the right way to "pilot" these things is via indirect input whereby the human never actually controls the vehicle. rather, the human operator makes requests of the pilot AI system for the vehicle to go to certain coordinates and then the thing pilots itself to that location. it is just like a cab. the passenger never…
wait wait wait - isn't having a third-party "crack" the iPhone a violation of DMCA? isn't it a freaking felony to try and work-around information systems protection features? isn't this one way they hammer hackers?
all of the technical replies, how to get into the phone, are beside the point. the FBI never, ever gave a single shit about what is on that phone. it was always a vehicle by which to set a legal precedent. this is also the way the supreme court works when it decides what cases to review. they never care about the case…
i predict 90% of commenters on this article will say in some way that the FBI bas been lying and are backing away for some strategic reason. there is simply no reason to trust any person in a government job for anything at all at any time for any reason. we can only assume they are lying and trying to manipulate us in…
I am not “addicted” to fossil fuels. Rather, I find I was born into a world in which I have no real alternative but to burn gasoline and natural gas. I did not make this choice, and I am ready to adopt a real alternative if and when it comes around. Please, bring it. Hell, I already bought an electric car that I drive…

the bends. massive, huge bends and instantly. gasses coming out of solution in your blood and all other body fluids. painful as fuck. I was a navy diver. this is Pressure 101. you do not want rapid decompression. ever.
why do we always skimp on the pants? it is like some fashion taboo, the pants thing. space helmet? no problem. transformers metallic-skin jacket with Kevlar armor and kangaroo hide in thirteen colors? check. mad max road warrior gloves with spikes and imbedded brass knuckles? yes. pants? sky-blue cotton. they are…
Oh, BTW - NSFW
"My memory of what happened there is a little foggy but
Are the bigger motors to make up for exhaust and noise restrictions or are they legit engineering improvements to actually evolve the bikes performance? When Harley bumped up their Softail engines from 88ci to 96 ci (and then to 110ci) it was to counteract the effects of restrictions imposed by EPA and it did not…
because government permission and cops makes everything legit.
I go with "Name of Vessel" for the win. 'Nuf said. Contest over.
Alchemy was never about physical materials, metals, gasses, ores, and The Stone was never a rock with magical powers. The perfected mind is The Stone, and the perfected Soul is the Gold. Lead is the base human self, the animal in mans clothing. Alchemy was a covert philosophy and a language that hid things from the…
this is why god made pellet rifles.
Beautiful stuff, that. BTW St Patty's day is actually the Bacchanal, the day of Dionysus, who is Osiris the Green Man. So, enjoy your debauchery/Egypto-Pagan celebration.
