Frustrates me how “sure” that the arresting officer was that he caught the “right guy”

Hate the merger all you want. Verizon’s the only company that’s not yet a major player in the broadband market that can give Comcast and TWC a run for their money. In this case, a strong Verizon increases competition in that market.

It’s a product in search of a market. It sounds like a human factor disaster and something I would never want.

Tony Stark made a near-invincible suit of armor running an AI as its OS and powered by a palm sized arc reactor.

Wanna never visit your dumb chiropractor again? Lift weights! Yoga is great, I enjoy it every few weeks just to pop it into my routine, but it’s a) very time consuming and b) not at all effective for gaining strength. It’s a supplement to a good workout routine. Helps with balance and flexibility, and clears the mind.

Luckily the new Conservative majority will kick the EU out of the UK and you won’t have to worry about any of this.

So, it's hard to talk about American food without talking about fast food, junk food or chemicals? Why not talk about how one American farmer in 1960 fed 26 other people and today that farmer feeds 155 people worldwide?

No we don’t. They estimate 5 million people use that route by plane or car every year. They also estimate the ticket will be $90 today... who knows in 2030 when its finished., if ever.

Still more power than any Mercedes or BMW at the time. Heck, Rolls Royce was getting 172hp out of 6.2 liters, and that was before the EPA.

Or you could pay significantly more for a 200hp Ferrari from the same era.

Yes.

I think most police departments are pretty ok with you meeting in their parking lot as well.

IIRC the Mercedes GL doesn’t actually share a chassis with any car, just SUVs (and the R-Class, whatever you consider that to be). But other than that, completely agree

My phone’s LTE isn’t 100% reliable everywhere, and when I have a bunch of people in the car I’d prefer to keep them from draining my data.

LOL speak for yourself. In-car wifi is legit.

Yeah except Ferrari is the rich asshole of automakers, so it’s unlikely to happen.

The endless stream of folks falling all over themselves to blame the cartoonists as “asking for it”, while excusing the acts of the terrorists, is almost more fascinating than the knee-jerk brainwashed “behead those who slander the prophet” reaction of the terrorists.

No matter how many times it happens, I am still flabbergasted that people could be driven on a suicidal murderous rampage because somebody drew a cartoon of their flying spaghetti monster.

My folks had a similar story. The leased a ‘11 F150 SuperCrew Lariat, 5.0L V8, longer box.
