So, as of now, this is a mystery; someone seems to have a very capable jetpack, and also seems to have not much sense, since flying it in this very busy flight path is a terrible idea and could potentially cause real trouble.

It’s bad in the “making money” way, not in the “they’ve worked out all the kinks and they’re cheap to mod and run now” way.

They’re definitely saving the big-ass wing for the ZR1, because the last ZR1 came with the BAS - Big Ass Supercharger.

I’m genuinely impressed that they’re advertising it as being intended to be raced, as is from the factory.

Can we just replace nascar with supercars?

I think one of the weird things about learning about the death of someone who I respected so much is how I reacted when I heard.

Goddamnit man, I’m at work right now.

Online echo chambers aren’t a matter of a lack of ‘normal’ socialization, they exist because ‘normal’ socialization i.e. face-to-face puts you in situations where you deal with people that you 1) probably don’t like or respect very much to begin with and 2) have nothing in common with aside from what put you both in…

This article reminded me that we don’t have any specific out and out genocides going on and haven’t really for a while. We’ve had civil wars and ethnic cleansing but most of that results in refugees instead of specific and intentional mass murder ala Rawanda and Yugoslavia in the 90s.

Does Samsung have a store? Android allows you to use other store apps besides Google Play.

Can you cover your portion of the rent and observe personal space expectations?

Yeah that’s gonna show up in at least one animated blockbuster at some point.

It’ll be like the NIO, or along the lines of the FXX, except they can actually possess the car instead of paying for the privilege of accessing it sometimes. Track only, only with Lotus techs there to look after it.

Part of being a team principal is using judgement and connections to hire the right people. Claire’s problems have stemmed from a consistent unwillingness to change things from how her father did them, or a lack of confidence in doing so, or the entirely valid and perhaps likely possibility that her father is using…

“I drive one when I go to the country club, and one when I go check on my rental properties.’

The sad thing is that their victims hate the rest of us so much that they are happy to be scammed. So the real question is: how do we get on on scamming them?

Yeah the main thing Haas is doing is surviving. They’ll see what the budget cap changes offer them as they approach and we get a better idea of how other teams are going to cope, mainly the big ones. Remember that Ferrari is still getting data from them in part exchange for parts, just not wind tunnel access or…
