Or do we always set unrealistic timetables that don’t leave room for the unexpected?

Just once I want to hear “we finished the project a month early and had plenty of time to attend to all the little details”.

Dear everyone.

It’s like how Gawker usd to be with Peter Thiel. Story a day. Sometimes more.

I’m more annoyed because I don’t like the idea of tipping. I’d rather be charged a higher fare up-front than have to pay extra. Same with restaurants— I’d rather pay $12 for a burger instead of $10 if it means the waiters get paid a normal wage and I don’t have to tip.

I’m actually annoyed at this... I liked how Uber had no tipping feature, so tips weren’t expected. That was my favorite feature of Uber versus every other rideshare app.

Breaking the law and violating contracts is how start ups work today. Having to pay a fine when found guilty is considered part of the R&D cost. I do not endorse such behavior.

I am a 100% believer in climate change but I don’t see a goddamn thing anywhere that actually makes a plausible connection between this and climate change. Pheonix is universally acknowledged as the hottest major population center in the US. The fact of the matter is there’s a shitload more pavement, of different…

It must have encountered an extremely modest bend in the road.

As an ardent member of the supra community, $125k for a model with an accident is blasphemy, but someone will still buy it simply because the rest with this many miles are modified, salvaged or died a premature death. I’ll bite my lip and accept that this is a “good” deal.

I think it would be worth noting that according to the rules: in order to take the engine cover off, the engine must be off. They would have then been able to hit it with a hammer. They must then put the cover back on before they start it again. Thats why they had to serve the penalties, and thats why they put the…

I think the penalty was for the repeated attempts to hide the crime rather than the crime itself. A team member trying to enter Parc Ferme after the cars have been deposited is like a member of the public trying to walk into a bank vault.

If anything it would’ve probably created a small amount of drag. Unfortunately it is a homologation vehicle and it was altered as stupid as that sounds. Rules are rules and they are to be enforced across the board no matter how dumb they may seem.

But... but... taking a conciliatory approach with an imperialistic madman ALWAYS works out for the best...!

So Jackie Chan has TWO cars on the overall podium.

Great ingenuity, and certainly in the spirit of endurance racing. I thought it was a brilliant idea. I hate that it’s come to this, but rules are rules and and at the top of that is always do not mess with parc ferme.

There’s uncool and there’s fucking stupid. This was more of the latter.

In that it allowed them to bang on the starter quicker, yes.

Sure they will! For a couple months. Then they’ll start it up again, since it is a renewable source of concessions. They’ve been playing this game for decades.

You raise a valid point. If they don’t want THAAD then we can pull out completely. I wonder how quickly they would backpedal.
