I honestly didn’t know battery organisers were a thing until I saw this.

Can’t decide what’s worse. Those barf-inducing shoes or the electro-green crime he’s committed against a perfectly good Ferrari.

You know you can reject any incoming request, right? It doesn’t just magically turn up on your phone.

A lot of vehicles have accompanying apps now. Many have remote-start. It seems a potential solution to this would be to have the car sense an occupant inside - be it a baby or pet - and if the key isn’t present and/or the doors are locked, and the weather is hot, start the car, set the A/C and notify the owner via an…

Ok so $31M for the victims. $80.5M for the lawyers?
My point stands.

(a) this is not surprising at all
(b) one of the reasons I don’t use food delivery services, the other being that I’m not lazy enough to pay someone to bring me food when I could just go get it myself and save $$ in the process.

I know team orders are a thing. They’ve been around since the Benetton days at least. What raises my blood pressure though is when Toto Wolff says “we just let them race each other” then in the same race, they pull team orders. Have it one way, or the other. I don’t care. Just be consistent.

I’m not sure why you think they are incorrect representations. In all those examples, Hamilton was racing well below par on the day, and ended up winning through no input of his own. In Bahrain for example he was a solid 3rd place, trailing by a considerable margin and unable to overtake either Ferrari. Had Vettel not…

I think I read somewhere that $245M was going to lawyers? So that partially explains the paltry amount set aside for the actual victims.

Like I said - it’s an unpopular view. But you can’t argue that Hamilton’s stats aren’t inflated because of his tremendous luck in races being gifted to him when he was sub-par on the day. That’s my whole point here. Take that away (team orders and luck) and he’s just not the technical whizz he’s made out to be.

What happens when Cinnamon Hitler decides a six year term is what he wants, or if he refuses to step down for a peaceful transition of power? A few years ago that would have been unthinkable but 45 has openly praised Xi Jinping for abolishing term limits in China, and he’s regularly brought up the notion of doing the…

Homeowner was a lot more patient than I would have been. I have no tolerance for this sort of antisocial bullshit. Unplug the cord, call the cops, get the car towed.

I find it such a shame that Amtrak is hobbled by being beholden to the freight services that own the tracks, and by special interest groups who just don’t want it around. Having grown up in the Netherlands (and still visiting three or four times a year) I was used to regular public transport that could be relied on…

Look at the electric-conversion VW buses that are bumbling around California. Done by Zelectric and EVWest. Those are great examples.

My take : Stealth, but with Tom Cruise. The pressurised flight suit is him flying a manned version of the AI-driven aircraft that has gone rogue. He’s the only one left who thinks analog in a digital world.

“A mighty fine Corvette, if I do say so myself. Something a true sophisticate might drive.”

On Delta at least it’s much simpler. Log in to the free part of the wifi and then browse the available streaming movies. Select one and you’ll be asked if you have the GoGo Inflight app. If you don’t it will redirect you to the app store to download it. While that redirection/download tab is open, you have free…
