  1. Engine is still "stock" https://www.allpar.com/news/2017/10/first-stock-hellcat-breaks-into-the-8s-38625 Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk

  3. I'm shocked that people have already forgotten the EV1. It was far ahead of its time and could get like 80 to 90 miles per charge on lead acid batteries. Later models upgraded the battery pack, but would be able to have amazing range if LiIon were available at the time. They were only available in CA and AZ. The ones that weren't crushed were stripped of electronics, VIN, and donated to museums and universities. There's one collecting dust in the basement of my alma mater. GM also build S10 EV's with the same technology, but they weren't crushed like the EV1. Quite a few years ago a guy I went to school with found an S10 EV in a junkyard, poached the EV stuff, and converted a Fiero. Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk
  4. Science doesn't mean anything anymore, why would he trust those links? You could argue that his mentality is no different than any climate change denier. No amount of proof will change his mind, but he watched some YouTube vid that changed his life. Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk
  5. -"Detonating a nuclear device will not dissipate a hurricane." -"But, that's like, your opinion, man. I'm allowed to believe what I want, and I might be right. What do you know about hurricanes anyway..." It's comforting to think that their votes count just as much as mine, and it's a good thing we don't vote on when and where to drip bombs...unless they vote their intellectual equal to office...

  7. Do you even understand the words you type? Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk
  8. Want to talk about how neither of those are tax dollars going directly into their pockets? Didn't we just cover "false equivalency" a few pages ago? Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk
  9. The SS spent $60k so far this year on golf cart rentals at Trump's clubs. Anyone who doesn't this he's using the presidency to make money has their head in the sand. Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk
  10. Funny, just took this at the Dream Cruise about an hour ago. Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk
  11. What's the motive for black on black crime? Is it a product of poverty? If so, does that make it equal to a hate crime? Do motives matter to you or are you trying to claim that all crime is equal, which is why white supremacist hate crimes should be tallied against other crimes not motivated by hate?

  12. Wow, had a busy day at work and wasn't able to check this today and keep up. I don't know where to start, but most everything has been said so I'll only say this: People are judged over the friends that they keep. Your friends are a reflection of you. At this point I wouldn't stand within 10 feet of anyone in this administration for fear of being associated with them. I read a diverse set of news media and I purposely watch Trump's statements live (or replayed) without commentary so that I can be the judge of whether the reporting on his statements is accurate or skewed, and I honestly have no idea how anyone could stand with this guy anymore. Bannon will be fired and they will play it up as ousting the Alt-right from the white house, but he's not the only one. The entire administration is toxic. Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk
  13. I find it absurd that you would express outrage over the leaders of an organization attending a meeting, while turning a blind eye to Bannon's role in the White House. He sure as hell cultivated them from the moment he entered the political ring. He's perpetuated every conspiracy theory written on those blogs, he claimed Obama was a Muslim, he claimed Obama wasn't a US citizen, his rallys were often violent and he would encourage the crowd when doing so, he said all Muslims were bad and they would be deported, he said Mexicans are bad and need to be deported, he ran a campaign based on strong nationalism and aligned his ideals with the alt-right/KKK, yet never denounced them until basically forced to by the press, which made it meaningless IMO (and I believe those groups saw it as meaningless too). He's catered to thus group since day 1, then appointed Bannon as chief strategist. Actions speak louder than words, and Trumps made it clear that his word means nothing.

  14. We were not a country founded on faith, which is why there is separation of church and state. A majority of the founding fathers weren't even Christian. I have an issue with his God comments because he is not a pastor, he is the President. We are a country of many faiths and many beliefs. You can't give a speech claiming to want to bring people of different backgrounds together, then say that all Americans are created by the same God. To me it's a bigoted statement and it's only meant to appeal to his base. Do you honestly believe Trump is a deeply religious man? He's probably used God more in the last year than he has the rest of his life. Evangelicals eat that shit up and look past all his past transgressions because if it.

  15. Yea Richard Spencer was credited in this article too. http://www.columbusalive.com/entertainment/20170208/white-nationalist-from-worthington Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk
  16. The democrats didn't have one sitting in the white house making policy. Trump has cultivated these groups ever since he got into politics and he's done nothing to denounce them until coerced. Not true. Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk
  17. You're calling the minority left obstructionist, but ignoring the behavior of the Republican party during the last few years of Obama? Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk
  18. What is anti-white culture? All I've ever seen is Nazi web sites taking an anti-white slant on every "news" piece, but it's completely made up propaganda that's meant to mobilize their base. Also, I haven't seen anyone else say it, but Trumps entirely too late statement denouncing Nazism was complete BS. Not only was he forced to do it, and it didn't appear genuine, but he added "we're all created by the same God" to the end of it. He wasn't speaking to Americans here, he was talking to his base. What about the people who don't believe in your God Mr. Trump? With all the anti-semitism/anti-muslum rhetoric from the alt-right, why would you feel it necessary to say that after saying we all live under the same laws and all salute the same flag? His base will still take this statement as support, that only people 'like them' are true Americans. Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk
  19. I haven't seen any pictures of protesters carrying weapons or having their hands taped up like boxers on their way to the rally, only the alt-right Nazi's in attendance...can anyone share some here? Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk
  20. It may work reasonably well then. It seemed to help on our wood floors where I used to have to sweep multiple times per week. Now I'm not doing that as often, but also depends on where it goes, since I have one of the random ones. We have cats and their hair quickly gets tangled around the brushes, making them pretty useless. If you have a pet that sometimes poops on the floor, do not use one of these. It will smear it all over your house. Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk
  21. The Roomba's with the camera in top will go in straight lines too. That's at least the 900 series and may have trickled down to lower lines by now. Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk
  22. Honestly, your best bet is to treat it as a club. This model has been done before and they also use it for "maker spaces" all over the country. Those guys have table saws, bands saws, etc. so they must have figured out the insurance thing. They also have to give training on each piece if equipment before you're allowed to use it. And, yeah, this topic come up a lot! Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk
  23. I have a Roomba and my father in law has 2 of them. Do you have pets? Wood floors or carpet? Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk
  24. Wow, that is impressive. The Viper team was only able to run one flying lap, but they got additional sponsors and will be back again this month. They sound confident about breaking into the 6's but who knows how deep. Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk
  25. As a global figure, for reference this is just under the sales figures for the Toyota Camry (660,868 units in 2016, the 10th highest selling vehicle in the world), which would be impressive for the Model 3, if it can actually convert all reservations to sales. But they won't, which is a good thing because they don't have the capacity to fulfill all those orders. That should help keep demand high (if successful) and prices up though.
