The canned keyboard controls are a load of hot garbage. Might as well try playing Top Gun with the Power Glove. I only beat the RC missions on PC using Keyboard/mouse by entirely redoing the controls to something that makes sense.

Thankfully, by the time this game got ported to Android/iOS the RC controls were much…

Nope, the taillights have to be on a fixed piece of body work.  The mini clubman's first appearance in the us featured cut outs in the barn doors for the taillights to poke through.

Just wanted to let you know, you are an absolute hero of the internets for me today.  I even gave them a $10 donation.

Also note, the airline has to participate in the program too. There’s a small number of airlines that do not. Qatar is probably the most notable as they code-share with American Airlines and fly to/from many US airports. However, since they do code-share with a TSAPre participant, you can just buy your ticket from AA…

No, the consensus among neurologists is “we need more research” The one major study declared the link through post-mortem examination of donor brains which isn’t the best data. So instead of saying “hey, let’s help someone do some additional research and acquire better data” The NFLPA essentially declared “FAKE NEWS”…

The union offered to take a pay cut with the ONLY condition being that the pension remain funded. But again, the Chapter 11 train had already left the station by the time that happened.  The union had fuck-all to do with Hostess going tits up.  The execs didn’t give a fuck because they had a pension fund to raid.

The “Interview” for Global Entry was just me sitting with a customs officer to confirm my identity, check my passport, and take my picture. It’s only slightly more invasive than a job application or firearm purchase. If you have a concealed carry license it’s likely less invasive.

The other thing is if the one person in the family that has Precheck buys the tickets, then usually the family or at least a couple of you get Precheck on your tix as well.

The card wasn’t optional for me, but it’s only useful for getting me into Canada if I drive there.

It has to say Pre Check on your boarding pass.  When you sign up for Global Entry or TSAPre and are qualified, you’ll get a Known Traveler Number, when you book your flight you’ll need to enter this in.  The Global Entry card is only useful when entering Canada (and only Canada) by car.  If you fly into Canada you’ll…

Like any bureaucracy, rules are subject to change “because reasons” even says so before you hand over the money. 

While the DFW Terminal C Pre check line is the most hellaciously long Pre Check line EVER (often stretching to the C10 checkpoint Monday morning). I assure you, it moves at a far faster pace than the regular security line. Pre Check is mostly frequent travelers that have their shit in order and get through as fast as…

Some airports don’t have a fully separate Pre-Check line, so if your bag is going through the same scanner as everyone else, you gotta remove your electronics. (This is the case in a lot of smaller airports).

Hostess filed for Bankruptcy in January 2012. The Union didn’t go on strike until July of 2012. The Union was not the reason Hostess went bankrupt. The hedge funds that owned Hostess at that time saw a shitload of cash in a pension fund they could raid and went with it. Eddie Lampert and his asshole friend Steve…

How do you have time to comment here with all your pulling of bootstraps?

I’m pretty sure in the wake of Enron all pension and 401(k) retirement funds diversified. There were many companies prior to Enron that just went whole hog into company stock.  After Enron most everyone was forced to offer diversified retirement plans.

Especially given the fact the NFL players union has done fuck-all about CTE.

Wow, that’s a pretty good insight into that whole crash of the NYC medallion market. I didn’t know that there was some behind the scenes manipulation going on. All it would have taken to possibly make that bubble burst would have been another recession.

I would have figured the contrast between uber/lyft’s customer…

they’d be assigned specific areas and time blocks, with no flexibility (hmm, like a cab company?).

The diesel is an option on the tremor.  The reason the power wagon doesn't have a diesel option is a six cylinder diesel needs more room front to back in the engine bay.
