I was expecting some overly self-righteous post like this. If these kinds of things are really safe for bikers to do; then they should actually do the work of passing new laws to make it legal. Bikers successfully lobbied to make lane splitting legal in certain states and circumstances.

You don’t get to claim that you…

I think a lot of people would argue that our military shouldn’t be focused on bombing people in mud huts. The reason the focus shifted from building weapons systems that were designed to defend against legitimate military threats is, arguably, that we made counter-terrorism the focus of our military agenda. That was a…

The idea that there should be ANY Star Trek game that is not a full fledged, gorgeous, authentic Star Trek version of the Artemis bridge simulator is nonsense. All Trek developers, drop what you are doing and make that.

Not to mention, to achieve that level of power transfer, you are talking about insane levels of voltage and current. It would be hard to package that in way that didn’t require lots of training and safety equipment to operate.

Dear Disney,

Stop fucking around and make a new X-Wing game.

Sincerely,

Everyone born before 1990 (we have money now).

Apple is leading the way with their innovative use of “found technology.”

As long as this feature is 100% internal to the system I have no problem with it; and other parents shouldn’t either (but maybe off should be the default state). The part that bothers me is that it sends the data to an email account, which means that now Google, Apple, Microsoft, etc are going to have detailed lists…

The problem is a sizable portion of Americans are on the wrong side of the war against gun violence, because they think winning it means losing their guns. I say we start taxing the living shit out of gun sales, but we tie the tax rate to FBI numbers for gun based crimes. That way, everyone involved in “legal,…

Alternative plan: tax the SHIT out of them; but make the tax rate variable based on the number of gun crimes committed every year, that way everyone involved in ‘legal responsible gun ownership’ from gun companies to private gun owners has skin in the game when it comes to ending our national gun crime epidemic. Use…

Huh, it’s surprising that Google is building a dedicated hardware platform here instead of just creating some kind of Android firmware/OS for routers and giving it to manufacturers for free.

Of course, there’s always that alternative you are vaguely aware of:

So...it’s windows minus all those pesky window things?

Seriously, this sounds ridiculous. For most IoT projects, the concepts of a full fledged operating system is totally overkill. Even when I see the paired down version of Linux that run on a lot of micro-processors I think it’s overkill. Just have a chip that can…

I know it’s not realistic to expect people to stop hunting big game altogether, but what if we just changed the rules a bit and made it perfectly legal to hunt lions, anywhere, anytime, but the only weapon you are allowed to use is this:

Good luck!

It reminds me of the Star Wars Trilogy Arcade game. I really hope they make something a little less linear and scripted than that game was.

Here are some things I think you overlooked when it comes to market space you are describing.

1) Status Factor - Just like no one who buys a Macbook Pro can resist the urge to set it up at Starbucks so everyone can see them using it, no one would buy an Apple car that they could never be seen in. Apple has been…

Yeah, widespread autonomous car acceptance will and rightfully should make it harder for enthusiasts to drive. Eventually, manually driven cars might be relegated from public roads to private tracks. At some point, we’ll have to face the fact that having a human behind the wheel of a car is an unacceptable risk to…

The question in the article is pretty vague, and yet it seems that people are inferring from it that people want to be able to wrestle control away from the autonomous vehicle for safety reasons; but that’s not the only reason to want controls. Tesla was mentioned in the article, and I would never even consider buying…

I think the closest thing you could say to this while being physically correct is that if you were to get in that position and put a bathroom scale under your feet; and you were lying on a perfectly friction-less surface, the scale would read pretty close to your actual weight.

Well, quite frankly, I think it’s clear my English is at least better than your reading comprehension. I’ll spell it out for you more clearly:

No one is saying that.
