I agree. I have had significantly more bad experiences in taxis than in ubers.

Thirded. Dan Carlin is the SHIT.

Correct me if Im wrong but wasnt there an Nuclear officer test cheating ring that got busted recently?

I can absolutely get behind improvements in command and control as well as hardening our overall military communication system. And if we’re committed to one warhead per icbm perhaps a smaller newer missile would be easier to maintain in the long run. But you’d have to be crazy to think we need more warheads just for…

I highly, highly recommend giving The latest Dan Carlin Hardcore History podcast a listen. It’s titled “The destroyer of Worlds.” There’s a good chance it’ll change your viewpoint on nuclear weapons and how the US and Russia handle them.

America has the older Minuteman III that can only carry one warhead.

Plus farts.

I love Uber purely for the fact that it’s killing the taxi industry. I could write a 100 page book of all the shitty cab experiences I’ve had.

I remember a cab ride from Manhattan to LGA that included driving over 70 mph on city streets.

And that you get an upfront price and you know you can pay with a credit card

When you’re all fucked up, nowhere near home, and need a ride there, you call an Uber. It’s what you do. If you want to save 15% or more on car insurance, you switch to GEICO. It’s what you do.

That seems premature.

Your writing ability is excellent, but your knowledge of business and law are lacking.

Look I’m no fan of Uber, the few rides I’ve taken in an Uber have been terrible and the drivers got lost, but they and other ride sharing companies have been hailed as champions for “Breaking the Monopoly of Cab companies and protectionist government policies” is under fire for not acting like a cab company? That’s…

Yeah, I was pretty disappointed by Jupiter just being another beige ball of a gas giant.

It looks like Willem Dafoe doing Meryl Streep cosplay while reprising his role as the Green Goblin from Spiderman.

Okay.

Ugh, one of those comments.

So does that mean my neighbor’s Mercedes GL350 is considered an American car? And that the CLA-Class is not German but Hungarian?

The generally accepted rule is that it’s the manufacturer’s country of origin, not where it’s built.

Cheers.

They’ll have three AEGIS Destroyers by 2020, and that will make them immeasurably more badass.

I think you are asking about the hoods yes? These are flash hoods. In USN, during battlestation drills, everyone roll down sleeves, tuck poopie suit legs into socks, and wear flash hoods. Some drills require full gas masks.
