One hardly knows where to begin.

Most of the recalls I’ve been through involved parts on national backorder.

It’s “cast iron” and “turned.”

Then you and everyone who starred you are no better than your hypothetical “get better jobs” commenters.

Some day you may discover that neuropsychology does not reduce to a series of benevolent or malevolent conscious acts.

Are you actually interested in how human memory works - including your own, incidentally - or are you just making a show of your moral outrage?

How do people who remembered something one time forget it at a later time? That’s what “forgetting” means.

The self-driving car hype machine and its uncritical cheerleaders (many of whom work at Jalopnik) deserve plenty of criticism - but this is petty.

Internet sales managers don’t want my business either. Nobody will return an e-mail, let alone a phone call. I’ve had dealers ghost right in the middle of an inventory search. I’m nothing but polite and I’m a serious buyer.

When I was a teenager without two nickels to rub together, I could hardly leave a dealer lot without them throwing me the keys for a test drive. Now when I show up seriously looking at cars, I can’t get the time of day.

It doesn’t have to be self-aware. It doesn’t have to be angry. It doesn’t even have to be recognizably a “being.” For AI to become an existential threat it merely has to 1) be sufficiently resourceful and 2) have goals that are not PERFECTLY aligned with our own. This is what people aren’t getting.

#1 is a challenge, but it’s one that everybody everywhere is working on. The incentive being that whoever gets there first inherits the world.

I don’t remember anyone referring to the Alfa V-6 as “Busso” when it was in production. That nickname seems to have emerged later.

Private lots accessible to the public are subject to vehicle code enforcement in most states. For example:

For gigs and shittles I deconstructed the steering system and rebuilt the dashboard to convert the car to right hand drive.

Do you find your way everywhere without using a map?

Good Lord the commenters here are self-conscious.

She was a bad candidate. It was reckless to nominate a candidate with such large unfavorables who was so well-known. And it was reckless of Hillary to have so greatly underestimated her opponent.

I don’t think “obsolete” and “unsustainable” mean what they think you mean. The Minuteman IIIs are reliable and accurate. $2 billion a year to maintain the most powerful leg of a heterogenous deterrent is definitely sustainable. This is a $19 trillion economy.
