Thanks, Stephanie. The idea with this story is to go for the most widely available bottles. I know there are better-tasting sauces out there. Will be on the lookout!

Trained economist here: here’s the thing...the current monetary system since we abbandoned the gold standard is completely bunkers and unsustainable. It is completely dependent on debt, deficit and printing more money. The ONLY thing holding up the value of the dollar is other contries’ TRUST that the US govmnt will…

Everyone is ripping on the computer, but there was a human on board equally as capable of applying the brakes and also failed to do so. I wouldn’t mind knowing why.

I don’t expect it to be demonstrably safer than humans at this point. It’s still in its infancy, and it’s impossible for a computer to avoid 100% of accidents, especially when a pedestrian unexpectedly swan dives into the road at night.

includes features like exempting WIC and SNAP recipients from the bag fee.

The idea of calling reusable bags “bougie” shows just how out of touch the US is. Most immigrants I know, POC or not, are used to shopping with their own shopping bags. My own Nana didn’t drive and shopped w/ thin woven bags we got at the swapmeet decades ago. Every poor person I know has totes they could use for…

The chance that the bridge wasn’t approved by external engineering groups is zero.

Generally, I get the mocking and irreverence of the posters on this page because, hey, considering the age and political bent of most posters on here, I get it. But seriously, what a bunch of DB’s some of you are. I hope most of you never suffer what some of you make fun of on a daily basis.

naaahh... not funny. multiple deaths.

I’m an engineer at a company that makes emissions-related components.

Wouldn’t it be crazy if it was found in the following years that multiple auto makers had built cars specifically to beat tests, and that the actual emissions from diesel engines were vastly higher than otherwise reported? Maybe toss in the exposure of the fact that standard emissions tests are inadequate and more…

I never understood head-tracking tech for gaming on a monitor, especially one that doesn’t fill your full field of view. Like, what else are you going to look at? When you turn your head there’s no more monitor there. The effect would be very subtle, and IMO not really worth it.

The flight attendant will have the passenger arrested as a terrorist.

A mother flying with a puppy, an 8 year old and a toddler, I don’t blame her at all.

Light management is actually pretty easy. By using full cutoff fixtures, directing light only where it’s needed, and using certain frequencies of light you can eliminate most of the light pollution.

I have faith that they will sell all 5.

I just posted my bike pullover story. Nice to know I’m not the only one.

I used to ride on the road a lot, although I much prefer mountain or gravel riding now. My dad still road bikes semi-regularly, and last year their entire group of about 15 people were pulled over for “impeding traffic” riding single file up a hill out of town. The cop told them to split up into groups of 3 and spread…

I was riding down the side of a country road on my bike. Not a motorcycle, a legitimate bicycle with 14 speeds, skinny tires, and me in a lot of spandex. A County Sheriff blows past me, makes a u-turn, then comes up beside me and signals for me to pull over.

I’ve always deserved it, everytime. I drive like an idiot. I’ve been let off of a ton of tickets too. I’m always surprised when I get let off. I can’t make rhyme or reason of it or what happens that they let me off but I’m always really glad.
