It’s actually brilliant: One drunk gun-nut will start shooting to settle an argument about whose lives matter, then all the other drunk gun nuts will think he’s an active shooter and start shooting. Then all the drunk gun nuts near them will shoot the 2nd-generation shooters, and so on until all the gun nuts are dead.

I wish (but don’t think) this will happen, but oh man would it bring the drama. Both are uncompromising on track and don’t really care what people think of they do on track. They’d probably put each other into the wall more in one season than Rosberg/Hamilton did in 3.

For that type of generic commodity, it’s 100% about the opportunity for name recognition for the advertising company. When you need some flooring and they’re the only company you can even think of that sells flooring locally, you’ll probably at least explore their pricing.

If there’s a crack in the tube, you decelerate from the increased atmospheric resistance. There would be _more_ oxygen for you to breath compared to if there wasn’t a crack in the tube (since most hyperloop designs are a semi-vacuum, and a crack would let air in).

In the ultra-strict world of being a passenger, I’m not sure I’d want to be able to do something potentially described as “unauthorized access to computing systems” while on a plane, lest I become very good friends with the FBI once I land. Especially not to save $10.

Another thought is that the Lotus team has shown sparks of quality -they were right up there a couple seasons ago. Might’ve been a fluke, but it’s quite possible it was like Hamilton/Mercedes: he probably got a look at their preliminary data and saw it was good. To step down from Force India when they might be 4th

NFL Gamepass in Canada (don’t know about USA) actually has an accelerated-game option where the NFL edits out the bullshit. 30 minutes per game, though it does take some focus to remember (ok, it’s 2nd and 4 for the Browns), because there’s no announcer to help. Great to put on during a workout.

Circa 2012, the Prius C (of all things) had a pretty solid variety of extremely bright colours.

I’m all for idiots on the field, but apparently it’s not all harmless - if you’re an adult, in many jurisdictions you can end up with criminal charges. Unless they drop them, which they might.

Since the plane seemed to be moving under its own power, I bet the swerve right was moreso the van getting sucked towards the engine rather than something the driver chose to do.

Perhaps more importantly, two-stroke engines aren’t so good for the environment, in part because some of the fuel/air mixture shoots out the exhaust before ever undergoing combustion, and in part because there’s oil in the fuel, and burning oil tends to produce all sorts of Ice-Cap Melting gases.

This really just feels like what F1 has been struggling with: The fundamental problem is that Sky wins all the time which makes it boring, just like Merc always wins in F1.

Even if we assume the $200k figure is true (it is probably _much_ less cost to the dealership to replace those wheels/tires), a given dealership would have to be robbed to this extreme once every 5 years.

Meanwhile in Canada:

Great article. On a similar note, some older pools can’t be equipped with electronic timing, because the touchpads shorten the pool by too much and you end up swimming 24.95m instead of 25m per length.

The guy with the hot-mic yesterday was Byron Macdonald, the other commentator. Byron’s pretty awesome (I swam in Ontario, and you encounter Byron and swimmers that swim under Byron frequently), so it’s unfortunate that that “controversy” sprung up at all.

It’d be _really_ hard to pull that off, since you wouldn’t be able to target your time so precisely to make sure you ended up 2 places above or below Le Clos.

The issue is that it’s not really practical to enforce the coaching ban if you don’t also have a technical ban, since teams will immediately come up with technical-sounding codewords for coaching.

Thursday numbers are usually “previews” held later at night.
