  1. 2nd hand Taycan. Very tempted.
  2. In other news, water is wet.
  3. Speaking of people who don't understand....
  4. The US will also be a laughing stock internationally. Biden repaired that somewhat after Trump's first term, but Trumps "strongman" act just makes him look ridiculous.
  5. If olof said that (which I doubt - but quote the post if you can, I'll wait), its still a shit-tonne more accurate than anything you've said in the last few years.
  6. https://weather.com/storms/hurricane/news/2024-06-11-atlantic-hurricane-season-first-storm-wait-meaning
  7. There is so much in your post that really just speaks to the bias of the MSM that you consume. The one point I'd push on is the quote above - you should ask yourself why you think that is, given that the GOP would fall over themselves to prosecute if they had a single decent iota of proof, or evidence of wrongdoing
  8. only because I think it would be interesting to see how mad it made trump, and that I don't know how having the president in a prison would even work.
  9. Could Biden pardon him? Or does that not apply for state level convictions? Would be pretty funny to see the rage generated if Biden got all magnanimous about it, or pardoned him for all counts but one - still a felon, just a minor one.
  10. That's pretty cool. It's amazing to think that we are still realistically in very early betas of all this tech. I look forward to seeing how good it will all get in the next couple decades.
  11. Why do politicians who want child marriage to continue always seem to look something like this?!
  12. I heard this on the radio. "Escape Captors?!" though? That has a ring of "the dog ate my homework" about it.
  13. Plus NONE of the things he's said actually contest that masks, even just cloth ones, are effective at reducing transmission rates. Feels like this one is another political animal trying to distort actual facts.
  14. Nah it be easy. I saw a documentary about it called "Maverick"
  15. Absolutely mind blown by some of the coverage around the stabbing in Australia recently with online commenters from the US trying to turn this into a reason why Australia should relax its gun laws when it's the exact opposite. (Man with knife attacked a bunch of people, killing 6. Australian police woman shot and killed him) https://edition.cnn.com/2024/04/15/australia/australia-sydney-mall-attacker-targeted-women-victims-intl-hnk/index.html
  16. Probably hoping the US will step in and do it for them.
  17. But better I'd never use parcel force by choice now. DPD seems to be the reliable option where I live.
  18. There's a lair? Damn i never wanted to be a moderator before but NOW i do!! Hollowed out volcano?
  19. Every time a GOP rep retires, they seem to suddenly see sense. What are they doing it for - performance art?!
  20. Scarlett Johanssen nailed her to the wall in the post SOTU sendup. Very well done indeed.
  21. Fixed it for you. Just about any motorbike you can think of can run sub 12. Some very cheap ones can run sub 10. Car drivers usually can't really conceive just how fast bikes are. Incidentally M4s and M5s can run sub 12 as well - i wouldn't group them in the rare/very expensive category - not cheap though, sure.
  22. To paraphrase Monty python, that just proves it must be true!
