A friend has one, and she loves it. Yes, she’s a techie, so, this is worth qualifying, but she thinks it’s very useful and great to have.

Maybe, but probably not. This is just showing off, and at any rate, it’s not the US that “accidentally” keeps firing on aircraft.

Gorgeous article. I can see the pictures in your words. :D

Lifelong Yankees fan, grew up as a kid falling asleep in the boxes behind third base (80s, when such tickets were still almost reasonably priced, and my dad got them from his boss), and this shit is just driving me insane. I’m offended by the Yankees’ new policy, and I support anything and everything you can do to…

“We’re one and the same: Deranged.”

Weir: “You destroyed three quarters of a solar system!”
McKay: “Well, five-sixths. It’s not an exact science!”

I have a Kickstarter Failure Story (tm), for reasons that will become obvious if you look into the product. I bought into the MOTA Smartring, because I figured $79 was a great price and risk/reward was perceived to be very high for me. Of course, buying into the marketing videos was also a good way to fall victim here.

Since you mention irradiated foods...

Sadly, that plane would go on to land safely at its destination, and each of those heartless jerks would make it home safely to their warm beds and cold dead hearts.

I’d love to see them expand this into a series with more movies than Fast and Furious (considering that they ran out of material somewhere in the second movie, and PacRim has material for a dozen movies).

Start at the beginning, end the movie with the appearance of the first Jaeger.

Simple. Kick in the repulsorlifts and chop your throttle. Hover.

I expected that to be much more insane than it was. It looked like an absolute blast. I’d do a few slower runs to look over the track, but once I was sure the track was in good shape, I’d blast down it no problem.

I’ve been watching way too much Air Crash Investigation. I’m confident that I could land the plane without any instruction save specific controls on the aircraft I’m in. Not to say that I wouldn’t be listening to every word ATC and an instructor they bring in to talk to me with bated breath!

The one thing I do know…

What a postmodern asshole.

I hope Jason David Frank has a bit part in it! In fact, it would be great if all the original (surviving) Rangers could take a bit part.

ISP access that’s slow, expensive, and competition is virtually non-existent. Hmm... That sounds a hell of a lot like living in a Time Warner exclusive building in NYC.

I love the hecklers in the comments as if they could pull the same thing off with ten times the amount of time SpaceX has had developing the landing system.

I didn’t even learn about this in an Engineering class! I learned about this in some grade school history class. C’mon, people. Are we really that stupid now?

“Herp derp! How do it even tunnel!?!”

Do you even keystone, bro?

Screaming in excitement is even more fun.
