  • The 90s smelled like sex and candy, but the smell was actually vintage clothes from the 70s and leaded-gas fumes.

  • By 2028 "alcoholic idiot" will be the only condition still protected by the ADA.

  • Red and green is the way to go. You're great at christmas, you can draw 2/3rds of the bell peppers, and (I presume) you get a discount on baby back, baby back ribs.

  • My brain refuses to remember that they there are any utility keys below the enter on a US keyboard. The right pinky moves over and up, never down. I also never hit the spacebar with my right hand.

    I never formally learned to type, I just picked it up because my hands have been glued to keyboards since the 80s.

  • Using their tools always empowers them.

  • Little known fact: cherenkov radiation is only green when it's making you a hulk. Keep that dog's tail wagging!

  • Quick, someone call Stevie Wonder and Paul McCartney!

    1. Fisher space pen

    I keep one at my desk and have one in my pocket (most of the time).

  • Back in 2001 I slept with the radio on and was on the US west coast. So I literally woke up September 11th to live breaking news that life would never be the same.

    I woke up just in time to turn on the TV and see the 2nd tower get hit.

  • That's the best poem about a 4-legged chicken that I've ever read.

  • I've been procrastinating for weeks about setting up a dev environment to help contribute to the codebase, but I didn't procrastinate at all in preordering a Core-2. My Pebble Time might be the last piece of consumer tech that I was both excited for and a satisfied customer of.

  • That article is light on details. Trying to push 1000kW into an 800V drive train (current state of the art) is going to generate a LOT of heat. Is BYD going to increase the drivetrain voltage in order to bring required amperage down (and heat gen with it)? A lot of car makers haven't even made it to 800 yet.

    My car could charge in well under 15 minutes if any charger in my area could make it to the advertised 350kW. My high water mark so far (after 3 months) is 185kW. Usually its closer to 80.

  • I said I'm sorry. But if you're going to let your T-Rex out at night you should at least put a reflective collar on it.

  • You'll never make me break up with beans!

  • She's a real go-getter, that one.

  • I've been hearing good things about Nicole17

  • You're just mad we all have a girlfriend.
