Is it even possible to have an electric vehicle that doesn’t explode in an accident? Batteries....do that?

(since I didn’t see the videos I’m not trying to defend against “why the fuck did they explode in this case, buddy?”. The general case will be punctured batteries are going to get fucked up fast, and in collisions…

Thats because Neuromancer isn’t science fiction, its speculative fiction. This is a distinction lost on most and fought by many. They use almost entirely the same thematic and literal taxonomy. But one is intended to be- or at least ultimately is, who knows about intent - instructive about the current state of the…

I do believe it is the second cousin of the Dovahkiin

Could you save my browser history the burden of ancillary and unrelated results and summarize the actual meaning of the term? I’d appreciate it and apologize for asking you to carry the burden of educating me.

I’m wondering what planet truck-in-snow people come from. I’ve got a 3/4 Ton Chevrolet, and while it is *ok* in the snow, the AWD VW Tiguan my wife drives is absurdly better in the snow. I even did all the math last winter to figure out the optimal amount of sandbags, and read up on ideal location, and I would still…

Surprised to see Michael J. Anderson here. I thought we had cancelled him well and good.

I don’t remember a lot of details from Oxenfree, but I do strongly remember that 1) you need to play it twice to get the complete story and 2) I could not handle the repetition. I enjoyed that first run, but the way it is structured and styled completely put me off a second run.

Don’t the Sierra + Silverado sales stats slightly outstrip the F-150?

I’ve never heard of LSH so clearly you are wrong. 

In my books that horn is straight out of only one playbook. But I concede other opinions are available. 

Question seconded. What the hell is non-acetone nail polish remover?

Some of us think the first Matrix was the worst of the three.

...well, that would not be this exact scenario, would it? That would be a ...different scenario? Do you think adding a train horn to your scenario would have avoided the collision?

I’m of two minds. The red light runner is a common breed of asshole, and that common assholery is a daily problem for civilized people the world over.

I tried to like this book. A close friend of mine loves it as much as it is loved here. I made it about a third of the way and hated it from a very early way through that. Everything people find clever I found grating and obnoxious. A big part of that is the layout tricks, which felt like trying-to-hard shortcuts to…

Now you watch it again. The miata is not in the lane adjacent to the shoulder after executing a mid intersection lane change. There is no excuse for rolling though a red light, but the special horn had next to nothing to do with the outcome, and what it did contribute might have been equally delivered by a standard…

Apologies. My phone did it without my consent 😂

I’ve seen this upgrade before and now, as then, the owner is clearly a fucking asshole. If that isn’t illegal where they live (it is where I live) it should be.

Dune Messiah would be a trivial addition to any second part of Dune ( I have no idea where they split it, but there are a few natural places that come to mind). Messiah is by no means a bad book, but it was a terrible followup to Dune as you get such whiplash in pacing and energy. Nothing happens in Messiah. It’s a…

Someone should get that kid some OCR software he could have had it imported on his iPad in 5 minutes.
