In fact, every single one of those issues started becoming problems in the late 70's, when, ironically, the very people you claim complain about these things started taking office.

I have no idea what you are talking about. Those are all problems millennials and younger Gen-xer’s face; most boomers actually had those things and have only more recently seen them start to go away en mass, long after their parents retired from the work force and from public office.

but Reuters reports that Ford, Fiat Chrysler and General Motors are happy with the content rules because they “would allow North America to remain competitive” in the global market.

History lesson: The boomers saw the previous generation as the cause of all the problems. Vietnam. Pensions going away. No jobs for life. No single income families. Millennials see boomers in the same way. War in the Middle East. Jobs with no benefits like health insurance. Runaway costs in college education. Guess…

Or it’ll die as soon as that percentage of millennials who actually fit the stereotype stop proving its truth...

Wasn’t my experience. More like the opposite. Check your stereotypes.

Yeah, the meme that all boomers see millennials as lazy snowflakes needs to die. Now get off my lawn.

One of Elon’s BFRs. Travel anywhere in the world with roughly 30 minutes flight time, and it’s big. As in big is part of the name.

It’s looking like we are going to be talking about Musk, Dieselgate, and tariffs at least until the 2020 elections. Or until the heat death of the universe. More likely the latter.

Years ago, I had the wind catch the door on my car as I was getting out and pulled the door handle out of my hand. I had the rubber guard on the edge, so it didn’t cause a ding or scratch on the car next to me. It was an edge case; I don’t remember that happening any time since then. They’re more ‘just in case.’

I don’t know. Did the Truck driver signal his lane change? If I’m merging onto the highway and I see a truck in the left or middle lane, I should be able to assume that if his signal isn’t on, I can move into the right lane without worrying about him. If he didn’t signal his lane change, he’s at least partially at…

The older I get, my patience for any kind of waiting in line further approaches zero.

True, but if the engine fails, you can possibly autorotate to an (almost) safe landing. If the rotor fails, it’s in the same category as a failed Jesus Nut: If it fails, you’re going to be seeing Jesus really soon.

To be a little more accurate, the oil industry has some specific tax breaks that only apply to their industry. There are of course other industries that also get tax breaks that target just their industry. But let’s not pretend that the oil industry enjoy special treatment by the government that many others don’t.

Especially the bits that keep it flying, like the rotor blades.

You can clearly see the roof tops of the shorter buildings, and it looks like the drone may have been close to even with some of the higher buildings. I’d say it was over 400' and the guy is just doing CYA.

Since it’s horseshoes I’m assuming the steak was horse meat.

So, was his mobile home totaled?

The point being that the non-drive wheels will lock up before the drive wheels, whereas if the drive wheels are not being driven, all four wheels are more likely to reach the lock up point at the same time for a given braking pressure. Meaning shorter braking distance.

So the parts about Samsung’s take on overnight charging, and The Verge’s comment about battery management on Android O doesn’t count?
