Who here doesn’t remember where iconic cinderellas like Florida Gulf Coast and George Mason qualified for the Sweet 16?

Simple: Use them in places where cars should be slowing down anyways.

Yes, thank you. The force is not “wasted” normally on the road as the article states. Sure, some of the force probably goes to breaking down the roadway which it would certainly be nice to avoid, but this will almost certianly cause cars’ engines to work incrementally harder, cancelling out any gains. If anything,…

I was wondering the same thing. If we’re slogging through roads, rather than rolling over them, in a tiny sense, are we really creating energy? It seems like strapping a wind turbine to the front of your scooter and letting the generated energy shove you along. It’s a diminished return.

So do they manage to do this without increasing rolling resistance to the cars? If the road deforms more than typical asphalt, they really wouldn’t be capturing lost energy as much as taking energy from people’s cars (which aren’t exactly thermodynamically efficient to begin with)

“Bridgestone is hoping to have its airless bike tires ready for consumers by 2019, just ahead of the 2020 Tokyo Summer Olympics, although it remains to be seen if they’ll be approved for official cycling competition in time.”

He has praised the new administration for its power to “change the course of America in ways that are biblical.”

Do you think Trump will ever attend? Do you think Trump will ever recite Two Corinthians?

I’m not particularly religious, but one of the things that makes me sincerely hope that hell exists is so these evil people who do things in the name of Christianity, even though most of those things clearly violate the most basic principles of the religion, get an awful shock when they die and discover that God…

FWIW, I am a United elite passenger and I’m often the last person to board the plane for the reason you give. My seat is reserved, I don’t need overhead bin space, and I’d just as soon spend as little time as possible on the plane.

Same. I’m about to be in this seat for 2+ hours. I dont want to add an extra 15 minutes in that seat just so i can awkwardly watch and make eye contact with all of the people boarding behind me (especially when you’re in first class). I always only bring a carry on that can fit under the seat as well.

I’ve never understood why “elites” get boarded first. Since you’re going to spend hours in the same spot, I’d try to minimize this as much as possible. Furthermore this would maximize the time they could spend in the lounges. The only advantage boarding first would give is having first access to the storage bins,…

Wait. Are you telling me there are people who get on a plane and immediately throw their shit into the first overhead bin they see? Simply because they don’t want to carry their carry on to the back of the plane? That’s fucking loony toons. Your carry on should go as close to directly above you as possible. You’re…

While the WilMA method may be one of the most efficient (at least according to Mythbusters), I would think that this method would break down when you have groups of travelers that would require boarding at the same time and would typically sit in the same rows (like families with younger kids). I know I watched the…
