Cheap gas is good and bad. Obviously it's good right now while we're filling up (~$2.40/gal avg here in ABQ). But the flip side is we'll likely end up with people who buy big SUVs and trucks without knowing when or how much gas prices will go back up. But if gas prices do go back up to crazy levels, I'll be waiting…

Communists. And anybody else who hates freedom. Yup.

Whenever I fly I use my DOE issued badge from work. I need to carry it with me anyway for work purposes, so it works nicely as general ID too. Plus with the whole RealID thing sorta kinda enforced and my driver's license not conforming to it (New Mexico) it's a handy alternative to not carrying around my passport.

Strange. Whenever I fly I use my DOE issued badge and it works every time with no fuss. That being said, the federal government has been slowly working towards a unified badge for all federal agencies (HSPD-12) and that's what mine is.

I use mine for various work documentation, but that's about it. Having a 5.7" smartphone kinda makes a tablet a bit useless. The good news for me at least, is that my tablet is an HP Touchpad that I bought with a pile of accessories, for $130. It actually runs KitKat pretty well, especially when the CPU is…

Exactly. So what AutoNation is offering is the ability to find a car online, reserve the price, put a hold on it with a credit card, and go in and pick up the car.

I was at the race yesterday. You know you're the new bad boy when even Kyle Busch gets more cheers than boos and you get nothing but boos.

Alright, fair enough on the current capabilities of rail. Trucks in metro areas, yes, will still have to happen. I realize I never mentioned that in particular, but I would consider it a success if we get the trucks off of the interstates and other highways stretching across the nation and get things more localized.…

It seems incredibly silly to me that we don't ship all of our cross country freight by rail. Doing so has a whole pile of benefits.

Lowest I've seen in Albuquerque is $2.65/g for regular. Not great, but definitely better than it was a few months ago.

Strange. I just flew on Delta at the end of Sept and it was just as I said. Same back in March too.

I do believe so. You are able to use all small electronics (phones, tablets, e-readers, etc) throughout the whole flight, provided you have it in airplane mode. The only things you have to stow for takeoff and landing are larger things like laptops and such.

That's ok. I'd only want my Hellcat to be part of a cool group anyway. I don't do any of that lone wanderer BS.

Yeah, I can understand leaning towards the Nexus 6. My issue with that is the lack of removable storage. I use the card slot quite a bit on my phones, and even though I can do the USB OTG bit, it's a lot cleaner and easier to go with a card.

My guess would be that in this case 'web only' really just means not bundled with a cable subscription. Seeing as how they already have HBO Go on all kinds of streaming boxes, that would only make sense. Of course, as we know, logic and sense seem to go right out the window when we're dealing with media companies.

I've had mine since Monday. I upgraded from a Note 2 to a Note 4. The difference is staggering. The N2 is still an excellent phone, but the N4 just blows it out of the water. I pretty much agree with everything in this article. However, my big thing is I still hate Touchwiz. I'm already running a different…

I hate that I'm technically a Millennial. But if one of these were close to me I'd totally fake not being able to drive a manual just to drive some of those cars. They're probably way nicer to drive than the old beater F-150 I learned on.

Probably because he doesn't know. Bleah.

I'll have to talk with him then and see what he says. Thanks for the info.
