partially a result of the smaller social safety net here. Get injured in the US and you need to hope your insurance will cover it

Toilet is mounted on blocks sitting in a tub placed in a field, no connection to anything. It was a totally contained experiment so no worries there.

Drink lots of water, filtered if you live in an area with bad tap water. And don’t hold your pee, go when you need to.

I wonder who raised those “damaged” youth?

You have a good point in that as long as diesel fuel is the same price or cheaper than regular gasoline, the diesel will always come out ahead with the same or better mileage. In my neck of the woods diesel fuel always costs notably more than gasoline.

Diesel has been the obvious choice for people trying to get as many miles-per-gallon as possible. But not in the U.S.

I’ve bought 5 cars new at various points in my lifetime. I test drove all of them. The test drives told me nothing whatsoever about what life would be like with the cars. I certainly can’t get a good feel for any car on a typical short 3 mile / 15 minute test loop. And simply having to go to a dealer and spend half a…

Regulations are by their nature limits not goals.

Bob Lutz has said that he believes it will lead to the commoditization of the car making the vehicle itself about as sexy as a toaster at which point Art and Science are out the window, most people won’t own one but participate in a system like Lyft or Uber.

That is far and away a better memorial than flowers, cards, or paying to put someone’s name on a sign or hunk of stone.

I’m honestly curious ... how does somebody discover bombs in a backpack in a garbage can?

America has a long history of cultural appropriation

Cookie Monster vocals, lol ... I’ve always just called that style “screamo” ... all screamo sucks. It always ticks me off when I hear a really groovy beat with crunchy guitar licks and then the goddamn screaming starts ... the shitty atonal screaming and complete lack of melody in the vocals ruins so much of what…

Reading all the comments here ... it’s almost like Apple fanbois have never heard of bluetooth.

Ummm ... you do realize that just having a wired connection doesn’t make the music “analog”?

I think your umbrage is a tad off target ... the gist of the commentariat was mocking those who praise Apple in ignorance ... those who claim “Apple did it first” or “thanks to Apple” when Apple was just picking up something already in play and using it to advance their own interests.

This is the best FA article I’ve read in weeks. Loved it!!!! Thanks Torch!!!!
