One of my dream Italian vacations involves cruising one of these around Tuscany. Oh that would be good, even for just the 5mins the Alfa works without a problem.

Remember?? I still love my daily driver - manual B7 S4!

Damn, that dog walking thing is freakin’ awesome! Someone will soon make a Chris Pratt taming the Teslas picture - or just replace the Raptors with Teslas.

Did you check the tire pressures? (Obligatory)

This was what I was thinking a while back - incentives to companies based on how much they can manufacture in the US & how much of their budget they allocate to R&D.

Apparently he’s also friends with the Chinese... after this pro-US move, he’ll have 1 billion less friends!

Turning it must be a nightmare! Couldn’t watch the video at work though.

You’re exactly right. It’s very heard to differentiate. I hope some day, there’ll be a small app-controlled guillotine that the woman can fit in her. Tap the app, chop his dingaling off. Of course, this would only work for men raping women. I don’t know the numbers but I’m sure this is pre-dominant.

It’s good to see the other side so that we can understand and act upon it. This is exactly what makes rapists, rapists! But, I still don’t get it. I don’t get how most rapists would take a particular “look” from the girl and assume it was ok to proceed - not matter what events lead to it. What’s the problem in just…

But the mount might be in your face, literally...!

So, in this conveyor belt of El Nino storms supposed to hit us in CA, when is the next one predicted? The first one was last week and it was awesome... and the next one is.........?

This is quite sad but it makes sense. The El Nino is pushing all the wet weather to us in CA which means there’s nothing for the Aussies.

Sort-of lucky for him, the relative lack of friction that made him slip & fall also helped him out once he was on his ass. If that had been a dry road, he would’ve ended up with bruises & wounds all over. He dissipated his energy over a longer distance by sliding.

Haven’t used a D810 but this is probably the first photographer’s bag I’ve seen without a folder of memory cards, backup drives & batteries - but this solution is obviously much more portable.

“Intellectual Apartheid”... you’re good!

Lol... true dat. Btw, how long did you spend in the grey-jail with your username? I love it! :)

Nothing new here... ancient civilizations did this with arches with the magic of keystone - the last stone at the very top that the crane places. Basic math: http://keystonearches.com/HTM/Building.h…

Well, they look like they’re Samsung’s Gear VR “powered by Oculus”... $99 on Amazon, price isn’t too bad.

Probably just semantics but replacing “found” with “detected” in the headline might be better... technically, we set up an experiment that is sensitive enough to detect gravitational waves. But that’s just me...

Well, it’s not so much about expectations... it’s like a kid who gets a red toy truck on Christmas. He’ll roll it around everywhere and after a few hours/days, the truck is just a burden to carry around. That’s what I mean by the novelty wearing off after the honeymoon period. But YMMV. It’s a subjective, personal…
