You’re describing an aircraft carrier..at least for the landing part, but I think I recall reading a few years back that the newest/next gen of Navy catapult systems are electromagnetic instead of steam driven, so maybe energy recapture is part of that deal.

I get the idea of doing a big, splashy collaborative project with folks from multiple HGTV shows together...but I project they chose seems confusingly odd, kinda dumb.

I honestly wonder if doing the costuming and set design for this film took those responsible into some dark, creepy-ass places—online or otherwise to obtain so much Nazi paraphernalia.

It’s been a favorite of mine since they introduced it in (guessing) early 90s. But I also never saw anyone else order it, so honestly I’ve been surprised the double decker has stuck around as long as it has.

Well said. Growing up in the 80s-90s, the messaging was about keeping our planet clean, not polluting the air and waterways.

Mr. Kahn, I enjoyed this article for the content, but really wanted to chime in to say that the format of the article is superb. Instead of the conversational way journalists typically weave in quotes by people they’ve interviewed on a subject, I really like how you’ve done it here. Not sure how to describe it: each…

Agreed. Anytime I am browsing for a new program to watch I mute the TV. If they just extended the auto-start on the preview to 5.0 seconds, instead of the 1-2 seconds, it would make a world of difference, I think.

This is odd news to me, since the Netflix app on my LG OLED smart TV has always (or at least for quite some time) had “Recently Added” and “Trending” (or is it “Popular”?) sections.

Points for Bender quote in an article about robots killing all humans.

If they make another Baja, they need to do it right this time and bring it down market. I think the original flopped because it was based on the Legacy platform, making it big and expensive for a niche vehicle. I’m convinced it would be a hit if they build a ute-ish Brat successor on the Impreza platform instead. Give…

I do a bit of slinging myself (casting, in google speak), but when reading that a show or network is made for mobile consumption, I am imagining it could impact formatting of the show. Like, if designed for small screen viewing, they might crop in closer on people’s faces, display text/titles/ credits larger, and have…

Ah, public transit! Yep, that makes sense. The midwest city I call home isn’t blessed with any sort of great railed transit system, so that hadn’t occurred to me (though it should have, as I enjoy riding Metra when in Chicago!).

Nothing makes me feel like more of a dinosaur than learning that watching full-length TV shows on phones is such a common and popular activity that there are whole networks dedicated to the platform.

I’m on my 3rd Moto in a row (Moto X, X gen 2, Z Play gen 1) and I worry about them going away due to lack of popularity and not getting enough attention for not playing in the highest level of the phone market. Aside from having only mediocre (but still fine) cameras, they do everything I want. I’ve been all about the…

The skater kid’s got flies buzzing around him. What far right trope is being illustrated here, that progressives let their kids get stinky and don’t teach them personal hygiene?

I was thinking the same thing when I read the headline: What if it was some anglophile flying the Union Jack? Bet we wouldn’t be reading this story.

I was wondering how they pronounce it there, as someone familiar with “Ver-SALES”, Kentucky and “Leb-inin”, Ohio.

My Wife’s 2012 Mazda 3 has a start/stop push button ignition. I know for a fact that the engine can be turned off with the trans still in drive because I’ve accidentally done it several times by forgetting to put the car in park first (my car is a manual and I don’t drive autos often).

I have watched The Heat more than once. I think it’s her best work to date. 

Perfect: It’s for millenials (pushing 40 this year) to take their teen and preteen kids to for a whole family scare fest!
