Of course, trying to get someone to defend their opinion of beauty (or assuming that that’s what they’re doing) is rather silly.

What I am saying about preconceived notions is no one who has any reservation about the man made climate change narrative goes into that field because it’s at the bottom of the heap in terms of real groundbreaking science. As a result the field is an echo chamber.

Is it worth my time to undermine a highly funded large group of people who enter their field of study with preconceived notions about how the climate works?

Thanks for posting that! Here I was about to reply to him and state that intelligent conservatives may find offense at lumping a conservative political lean in with the idea that science should be rejected. Scientific reasoning may be beneficial or less convenient for one party or another, but science doesn’t follow…

Some of these were so bad that I started feeling more sympathy for the customer than the mechanic. Some of those people are obviously in need of a lot of help :-\

If there is one thing Jackie Chan taught me, is that if I can’t see it in one shot, it’s probably fake. I have no doubt the guy is good, but come on, show me the highlights real where they filmed it all in one go. I want to see his actual reaction time in slow motion from shot to cut.

And before they even got to a laughing judge, the DA would probably never take the case :)

The DA being lawyers and part of the courts, I would expect their responsibilities to be different than law enforcement officers who, as their name emplies, are meant to enforce laws. Part of that is gathering evidense, which if they discover they can’t intentionally hide. But surely there is evidense that ends up in…

I agree with you that it’s kind of crazy for them not to look at it. What I’m wondering is if they have a legal obligation to do so, or if passing it to the court is a legitimate and potentially (in some cases) a responsible thing to do.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t providing evidence and determining guilt not for the police, but for the courts? The police did their best to catch the right guy, and in doing so will provide evidence to the courts to have him convicted, shouldn’t this guy be providing this evidence to the alleged speeder?

Electric steering or amazing power steering? You couldn’t do that with my car, but it’s also old...

Disagree, too busy. This is how you do a dash.

I don’t know what kind of car that is at 2:56, but I don’t understand how he lost it. Attempting to trail brake with really heavy front wheel bias?

And not because they’d lose (though they very well may) but because there are two outcomes

You must have missed the bit about how “We invented the automobile, and then invented another automobile that could drive over 20 other automobiles”

You can think I’m an ass for expecting you to read the full conversation and I can think you’re an ass for not bothering with such trivial matters. We can agree to disagree, it works fine for me. We clearly have fundamental differences in web-etiquette. I’m not going to be turned on the subject and I couldn’t care…

Since when did sharing a general opinion with someone else mean that ones opinion and experience should not be voiced? Or even that I’m obligated to read all 122 responses before sharing my own thoughts? Or do I not understand you post correctly? It’s hard when you dance around but never specify what it is you think I…

My boss once told me to do something I considered to be too dangerous. I refused to do it, and I would have told him go fuck himself if he kept insisting.

I’d guess the reasons are safety, maintainability, and useful time.
