First off, the Bolt is following the same design constraints as the BMW i3, but at half the price, to keep the weight down for what is primarily an in-town car.

Really, the big mistake is not packaging the thing as a previous-gen ‘Nox with a GMC badge and body. A slightly upmarket plug-in crossover wagon, and it’ll…

OMG, can’t people do basic math in their heads? Just remember that F & C cross at -40 and the ratio is 5C = 9F?

automakers warn that no matter how reliable these features are — and no matter what brand names such as Autopilot and Drive Pilot imply — drivers must remain alert and engaged at all times.

Like Nascar, hydroplane racing seems like one of those sports where fans only watch in hopes of seeing a spectacular crash.

Stef, if Porsche wants to compete with the BMW X6 M along with the AMG GLE, I say, let them. Surely, a coupe-like SUV is more Porsche than a G-wagen.

Dude, compression shirts exist!

So what shoes *are* you wearing? Marshmallows?

I fucking love my VFFs.

While “barefoot running” (i.e. minimalist shoes) won’t necessarily help you run faster tomorrow, it appears to help people log significantly more miles each year, simply because they don’t get injured from constant heel-striking and turned ankles. Not only do they prevent miles from going down while you’re injured,…

And then there are motorcycle crashes, which invariably end up in the ER or the morgue...

Exactly. Once they were redeemed, they were paid and counted toward the box office. Whereas the marketing spend on behind the curtain is merely a marketing cost, but it doesn’t subtract from the gross.

I wonder if Warner rebated T-Mo with marketing $$$ to get butts in seats for the biggest August opening...

Marvel did it...

I wonder how big the week-over-week drop will be. Will SS break the BvS record for biggest 2nd weekend drop? Stay tuned!

Also, look at historical suits of armor. It’s like armor for kids.

That’s not just Olympic-level athletes. It’s pretty much every athlete who does intensive impact type work on a daily basis.

Just about every heel-striking runner I know gets their ankle / foot injured every year. It’s pretty much a rule. And then their knees go out.

Every pitcher / thrower eventually tears up their…

No, this is the baby brother to the baby brother to the GAU-8.

A lot of the code development pace depends on how good the software management team is, and how well the code itself was designed. If they had a good team, a good architect, and a good manager who really knows what he fuck he’s doing, they could knock it out with a lot more parallelism and speed. However, the history…

Let’s see. Compared with the A-10, the F-35's cannon is inferior in every possible way:

So, it’s like the the F-16 gun pod experiment that failed big time?
