Fuck yea, more RI articles

Someone on Jalopnik mentioned it, but I think it needs to be said again.

Always a thrill to see an article about the Ridley Scott Superbowl commercial.

I’m “buy cheap first, buy expensive second.”

If you go to a Mexican restaurant, you’re going to end up with some combination of cheese, meat, vegetables, and beans on, in, or under tortilla.

Greetings fellow pessimist. It is frustrating to watch my fellow countrymen’s continually-unfounded optimism regarding the coronavirus. As if it’s going to just go away, when we haven’t done even a fraction of the things necessary for that to happen. As if wishing made it so.

Interesting data point. If you factor in track width the current ranger is ~22% smaller than the current F150. If you compare 2000 to 2000, the ranger was about ~22% smaller than the f150. If you are interested the current ranger is still 15% smaller than a 2000 F150.

I used to go to this place in Atlanta, and if you know it, you know it. It’s called Jack’s Pizza and Wings, right there off Highland. It’s a dive bar that serves pizza and wings, and also super cheap beer. Back in 2009, they were still serving $1 pints of “Old 4th Ward” which I’m pretty sure was just Miller.

You might also want to check out Maria crackers/cookies. Similar flavor, also cheap. They’re thinner, I think. Love them spread with tiramisu-flavored mascarpone (can only find at the Italian market)

Honestly, none of this surprises me and the very first thing I thought when clicking on the article was, oh boy, this is gonna be a chemistry issue. As an organic chemist, I am interested to know what dyes they used because most dyes are innocuous, some are suspected carcinogens, some are outright mutagens, and if…

When a car is moving and bouncing, your finger can wobble on its way to a touch screen target and land on an unintended button. This usually leads to some sub-menu you then have to back out of (by hitting other buttons on a touch screen...)

People, people! NO FEAR - the only thing you have to lose is flour and butter! I live in Florida and make it at least twice a month - and usually full on enriched croissant dough. I do keep my house pretty cool and have marble slabs on the counter. I bake.

Certainly people should pay attention. But most car-pedestrian accidents aren’t because someone stepped in front of a car that didn’t have time to stop.

One of the worse things I see in this report is the ignoring of the construction workers. I’m a good enough engineer to know I don’t know everything. A guy with a high school education that has actually done stuff with his hands and not just on a computer knows a lot more about how things actually work than I do. Some…

You’re assuming “public” hydrogen fueling stations. There are non-retail stations in Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Detroit, and South Carolina according to a map provided by the US DoE (below). And surely there are other private or corporate stations elsewhere. I saw a Mirai driving around in Dayton, Ohio not too long…

One thing to remember though is, if you do fall for a scam don’t beat yourself up about it. Learn your lesson (don’t skip that part) and move on. These people are litterally professionals and you were/are a fish out of water. Given the right circumstances, psychology, and skill of the con-artist anyone can fall for a…

Man, these guys really won’t defend anything.

Nice, I used to live on Angell Street (09-10) and then on Promenade (10-12). I’m pretty sure I just jaywalked everywhere.

I am SO with you on this one.
