  1. Great timing on that refund, they can put it towards upgrading to a 10XX card
  2. Well, easy to do when you're a wee bit crazy IRL already
  3. why is twitch streaming the gop convention
  4. Roll it out to the curb and let the city inherit the problem
  5. Whereas about 1 person a day dies from a rifle, about 10 drown in pools. Irresponsible pool owners are a much larger concern.
  6. Bought the cheapest Black & Decker cordless to do my mom's small yard 2 years ago. Like others mentioned, it has been flawless other than It's supposed to have an auto-feed but I have to manually pull the string out. No big deal, would rather it the auto-feed not work at all than work wrongly.
  7. Yes. Touch controls and touch panels are the most stupid things put in cars in recent years. A physical, tactile button can be pressed without looking at it, a touch usually not.
  8. Problem with background checks: The current system isn't even enforced fully. A universal system is de-facto registration.
  9. This. So much this. I read some article/blog post a while back from some competent programmer that looked at a start-up's "revolutionary AI" (self-claimed) that ended up being a mess of 150 or so nested if-then statements.
  10. Hope they like hemorrhoids
  11. That's good that in 1789 they wrote into the Constitution the process of being amended so that it can change as the times change. What? It would never be ratified? Well tough shit. "Shall not be infringed" is pretty easy to comprehend.

    GoT

    You're applying logic to a show that gave it up a while ago.
  13. This. Batteries have gotten so much better that cordless ones have quite a bit of power and plenty of charge. Pretty sure I'll be getting a battery powered mower when needed as well. Granted my yard is on the small side.
  14. Steve Forbes VP: Mike Rowe Find myself agreeing with almost everything Forbes writes in the editor's article each issue. Sticks to what the President can actually do also when writing about presidential policy, unlike many other journalists and commentators. Rowe would be great for VP. VP is barely a political office (barring succession rules) so lack of political experience doesn't matter so much (could be what's needed). VP acts more as a spokesperson and mediator, and can be a bridge between government and public. Rowe would be great for injecting his mindset into the public eye and turning the country, culture back to what gave it so much strength - partially providing for you country, not seeking what the country can provide for you. Could probably think of a better VP but whatever, it's a fantasy anyway.
  15. Reaching orbit is going sideways just as much or more as it is going up. And cross winds. If they killed all horizontal movement higher up, they would need to be correcting random crosswinds. Keeping the horizontal velocity in one direction means only (mostly) correcting in one direction.
  16. It's a 1.6L turbocharged so I don't think 400hp is a stretch.
  17. Are you including the weight set or just selling the barbell?
  18. Thinking Kasich but it will be slim. No idea about the Dems, probably be pretty close there too.

    New Bugatti

    Can't unsee the turtle.
  20. Anything 1080p and 60hz will be fine. Won't be pushing anything more than that, XBOX One doesn't even come close. Get an IPS panel for best picture and color quality. http://www.logicalincrements.com/monitors
  21. The officer/agent was also stepping into the path of a speeding vehicle
  22. Not sure if he was reaching and got shot, or if he got shot and then reached and got shot some more.

    F-ing Tinder

    Isn't that exactly the point of Tinder
  24. Did he get to watch Wrestlemania though? I haven't watched the series.
