I saw the time before I saw the distance or the video and wondered what the problem was. Reading comprehension may not be my strong suit.

It’s certified too, which adds to the value, but damn, that movement does not belong in a $13k watch unless several ounces of gold or platinum are involved.

I had seen elsewhere she was born in Jamaica, but assumed that mean Queens. Yes, I am an geographically challenged dunce.

Thermo Fisher is just one player in a fairly crowded field, is there currently litigation against anyone else? Avantor, ATCC, Sigma-Aldrich, etc?

Last I knew, the Sheraton SF Fisherman’s Wharf still used one as their runabout for the engineers.

I assumed the small amount of USD I “invested” in crypto on Coinbase was gone the second I made my transactions.   Now it’s kind of like Eve Online, I have no desire to be a part of it, but am fascinated by the stories that come out of it.

My first truck was a 1988 Mitsubishi Might Max with the extended cab.  I freaking loved that thing.

It reminds me a lot of the Ridgeline, with that buttress and all.

Later C3 Corvettes, specifically the 1975 model. They got hit, hard, by the emissions hammer. How can you have a Corvette with only 165hp?  That’s just 10 more ponies than the 1954 6cyl had!

Wow, that is *deep* in to the uncanny valley when they aren’t in costume!

Of the ‘Twilight’ and ‘Danger’ varieties.

As a parent, and long before, I realized that when their complaint boils down to “Won’t somebody think of the children?!?!?!”, what they’re really saying is “I’m a terrible parent and can’t be assed to actually put in any effort to be even a moderately ok one”.

Tangential to the topic, I saw a pair of Nike Pegasus 40 in the USWNT livery today, complete with four stars. A damn good looking shoe, but I’m not paying $140 for running shoes I’d not allow myself to wear/enjoy.

I still have, and use, my 9/9/99 Dreamcast.
