She's becoming an old bird, but damn that's a gorgeous pic!

You shot down my Ekranoplan! cause it technically flies.

If being a fan of military history (or playing enough RTS games) has taught me one thing, it's that cheap inferior weapons can simply overwhelm a more technologically advanced opponent if deployed en mass. And, it's not like the Russians don't mind sustaining higher casualties to win...

Votes are split among the non-Apple routers, while pretty much all Apple users will vote exclusively for the Airport. It's not unlike why despite having a wide variety and many more good Android phones or PC's sold, the few best selling single smartphone or laptop model will still be an Apple, despite comparatively

So as an Oregon driver who has one speeding ticket, does that mean my insurance won't go up (as long as I don't 3 more and loose my licence) because there is no point sys in OR?

Fun!

Makes sense...

Ok - just wasn't sure if you were American. I agree with those politics, but reality is a different matter...

"The answer is comprehensive government regulation. It's not an unreasonable thing to expect." I highly agree, but you seem to be oblivious to actual American politics - with the left/right rhetoric, jobs, freedom, and all those big oil / car manufacturing lobbyists...

What's the advantage of pneumatic controlled valves over solenoids? I would have thought that microprocessor controlled electronic valves would be simpler and more efficient than having to first power a compressor and have all those pneumatic lines.

That's exactly what I've experienced around Portland Or. Good used Subarus and reliable efficient hatch backs, like Honda Fits were practically the same price as a new ones, because during the financial crisis everyone was hanging on to their reliable cars. For practically the same used price, I ended up buying my

That's exactly what I've experienced around Portland Or. Good used Subarus and reliable efficient hatch backs, like Honda Fits were practically the same price as a new one, so I ended up finally buying my first new car. I got a new Fit sport in the color and manual transmission that I wanted with better financing,

I really love the Hyundai and Kia's direction with bold styling and lots of high tech features for the money, but I keep cars for a long time. I'm glad I bought a boring Honda last year. My 18 Yo trouble free Prelude convinced me to stick with a reliable horse...

As a multimedia developer who already uses 3 large monitors, I would love to replace em with a single 4k TV, but then I do video production and gaming on that rig too.

Sometimes it's the plates and some of them I've met and confirmed as CA transplants. Well of course I don't know em all, but it's kind of a running joke around here - just like WA plates means a fast aggressive Vancouver commuter trying to beat traffic and get home. To be fair, native Oregonians are probably more

Half of Raleigh's population are Northern transplants that should be better at driving in the snow. (I think they underestimated the ice..) Over the years I've seen increased traffic of aggressive and inconsiderate northerners who want warmth and cheap housing, yet can't leave their A-hole driving culture behind. Now

I grew up in the South and lived in Raleigh NC for 10 years. Raleigh is actually full of so many Northern transplants that should be better at winter driving, but they often underestimate the ice that the South gets. I would see SUV's (many only with rwd) fly by me, thinking they were immune to snow, only to see them

Also appropriate, since Matt Groneing and the Simpsons are Portland based...
