Salvor Hardin dying while chucking a knife into someone’s chest in a gunfight is like Ghandi losing to mechagodzilla in the Kumite. 

“Guy I don't like didn't participate in terrorism. Send him to the torture chamber!"

The real stars of the show are the Volume and the VFX team. Most everyone else just kinda stands around looking stern for 30 minutes while animators stoically advance a plot. 

You Need To Change The Way You Think About Charging

This is getting sad

Suing somebody for only hiring lawful residents is my new pick for “Peak 2023."

That last line isn't the main takeaway, it's cowardice. Headline, thesis, and body of the whole article are arguing against speedway racing altogether. 

I’m whelmed, which is frankly a welcome improvement over recent Star Wars content. It’s fine. It’s probably going to get better and I’ll keep watching, so, job done I suppose.

I was shocked that, in one season, Peripheral had not yet overstayed its welcome. Ambitious shows like it so frequently land a core idea or two, but muddle the execution or don’t bother nailing details. I kept waiting for the bad shoe to drop, and I guess this is it. Farewell, Peripheral, you had me.

I do play, but not that guild. I'm in East Endor Trading Co. Apparently family guy also stumbled on this low-hanging pun, so I assume there's lots of millennials falcon.

I like to imagine that there are people out there who genuinely enjoy the Apple TV+ adaptation of the Foundation. I wonder sometimes what they would think of Asimov's series of books, if they ever bothered learning to read.

That is some faint praise.

I mean that's already totally true. You can take off vfr from anywhere you want and go anywhere you want. 

While it may be good news in the eyes of the rich, it’s bad news for everyone else.

Mara Math, a leading member of the San Francisco’s Paratransit Coordinating Council, said, “Remember the Jetsons? We were promised that automation would offer a golden age for us. And, as usual, it turns out to be more of a golden shower on us.”

But even accounting for an impaired driver, the facts of how the Model X behaved in this case are alarming. WSJ found the driver in question had to be reminded 150 times in a 34-minute period to put his hands on the wheel with one alert coming seconds before the crash.

It should be noted that you can (and probably should!) also plant some things — which can definitely be done on a budget. Find some young native plants at your local nursery or big-box store. You can get large mature plants for immediate impact and there’s plenty to be said for that — or you can get small trees and…

On 4. Politically I think it’s more complicated than that. America votes very predictably along geographic lines — city vs. rural is about the best predictor of left/right that we’ve got. It so happens that things like EV range and charging infrastructure (and to a lesser extent the fire risk) are less of a big deal…

Everything. Put them in everything. 

You can also buy a 5-gallon bucket (or two, or three, or whatever works for your area) and drill it full of holes. Stick them in the ground at the edges of your garden and fill ‘em up. Worms will migrate between the buckets and poop out worm castings directly into your plant roots.
