I couldn't care less about whiny X-Box owners. Have they ever heard of Marathon and the Myth series? I played those Bungie games in the late 90's before the company was acquired by Microsoft. We were eagerly anticipating the release of Halo on PC back then, and then Bungie/Microsoft screwed PC gamers by announcing…

The picture is instantly recognizable to the vast majority of Americans of TV watching age in 1986. I was in 8th grade at the time, and I remember that day clearly. The photo doesn't show a funny-shaped cloud, it shows the rocket plume, explosion, and trails from the two rocket boosters and debris. It's a picture…

SIP's response is deplorable, but what's up with the dates on the messages? It was over two months between her question and the reply?

The system was designed for rural airports and older facilities that can't justify the expense of building a new tower. Naturally, it's designed for airports with minimal traffic, but it could also be used to expand the capabilities of an existing airport since it can be moved and repositioned easily. Now if they can…

Every conference call I've attended:

It looks to me that the camera is on the handlebar. The cyclist didn't see the SUV until the last second. They're both responsible for looking where they're going and warning others on the path.

If the cyclist was looking to the side, the driver failed to warn the cyclist by tapping the horn. Cyclists routinely earn other cyclists and pedestrians who may not be aware of them.

This news multiplies the chance I'll buy a Buick by 450%! Although, the chance was originally zero.

When I worked at JLG Industries, I learned quickly to drive boom and scissor lifts slowly over bumps. Caught a little air in the basket, but always had a harness and never flew out. Driving at full height in creep mode was always a bit nerve-wracking with all the swaying.

The dashboard with multiple displays is completely wrong for 2025. They're not looking far enough ahead.

Seatbelts on the inner side of the seats are what allow the minimal B-pillar and wrap-around glass. Love it.

I didn't say aerospace couldn't do it, I said automakers could do it just as well. Read the rest of that post to see why aerospace is not a good choice. It's meant to be a humorous example of the quirks of the aerospace industry.

Just let him out of prison, he'll be dead within a few hours.

You answered your own question. Automakers have resources: expertise, materials, processes, manufacturing, testing, etc. If an aerospace company worked on it, the sled would be 10X cost, 5X schedule, 3X the parts for redundancy, and it wouldn't carry people.

Tow a car and you can do a self-PIT maneuver. Fixing the dip in the road might help.

Too much stress and not enough sleep. He's burnt out.
