  • So just put a 23 million square meter lens near the ground to focus it onto a smaller solar panel. Do I have to do ALL the thinking around here?

    (/s because that lens would be so big)

  • I just think it took capitalism this long to naturally break its shackles.

  • New-Vehicle Quality Study: Drivers Are Not Happy With Their Cars' Screens; Cupholders are the biggest single contributor to the year-over-year improvement in initial quality.

    Jump

  • I’ve talked for years about something I call the Cupholder Quotient. Number of cupholders divided by number of people seated comfortably in a car. Greater than one is good. It’s an off the cuff measurement of a car’s design quality and it tends to be pretty accurate. The more cups a car is designed to support per passenger, the more likely the designers were empathically considering how the vehicle might be used from the passengers’ perspective.

  • Stede Bonnet, Gentleman Pirate. The HBO show Our Flag Means Death was a highly fictionalized accounting of his story, but the general outline is right: wealthy landowner gets tired/bored of life with his family and buys a ship to go become a pirate. He is, understandably, terrible at it, and runs into Actual Goddamned Blackbeard, who pretty much just steals his lunch money then and there, but after a time decides to help a brother out and actually teaches Stede to be a not completely shit pirate. Neither one lasts much longer before getting caught and executed, but what a bizarre and hilarious journey.

  • Disjointed US Intelligence Systems Led to Deadly Iran School Strike: Report

    Jump

  • I think it’s important to at least begin with a minimally presumptive stance to avoid engaging in false rhetoric. That it was an accidental war crime is still utterly heinous. We can express doubt about it being an accident, but we should examine it from the “best case” angle first before tackling that separately.

  • No mention in the article of this exact thing being done BY the Republicans in the past.

  • I saw the photo first before I read the parent comment and was mightily confused at why there were Weird Al hairstyling videos. The priming effect at work.

  • US Official Pitches Greenland Annexation as a Way to Save Red Lobster’s Endless Shrimp

  • Fuck all of this noise, but if it was down to Greenland or the bottomless Cheddar Bay Biscuits, I might start putting on my invadin’ boots.

    Edit: To be perfectly clear, I was joking. Fuck this administration and fuck imperialism.

  • Raising taxes on the superrich is popular with voters. So why is it so hard to get done?

  • A trillion ants want the human picnic food but the humans have bug spray, ant traps, and a vicious hatred for ants.

    Why aren’t the ants getting to enjoy the picnic food?
