Dear Jalopnik,

The local paper interviewed the bar owner and he said the people behind Mick in the photos had box seats for the concert the next night.

I bet they taste a lot better if you fry them in lard.

Just don’t accidentally bump the 16k module while retyping 2000+ lines of basic code out of the back of a magazine to play SupermonZXer.

Where there’s a will(ie), there’s a way...

Anton Yelchin died in vain, I guess. They should have learned their lesson from his death.

David, off-topic - what was the name of the amazing jeep junkyard in NC you visited?

No idea, but it’ll be several months and that car will be impounded the whole time while we wait to find out. I doubt you could get entrapment to stick since there’s video showing that Vette driving at insane speeds long before it encounters the Charger.

Frame rate on the PDR is low. If that had been a GoPro, you’d have been able to tell.

Not only does this idiot not know about the PDR, he also tries to race a nondescript black Charger on the highway. Sheesh.

For a car, there are two sets of these forces: the rolling friction resistance of the tires and the air resistance pushing back on the car. With a landspeeder, you eliminate one of those sets.

Nobody said the vehicle was frictionless or didn’t still have inertia. From a dynamics standpoint, this sci-fi trope acts exactly like an invisible set of legs.

Torch, you failed to think this through, at least with regard to the landspeeder and repulsorlifts.

Ban all metaphors. They’re doubleplusungood. Everyone must be literal all the time or go to prison.

My 1989 Cutlass was the undisputed road trip car of choice when I was in college. It was simply the most comfortable car in existence. Plush velour seats with cushy springs and a levitating suspension and ample space in every direction so you didn’t have to touch anyone even when carrying 6 people.

Gotta love a whole article devoted to “BUT ACCCCCCTUALLLLLY....”

In theory, anything sweet or acidic should work with peanut butter to provide the right flavor contrast.

I’d like to bring your attention to an actual blind person’s perspective on this kind of technology (and this article)...

In this latest case, it’s a Maybach concept car from 2017. It is sufficiently grandiose, over 18 feet long and powered by an electric powertrain with four motors totaling an output of 550 kilowatts, or 738 horsepower, Mercedes claims.

Junkyard door and MAACO. Time is too valuable.
