It’s much, much worse. The huge nacelles don’t generate lift in a flat attitude, but generate “MORE LIFT THAN THE WIND TUNNEL TEAM HAD EVER SEEN” in even a shallow pitch-up attitude. The extra lift isn’t the problem. The fact that it generates thousands of pounds of lift, 10 feet FORWARD of nominal Center of Lift, is

Motherfucking truth.

Oh, and while getting to this Hidden Zone of Complexity doesn’t require tools, there are an awful lot of tabs involved:

Best to just let a moose do what it wants, those mofo’s are big.

And why does it have a Fiat 500 on the top?  Or is it a subtle message that he should get Fiat 500?  He should.

I don’t know many 18 - 24 year-olds who buy brand new $25 k cars.

Supposedly it will be released this spring. 

I said *nice* cloth - a hooker’s bedroom is really not that nice.

There is nothing finer than a nice cloth interior.”

You make some good points. Boeing had zero fire under their ass to actually deliver a system, and some rumors I’ve heard is that part of that is that NASA was getting the credit for “building a big ass rocket” and not Boeing, who is always desperate for good publicity and thus more industry control. It took SpaceX to

Cloth seats also don’t crack if left in direct sunlight a lot and don’t need to be wiped down with specific non-caustic cleaning mixes like leather, vinyl, and fake leather do. Just vacuum and then spray Febreeze on

So they upgraded the battery-and-motor system, downgraded the upholstery and threw in a feature that in a sane world would make the car completely uninsurable. Got it. 

I feel like Lifehacker had an article about this fact sometime in the last year-ish. One shower pee a day saves X gallons of water a year... Something like that.

Peeing in the shower is the act of a healthy, normal person. Fight me.

Yeah it’s not going to happen. Hate to say it as a big space junkie but massive federal spending on the economy/pandemic/climate change/etc + change of administration + SpaceX = SLS looking very unlikely. It will make for some nice displays outside museums tho.

SLS is definitely a thing that will happen and something that won’t be cancelled. Definitely.

Wait, nappa leather seats come with fake leather headrests?

The Model 3 has an interior that makes me want to gouge my eyes out.
