Half a second a lap slower and they still finished that Silverstone race a lap down. It’s not -that- close.

In the 2019-20 season of the FIA WEC the current spec Toyota TS050 has had its hybrid system detuned significantly which has left the heavier Toyotas a little bit hamstrung in comparison to the Rebellion Racing R13 LMP1.

Same as how many big rigs were plying the country before there were gas stations and truck stops. Thanks.

Semi-Trucks pass each other because one is going 63 mph and another is going 64 mph.

Cart, meet horse.

It’s well beyond two lanes down here, but a lot of the time it might as well only be two. It isn’t uncommon to see four cars right next to each other going roughly the same speed, all of which are going faster than the far left lane of course... I agree that it should be more than two everywhere AND there should be…

How did you get the photo of Mike Pence during his Coronavirus briefing?

I think the convention is that on one hand we are getting stories saying people at the plants are getting sick; and on the other hand we are being told they are not.

Good on Ohio for making GM pay back the incentive that they tried to pocket and weasel out of their end of the bargain.

Rivian has consistently, quietly, and with great maturity, kept pushing forward with development in a way that’s rightfully earned them a great degree of admiration. Had I the technical skills to be able to pick and choose one company to work for, that’s where I’d hang my hat.

See THIS is why I believe in Rivian.
Their CEO isn’t a massive fucking prick (very much the opposite) and they waited until they had actual functioning vehicles out testing in the real world before they even officially announced what they were working on.
Obviously, it very well could all be sloppy and cobbled together…

I would argue that a month ago, hanging out and eating pizza wasn’t a great idea but I assume you are in a location that wasn’t (and possibly isn’t) hit hard at the time. I can’t speak to your company specifically, but this is my take:

I mean, the US doesn’t really have a functioning court system, either …

Probably so they’ll send people back we want. Their proximity to China and N Korea likely also leads to the US gov wanting to stay cozy there. 

Saturday! Saturday! Saturday! It’s the Covid Trumpy and the Republican Deniers! This may be your last chance to see the them, so hurry up and come on down to Tulsa!

We are still in the first wave. Numbers dropped because the 3 main hit spots got it under control. Otherwise numbers have still been trending upwards.

No one is saying that we shouldn’t start doing things again. The mandatory stay at home orders have been lifted. But people need to stop acting like its fucking back to normal. Not wearing masks is probably the stupidest thing a person can do right now, both in terms of possibly contracting Covid and for spreading it.…

From a not-so-great movie with Val Kilmer and Carrie-Ann Moss called Red Planet. Wasn’t all terrible, just not great.

If you swap the priority of the second and third laws, you make the robots much more useful, and wreck most of Asimov’s stories. ;-P

Three laws should do it right? That should take care of all contingencies with no misinterpretations.
