Just like deep sea submersibles!  What’s the worst that could happen, bro?

I can’t imagine why tunnel engineers would be more conservative. Seems like an industry rife with opportunities for pushing the envelope for occupant safety. 

It doesn’t matter how the speed limit was set when things have changed so much. Here in Chicago the speed limit on most highways is 55 MPH, but good luck doing that speed and NOT eventually chasing a collision given that outside of rush hour, traffic typically flows between 70 and 90 MPH. I drove my Caterham into the…

Ever since the pandemic ended people are so much more aggressive

To be clear, “blow[ing] in place” (BIP) is standard procedure among EOD teams, especially if you can’t guarantee that the material can be safely transported.

Dang, a bomb neighborhood got blown up? This must be one of those cities that got burned to ground I keep hearing about. Or was it an epic 90's themed community that’s been lost?

they do... when smaller streamers do something noteworthy. Smaller streamers generally dont do anything newsworthy. Someone with 1 or 2 viewers isnt going to suddenly break the internet.

I know the Big 3 don’t get the bidness things right often but the marketing genius who suggested that if they just got rid of the smaller trucks and only sold impractical brodozers that most people don’t need for 2-3X the price was......absolutely correct.

Alberta elected a premier who said the unvaxxed were the most descriminated against group in history, she also believes that smoking can be good for you. They passed a nine month moratorium on renewable energy and are using a law to block a federal net zero law on electricity. Oddly nothing against lgbt yet but I…

Sadly, this is happening all over the planet. 

The next version of Farm Simulator is gonna be way more intense.

I work with teachers in Alberta, one of whom recently retired due to people in her community saying that she was trans and that her husband was doing gender reassignment surgery inside the school. She said the pressure was far too much and just wanted to get out of her community

Pretty sure that’s a Lambo, dude.

I’m actually okay with sailing ships gaining traction again. At least they’re lovely to look at. 

I am someone who constantly challenges my own beliefs. I will sit and ask myself ‘Why do I believe this? Is there any evidence or perspective that I haven’t considered. Do I need to reassess my stance’? One of those beliefs is that we need to tax the rich more. Looks like I won’t be challenging that one any time soon.

I disagree, TBH.

That’s an extremely naive understanding of supply and demand. It’s the economics equivalent of the “frictionless vacuum” physics problem.

At a certain point, those who create the supply have enough money to artificially ensure demand. Just like governments can alter supply and demand through taxes, tariffs, and laws,…

The UAE in general is itself “Shady”. A collection of nations run under the rule of a few families who have been milking their populations for generations and have become insanely wealthy because oil just so happened to be under their land. And its our faults for agreeing to look the other way as they commit…

1st Gear: What Ford should be doing is looking into the real reason why they’re not moving as much product. They might want to crack down harder on their dealers for the excessive markups as a starting point.

But hybrids will turn off the gas engine while the car is not moving for extended periods.
