Unrelated, but actually related: the time the Nazis lost a submarine to a broken toilet.

Viruses don’t attack Trumps for the same reason sharks don’t attack lawyers.

Not to be confused with “Dongs, Guns, Ammo, etc” of course.

Should’ve stayed beyond the wall.

There’s also the cost of the specialist that mistakenly wandered into the room and made eye contact with you for 0.75 seconds. That’ll be $3,000 and he’s out of network.

Somebody above was already asking about GCUs. I think Culture ships defy classification.

Can’t talk, dreaming with my uncle at the fireside.

Sounds idyllic.  Imagine tires spitting gravel, shifting and drifting as you commit a crime

BRB, going to hop the Turbine Freight. 

Jason, Michigan Plus doesn’t have The Mandelorian, just The Corinthian.

It’s time to buy a country place that no one knows about. Something that used to be a farm, before they pass this Motor Law.

“Unfortunately the output made no logical sense whatsoever, so I went back and did it manually.”

Right underneath the orbital plates.

The Valley Forge from Silent Running was somewhere between class one and two, with plenty of problems and big forest domes attached to it. Possibly shares a class with the Cygnus from The Black Hole.

Don’t forget the whale probe from Star Trek. A class 7 ship, smack-dab in a class 3 prevalent movie series.

Very cool article Jason. And it actually works! It’s a little scary knowing that this (a cluster of over 400 Timex-Sinclair 1000 computers dumped into an abandoned hot tub in a bunker underneath Ed Begley Jr’s combined EV R&D lab/sex-lab) is what’s in your head.  But it’s also comforting that you’re really far away.  

“I compiled several thousand examples and fed them into the Jalopnik Mainframe (a cluster of over 400 Timex-Sinclair 1000 computers dumped into an abandoned hot tub in a bunker underneath Ed Begley Jr’s combined EV R&D lab/sex-lab) which ran an advanced AI that categorized the ships into eight distinct classes.”

Where do GCUs fit?

I need you to weigh in on Spelljammer, the D&D tabletop game in which plain ol’ magic is powering the ships. Just to head you off on jumping to Class 7 because of the biological forms, it’s D&D schlock that is very fun, but it ain’t too thinky
