I was roped in to a climate change discussion with a number of staunch Republicans recently, but I took it as an opportunity to look at some of the skeptical arguments. I wish I could find the link, but his statements do parallel some of what the research of opinions among climate scientists show. Wikipedia has some…

I think there are a couple aspects of this we need to consider. The first is the availability of a qualified workforce of a given race. It seems like we’re trying to put this on tech companies without looking at the bigger picture. We know, for example, that the median income of black people in the U.S. is…

I agree to a point that there are a few aspects here that are concerning, but I also think you are taking a very, very slanted view. For people with diseases like ALS, they are looking to get access to experimental treatments as soon as possible. For them, the rewards easily, easily outweigh the risks. The FDA has…

Good, another reason not to fly this shit airline. With any luck they’ll drive themselves to bankruptcy.

Wow, impressive stuff. I’m amazed that you got shallow DOF at that focal length only at F2. The processing is excellent as well.

What *camera* were these shot with. My god! Whatever it was had a really bitchin super fast 50mm equiv. attached to it. Holy moly.

I drive a Toyota FJ. All of these cars appear to have amazing rear visibility to me!

Someone actually monitoring what’s happening behind them? That seems unpossible.

The answer to this question is obvious. It’s the Pontiac G8.

The curve thing is terrible. It’s just a gimmick they try to tack on. It’s like with TV’s: in the 70's you had curved screen projection TVs. Then it became all about flat screens towards the end of the CRT era and into the panel era. Now, all of a sudden curvature is what you have to have. It’s a load of crap.

I think sites like this should stop doing articles on indiegogo/kickstarter projects...technology projects in particular. They are basically all scams. IF the product is actually delivered and IF it resembles the original idea in a meaningful way, which is by no means guaranteed or even likely, it will be at least a…

Totally agree. I want to see one of these things cope in Boston where lane markings are considered a luxury (and, at times, undesirable), where the road is all torn up and bumpy, where there may or may not be curbs, etc.

I’ve had some hard stops at places like this, it’s a very dangerous setup. Honestly, I think part of what contributed to this situation is the person with the dash cam stopping way before the person was ready to cross. People try to be overly polite and it leads to situations where the person in the other lane may…

LG v20 seems pretty promising. Changing platforms seems like a bit of an overreaction to the Pixel not being amazing.

Having bought a lightly used STi that sat on the lot for more than a year before I bought it, I know that premium Subie vehicles do hold their value pretty well. $17k for a 95k mile car is ridiculous, though. It’s worth more than your average car with 95k, but not 17 grand.

Not really paranoid at all. More and more companies are having employees use loaner devices when travelling to China or Russia rather than bringing their own because of the security issues. I would bet there are some MPs who have traveled there with their smart devices...

You need to understand that hacking in Russia…

People don’t, “mull around” either. They might mill around while they mull things over, but why know how to use the English language properly if you’re going to be a writer?

I mostly agree with you, but I think the retarded ultra-cambered wheels may be a legitimate concern for other motorists. For the other stuff, it’s their business if they want to ruin their cars.

Hey! The GIF at the top looks like Caecilius’ pad, but I know that Caecilius est in foro...so what the hell are they doing taking pictures in his house?

I hate getting water up my nose, but I have been mesmerized by this thing ever since I saw the commercials. It just seems like it would be so good to rinse all that garbage out of there when you’re stuffed up.
