strike that, reverse it. Cos or sin, respectively.

the horizontal and vertical speed are vector quantities. Though the are not independent of each other they can be calculated independently based on the angle and initial velocity. The component velocities (x and y, to save space) are equal to the initial velocity times the sine or cosine of the angle, respectively.…

Doesn't aftermarket decrease the value vs stock? Or at least depreciate faster?

I drove some beast of an American luxury car a few months back (Chrysler 300, I think) and it had a ton of bullshit options, like cup holders that can chill OR heat your beverage. But man, the in dash navigation was nice. The GUI was about as hamfisted as you'd expect, they'd be much better off going with something…

Your strongest point, imo, is the comparison to the London system.

I'm tired of being pending.

those look like victory arms to me

I'm a physicist and former mathematician and I heard the same story, from a math professor, I believe.

random segway: in my hometown there's an old honda shop that does a few repairs and lives on sales of a stockpile of classic honda parts they acquired in the early oughts, i think from another local shop that went out of business. They were doing a bumper internet sales business off a five year old desktop on dial up.…

for some reason I always preferred the 2 door sedan to the hatchback in this model series

Is that ship in the gif a firefly class?

If delorean made a minivan , this is what it would look like.

is that a wedge? I was just going to ask about that.

the 'infotainment' system in Mazda's is similarly situated. It's a shame it's a turd because I love the way they look.

He lives in my hometown metro area, so the first thing that caught my attention was "when my kids go to school". I'm sure very few of the teachers are as nerdy as me/us, but can you imagine having a 'Torvalds' in you class? Hermione Torvalds? Are you related to...? (I'm sure that's not his child's name).

I learned third hand about the "HALTs". I think it originates in addiction counseling, but my sister and I use it all the time. We're LOUD, combative, and most people can't stand to be around us together, but we are very close and have no problem with our preferred method of communication. Still, we've had our times…

Linus Torvalds uses a Pixel running Fedora. His previous machine was a macbook Retina. I don't suppose he has installed linux, but Linus thinks that the chrome OS doesn't properly showcase just how powerful that machine really is.

"Well begun is half done" - Mary Poppins. That one was a slow burn, I had to think about it for quite a while before I really understood: get a project started right, and thats half the job. One strange application I've found is to relationships, when I or a friend is tempted to start something in less than honorable…

This makes me want to cry.

In my opinion (everyone has one) the issue is not the machines, but the secure and faithful safeguarding of the voting data. This has been proven by many scientific sources to be shoddy at best (Argonne National Lab et. al). There are quite a few non-profits that are working on solid, secure, verifiable voting data…
