Or turbofans...

instead of Ken Block's mustang I'll take his custom RaptorTrax

Ding ding ding! Good idea for low speed applications in rough environments, but they'll never work well at speed due to the inevitable vibration characteristics. I'd strongly consider a set of these in a large footprint, soft application for an offroad vehicle, but the amount of shaking that would result from any…

Maybe you misunderstood. this thing works off bluetooth. I can't imagine a theif stealing a police officer's gun and then pairing it to his phone.

Whay would the NRA care if it is just monitoring Police use of weapons while on the job?

As a gun owner, I have no problem with this type of tech being used for police officers which use guns as part of their job. But there is no way this would be acceptable if it was forced on consumer guns. The government has no right to track how often I shoot a gun at a range or while hunting. That is a pure invasion…

Don't be a hater.

Feel like I've played in the Pullman Arcade before...

Which is why vaccines exist right? Since it would be more profitable to treat a lifelong infection of hepatitis, we don't give a low cost vaccine to avoid that outcome, right?

Of course you're drinking a PBR. Of course you are.

They made it! Landing gear has been retracted and the harpoons have fired, telemetry is coming back and it looks like it has been a complete succes!

USA! USA! US.....oh wait..

I blame The Brave Little Toaster for my anthropomorphized robot sensitivity. That crap traumatized me as a child.

Yes - The FDA and other regulatory bodies stop "Miracle Drugs" from reaching market because they adhere to a strict level of quality backed up by scientific and mathematically sound proof of effectiveness. So basically it's the type of argument where "Oh but it worked in ONE case so therefore it must work!" but the…

Drug trials hold up and hold back potential treatments to rare diseases, especially to people who can't make it into the trials. However, the benefit of said treatments isn't all that clear, yet patients and families still understandably grab at whatever hope they can find. Are regulatory bodies at fault for being…

Diseases are bad Mmmkay, one of them is killing boys and there is no treatment. Trials of a potential treatment aren't showing a meaningful statistical improvement despite anecdotal evidence of improvement, so the drug isn't getting approved. The parents and kids are sad and mad that the drug isn't approved anyways.…

A lot of the increase in cancer deaths is probably from people not dying of the other stuff first.

Agreed wagons are practical. A performance or luxury wagon is an oxymoron.

@lankybits: Sure, of course it is. The true answer lies in the back of what Ray drove to his high school reunion.
