You're my goddamned hero for that post. I can't remember when I last heard my frustrations so clearly enunciated. Bravo sir.

And will I be able to buy that vehicle for $40,000, put almost 200,000 miles on it, carry five occupants, and still drive on the highway at 75 miles per hour?
Please don't move the goalposts - he answered your original concern fairly succinctly. If he's anything like most nerds I know he won't appreciate having to puff and run to keep up!
Global humanity fucked up when we let Isreal have nuclear weapons and shit all over the NPT.
I'm no Zionist but if there's one country in the world that needs the bomb it's Israel. They've had the technology for years and have never (to my knowledge) threatened their use. If I was in their position I'd sure as Hell want a deterrent from the ever-present threat of the crazed Muslims and their open hatred of the Jewish people.
I'm not saying they're saints or that they should be free from criticism, just that I believe that them maintaining nuclear strike capabilities does make a certain amount of sense.
In all the years, this is probably the most ridiculous article I've read on
We do discuss a wide variety of topics here and whilst I agree this isn't particularly technical, nuclear weapons, the risks of proliferation and the behaviour of state-level actors seeking to arm themselves thus are very much topics of interest to myself and many of my fellow nerds here on the 'dot.
I empathise with your frustration, however I would point out that there are often days when there's absolutely nothing on the front page that I find interesting enough to click. Best to just sigh and move on.
Yeah, I'm pretty sure if one wants to play in the Play Store (ghastly name) one needs to accept impregnation by the Gmind. Naturally the Play Store content was compelling enough for myself because I merrily signed my digital soul over to Google without a second thought.
Until now. Hmph.
Agree. A race track up Pike's Peak, once paved, is exactly the same as the 1,000 other race track's up Mountain's like Pike's Peak. The track up Mount Kilimanjaro is impressive. So is the one up Mount Everest. Hopefully, they won't pave those tracks or they'll be as dumbed down and easy as the Pike's Peak hill climb. *sigh* I'm gonna go watch some NASCAR and pine for the gool ol' days.
Dude, you missed a couple!

Gotta be consistent!
I'm not really into motorsport so that vid was new to me. I watched all eight and a half minutes of his run, absolutely transfixed. The level these drivers operate at is simply stunning to observe, thank you for the link.
Just think, you'd be in charge of the fastest race car on the planet if it could be powered by arrogance!
You deserve kudos for recognising it as a mistake. Sadly this puts you in a select group of English-speaking nations the world over.
Sorry, you're quite right, I really meant to say "I have to agree with you, it's a unique film alright". Didn't mean to put words in your mouth there good Sir.
Dune's quite a unique film.
Not trying to stir trouble or take sides but I have to agree with you. I actually really liked the voiceovers! I know I'll be laughed off
Fight Club springs to mind, but it's been a while so I may have misremembered.

No, no, those are Harkonnen soldiers, yes definitely Harkonnen, nothing to see here, please move along..
Take your trolling elsewhere
