to be fair Nasa themselves have had several very public and very catastrophic incidents of their own. But it is much easier to absorb that risk (financially) when you are taxpayer funded. When you have to answer to shareholders very public catastrophes like that has huge effects on your business and/or your…

“ but the stories of the relationship between coworkers was horrific (like as in I’ve heard there were different break times for different unions to prevent brawls bad)“

I wouldn’t buy that division without a big time accounting. I know people in the Space world (used to live in Huntsville, Alabama) and Boeing was infamous for never paying their bills. They would just award a new bigger contract when the bill came and while the company was excited about having a new project, forget to…

After the Starliner fiasco, how long would it take to get Boeing back in the good graces of NASA?

The LAT & WP editorial boards did not “decline” to endorse Harris. The endorsements were already agreed upon, scheduled, and written. The billionaire owners of these newspapers forced them to pull the endorsements from the calendar a week before the election.

I believe Boeing checks both the ‘super desperate’ and ‘hopeless’ boxes. After the Starliner fiasco, how long would it take to get Boeing back in the good graces of NASA? And now roll that in with all the other fiascos going on.

Based on the Gif, the Truck driver was already on the slow down due to the car in front. No way he would have known the pickup would have just moved over like an idiot at the last second. I always drive as if someone is going to do that and prepare, but you’re not doing any defensive driving in a potential 80,000lbs…

Well you just eliminated nearly all of our politicians.

The reason Musk is supporting Trump is the same reason many of the billionaire-owned newspapers (Bezos’ Washington Post, for example) declined to endorse Harris: Money.

I had the same thought but also there’s a decent chance the pickup was in his blind spot right up until the last moments. 

I don’t think it’s shocking. It’s a low compression V10. The drivetrain is pretty much bullet proof. The only thing I am surprised is that the interior hasn’t turned to dust.

With the lack of information you really cant make that assumption, like was there anyone to the truckers left? Could the trucker even see the pick up? Or maybe the trucker thought the pickup was just going to plow into the line of cars instead of swerving his way? 

If DEI decides who you buy products from, then you are the problem. DEI is reverse discrimination, pure and simple. Isn’t it better to choose the best person for the job regardless of skin color, sexual choice, etc.?? I prefer my engineers to understand, well, engineering, not gender queer. If they additionally know…

The only thing actually gold about this car is the easily stolen bar. Everything else is plated; very low-rent, the guy that buys this probably has a gold-plated toilet to “class up the joint.”

How would he be appalled when his entire thing was that he was obsessed with gold?

And this morning, the sun rose (again).

They didn’t include a custom Oddjob inspired bowler hat? Huge missed opportunity.

Might as well have left the engine out, because this thing wont see a single mile of road in its lifetime.  

“...such losers!”

Man famous for not paying his debts, doesn’t pay debts. Consequences are for the little people.
