According to the SpaceX junkies, the core ran out of fuel on 2 out of the 3 engines they planned to use for landing. I think the speed at core/stage 2 separation was quite high - 9,500 km/hr - compared to 5,000 km/hr to 8,000 km/hr for a typical Falcon launch. I am guessing that’s why SpaceX was experimenting with…

This! I always laughed at how Worf gets a pass for breaking the bridge crewmember’s spine in half. Like, whoops, oh well, these things happen. And the cleanup of the ship afterwards must have taken weeks.

I noticed some lag on my 6-plus with 10.3.3 but after upgrading it seems to have smoothed out. What I was seeing was a delay or screen stutter when scrolling quickly in Twitter or Safari. The 11.0.0 build seems to have smoothed that out.

The troubling behavior of this guy runs deep.

This was from a local reporter’s twitter feed. He shared it so we could see how desperate some of the girls are. So sad in so many ways.

I really miss that show.

Renault Alliance. 1983. Can’t tell you how many times this thing left me stranded. It totally refuse to start too many times to count. The rear suspension had a nasty habit of disentegrating about once per year. I think the bushings basically crumbled into dust causing metal-on-metal rubbing. The automatic…

I had this exact model and year. Surprisingly fast and it handled quite well. Also, it had a huge amount of interior space. The only drawback was the infernal automatic seatbelt. My wife got clocked in the head numerous times by that damn thing sliding back and forth. I call it a sentimental Nice Price.

Not sure. I know there was an option on the driver controls to enable or disable the call-911 feature. I always turned it off. Maybe they give you a free year or something through SYNC? I just assumed it was a free service. This was on a 2011 Mustang and a 2013 Fusion so maybe they’ve changed or updated the options…

This was the first thing I turned off on both Fords I owned. The last thing I wanted was the car calling the cops on me.

I'm surprised West Virginia isn't lower on the list. Since they state kicked Verizon out and enabled a regional monopoly with Frontier Communications, the service has been beyond dismal. You're lucky to get a stable 1.5M/384K service. What they try to pass off as FIOS is a disgrace. And since they're a regional…

Frontier Communications customer here. It's a regional monopoly and they are terrible. Most of us are lucky to get 3M/512K speed. The majority of us seem to be mired in the 1.5M/384K range on a good day. Most days there are problems which send us into dial-up speed territory. And we get to spend $60 a month for…

These are great. I've am using 4 or 5 of them currently and they work really well. Knock on wood, I've never had one fail. I have used them on both Mac and PC and would definitely buy another one if I was in the market.

Did I see Arabic writing on that note that was passed from Kiddie Porn's Lieutenant to the "Real American Government" lady? Or was it code? He sealed it with a wax seal that looked like it had some Masonic Seal. She read it real quickly — and it didn't look like English words — then chucked it into the wood stove.

Engine sticking out like that looks like the facehugger from the Alien movies.

I think you need an email client that you can set as primary in order to disable the metro app. When I started using Outlook, it opened up on the desktop since that's the only place Outlook works currently. I imagine Thunderbird would do the same. I noticed the same behavior with Firefox. If I make that my primary…
