And Lewis, of course!

There’s a Robert Redford film where he’s sailing across the ocean and runs into a mostly-submerged, floating shipping container that, predictably, puts a new window in his boat.  I think of this scene every single freakin’ time I’m out on open water, now, now matter the size of the vessel.

The shipping industry as a whole has been in quite a state since the pandemic. One of the specifics I remember seeing was that 3x more containers have wound up on the ocean floor than before 2020 because the ports are in such a mad rush, that standard safety checks and whatnot regularly get skipped.

I learned the word fenestration in an architecture class i.e. the arrangement of windows on a building. After that, I always assumed that defenestration was the act of removing windows. ;-)

This is a tricky area. I’m 46 years old and when I went to college things were very different. I spent the first two years going to community college, which in the state of Tennessee was heavily subsidized. It was roughly $1200 per year. And then I was able to transfer to a four year college where they accepted those…

Gizmodo Media is based in NYC and is unfriendly to remote work, so actually there is a good reason to live there.

Pffft...expensive vintage cars are so 2020. Building your own dick-shaped rocket is the new cool for billionaires. To the moon baybeee!

Unfortunately for anyone who attended a school that went under like that, they often can’t get a job that requires an accredited degree. There are a lot of jobs out there that needlessly ask for some type of degree and it makes no difference, but particularly in fields like education, law, engineering, & healthcare,…

Didn’t see this article sooner. Submitted for approval, the Norton Commando in “Yellow Peril”.

Oh, I remember Fancy Kristen, I just never noticed the abbreviation before. Jalop since 2008; pulled in by DAF v FAF.

Yep, just grabbed the first picture and noticed the Union Jack afterward. 

This was equally entertaining!  Came here to post this.

You can actually make out the cat’s head dropping inside, which makes it all more funny! Imagine that ad running today?

If we’re doing bikes too, we can’t forget Kenny Roberts’ Yamaha.

I know we all have different interests and value different things. But, If someone has 1.8M to blow on rusted scrap metal then they have too much money.

No, it’s not a burnt-out husk of rusting shitty metal; it’s a Ferrari in race damaged condition. Give me money!

Kinda where I’m standing. This sounds like something that they have been trying to resolve in private for more than a few years and now it is moving into the open in the courts. 

Not to sound reasonable or anything, but something went very badly somewhere, not just in the last week. It is not worth much, just being a random internet opinion, but I think I will wait until all the story comes out. As for the movie money - Hollywood accounting should be illegal. Oher is not the first or last…
