I totally lost interest in pentathlon when they switched to laser pistols. It just seems too silly.

This seems like a Google problem, really. I don’t recall the login ever telling me what access I was giving, and I assumed it was not taking anything but identification. Sure, Niantic probably had some sort of mistake that took too much access, but shouldn’t there be some sort of warning in place on Google’s end for…
It is listed on the site as “For Sale at Auction”. Perhaps that is a starting bid?
Ah, I see. Crimes should be punished based on the relative time it takes to commit them. I will remember to be fast the next time I need to kill someone...
Since I moved to San Diego, I have received so many bumper dings... It is not Car2Go, San Diegans can’t parallel park in general.
I had a sidewall blowout on my bicycle once. Luckily, I was near a bike shop, so I walked over and looked at what they had in stock. One option was a brand I liked in a color that was a perfect match to my frame! They only had one, but assured me they get shipments all the time. I only needed one emergency tire change…
I had the same thought. I ride a road bike to work, but I have done the commute (and commutes in other cities in the past) on mountain bikes. They are sturdy, sure-footed, and comfortable. That is a great combination for commuter. Plus, it is often easy to find good second-hand mountain bikes at a fair price; people…
Yeah, that is in the realm of cameras I mean. Potentially more cost then an entry level DSLR, every manual option available, etc. It raises an interesting question: What makes something a point and shoot? Is it price? Size? Lack of interchangeable lenses? I have a Panasonic GM1. It has a Micro 4/3 sensor and lens…

What camera? There is some chance we define things differently. There is a range of “enthusiast compact” cameras out there these days that, for many people, don’t exactly fit the image of a point and shoot.

I am into photography, and have better equipment than my smartphone, but I no longer have a point and shoot. In my opinion, the difference in quality between a point and shoot and a smartphone is too small to justify a separate device. I still won’t have amazing low light performance or shallow depth of field. I…

Yes, that was a very poor summary. The text of the bill is:
That is some high level trolling. Kudos.
Well, not all violations cause them to add points to you license (I have never heard of points for a parking violation). Were you at fault in the accident? If not, then there is no violation to add points for... And I would hope no state is currently assessing points for storm damage...
LL Bean is great. I have a backpack from them (kind of a rugged book bag) that I always forget is not quite as old as I think. After a few years, the seam came loose from one of the pockets, and they replaced the bag with a brand new one. I have had the replacement for at least 6 more years now...
I don’t recall if it was the N1, but I remember an engineering professor once talking about the Soviet space program’s take on reliability. They had a high failure rate for rocket engines, so they just doubled the number of engines and cut their size in half. They did some ingenious internal connections to prevent…
Ever take a tour of a lab or factory? There is such a thing as safety based dress codes. Just because you want to blame all clothing restrictions on religion does not make it so.
"Random" might not be the best description; they fly out past those beaches all the time to practice over water. Still, I would not have wanted to be around when that thing came down. Can you imagine the sand it would kick up?
There is a fair question though: Does the rebate have a meaningful effect when it is such a small portion of the total vehicle cost? In a cheaper car, the electric drive components will drive up price and dissuade buyers from moving to electric. If you can subsidize the car to bring cost of ownership into levels…
I doubt the rebate is a big factor in Tesla sales. It is a good chunk of money, but relatively small against the total price of the car (I am talking about just the California rebate, as mentioned in the article). Does it makes sense to transfer the cost to the state when the cost is not so clear? On a lower end…
Carrying large/bulky/awkward items? Easily loading loose dirt/gravel/wood? Sure, in many cases the work van is just as good (or better), but it is silly to pretend there are no advantages to an open bed.
