The great wall is just an elaborate ruse, and it worked! We successfully lured the Manchurians into joining China, people and land and all.

I read an article somewhere that over half of all cars parked in downtown LA displays disability placard. So they clearly have bigger problems to fix. Why bother with scooters?

Wireless charging for EVs.... what is it like? Does it turn the car into a giant microwave oven? Is there really no serious health risk to people or animals?

Coupe means 2-door. This car only has 2 doors, so it is technically a coupe. Nothing says the two doors have to be located on different side of the car. There’ll be two versions, a left-doored version for right-side-drive countries, and right-doored version for wrong-side-drive countries. In the US, you get the…

Ok Saab is a stretch; but it is not for lack of trying. GM really want it dead.

The count down starts until BMW are just rebadged Toyota Camry and Corrola. I give it 5 years.

You should always refill your own propane bottles. First of all, you take care of it, so you know it is safe. Next, you know exactly how much propane is put in there, as opposed to the so-called “full” tank at these exchange places.

Boeing also neglected to give 737 pilots extra training on the new system, because MCAS was only likely to come into play in such extreme flight situations.

As a software engineer, I’m afraid of self-driving cars too.

I had a company install a bunch of recessed lights; in the process they took down 3 ceiling fans. They asked me if I want to keep the fan; I said yes. A few minutes later, I noticed one guy walking with 2 fan hubs toward his car. I asked him, and he said “you only wanted that one fan”. WTF!!!
