Ah to be dyslexic.
I read “One of the Most Timely Novels of the Year is About Hunting Black Women in the 1880's” and was like okay Banksy, little too on the nose there

The actual novel sounds great, though, thanks for the article!

I’m so sorry for your loss! Shes absolutely gorgeous. The only thing more cruel than FIP is Gilead Sciences keeping a proven cure out of the hands of vets.

Weird how this almost comes full-circle.
Cats have their own feline version of coronavirus that infects 85%+ of domestic cats. FCoV is largely symptom free, but in rare cases leads to Feline Infectious Peritonitis (FIP), which is almost always fatal but is curable using the antiviral GS-441524... which is functionally…

I mean, not to be an armchair engineer any more than I am literally an engineer sitting in a chair that happens to possess armrests...

But why does this have to happen in-motion? Especially if the original intent was measuring tread wear?

Any sufficiently accurate ToF sensor could sit in the wheel well and look at the…

I’m an engineer who’s always had a thing for both automotive engineering and defense technology (grant it, largely aerospace, not nautical)...

And some-fucking-how it took until THIS ARTICLE for my brain to realize “hey, diesel engines require oxygen for combustion, where the hell do diesel subs get it from while…

I mean, I think the 40k Commuter is on the right track for the wrong reasons.
40,000 miles a year is ~110 miles a day. Autopilot will be a godsend, you’ve clearly got other cars as backups for long trips or if you get unlucky and end up in a Tesla service queue, and you’ll save a shitton on gas as mentioned.
But I…

It seems expensive, but it wildly undercuts most mobile/action cinematography lighting. I think the big market here will be major studios who are already in the GoPro ecosystem and are looking for more compact and rugged ways to light their subjects on the go- think night filming for The Grand Tour or documentary…

All your points are right, but I think the most important sticking point is the damage being done mining for fissile fuel.

Obviously, from a utilitarian perspective, the raw power relative to the environmental damage done from mining will always be better than coal and might even be better than fracking. I’m a huge…

Neutral - I wish. I’ve got a beautiful ‘05 Madone 5.2 in blue hanging from the wall taunting me every day. I just can’t do the Phoenix heat this time of year.

I see you’ve finally reached the “give up and become an Expat to escape the law” stage of your car cleanup saga... Good luck! Stay in touch! <3

All want police accountability
Most want police force’s funding reduced and those funds distributed to social work, affordable housing, healthcare, addiction centers, and other things that actually improve the health and safety of communities.
A vocal few (largely under an anarchist banner) want to see police forces…

Anytime! The major take-away, though, is that it’s pretty disingenuous to advertise a cornering acceleration from a banked track, because then anyone could just go hit the top speed on a sufficiently banked track and claim whatever ridiculous g number they want.

Either that or they’ve figured out some crazy ground…

Bored, recently laid-off engineer here.
Centripetal acceleration is the square of the tangential velocity divided by the radius of the turn at the moment of interest.

Lets get a reference point to start out. There’s a fairly flat exit ramp near my house that, if Google Maps is to be believed, is about 900 feet in…

Really it was a disgrace all around, failing many companies that did legitimately need it, including the one I worked for, leading to me and 60% of the ~125 person company getting laid off.

Modern Warfare + Warzone is about 100GB, so at a not-uncommon 3Mbps (especially at peak times in crowded apartment buildings) would take 80 hours to download.

I have zero sympathy for recreational hunters losing out on the “fun”. I can’t believe that was ever even a salient argument.

Comment of the Day needs to come back just for this thread.

JSRF was the first console game I ever owned because it came bundled with my original Xbox alongside SEGA GT. I had a lovely time dusting it off and playing it again recently, it holds up better than I expected!

This is an annoying conversation and we’re all entitled to our opinions and interpretations, but I take specific issue with your Book 2 Take, especially in the context of your claim earlier that the supporting cast always save the day...
Go back and watch the fight. She was DUNKING on Vaatu. No contest.
Until Mako and…

Gas could hit $8 a gallon, EVs get outlawed, and they start selling these new off the lot for $10k and I wouldn’t go for it.
Not because I’m some piston head who compulsively performs oral on every stickshift I see...
Literally it’s just because of the goddamn whale-tail in the back. It’s the ugliest thing on the road…
