But then they wouldn’t get to claim it has no side-slip.

My lord, it’s the safest bike ever devised! Ingenious!

The kind of assholes who insist on “front-mid-engined” are probably the same kind of assholes who would describe this as“front-outside-engined”

I saw the title before the picture loaded and I thought, “The weirdest, huh? Wait until he gets a look at the Sunbeam Mab....oh”

Looks like The Love Toilet to me.

Since the engine is located outside of the parallelogram formed by the wheel centres, we can safely declare it is not any flavour of mid-engine. Some of your less-enlightened coworkers could learn something from this, Jason.

It’s laid out like a small sailboat.

There was another company that produced similar human-powered vehicles. One was the Coventry Rotary quadricycle, which had the same layout as this. Even weirder was the Coventry Rotary tricycle, which had a big drive wheel to the rider’s left, and two small steered wheels to the driver’s right. Makes your head hurt.

Considering how it wasn’t until 1916 where just the pedals got their proper clutch-brake-throttle layout, you’re bound to have companies think outside the box at the turn of the last century.

Apparently, the seating arrangement was so that there could be a female passenger and a male driver while maintaining propriety, in the event they were not a married couple.

Seems like you’re kind of painting yourself into a corner. You could easily use an iPhone and a PC, you just don’t want to (I guess?). That’s marketing for ya.

You are describing how Mac keyboards work by default. Hold down “e” and you don’t get “eeeeeeeeee”, you get a little character menu. Unless you turned that off in settings.

I actively tried to stop myself from starring this, but alas, I just had to.

169 years. Schmidt happens.

Shift-option-hyphen for em dashes, option-hyphen for en dashes.

If you’re arguing that --- is “better” than the simple shift-option-hyphen and -- is “better” than the simple option-hyphen, you’re blathering because you’re either bored or a troll or both. Have a nice life.

The roots of the internet date back to the late ’60s. You may want to ditch that too.

What’s wrong with using option hyphen for – and shift-option hyphen for —, which have been built into the Mac keyboard since the 1984 Mac 128K and System 1.1g?

I’d also like to add to my previous comment that there’s a huge difference between “Apple Might Break the Automatic Em Dash” and “Apple Might Require One More Keystroke for an Automatic Em Dash”  

I think the collective noun is a “pivot table” of Excel artists.
