This seems like a halfway decent idea to me (naming conventions notwithstanding). This is not implying that someone isn’t as smart because they are poor. There are obvious advantages to being wealthy when it comes to taking the SAT. Someone who can afford SAT books, tutors, or classes is at a distinct advantage to…

Seems very odd that the GOP is so fond of subsidizing the healthcare of people in other countries at the expense of our citizens. 

I agree with you that the energy costs are lower if you are looking at how much gas it takes to get a person from point A to point B. Personal ownership clearly wins in that case. The winner isn’t as clear if you start to talk about the energy it takes to produce a car. It’s obviously more efficient for one car to be…

The GND galvanized people because they learned about it from people who massively misrepresented it in order to rile people up. Every complaint about it is something about eating hamburgers or not being able to fly, when the actual text of the bill just states the issue and goals - not any recommendations for how to…

Thankfully they also lower the cost of ownership by totally ignoring all of the negative externalities of driving and massively subsidize the oil industry to help everyone out.

Exactly. Which is why it is baffling to me that they can somehow say owning a car costs 72 cents a mile when there is such a huge range of factors that goes into that.

How does the cost per mile of an autonomous car range from $1.58 to $6.01 but a regular car costs a flat $0.72? If I own a car and drive it zero miles in a month I still have to pay registration and insurance and if I live in a city I likely pay (a lot) to park it.

The driver was going faster than the other traffic. The HOV lane is not there so you can drive any speed you feel like.

Wow that’s amazing that you can tell someone’s country of origin just by watching a grainy video of them driving. Very impressive. 

This fits well with his policy of anyone killing a stripped naked brown person while serving in the military gets a pardon.

Ironically Tiffany ends up looking the smartest of all of them just by getting ignored completely.

Yeah this is a legitimately useful feature and should be offered to the drivers as well. Let them drive without bothering them if they don’t want to talk.

This reminds me of a time I was on a plane next to a couple of strangers. Before the flight takes off they exchanged some pleasantries (and ignored me since I had headphones in specifically for this reason). After a couple of minutes the guy very politely said, “I prefer to not have conversations on airplanes so I can…

It’s incredibly easy to make the point that the ncaa is garbage. I’m honestly amazed how many words were wasted on the worst possible example of this. Such a dumb article.

I truly cannot understand wasting this many words on trying to shit on a coach who is by all accounts a great coach and person. The NCAA is a garbage organization and deserves all the bad press it can get, but losing someone like this is only going to make it worse.

I mean he’s not wrong about windmills. A cursory Google search suggests a couple hundred thousand deaths per year.

80% of Americans live in urban areas.

If you have so much common sense you should read the actual text of the deal, which does not mention cows in any way. Someone obviously fucked up when editing and leaking the draft but for that to make it dead in the water is fucking stupid.

I love Budweiser Tapper. Is that game the pinnacle of product placement? Also it is criminal that Burger Time is missing from this.

‘Accidentally’ spill a cup of coffee into it.
