Did everyone complain about the timeline jumps in season one of Westworld? I don’t remember that happening and I suspect it’s because of the premise.

I’m utterly baffled at how misunderstood this show is. The timelines were not that hard to follow. Plus they have the benefit of setting up thoughtful episodic parallels between the characters: see Geralt de-cursing the Strega producing a beautiful princess that retains her feral attitude while Yennifer is transformed.…

Hey, than you for your support.

Are you OK? Do you need a hug?

Nothing will happen.

Boeing is heading into a zone of danger. 

New cars are only more expensive because that’s what we’re buying.

However, it is currently unclear if that 30 second time limit is supposed to charge the whole battery, or if it is intended to provide a boost in battery power without actually fully recharging it.

Why they didn’t immediately retrofit with THREE AoA sensors mystifies me.

Probably because people will accept a taxi having ugly lumps and radar arrays all over it do to autonomous right, but would be upset that their private car looked like that. 

Scared enough to sleep with your gun, but not scared enough to get rid of the camera.

They’ve basically decided that they can’t compete with the Camry/Civic/Corolla/Accord, so they’ve given up. The Fusion is/was still the 4th best selling Ford, fwiw...

As much as we hoot and holler on here about sedans this and brown cars that, market trend shows just the opposite. Crossovers out sell sedans 4 to 1. Data clearly shows regular people don’t want what jalops want so that’s what we get. Hell, even the best selling sedan (Camry) in America is now being out sold by its…

“Some 42% of Ford Focus and Chevy Cruze compact car owners have stayed in the compact car segment with a significant percentage buying competitors’ vehicles”

So, who ever is currently in charge of Chevrolet’s design team (I suspect Michael bay) needs to be fired and has no business doing this.

“... whizzing around Earth at velocities up to 17,500 miles per hour...”

Free bus is better than Seattle’s idea. We are building light rail that no one rides. Our light rail takes double the promised completion time at double the budget. Free bus service can easily change locations as the population changes. Better than using technology from the 1800's that can't move. 

In these tug of wars, traction is king. You want a real towing test, take something like an 8000 lb trailer and line the trucks up side by side at the bottom of a long grade. Then race up the grade. Then turn around on the top and come back down. Truck that gets to the top first and is the quickest/least dramatic to…

Those truck pull stunts are always bullshit. The heaviest truck almost always wins. It’s a traction game. No one is surprised an EV truck is heavier than an F-150 and no one is surprised an AWD truck beat out another truck in 2WD mode.

This is hardly the first time satellites have caused headaches for astronomy. The first-gen Iridium network was notorious - the flares could be as bright as magnitude -9, bright enough to see under a noon sun. I couldn’t find anyone who’s done accurate measurements of Starlink sat brightness, but the “v0.9" ones were…
