    You lost me right off the bat when you said a $36k subcompact was relatively cheap. There are a dozen others priced below it, and its price point puts it up with with the Clarity.  And that price becomes even worse in April when the tax rebate gets cut in half.  Its effective price will be more than 5 grand higher

    The crew wouldn’t have remained together (though arguably the TNG crew should’ve been split up AT LEAST when the ship was destroyed), so any show/movie would’ve either focused on 1-3 of them (if they could pull enough strings) or been horribly disjointed.

    I’m sure the FAA was THRILLED with this. It’s not like that’s a busy airspace or anything.

    That $4B probably includes 15-20 years of technical support and maintenance assistance from Boeing.

    They actually can’t, because the number of airfields that can support an A380 is pretty limited. The options are 787 or 747-8; the 747 is the smarter choice in this case.

    Hmm, wingman has landing gear down. Slats are fully deployed to generate maximum lift. Extremely slow approach over runway. Possible touchdown by wingman. Shoves throttles full up at the point where wheels should’ve touched the ground. Banks away from wingman, briefly stalling left wing and almost overcorrecting

    Looks like they’re gone. I’m not sure if I’m disappointed or not.

    I would’ve said “Until they replace some of the staff with real writers.”

    I don’t get it, is Giuliani a robot or a video game or something? Do old men now count as technology? I don’t see mention of a pacemaker or anything.

    Who is the “editor” at gizmodo these days? Are they still coming to work or what?

    Here’s a couple of thoughts.
    Demeaning, degrading, and dismissing everyone who disagrees with you is a bad strategy. When people who have valid complaints that need to be addressed are instead called misogynists, or racists (despite not even necessarily supporting Trump or his more outlandish ideas), you polarize

    Thank god we have white people to tell everyone else not to use slurs referring to their own culture because it’s offensive to white people on behalf of them.

    Your analogy isn’t far off. A day or two of cheeseburgers isn’t going to kill you, but after a couple of months your arteries are going to be completely blocked and you’ll probably be a couple dozen pounds heavier. “Accumulation” is the key word.

    Insults are negative, gizmodo freaks out over virtual non-issue, news at 11.

    From my paying customer’s seat, the first one was so bad I didn’t care about the second. When I heard they were actually including Krang, that got my attention and I considered going just for the lunacy of that idea, but I’d rather just never pay again to see Michael Bay shit on things I liked as a kid.

    Am I alone in thinking, “So?” If a piece of shit dies, they don’t suddenly become not a piece of shit.

    I can kind of see a pilot being concerned (assuming he was unfamiliar with the comic character) with someone wearing a hat representing a violent “political” group and an anarchy shirt.

    Oh what the hell, why wasn’t THAT used? It’s perfect!

    Same for everyone in the past 60 years. Which is effectively no different from most of human history, when war meant a really good chance that your entire village would be wiped out if you lost.

    You could just...not go to the site.

    US->China->Russia->Cuba->“Ecuador or something”...that’s a pretty circuitous route, and one that seems reasonable to cause concern. If the guy had limited his leak to the NSA domestic programs he’d have a much stronger position to stand on, but he dumped a whole bunch of other stuff with it. Not quite as insane as
