I think it is hilarious that the first two replies to this story are an example of anti-gun snark, and then a pro-gun snark.

These are not the 72 virgins they were expecting.
nitro = nitromethane, the awesome liquid fuel NHRA sucks-and-blows by the gallons per run in their 10,000 HP beasts
I agree. And 15-yr-old me would definitely want to fight 30-yr-old me for saying this... But what is the point? A stock Huracan can already hit 60 in less than 3 seconds, and has a top speed of over 200 mph.. At a certain point you just have to accept the fact that adding MOAR POWER is just for the pissing contest.
It’s rotting grain. Ben Carson said so.
That's just great, I put in a $10,000 bill and get $1,000 worth of dimes in change.
I’m stealing this line, and possibly this method, for when, as I do every January, I cut the Christmas tree into three large sections (needles and all), dry it for three weeks, and then carefully stack the pieces into a cone and ignite it while drinking bourbon with certain close friends/accomplices. The dry needles…
People that work at Jiffy Lube changing oil or at Les Schwab changing tires have barely any training, Torch. Community Colleges usually offer coursework that puts students on track to get ASE certifications, with the goal of producing master techs.
They should try KFC 8462852 instead.
It certainly adds a challenge to overcome, and means most efforts will need constant human intervention. I’d imagine it’s a bigger downer to the very long term terraforming plans.. hard to build up the atmosphere over thousands of years because you loose a larger percentage of your constant small input to the solar…
For a magnetic field to exist, there needs to be a molten iron core. Initial heat from planetary formation, immense pressure, and radioactive material all add to geothermal heat. Mars certainly has less pressure at its core, as it is much smaller, and it probably had less initial heat and radioactive material, as it…
so then the question becomes “how did Mars lose its magnetic field?”
Those are amazingly beautiful photos of what was a really unfortunate accident. Needs more flying frog though.
My wife and I were just at Carmax a couple weeks ago looking at some vehicles that would transport 6 people in comfort and did not contain the word minivan (we’ve owned an Odyssey since 2005). The sales guy showed us a few and let us test drive several. Prior to that I asked if these had extended warranties available…
As long as he tells everyone “You call him Dr. Jones!”, then you’re fine. Bonus points if he yells “Cover your heart Indy!” at random times.
Bugs? Are you kidding me? Please.
“Why don’t you put the word ‘did’ in front of it?” he said. “And then a question mark at the end of it.”
A new car built by my company leaves somewhere traveling at 60 mph. The rear differential locks up. The car crashes and burns with everyone trapped inside. Now, should we initiate a recall? Take the number of vehicles in the field, A, multiply by the probable rate of failure, B, multiply by the average out-of-court…
Now playing
I’m pretty sure the exact process and formula has been covered in Fight Club.
