.

This hack makes Taco Bell look bad. Unless you are suggesting it was funded by BurgerKing?

While I also hate it, I also hate what the media did to it first. "Hacking" and "hackers" we're not inherently bad, they were just people that liked manipulating systems using software. A "good hack" was a clever bit of programming. For the evil form of hacking see "cracking". This article qualifies as a hack, as it's…

They make helmets for fucking?
