I’ll reply to my own post because several folks cursed at me for saying something I did not say. Read what I wrote. I said there is no reason for us to think they “should know better.” I admit to loose phrasing, which I think is at the root of the hate coming my way over this post.
I was a military cop. I worked with state, county, and city cops in the bay area in the late 80’s until early 91. Cops are dudes, just like you and, well, me. I have gone 200mph on the street, done wheelies where I shouldn’t have, and crashed my ass off more than a couple of times. I’m older now, and don’t do that…
That said, Huxley did us a real service with his book “The Perennial Philosophy.” This is a must-read for anyone with a heart and a mind. The book is an initiation into the truth of human existence. It opened my eyes and set me on a lifelong Path of seeking and finding. What is happening here CAN be known. The truth…
He got the robot/drone thing right, but he failed to predict the total co-opting of technology by the money/military/surveillance Beast. THink about it. What high tech gadgets do we have? Only those that facilitate our being tracked or distracted. No hover cars. No clean energy. No real medicine. Only things that are…
The US Army was caught evacuating (saving them from being caught/killed) senior DEASH/ISIS leadership from Ramadi before the Iraqi army took the town. That group, an evolution of the US creation formerly known as Al Qaeda, is an essential agent of US foreign and domestic policy.
When a dude in a pickup truck, huge wheels, Mack truck exhaust, rolls-coal, no one automatically groups all pickup drivers into a category and condemns them. I refuse to accept this categorization. Sorry, but - no. We need not allow it. There is no “we” in this story. Uh uh. That said, yeah, I know, grandma and Johnny…
you do not see a vagina......
Look at the stars.
waitwaitwait....you mistrust Google but like Facebook?
I think personally-owned Google Auto’s would be a total mistake and a missed opportunity. The real benefit of autonomous vehicles would be in that we would not have personal ownership but rather would hail them ala Uber. Think of all the great things we could do with all that garage space, all that parking lot space…
i wonder why they still use manual controls on a complex aircraft instead of updating them to intuitive control systems like we use to fly drones from our iPhones. Seems like a no-duh to me.
Reminds me of my first gsxr. Loved it. Air/oil cooled.
This is the next step in retro. As soon as the faux ‘70’s hipster crap wears thin, the ‘80’s are next. Personally, I am in. I remember lusting for Freddy Spencer’s 750F-based racer. I think those bikes are badass as updated/retro. And, other than the brick for a tail light, I think it nailed the “what is the best…
