I mean... it really only technically has 4 seats. 2 of those seats are just for leather suitcases or bespoke weekend bags. Or the children that will grow up always yearning for your affection, but only receiving the cold logic of optimization.

this is disappointing, I thought physicists were just having fun naming a particularly difficult to decipher particle.

I do think this is still kind of a false set of pretenses. Vices give joy, but so do other things. I used to like soda, now I like apples. I used to like mcdonalds hamburgers, now I like my home-made chicken tagine. 

I know all the “MORGAN WITH AN AUTO? NOOOPE” takes are coming in, and I’m here to say:

Yeah, I certainly don’t claim to have the “right” strategy haha. I try new things a lot. Usually, I wait until my brain is overfull and I’m a bit overwhelmed, THEN I take out a piece of paper and shut off my screen. Now that I’ve got like 30 competing ideas, diagraming makes things much clearer and I get those little…

I’m someone who often has MULTIPLE WINDOWS each with like 20 tabs, so I’ll explain how they propagate.

I find it very frustrating that as a postdoctoral neuroscience researcher I work longer hours than the president AND that if I waste 30 minutes of my work day reading jalopnik or splinter I feel immensely guilty. Where do I get one of those cushy “ ‘leader’ of the free world” jobs?

I hear what your saying, but I can 100% feel the difference in transmission temp if I idle for 3 min before I drive away. I put on a song I like, and when it’s done I can actually row the gears pretty easily.

ILL TAKE IT

I was at Simon’s thesis defense (which he KILLED), and I cannot underscore how great this work is. Not only this part of his PhD, but three other stories all pointed to the same general timeline of glacial behavior. It was truly a pleasure to be there, and I’m AMPED you all called him for an interview. I’m a pretty…

LOOOOOOOOOOOL.

There’s so much to unpack in this comment, but it boils down to this:

...The funny part is that you don’t care about the environment?

OK, sure, it’s a publicity thing, whatever. If I had you over to my place and said, “Hey, I have two Altimas out in my impossibly large and snow covered backyard. One of them is a normal Altima with, you know, wheels. The other one has TRACKS AT ALL FOUR CORNERS. Which would you like to take for a spin around my…

I fear too few will find their ways there haha

There are assholes driving literally every car. NSX? Yeah, duh. Miatas? Sadly, yes. Honda Accord? Well, duh. Yugo? You better believe it.

Replace the oil filter on my FZJ80, and bring the old one to my mechanic so he can decide if my main bearings are going or not. if not: head gasket job in the garage.

This is a pretty shockingly lazy take. Nicotine is addictive, and addictions are generally pretty bad. By definition, they lead to a change in behavior to attain the addictive substance.

I’ve got a lovey new silicone one just waiting.

oh man, i was about to do a head gasket job on my 1FZ-FE. Maybe while I’m in there I should just add 800 HP...
