Antifa heroically beat up a couple of fascists near a white supremacy rally in Philly last winter. The only small mistake they made was the fact that the people they beat up weren't at the white supremacist rally and were Hispanic Marines on assignment. But other than that, yeah, they beat them up.

Nearly all cars are designed nowadays so the engine drops under the car. So this problem was solved long ago.

The "story" you're referring to was leaked by Tesla itself. It was nothing more than marketing propaganda. The machine did not break. It just reached the end of its testing limit and the car didn't break. Tesla also made other very misleading claims are that time. They claimed that their car scored a 5.4 on a scale that goes to 5. They were smacked down by the NHTSA and had to retract the claim. http://abcnews.go.com/Technolo...

>Get the electric airplane engine working. Let someone else worry about storing the electricity to power it. They've had electric motors for more than a century. The motors were never the technical hurdle. That's like saying "Pack your things for a camping trip on Pluto. We'll let someone else worry about how to get there"

Except this simply did not happen. Ford offered a safety package in the 1950s but consumers weren't too interested in it. By the 1960s the NHTSA implemented laws that all cars sold in the US had to follow. The Japanese carmakers really entered the scene much later, in the mid/late 1970s. They gained popularity not because of their superior safety features but rather their lower price. This was made possible by the exchange rate of the Japanese Yen to the US dollar and currencies in Western Europe.

I prefer the Nexus 7's that look like Pris. But I guess we'll have to wait for the basic pleasure model.

It was launched on top of a rocket that brought it up to Mach 20. That isn't anything new or exciting. They lost contact with this aircraft and it's presumed to have crashed. When you're thousands of miles over the Pacific Ocean and your vehicle breaks, a "splashdown" is not difficult at all. In fact it's about the only thing you're going to do! Also, I'm not sure why people are getting excited about this hypersonic glider that has a 100% failure rate. The Space Shuttle was a hypersonic glider that successfully landed over 130 times.

It isn't really that impressive that they got something to go Mach 20, considering that they launched it from a tried and true rocket. I could've put a cinderblock atop that rocket (a decommissioned Peacekeeper ICBM) and it would've went Mach 20.

The EV-1 wouldn't have gone anywhere. It was very expensive for GM to make and would have been sold in a time when you could get gas for under $1 a gallon.

Salt seems to be able to get through that protective layer. Aluminum corrodes very quickly in in a salt environment. In fact, you cannot salt airport runways for this reason.

You know what I like best about that satellite? The creamy white filling.

By that same logic, you could say that there's nothing cool about crosses, even for Christians (it's a sacred symbol, after all). Yet many people are proud to display their sacred symbol.

Whoa, you're right about that! We need to ban wooden chairs immediately. I'd glad that someone is thinking about the children. Thank you for your patriotism, citizen.

That's actually a bit misleading. Sure, Microsoft has been selling operating systems and office productivity products for more than 25 years. But Windows 7 and Office 2010 haven't been out for that long, so you can't imply that Microsoft isn't introducing new products. They have a couple of really popular brands and they're going to continue leveraging those names as long as they can.
