This poor guy was so excited to bring his 325i to the Nurburgring only to learn that he can't control a rear wheel drive car in the rain. On the first corner. Oh well, at least he set a new record!

The P1 driver wasn't exactly helping himself through the corners with his (poor) choice of line.

He'll still get an F1 seat before an American.

I can understand your disappointment, but I can also understand why Pandora would take a pass on designing, developing, and supporting a version of their app specifically for GM's proprietary onboard OS.

Yeah. It's a lifesaver in heavy stop & go traffic - it has lowered my blood pressure considerably :).

I'm not sure how it differs from the S-class implementation. It supposedly uses the same sensors (stereoscopic camera, etc.), and based on what I've seen essentially behaves the same. Of course I wouldn't trust it completely - it will steer around gentle corners, but not abrupt ones, and it can get confused by certain…

I have a 2014 e350 wagon with the same tech. I will definitely give this hack a try.

Clever though it may be, I'm not sure how I feel about a tool that seems designed to exacerbate an already-disturbing trend toward self-segregation by political beliefs.

Just for the record, the "bear" is actually a human inside a bear-shaped life support system (possibly grown organically from actual bear DNA), although they didn't attempt to clarify that fact in the anime. Now, that said, the question of "why does this person's life support suit look like a bear" is never answered,…

If you miss the hacker vibe you should fire up the terminal. Remember, it's basically BSD Unix underneath, and it's actually quite hacker-friendly - much better in some respects than a Windows PC.

I'm a bit concerned that the reality of this game can't possibly live up to the enormous hype. After all, while they've demonstrated the ability to build a procedural universe that looks much more varied and interesting than previous attempts, it's not clear how they plan to build a game around this technology that is…

Steve Wilhite didn't create a word, he created an acronym. That acronym has morphed into a word through common usage. Steve Wilhite has absolutely no say in how that acronym => word process works or in the accepted pronunciation of that word.

4.) Cruise control

I love the assumption of immense speed implied by the almost complete lack of rearward visibility.

Hi. I'm Michael Bay. I'm here to ruin all of your childhood memories.

This sort of old-line-auto institutional arrogance must have Elon Musk licking his chops.

I think I'd rather see us develop the infrastructure to export significant quantities of our (oversupply) of natural gas to Europe. Granted that's not a short term solution, but just the threat of losing the European natural gas market might give the Russians pause. Or not - they don't seem to be entirely rational on…

My point is that the fact that you made a lot of locals (ethnic Russians, in this case) happy is not a justification for invading a sovereign country, and that it's exactly the same justification Hitler used in justifying the aggressive actions against his neighbors that eventually precipitated the Second World War.

I'm a chief enterprise architect, working in the financial sector right now.

Hitler made a lot of locals happy when he invaded the Sudetenland too.
