Oliver People's Victory are awesome but so fucking expensive. I would say they're iconic for Burn Notice fans since they make kind of a big deal over them in the show.

Most EVs are poor conversions from traditional ICE powered vehicles. The reason is that it's expensive to develop a vehicle and to have a good EV, it needs to be on a dedicated platform. None of the major players want to invest the capital on a vehicle that may or may not pan out so they piggy back another platform to…

I used to live in Clarkston and work in Allen Park, Sterling Heights is just north of Detroit.

Sterling Heights is just north of Detroit, not terribly far from Chicago. Around a 4 hour drive.

Maybe it didn't come across like that but that was the intention. Making fun of conspiracy dipshits is easy and dismissive of their ludicrous ideas and I support doing it but it tends to leave out that conspiracy theories are insulting to the people involved. See: Buzz Aldrin punching a moon landing conspiracy moron.

I like that you present this in the light of absurdity that it is. There are real victims behind this, people whose lives are affected in a very serious manner. Saying that Sony willingly released personal information of thousands of employees simply to bolster a movie that might night have done well is insulting to…

Historically, Chrysler's transmissions have been awful. For example, I have a friend whose wife's minivan has had the trans replaced 4 times under warranty. Usually it is the Chrysler designed automatic transmissions since they tend to lean toward Getrag for manuals.

Now all they need is a way to make people shoot video in landscape.

Totally agree. In the height of the Cold War, defense spending was incredibly high and many projects were black projects as you said. There wasn't the outrage (well, as much) huge defense budgets either because a lot of the research and projects the general public didn't know about and the threat of global nuclear war…

True but shape charges require prep work that would get noticed as an act of terrorism. It takes weeks to set up building demolishions and something that could be easily placed probably wouldn't wouldn't be able to do that much damage. You'd need something like a truck full of explosives like the OKC federal building…

If I remember right, most of the Hyperloop proposal path followed existing highway corridors with some tunneling. Part of the issue was G-loading during turns. It would stand to reason that an ideal route would be somewhere with an existing relatively straight and level highway.

Also, if I remember the proposal correctly, the tube walls were something like 1.5" thick steel. Trying to use a bomb on it would probably not do as much damage as one might think.

I don't think it should be rules about the Internet. I think there should be a voluntary security standard established that is approved by the government or third party and regularly audited. How this gets enforced is beyond me, maybe there is a tax break for it or some other kind of incentive for complying with it.

What's "pedacyclist"? Is that pedestrians hit by cyclists?

You didn't stick with my bullets so I'll use with yours:

Then you're doomed and THEY ARE COMING FOR YOU! BWAHAHAHA!!!!!

Although funny, they kind of coped out by throwing out the general "most conspiracy theories." 2 things come to mind:
