More to the sensible point, I still have on my life's to-do list to either a) convince the "Boneyard" to actually sell/let me buy/acquire through bribe a real F-16, deweaponized but still 100% flyable... or b) build a 1:1 scale "model F-16" with millions of dollars of lotto winnings/big corporate CEO…

Image just says "Go to [f-16.net] to view the picture". God I hate overzealous bandwidth control measures - they're useless with today's hosting packages. Methinks [F-16.net] needs a better webhost or web developer... >.<

Do tell! Or did you include it and it got axed out of your reply? Gizmodo's been fucking that up a lot lately... :/

Hey, A10 has its role, it's just a fugly pile of parts from a visual perspective. Kinda like an iPhone versus an Android. Android, lots of parts, lots of features, lots of junk "just in case you might need it"... but it's really a horrible cluttered mess. iPhone? Maybe missing some features, but it does its job, it…

It's not "one of". It is "THE" best plane of all time. No qualifiers needed. Not the best fighter, not the best jet, but the best ALL around. Maybe just my opinion, but that is one drop-dead sexy gorgeous piece of machine.

Where dafuq did all the pictures go?! GIZMODO, YOUR SITE STILL SUCKS.

SEXY. /drool

... too damn...

is just...

Just something about that plane...

This article makes me so goddamn happy. Nay: this whole STORY makes me so happy. Wait, same thing. The very concept that Lockheed and *maaaaybe* the USAF has actually listened to what lil'-ol'-me, a starry-eyed F-16 geek that would get an F-16 tattoo the moment I actually find a viable graphic to actually use as a…

Still partial to the standard USAF grey/grey scheme, myself... the cleaner they get the thing, the sexier. Just collects dust and grime so fast...

"The F-16, one of the most beautiful and capable fighter aircraft ever built and still plenty capable"

Fucking with Symantec? Really, guys? Damnit, Symantec is the only one that was actually saying "Geez, we really fucked up, maybe we should try fixing our broken-ass products", and was actually working on making its consumer products less craptastic (in my experience). Still wouldn't recommend them, but at least it's…

Maybe if we didn't live in a perpetual media spin cycle where nobody ever hears about the good things he does (which are mostly passive, slow-motion changes that push changes in the right direction, but don't have a shocking immediate effect)... but the media is all-too-happy to tell everyone he plays a few games of…

Interesting page. Doesn't even come close to adding up to the "trillions" of dollars people claim is the "national debt" though. And in the grand scheme of things, I don't ever recall having to send loan payments to China to pay down this "debt". The relatively small amount of money I pay out of my paycheck in taxes…

No, you still need to re-elect him into the office again. He doesn't just get a ration of "existing votes" just because he's sitting in office already. He still needs enough votes to beat out the opposing party. There's just as valid a reason this time around as there was the first time. He's still got to make up the…

What debt, you mean that imaginary "deficit" thing so loudly touted by armchair economists with no idea who the "debt" is even owed to? Right, that thing. Meh. Rack up a few more trillion, at least we might be able to get our manufacturing jobs back from China that way. Or just keep running our dried-up economy into…

I think you've missed the point a bit. See, personally, I can't afford anything of, near, or relating to "audiophile" equipment. Maybe second-hand. Once it's blown out. 10 years ago. Then I can pick it out of the junk pile and solder it back to life. I'm that guy that fixes the shit everyone throws out, I know a fair…

This article would make sense, if I even had an alternative to a "fake digital life"... the fuck else is there? Going *OUT*? In this godforsaken city? Fuck that noise. Blue guy in a red city in a blue state. Nobody here is worth a shit. I find much more excitement in debating politics on Facebook than I ever have…
