Yeah, riding through an intersection like that as a passenger would be terrifying.

What would be really cool about a totally autonomous control like the one above would be that you could dynamically change the lanes in a computer somewhere and the cars would instantly know it and adjust accordingly. Congestion eastbound? Well now that 8 lane highway has 6 eastbound lanes and...

I think people talking about "fighting for your right to self drive" just lack imagination. I'm sure back in Henry Ford's day there were plenty of old coots posting on internet message boards about how cars would never replace horses and they would never ride in one of those death contraptions...

I know a guy who was a Mormon missionary in Brazil and he said that they told him that if you run from the police, they can and will shoot you, but if you don't run from them, they still might shoot you.

Funny, I had some that looked *exactly* like those including color but with a different brand name. I think factories in China just crank that shit out and put random brand names on them. They were pretty good but they only last 3-4 hours on a charge. Fine if you just want to wear them while...

Denver supposedly offered him somewhere in the neighborhood of $6M and he wouldn't take it. Like I said, the only way it would happen is if a team without a viable backup lost their QB for the season and were desperate and frankly it would probably still be a mistake.

I really think that the Kaep "dead arm" thing is just a smoke screen. He doesn't want to be on the 49ers and they don't want him there but he doesn't want to take a pay cut to go to another team and no team will pay his salary and the 49ers aren't willing to just let him walk since they have to...

Yeah, he had some ridiculously terrible throws. I also forgot to mention that we are going to have a hard time getting pressure on the QB until Aaron Lynch gets back from suspension. Ahmad Brooks can get after the QB sometimes but he is no Lynch.

I haven't been keeping up with this thread but as a 49ers fan I was cautiously optimistic after the preseason game vs. the Texans. Not for this year, but I feel like we may have improved in some key areas vs. last year which is a sign that the rebuild has a chance. The defense actually looked...

This one takes forever but it is seriously god tier lasagna. So fucking good. Lasagna Recipe

The US is just really fucking big and sparsely populated outside of certain areas. Places that got internet/phones later actually had the advantage because they probably laid fiber the first time around instead of copper wires that are now nearly obsolete. Add to that the fact that we gave...

I powered through episodes 1-5 this week and I am surprised that people here don't like it. I had no problem at all with the pacing but maybe it's better if you don't have to wait a week between episodes. I love Turturro's character and while I found Naz's being a hard-ass in prison a bit far...

Hah! I appreciate you quoting that just for the reminder that I was once referred to by one delusional everquest nerd as a "formal leader" of the warrior community and mentioned in the same sentence with Furor. That has to be the peak of my Everquest career and I didn't even remember it. I...

Just think of it as something you did to reduce complaining in the house and not an actual light fixture.

My wife can't take a punch. Always crying and screaming about how her teeth are lose at even just a minor backhand. What a pussy.

I always like GnR's cover of Live and Let Die.

I have never exactly understood what this category is but right now anybody that makes a real country album gets thrown in here so I guess that makes me a fan. If I met somebody that could sing "When You Say Nothing at All" like Allison Krauss I would marry them no questions asked. Lately I...

There are a few Guns and Roses songs I can get on board with. The rest of the hair bands can fuck off. I do think that the video for "Jump" by Van Halen is the gayest thing that has ever been produced including hardcore gay sex so that is an achievement.

To be fair, several dudes in the marriage/divorce thread could have saved themselves a lot of misery by following Khane's method of finding something wrong with everyone he dates and dumping them as soon as it starts to look remotely serious.

I'm just grateful that "Smells Like Teen Spirit" came out my freshman year in HS because my friends that are even a couple years older than me still like Motley Crue/Def Leppard/Van Halen bullshit and I give Kurt credit for saving me from that grim fate.

I love Soundgarden and I like a fair number of Alice in Chains and Pearl Jam songs. I also have a couple songs in my shuffle by Seven Marry Three, the grunge band that almost made it big but they weren't from Seattle. I also liked Audioslave, at least their first album. Chris Cornell is...

You say Nirvana is overrated to show how cool and edgy you are. Been this way for years because they were the most popular grunge band. Smells Like Teen Spirit instantly transports me back to being a freshman in high school watching MTV after school with my finger on the remote in case the...

I love the touchscreen order gizmo at the Subway drive thru. The self check-out at the grocery store works great as well if you don't suck at using it (most people do).

I logged into my old EQ email to see if I got the email and I did but it also brought it to my attention that this board has sent me an email or two...

Do you have some reason to believe that Phelps did this or is this just a "There could be a way in which he could have possibly cheated so therefore he is a cheater"?

Proof that martial arts is bullshit.

People didn't think Mark Spitz 7 golds would ever be equaled at one point and Phelps crushed the fuck out of that so probably someday somebody else will do it but that is a crazy number.

Not many people write a better pop song than Taylor. She's 26 and has been churning out one hit after another for 10 years now. Like her music or not, you have to admit that she is a fucking money printing machine and the fact that there are an army of paparazzi/TMZ shitbags following her 24/7...

This could definitely be true. I still visit a couple other communities that go back as far as this one but they have about 10 posters each now.

Every time I see a story about Kanye and Kim I think they are trying so hard to be Jay-Z and Beyonce but they are just way too fucking trashy to pull it off. Man I can't believe I am posting in this thread.

Soldatna was where we fished the second day. I have to admit when we got there and I saw all the people I was like "I flew 2000 miles for this?" but after we were there for a while I really enjoyed it. We sort of made friends with the people around us including one old guy that lived in AK and...

I think you are right about what needs to be done. It's more dehydrated than really cooked. Mingua Beef Jerky is perfect IMO.

I love the Kingdom Rush tower defense games but I have played them all to death and every other tower defense game I download is crap. Anybody know of another good TD game?

I actually get a free deer tag every year and I could fill it from my front steps a lot of days but I generally don't bother just because I have an abundance of beef and it tastes a lot better than venison. The only thing that could get me to shoot a deer is if I can figure out how to make good...

I went up to alaska a week and a half a go and spent 3 days fishing. Went out on a boat for halibut and didn't catch any big ones but we limited out on little guys. After that we spent 2 days fishing for salmon in the Kenai river afterwards and although it was way too crowded I had never caught...

I suppose so. Anyway, arguing about it is an even bigger waste of time than doing it so I am going to get on with my life now.

I don't think doing that is going to make them more likely to sell to us. If anything it makes them more likely to just hit delete on the DB and sit on the domain out of spite. It also makes us look like children, but that is obviously not an inaccurate description so I guess that doesn't...
