Please be a troll...

If anything, it’s just made me more fearful. Imagine we have a properly deadly virus. I sure as hell hope we don’t do what we did with this one. “Hey guys. There’s this virus that’s spreading like wildfire. So we are going to go into lockdown and ban all incoming flights... starting three days from now at midnight.”

Not gonna say this is a perfect solution, but you clearly didn't read the article, lol.

Imagine developing groundbreaking, commercially viable 2nm chip technology, but only being referred to as “Apple Supplier” in the article headline. I’d be pissed.

“U-Boat Worx’s new Nexus is limited to dives of 200 meters, or around 650 feet below the surface—roughly half the distance to the Titanic’s wreckage.” Read more

For someone who likes fun, ridiculous things, but lives in the city, I don’t think it’s THAT unreasonable that someone might choose this as a fun alternative to a moped, or a bike. Just as people ride One-Wheels, or skateboards, or longboards to work, some ride scooters. And this is the #RACECAR version of a scooter.… Read more

He’s talking about the actual production wheels being developed by actual tire manufacturers, lol.

It’s worth noting that one issue with Nuclear Power is that it was basically never allowed to mature before being “canceled.” Modern-day reactor designs are just SO much safer than the decades-old reactors we are currently running - which themselves are incredibly safe when you look at the numbers.

But because everyone… Read more

I’m sure it isn’t perfect either, but one of the nice things about going all-out on my home network and setting up a Ubiquiti Dream Machine Pro, is that I have my own self-hosted VPN! (And before anyone asks, no I don’t have their cloud access enabled, so that isn’t an issue :P)

Huh? 5-60 MPH test results are usually SLOWER than 0-60 MPH test results. The whole point of a 5-60 MPH test is to provide a much more real-world number that eliminates the violent, drive-train-destroying, high-RPM, drop-clutch launch that testers perform to get the best times. A 5-60 time will almost ALWAYS be slower… Read more

“no a Bronco Sport in any trim is not an appropriate vehicle for this trail”

“Could and experienced driver navigate one down this trail? Sure.”

So which is it? Is it that the vehicle is inadequate, or that the person behind the wheel was? If it’s the vehicle, then are you suggesting that she’d have been fine if she was… Read more

Can we stop with the hyperbole about this vehicle? It’s more than capable of doing some relatively bad-ass off-roading. It’s definitely not a fucking Corolla.

The passenger sustained serious injuries because she was ejected. It’s not really the fault of the vehicle if people don’t wear their seatbelts.

Wat about that yearly trip to IKEA. How does your Cruz Diesel cope with that? Shouldn't you have just bought a pickup truck to deal with all your yearly scenarios?

Yeah, no. Patents absolutely have a place, and - among other things - protect the little guy with limited means from having his idea ripped off by some large corporation with unlimited funds.

It’s been easy AF to stream everything Olympics related via YouTube TV... in 4K HDR no less!

The Wright Brothers’ first flight lasted 12 seconds and covered 120 feet. What exactly is your point?
