“Pops”? That’s halfway there to the point I’m making. Sooner ridicule than discuss. Kind of ironic.

I saw two people this last weekend sleeping with their foreheads on the IFE screen in front of them. I’m sure both of those people would have used one of these.

This can’t be “the first” wireless Xbox fighting stick, can it? Madcatz and the like haven’t made one yet?

I’m surprised this is going to Supreme Court. Michigan’s own state laws on drones appears to make it clear this was in violation:

I’m picturing someone tugging on their suspenders in a sweltering hot southern court room saying that to the jury. 

Discussion and debate are largely dead these days. No one is allowed to be politely critical anymore. Straight to “F**K YOU!” if you don’t agree. No counter points. No attempt to inform. Just straight to hate. I don’t know when exactly this was normalized, but I feel like its been this way for at least the last 10…

Thankfully a simulation, but the fact they are already toying with the concept of arming IA before we even truly understand the implications and future problems is more or less the “immediately before going live” backdrop in any future apocalyptic sci-fi movie.

Back when the original Razr came out, it was significantly slimmer than the competition, making it easier to pocket. A Razr V3 was 13.9mm thick when folded. Compare that to a typical candybar phone or even other flip phones of the era being closer to 24-26mm thick, and it made sense.

It has always been a cost/benefit analysis with regards to weight and mission objectives. NASA has of course contemplated any number of self-cleaning methods (it’s freaking NASA, after all), but passed on them in favor of just enlarging the solar panel. The notion was that even with static clinging dust, the larger…

My point is that while humans may vary in weight, in some extreme instances by up to a factor of 3X, that still pales in comparison to the near infinite range of cargo goods.

I’m glad I’m not the only one who sees these and has to debate their inner monologue that these are in fact not kicker ramps meant to be jumped a la Gone in 60 seconds. 

Cargo only planes are a far different scenario than pax planes when it comes to loading and balancing. And yes, planes do have scales in the landing gear. Ask your brother about both and he’ll set you straight. 

lol. Leave it to us Americans to throw privacy rights in front of a safety study.

I’ve been on a 250cc in Vietnam and that thing could seriously move. You don’t expect it because it looks like any other 50cc in the states. 

I’ve been a fan of, and playing SF for nearly 30 years (yes, I’m old), but SFV was the first time I just didn’t even bother with past testing it out. It just never felt, looked, or played right to me. And not in a “reject change” sort of way. Just in not feeling like a true SF game, despite actually having just about…

Those design patents have long since expired. Design patents are 14 years, I believe. There are other forms of patents, but none more than 20 years.

Game emulators are not illegal. A lot of them are just reverse engineered software. So lots of these types of emulators are provided without ROMs and there’s nothing illegal about it. Not sure of the above, but that’s how lots of these companies skirt issues with sales. Secondly, ROM’s aren’t inherently illegal…

Imagine being in that front row?!?

I could see that too. I’ve had many a Spaghetti-O/Wonder Bread meals in my life. I just have a thing for dry toast with soups or anything with sauces. It’s my man-child crostini.

I can relate. My combo was Spaghetti-O’s and toast.
