Also I did not know that they had a factory hard top on the 05 model Viper, which is just pathetic. That can’t be a proper photo of a normal viper, right?  Even the SRT-10 Viper had a hand lifted soft top.  The original was just: fuck you, build your own roof.

The first thing I would do if I bought a Viper would be to remove the airbags, because if I’m doing 200mph and I hit something that’s just a bomb that’s going to explode in my face right before the engine block crushes my legs and lower torso.

To be fair to the writers, they’re paid to post a certain number of articles a week.

You know they have to contract out for that because all of the car science people who aren’t tracy and torch left years ago, and they’re rather specialized in their focus. It’s kind of been like that since gawker was killed.

Effectively, any time a ferry would be shut down, so would an Ekranoplane, making it just an extremely expensive and wasteful way that we can already do something with the only benefit being speed.  Which is what killed the Concorde.

Regarding pink cars, Jez had a short article about this a long time ago

No offense, but Emily wins this one hands down.

It’s one of the best season 7 episodes, and for some reason it was also used as a plot point in the series finale of Enterprise, which was stupid and contrived and everyone hated it.

500k RUB is around $8012 USD

This is dodged by having everyone use different tech and also they don’t constantly have their shields up.  The Borg are way more advanced than most other species, but frankly if you’re the only civilization that doesn’t use cloaking tech you’d have to be crazy not to be on constant red alert.

Borg have physical strength, but apparently the center of balance of toddlers.  Maybe the implants screw up the inner-ear?

This is the correct answer, and they actually sort of deal with this in the episode “The Pegasus” which involves the Federation developing a cloaking system based on phase-shifting, which is effectively just putting the whole ship into a transporter field:

Well, not perfected yet...

Police can’t search you or your car without probable cause, and in non-crash situations that usually means personal observation. What happens when they can remote into anyone’s car at any time and observe you that way?

If they’re owned by companies outright instead of just being manufactured by companies and then sold to private owners, injured parties should be able to sue the companies.

Sidewalk robots may also face disruptions to their own routines, including curious bystanders blocking their paths and thieves looking to snatch a package en route. The latter problem could be solved with remote-controllable locking mechanisms on packages. Still, one video shows a delivery robot being temporarily…

Thank you, I refuse to believe that the Franzia family has anything so ostentatious as swarovski-encrusted wine cave.  What’s next, a golden bathtub for your gin?

Hey, a PRV engine can’t do tha-

Laguna would be great but it’s not grade 1 and they’re having a hell of a problem with the usual NIMBY-come-lately types. Don’t move next to a race track and then complain about the racing!
