I’d actually like to Kristen’s actual thoughts here.

“protein leather, mushroom leather, jellyfish material”

Japanese haven’t figured out how to eat it.

What a shitpost. Companies are finally acknowledging they don’t need to kill millions of animals to sell a vehicle, they should be getting all the support. Leather is a garbage material as it is, so they should be applauded for using better materials regardless.

Tom,

I know folks have asked before, but is there anyway you could do a quick article letting us know what some of these guys bought? Even a quick ‘Summary Article’ with like 10 people in it would super fun I think. “Tim with the 20k/3 Dogs Bought a Miata because he hated two of the dogs” or “Bernice with the 9 kids…

VR isn’t failing because of bad marketing or companies handling it wrong. Its failing because the tech isn’t there yet. People expect something too advanced. Current technology can’t do VR justice because it only tackles sight and sound, power requirements force players to remain stationary, and there is no tactile…

The transmission consists of an horizontal input shaft with a bevel gear meshing with two output bevel gears at the bottom of the rotor shafts, slightly canted. Only way they’ll get out of sync is if you strip or jump gear teeth.

I work for Kaman and these have started to roll out of production in Connecticut (they start down in Florida) one the last couple of months. The customers are all commercial, with loggers, forestry services, and construction. The Marines/Army would love to buy the unmanned version that was trailed in Afghanistan for…

Seeing the rotors in action, the ‘hundred hand slap’ jumped immediately to mind...

Actually I just googled it (hoodafigerred...?)

They apply cyclic to the rotor assemblies themselves, effectively turning the ends of the helicopter in different directions. On a tandem ‘copter, the rotors would cyclic to opposite sides. I’m guessing on this Kaman, one tilts forward while the other tilts backwards. Cool.

That’s on you, dogface. Next time get born into a privileged family, marry the daughter of a grifting megalomaniac billionaire, and get put in charge of a military operation!

I hate that front end.
Why not put the 2017 Model S front fascia instead?

Buzzword Bingo? Or word vomit?

Argument from fallacy. You can’t refute his entire point just because he appeals to authority slightly.

And it’s a completely valid appeal as well. If you’re going to try to go toe to toe with an institution that has an actual news desk with the resources to vet articles according to industry accepted standards that have been honed both in classrooms and practice for a century or more...you best come correct.

I guess a lot of people can’t distinguish between professional journalists and “blogger journalists” nowadays. Journalists aren’t right all the time but if they’re worth their salt, you can be sure they’ll do their damn best to make sure what they’re reporting is correct. Heck, I used to work for a business newspaper…

Jesus, if you’re going to quote me, at least quote correctly, otherwise you’re using the logical fallacy known as a ‘straw man’. The fact that you have to resort to literally changing what I said when anyone can verify by scrolling up and seeing what I put shows how weak an argument you have.

Uhh... no it’s not. Perhaps you should read up on logical fallacies and how they’re implemented before reply failing.

Appeal to authority is only a fallacy when it concerns a topic that authority should know nothing about but appeals to them because they’re well known in some other area. That’s like claiming to not listen to the medical advice of someone who won “America’s Best Doctor” 39 times because the organization that awards…

I've followed the advice of so many articles like this that my resume is now just a blank sheet of paper with my name at the top.
