If your average slashdot user had worked in Bell labs in 1947 they'd be bitching about how that lump of Germanium barely amplifies anything compared to the current 6SN7 vacuum tube.

Perhaps NASA would be more competitive if their budget was on par with SpaceX.

Most definitely. He’s been saying Tesla will have fully autonomous driving for years now. He also said the cyber truck would be able to float but they need a special setting just for going through a car wash. https://www.tesla.com/ownersma...

The show had an episode about a race of half black half white people fighting another group with their half colors mirrored. If that isn't shoving race relations in your face then I don't know what is.

Internal Boeing emails regarding the 737 Max https://www.theguardian.com/bu...
