I keed, it's not all that bad. It's a Fiero, but at least it has a small block, and a big one at that!

No, no, we're looking for the best modified cars...

I think they cap the well off much below the level of the platform itself. Either way, just put up buoys for small ships, any modern day large ship is navigated by GPS and these wells are already on GPS so that shouldn't really be a problem. There's plenty of natural reefs that are much more dangerous than anything

Believing that businesses pay taxes to begin with is brain washing! You think they just absorb the cost of the taxes that they pay and take it off their bottom line?! Hell no, they pass the cost to the consumer. So who really pays the taxes that we put on the businesses?

I agree about the unfairness of giving breaks to individual companies.

I want to talk about second gear:

Whoah, whoah... I thought the whole reason to go with Apple was so you didn't have to choose!?! That's what they've been screaming for years. You get the newest phone and it's the best, because there's only one, now they have to choose?! Between two phones?! Oh noes, here comes the fragmentation...

Most diesels don't have throttle bodies. They shove as much air as possible into the cylinder and then regulate engine power by the amount of fuel that goes in rather than the amount of air/fuel mixture.

The 99%/1% thing? It's a concept driven by misunderstanding of economics. Yes, there are rich people, yes they can buy whatever they want, and yes, they probably don't work very hard (if at all). The rich get richer, yeah, money makes money, yeah?. How does this effect me? It doesn't. Work hard, be happy, enjoy

Or he could stop using the term 1%er because it's fucking stupid.

It's safe to assume then that positive displacement superchargers are linear in their flowrates (or at least close enough)?

Yes, I agree. It's probably not a bad idea anyways.. :)

So is a supercharger's liter capacity equal to the amount of air it moves in one rotation or something? Somebody please explain!

First, for full disclosure, I am a conservative.

Goddammit I want that GT3. If I ever bought a Porsche I would get a 997 GT3. In white? Jesus. I might take the penalties and take some money out of my 401(k)!

Wonder what kind of RAID setup they're using for this? And, for that matter, what hard drives? This many hard drives, there will be some failure in the first two years. After that it's gonna be a real crap shoot.

yeah, "Right of way" would prohibit this. You can't deny somebody access to their property. Digging a moat would certainly be considered denying access. Like the creativity though.

well said. Now get that other guy some more tin foil!

Well as far as I know African governments don't exactly have the money to pay for the development of a vaccine all by themselves. So it's either the "Western World" or Asia that going to do the development of the vaccine ($$$). Sorry, but I don't see China clambering to pay.
