Fair point, but there are probably other factors that could be used to determine some sort of likelihood (time of day, season, weather, traffic levels, etc).

My view on the AI driving/writing/whatever debate is that it should always act as a humble assistant to the driver/author/whoever, providing advice while leaving humans in control. With that arrangement, I believe we’ll be able to do some pretty amazing things. But if you switch it, the vigilance problem arises, and…

The only thing I can think of is

Have you been waiting for Robert De Niro’s Waiting?

Did you know there’s an obscure English law allowing minors to get behind the wheel of a Morris Minor — but only if they are registered members of a Morris dancing troupe.

That is exactly what it sounds like.

I’d be very interested to know more about Gwynne Shotwell and her interactions with Musk (beyond the PR). What does it take to actually keep a Musk company running successfully? (At this point, I suspect he has very little to do with it.)

We’ve seen The Pope’s Exorcist starring Russell Crowe, but what about The Exorcist’s Pope? Or The Last Exorcism Part 3: Sorry, This Is Definitely The *Last* Exorcism, For Real This Time?

Reason 1: the awesome 45-minute-long prog rock opening track. (Everyone remembers the tinkly bit from the beginning, but nobody ever mentions the caveman grunting, Vivian Stanshall as the master of ceremonies, or the drunken Sailor’s Hornpipe at the end...)

If I remember correctly, the entrance to Schiphol in Amsterdam is basically a transport hub and shopping/restaurant area. It was quite nice, at least the last time I left the gate area (in 2009, I think).

Thank you!

I don’t know — I always got the impression that Cardassians are unfailingly polite, even when they’re stabbing you in the back. I can’t imagine Gul Dukat telling anyone to suck his anything.

How about some Kraft Mack and Seize...

That’s very kind, thanks XD

I’m reminded of this episode of Man to Man with Dean Lerner, the sequel series to Garth Marenghi’s Darkplace, where Dean Lerner (Richard Ayoade’s nasty Trump-esque media figure) does an Apprentice-style reality show set in an auto parts store.

It’s one of the side-effects of an imperfect cloning process — impulse control and decision making have been found to deteriorate at an exponential rate if the clones aren’t topped off with a daily dose of serotonin boosters and airline peanuts. (Which is one reason the pilot program was literally a pilot program —…

Hence why you need the book.

Under those circumstances, it must have been difficult for him to circumstand his ground, especially with the circumcise of the crowd...

This is especially a problem when you have a krait engine.

Did you hear about the snake that got into that Shelby Cobra? The driver had to Dodge Viper.
