QoS’ action sequences are completely unwatchable for me due to the movie’s simply ludicrously rapid cutting. I can’t even tell what the fuck is going on on-screen. It’s the most annoying action movie I’ve ever watched, bar none. And the ending was ridiculous, with a hotel constructed entirely out of explosive natural…

Hm, I must confess I myself have somewhat of a soft spot for For Your Eyes Only. And, being a kid of the ‘80s, also Duran Duran’s A View to a Kill and A-Ha’s The Living Daylights, naturally. :)

Maybe a portmanteau of all three labels, turducken-style sort of maybe...? lol

Why do you want to chain yourself to gas stations and Big Oil for the rest of eternity? Where is the value proposition in doing that? I know it’s what you’ve been doing for all your adult life, and your dad’s life and so on, but why should that be a reason to continue to feed an industry that is literally trying to…

There are indeed small and compact EVs that make sense - they just don’t get sold in Merica because there bigger is better. In Europe we have the Renault Zoe for example which is a mighty fine compact EV, and the VW ID.3 is launching this summer - or would have before teh corona blindsided us. Anyway, it’s coming,…

I’m suggesting that noisy gasser engines aren’t the solution to our predicaments.

It may be carbon neutral, but carbon emissions isn’t the only problem with combustion engines, as I mentioned in my post. :) They kill people even if you run ‘em on biofuel, they’re heavy, bulky, costly to maintain, perform worse than electric motors and so on.

Typically, when you look at an issue where someone says, “I NEED, therefore I can’t BEV”, what it boils down to is it’s not actually they need, as much as it is “I WANT”. IE, I want to refuel in 5 minutes and then be on my way again - and damn the consequences.

Engines would still pollute and spread noise even if you did all that. Plus, they are much bulkier, heavier, costlier, maintenance intensive and perform much worse than an electric motor anyhow. Engines are shit. Just get over them already.

Any argument you make for how complicated it is to charge EVs with solar falls flat on its face when looking at reality, which is that A: making synthetic fuel with solar power would be very energy costly (seriously, the energy literally has to come from the sun because nothing is free) and combustion engines are so…

What about chibi cute-looking jumping spiders with short legs and huge eyes, who may or may not also play some mean bongos?

“Made with real sugar”

Shots fired! Shots fired!

This is stupid. Well actually, this is more than stupid, it’s utterly moronic, backwards and counter productive. Why use solar power to make fuel (likely to be an inefficient process), transport it (also inefficient) to then burn it in a piston engine (which all are extremely inefficient), when you can just use the…

It won’t be that easy, plus he’ll claim he never said those things - even though he did it on camera - he’s done it before, as I’m sure you’ll remember.

It’s not attacking Dumpy because he isn’t people’s “favorite”, it’s because he’s a dangerous, moronic ignoramus with delusions of grandeur who’s been spreading disinformation about this disease from the very beginning of all this starting. That wouldn’t be THAT big a problem if it wasn’t for his cult following of…

They should have claimed 100-200 million deaths instead, that way Dumpy could have been a thousand times more awesome a prez.

“Car accident deaths per capita have gone way down since the 1950s despite traffic going way up in the same timespan, because of seatbelts. So now we don’t need seatbelts anymore!”

What is your proof for any of your outlandish claims? First your claim that climate science isn’t science, and doesn’t produce verifiable predictions. Btw. Scepticism as used in relation to climate deniers, and scientific scepticism isn’t even nearly the same thing, so nice false equivalency there suggesting climate…

Thanks! ...But why? :)
