The theory of evolution explains how life got from the first single-celled critters to modern animals and plants and shit. It can't explain where life itself came from, nor does it try to. In fact, how life arose from non-life is one of the big questions that science is trying to find an explanation for.

Considering how long they're either sitting or crawling in traffic I wonder how effective solar panels on the roof would be

What happened to good artists copy, great artists steal?

Buy 5-10 old Rolls/Bentleys so you'll always have one to drive while the rest are in the shop

I'm not sure what it's called - FGETS, maybe - but it's a ground-effect hovertrain. It's more or less the exact same technology that you'd see in an ekranoplan

Except he actually is a guy. He just likes to wear women's clothes sometimes.

Sentience or consciousness I can buy, but it's a machine. It doesn't have to be able to feel to be able to think.

So what? If someone's dumb enough to buy this, let 'em

Excelero

Why can't they just put the fucking Ctrl key on the left?

Well if you're trying to blow stuff up I don't think permission would be that high of a priority

So what if passengers don't like it? Nobody likes flying regardless of the plane's shape. Lower maintenance costs and better fuel economy means cheaper tickets. Everyone likes cheaper tickets.

NBC bought national exclusive broadcast rights for $1,180,000,000 because they, in theory, will profit from TV advertising - that means mostly during a few hours a day on one channel. If the IOC put everything on a bazillion live streams and uploaded videos of everything right away they could still sell exclusive TV…

What if the Olympic Committee or whoever gave everyone the finger and just livestreamed everything on Youtube?

This of course is a major concern considering the size of the Japanese African-American population. Wait...

What would be really nice is a universal DC plug standard, i.e. one huge 100-250V AC -> 5/24V DC converter built into a building's wiring. That way you could have USB/AC outlets that you just wire in directly instead of having to build transformers and stuff into each outlet, and 24V sockets for everything else. The…

21/25mpg isn't particularly decent, especially compared to something like an Amarok that gets 31mpg combined. Plus you can get a full-size for $21k, which seems to be what most everyone does since they're so much nicer.

Maybe nobody likes small, practical trucks because they don't make any that get better than 20-25mpg and cost less than $20,000ish

But robots don't have feelings...

Maybe instead of a beeping alarm the cars should gently nudge themselves back in place?
