Exactly how autonomous cars should be implemented, attached to a guide system. Putting people who willfully can’t, won’t or don’t want to drive in a car that isn’t fixed to a guide system is dangerous to anyone within crash distance.

So, this is really about how to tunnel faster?  We need a definitive list of all the “But Dad, what I really meant was” diversions.

And there’s His Muskiness babbling away “Mount My Flamethrower to the hood, our motto is Distraction!”

Makes sense, at least for Shenzen ten years ago. Not sure about today but vehicle exhaust created a noxious pall hovering everywhere, sort of like 1950's-60’s US cities. At dusk, when the always humid air cooled a bit, the pall descended into something like in The Fog; made one realize how much cleaner US cities are…

Believe it or not, I know someone who has a yellow version of one of those. It’s cute, sort of George Jetsonish, looks like his hairdo anyway. I’ve never ridden in it but the owner says it’s floaty scary near its top speed of about 25-30 mph, basically a golf cart with a closed body. He lives across a road from a…

How? This:

Yeah it is, that’s an 8 meg pic, there are two dudes inside, too.

We need these young upstarts (Osaka? Yay, great strokes and tactics!) to make women’s tennis worth watching. The old guard “leaders” for the most part are inconsistent and middling at the basics, constantly fiddling with their games. Kerber’s low backhand shots were played almost sitting on the ground for a long time.…

I believe the premise of the article was omitted; something like F1 is better than IndyCar or whatever, otherwise it’s just a comparison of data with a circular conclusion the two are different. Which is obvious but they do look kinda similar.

Agree, autonomous cars on a track are fine, otherwise, they’ll be hacked into walls regularly. I mean, really, if you don’t have the ambition to learn to drive, an autonomous car won’t help your lot a bit.

I used to travel by train within Michigan a lot and to Chicago occasionally. The trips were fine, wide seats, decent speeds, huge windows; only kind of scary part was halting for a few minutes in south Chicago waiting for a track to open. We usually had a sudden urge to bend over to make sure our shoes were tied, I…

Perfect for Tractor Pulls.

I guess it worked or at least was part of the scam package she sold. Totally baffled me how many people were smoked by this farce. If you had ever developed and taken to market medical devices or testing devices it was clear as day Theranos was dead two years before the government slammed them. Lizzie’s sick, should…

“...the company said it was evaluating the overall impact of the issue on Wednesday and is still open to “the possibility of refunds for advertisers.”

I went to school with Dunford in the mid ‘70's. A year or so ago, I saw him on TV, recognized him (hasn’t changed much) and was totally amazed at where his career has gone. He was a great guy. Could be the most successful person from that school.

The donate millions and get your kid in is old hat, part of the gentleman/woman’s C, endorsed by the institution, so legal. Think GW.

Pretty cool.  Bids up to $6500 so far.  That’s great patina, looks like oil spray on everything, free rust proofing!

Time to shoot off another rocket! Save the earth with a rocket launch; yeah, buddy!

That poor horse!

A decade ago, maybe once or week or so I’d walk into work with our CEO. We both came in very early, just a coincidence. This was (still is) a multibillion dollar corporation. He parked in the lot with everyone else, no labeled parking space. Guy was OK, we would chit chat about crap, he’d go up the elevator and I…
