Like most stories about Republican infighting, this is one without a hero—just a gay congressman waking up one day and realizing he’s been vocally supporting and enabling a bunch of homophobic men who hate him.

Yeah classic case of “if I side with them, they’ll exclude me from their persecution”. Nah dude. It doesn’t work like that. They hate you too. You’re a useful idiot for as long as it is profitable for them. At that point, they’ll wash their hands of you.

Dealerships be like:

If you have to wait 13 weeks, I say now is the best time to renew your passport

It really does, pretty much the exact kind of place to have for charging stops, stop, wander, micturate, ingest, all while your car chugs down electrons on a fast charger, get enough range for another two hours or so on the freeway. Would do wonders for road trip anxiety in more rural areas.

The irony is that a buc-ees makes an even better argument as an EV charging station

Yet another reason to throw your neighbor’s costco card in the dumpster.

Because they are enforcing a rule the original card owner agreed to? 

Their card printers always print Gameboy Camera/Printer quality photos.

The photo on the app is the only good quality photo. (and it’s in colour)

I was just at Costco yesterday and always use self-checkout. As soon as I walked up, the nearby employee promptly asked to see my card before I could even start scanning. First time ever.

I really hope everyone involved here has read “Packing for Mars” by Mary Roach. If not, do it now, it is fascinating! It really shows that the rocket-part of getting to Mars - and living there - is far and away the easy part. Living in confined spaces with compromised gravity, nutrition, hygiene, and other dumb-ass…

I think a lot of people underestimate the abuse of track driving. 5,000+ pounds + 631 HP = ultra severe brake duty. If the owner was not using track pads/fluid, I’m guessing the brakes would fry within 2 laps. For my GTI with 1/3 the power of this thing, I faded a set of street pads one time doing some “high speed smoo…

So, it’s the Performance version of the Performance version of the Performance version of the A6.

I know that hindsight is 20/20 and all that, but just hearing Rush talk the way he did about the problems the sub was experiencing would have been enough for me to nope right out of there. It all seemed so casual for an outfit that wanted to take inexperienced tourists into the most inhospitable reaches of the planet:…

Your pilot also needs to somehow use the xbox controller with one hand, since he needs to stabilize him self with the other so he doesn’t crash into the other passengers. Jesus, he’s just an awful engineer IMO.

I don’t think we should - honestly - this needs to be a big fucking wake up call to arm-chair adventurers, wealthy self-financed explorers, extreme-tourists, and DIY types - the shit you’re planning on doing is serious. It’s risky. It takes decades of experience, millions upon millions of dollars and real education…

He better thank the storm that robbed him of the chance of being turned into superheated gas/liquid faster than humans perceive reality or pain.

Watch the video, no way NASA made that thing. Maybe they had an ex-NASA employee build it. If you google images of NASA building stuff for critical applications, they do it all in a clean room and everyone is wearing clean room attire. Any contaminants that get into a critical pressure vessel like this such as dust,…

From all I’ve read, no one at OceanGate and no media sources have claimed that NASA built *any* component(s) of the Titan craft.

Yeah, but do you know much much trucks and cranes you can buy for the cost of a 5" thick custom made Carbon Fiber cylinder?
