You all are getting it wrong: It wasn’t the Southern states that proposed the Senate, it was mainly the larger ones (New York and Virginia). They did this on the assumption most of the countries future growth (and therefore representation) would be in the South, and wanted a non-population based body in order to…

Wow, 5400 RPM drives still exist? I though Steam installs on my old 10kRPM drive would drag.

I quit once the first Exodia decks hit. As someone who plays exclusively control, that made it impossible for people like me to play the game.

If they had no electrical power (which is what the current reports state), then landing would be significantly more difficult due to the lack of electrical assist on the flight controls.  I honestly wouldn’t be shocked if that’s something pilots anywhere (let alone Russia) only simulate once or twice in a simulator…

Simple solution:

1st Gear: Combine the rising cost of cars for various reasons with a decline in peoples means to pay for them, and is it really surprising car sales are declining?

To be fair, the FAA has to allow Boeing and others to self-certify because they don’t have the expertise anymore to do it themselves. Most all the knowledge base to perform this task have long since retried, and the only people with the type of in-depth knowledge to certify the plane come from Boeing anyway (planes…

No; *everyone* on the roads have to follow traffic laws. That includes bicyclists and pedestrians.

Neither Radar or Lidar are infallible; these types of systems encounter noise ALL THE TIME, and you need to spend a significant amount of processing time in order to verify what you get is something that is real, rather then noise in the system. Depending on the environment, this can sometimes result in delays on the…

Vietnam is the classic case that shows you can’t defeat a popular insurgency against a corrupt incompetent government by simply winning battles. The fight is just as political as it is militarily.

To be fair, we’ve had supersampling methods for a long time; it’s not like HQx filters are new.  The problems been those filters only applied to the spite layer.  All that’s really been done is figuring out a way to apply a similar filter to Mode 7 effects.

Military software solutions goes through a SHIT TON more testing then commercial ones though; the way MCAS was designed would NEVER get through a DOD review.

Say what you will about it, but there’s not a bad seat there.  It’s a great sports arena.

China slowing down is a pretty good indicator that we’re heading for a recession within the nest 1-3 years. The only “real” question is if it occurs before the 2020 election or not. Pretty much every growth indicator is trending toward “recession” at this point, but Trump is throwing enough money at the economy (at…

Except Trumps trade war doesn’t actually do anything aside from making *everything* more expensive, making economic growth worse.

You’re not going far enough; instead of a slot car concept, why not go full train?  Plus, you solve your self-driving problem, as everything will be on rails.

In regards to healthcare, the ACA is probably dead if the current case hits the Supreme Court before a Democrat becomes President.
