I struggled through the first episode for sure, but once I understood what the series was really about (a vehicle to demonstrate fun science stuff) I ended up enjoying it.

Oh Cook is great!

Right. I'm just saying I hope they don't stay out forever. 

LOL What. Villeneuve was washed. Sato was an up and comer. Of course they put him in the car. And you know what: he was better!

I really hope Honda stays in the engine game. They’re basically the reason I root for AlphaTauri. Honda belongs in motorsports.

Tory Belleci’s new thing on Amazon with Richard Hammond is pretty good. It’s a little silly/campy, but he and Richard have a good rapport, so I’m hoping maybe they do more stuff together down the road.

This is amazing. Holy shit.

Hell yeah.

Less than meets the eye

Lucid dreaming is fuckin wild. I used to have bouts of it when I was younger, highschool through my mid-twenties. It always happened when I was spending a lot of time somewhere (school during musical season, work during busy season, etc) and not getting a lot of sleep for days at a time. Eventually I would start…

I think, if anything, the purpose of a sub-brand like this should be to do things like offer more complex and capable 4WD systems like you can get on things like the Cherokee and Grand Cherokee. Think the Outback but with the Quadra-Trac II, or the Forester with ActiveDrive Lock. Trailhawk these sumbitches.

I really don’t know how you can possibly make a Cruella de Vil origin story compelling like you can with The Joker. The Joker getting radicalized into hating people is way more palatable than Cruella getting radicalized into hating animals.

This would need to be the darkest Disney character movie of all time. Like,…

I think if it were me I would have proposed going with a commercial size module, maybe something like an REC TwinPeak 400W. The cost would be higher but 8 of them would have fit perfect in landscape and he could have a few hundred watts more. 

This is a pretty standard rooftop install. I looked at Brad’s site for him months ago and ballparked 6 SunPower modules, so Great Basin cramming 9 Q-cells up there is nice work, even if it's not perfect looking. 

My chain hits my chest

Yeah, I think Indian Motorcycles might get a little more leeway than the sports teams. Maybe if the Indian brand was more prolific it would get more attention, but it’s kind of a niche brand in a niche market. They’ve never heavily (there are a few examples...) trafficked in the racist iconography in their…

I’ve actually done some digging around on this because I try to be pretty “woke” when it comes to the appropriation issues, and I really can’t find much. People like me are certainly asking “does this bother anyone?” and it doesn’t seem like there is anything brewing. Some anecdotal evidence hints at indigenous bikers…

This is exactly it. Path of least resistance. Why deliberately make driving more stressful/dangerous than it needs to be?

Maybe it’s because for most of my life I drove crapcans that didn’t have the power or safety to let me take risks, but I always try to go with the flow because it’s not worth it to shave a few extra…

Don’t expect other drivers to be “courteous” to you because you want to do stupid things. It’s not my problem that you want to make a left out of the gas station at a busy intersection. Make a right like an adult and go around the block. It’s not my problem that you need to be in the left turn lane on a 4 lane road…

Very cool. I'm going to have to check out that truck series race.
