Scott Manley is awesome. I love his accent. If you watch a lot of his videos, he’s actually a programmer for Apple and loves going through and doing all of the math ahead of time for KSP.

Yeah, I’m over here giggling going “oh my god, I can’t believe this thing.”

I’ve had several close calls while towing trailers for exactly the opposite reason. Numerous times while towing race cars but my favorite was when I worked for the city in parks’ maintenance.

Which is one of the easier places to just blow the toll booth and pay online.

Great story! I’ve done a few long trips in the short time between now and when I got my endorsement (it was the first rebellious thing I did when I turned 18). Never once have I exclaimed in anguish “why do I do this to myself?!” as some people might. I know exactly why, I love to ride. And that's what doing something…

Is the drogue chute standard equipment for B-52s or is it some sort of short field kit? Either way, 5000 ft is pretty impressive for something that big.

I feel the same way about luxury wagons. At least with a luxury truck, if I do decide to throw a deer carcass in the bed, I can wash it out with a hose.

I even say it in my sexy Spanish accent in my head. Viva Manuel!

As the two hackers remotely toyed with the air-conditioning, radio, and windshield wipers, I mentally congratulated myself on my courage under pressure. That’s when they cut the transmission.

I am thoroughly pleased by how many KSP references there are here. Jebediah is my rock.

There’s nothing like crashing with friends. Or making new friends after crashing.

So they reverse engineered an old GM engine? If you’re worried about having an overpowered engine, the thing that really matters for fuel economy is BSFC (brake specific fuel consumption). You get better BSFC with a more efficient fuel burn and tech like direct injection, variable valve timing, etc. get you that.

Cool! I’m secretly rooting for these guys as an underdog. It may be somewhat un-Jalop of me but I like the idea of affordable efficient transportation for the masses even if it’s not for me.

I think she should leave the science to the scientists. Unless there is a moral issue with vaccine production, the health and safety decisions should be left to the experts.

+1 for Ishimura. I went back and started playing through Dead Space 1 again. That game kicks so much ass.

I thought it ate organic matter.

Chemicals huh?

I sort of skimmed through it, then went straight to the conclusion. : D
