Technology Connections!

“Andor” is the best Star Wars series.

I sometimes back into parking spaces that are in front of a glass storefront so I can see that my brake lights are working.

The difference is, they aren’t locked in a hole underground with them.

There are other commodities that you can secure and make sure you are the only one that knows how to get access to them

This sounds like an excellent way to spend the last minutes of your life having your fingernails pulled off.

These advanced pencils are designed by A.I. and use biological carbon foam encasing stacked layers of graphene!

Better not say “primigravida”, they’d completely lose it.

Im pretty sure I said it when I fell off a bike in the woods last time.

And of course, marijuana is still illegal, even though it’s making money for the much less populated state to the north.

Same. I had to put a toner cartridge in it once.

“Stronger than steel”

Recovering machinist here, and I agree. The other thing that annoys me about “StRoNgEr ThAn StEeL” is that there is a wide variety of different types of steel, all with different strength charachteristics. Some types of steel are 5x stronger than other types of steel.

Same thing for Ford’s “Military grade” aluminum. The truck bodies are made out of 5052 and 6061 depending on how it’s shaped. Those are literally the most common grades of aluminum. And that’s what you’d make a truck body out of, but its funny.

No it isnt.

Weird, Ford and Rivian both seem to be able to make an EV pickup truck.

There is a specific growling sound that I hear in movies sometimes that I’m sure I’ve heard in WoW and the original Doom.

Im not a medical professional, but I thought if someone was knocked out for mote than a few minutes there’s a good chance they just wont wake up again?

Nobody in film seems to understand motorcycles. I’m tired of seeing sport bikes rumble like cruisers, Im tired of seeing 4-stroke bikes sounding like two-strokes, and people riding open-piped cruisers jn situations where they need to be quiet. There was that recent attempt at cashing in on Indiana Jones, set in the late 1940’s, and someone is riding a bike with fuel injection, overhead valves, and disc brakes. I’ve seen it too many times where an “old bike” was needed and it’s obvious someone bought a Softail off craigslist and expected that nobody would notice the difference between a ten year old bike and a 70 year old bike.

Billionaires can’t really do anything. They’re useless and barely human. They depend on society to take care of them.

I’ve always wanted to see some movies/television based on Niven’s “Known Space” universe, and not just because I want to see a Pierson’s Puppeteer. There are interesting worlds, one with high gravity that has land poking above it’s atmosphere, one Venus-type planet with a single high region that’s habitable, a desert planet that has its axis 90° to the ecliptic, causing high winds half the year, a system of five worlds orbiting around each other, one of which has no sun and a trillion inhabitants…

But no, let’s go to fucking Tattoine again.

I like that there is a separate, and higher percentage improvement needed for pickup trucks and SUV’s, because Im pretty sure fuel economy standards and the dodging thereof are part of the reason for all the SUV’s and other large vehicles.

It’s mostly because people in the US don’t drink much hot tea. Coffee is more popular here, and dedicated coffee makers are very common.
