They do list them, but there’s so much fine print involved in booking an airline ticket that most people just ignore it.
What we really should be doing is asking whether liquid restrictions still make any sense. It was always a dubious threat to start with.

Farming is big business. There are no “family farms” anymore, except in the sense that Wal-Mart is technically a family business. But agribusiness plays on the idea of a family farm in order to get immunity from the kind of regulations that any other industry would have to honor.
I used to live next to a river that had…

It’s pretty typical for a major surface arterial in LA. It look looks like a freeway to you because it’s elevated.

Maximum speeds:

The speed limit on that street is only 35, so unseparated traffic is pretty normal.

Yeah, this. If you’re sober by the time they find you it’s harder to pin a DUI charge on you.

You can’t blame it to absolve yourself, but if Volvo’s automatic braking system repeatedly failed to notice motorcycles a government investigation like this one might happen.

Yup. I was reminded of it when, a few years after that movie came out, an engine fell off a 747 over Lake Michigan. (The plane landed safely.)

You also have to be careful not to take *too* much of the load off the car, since any weight carried by the castor wheel doesn’t add traction.

That and a huge part of these kinds of events is companies gathering intelligence on what their competitors are doing.

I meant the one in James’ post. Sorry, I got the attribution wrong, since you were continuing their line of argument.

What’re the odds it ever goes anywhere under sail power anyway? Most yachts I see are just motoring everywhere.

For that matter, what’re the odds this thing ever moves under sail power anyway? If it’s like most yachts I see they’re just going to motor it everywhere and the masts will be for decoration.

Now you’re talking. I think you could get a Lake LA-250 for that.

I wasn’t bragging, I was responding to your ridiculous notion that everyone’s purchases escalate in proportion to their wealth. It’s just not true. Most people’s don’t. Most people’s egos are not bound up in showing off wealth through useless but expensive possessions. It’s mostly the extremely rich who feel the need…

Yeah, right. What’s the utility of a giant yacht unless you’re showing off with it? It’s not like the billionaires who own these actually sail anywhere on them. They pay other people to sail them and then fly on a bizjet to meet up at the next port. At best they’re a portable mansion used for schmoozing with other…

I’d like to think so, but we’ve already seen that as his level of wealth the SEC is a toothless tiger.

For $250,000, it better sprout wheels so I can drive it out of the water when it’s time for dinner.

You can’t really compare starting batteries to EV traction batteries. The current load on a starting battery is both lower and a lot more brief, and no one is trying to fast-charge a starting battery at 200+ kW. Also they’re expected to have a normal lifespan of 5-10 years, while people would prefer that traction…

Of course it’s about him. The whole ship is just a big sign that says LOOK AT ME!!!!!1! on it. There’s literally no other reason to build a mega-yacht other than to prove  your superiority to other human beings.
