As both a certified CAR GUY and an economist-ish, I cannot imagine a headline more designed to drive me, personally, insane. This "flying car" technology is neither new nor novel. It is not practical and would not sell. Let me tell a story of actually useful car tech that never made it to market.

Exam Knight. ⚜️

A knight preparing for the exam the next day. The character is reading a book called fight 101 and there are ghost cats around in the room. Next to the character there's a sword and a shield next to the bed.

A handcrafted 'Doors of Durin' diorama, inspired by The Lord of the Rings, by artist @sergiomodelismo. The scene is built inside a picture frame to create a "living painting" effect. Sculpted putty was used for the rock face and natural elements like rosemary branches for the trees. #art #lotr

I rewatched WandaVision over the past couple days. I think my complaints about the ending and the overall decline in MCU quality afterwards clouded my memory of that show. It is an enjoyable ride and overall a good show even when acknowledging the weaker points.

I wish pokemon champions had a replay function. I'm pretty sure I just won my battle because of a bug. On the other hand, it wouldn't be the first time I ran into an unexpected result because of some ability or mechanic I'm not familiar with. It would be nice to be able to check which it was.

Obviously the closing point about how gamification makes the divide between work and the rest of life slippery is the big important takeaway here, but also, lol, lmao, i simply love to read about the gamer's grotesque urge.

Though I was farming along at a decent clip, I cannot resist the gamer’s grotesque urge to ruin a nice bike ride by minmaxing. Farm for a long enough time and you will quickly realize that the longest part of any farming ride is the walk back to the previous station. If your goal is to maximize the number of points you collect, then reducing that return trip is the most efficient way to increase your points per hour. There are several ways to do this. You can run really, really fast, although this will tire you out very quickly. Alternatively, you can carry a return vehicle with you. Objectively the easiest one to carry with you is going to be a skateboard or electric longboard; it can snap on to the basket of a bike or fit easily into a backpack.

Unfortunately, I have always sucked at skating and every attempt has ended with me eating pavement. The other option, which I should stress is extremely inadvisable, is an electric folding scooter. I found a guy selling an extremely busted Ninebot ES2 on Facebook Marketplace for next to nothing, took it apart and got it working with some solder shrink and a replacement part. I then found the cheapest shoulder sling I could find on AliExpress, allowing me to carry it over my shoulder like a guitar. The workflow was fairly simple: find a cluster, scoot to it, collapse the scooter, ride, uncollapse scooter, ride to the previous dock, rinse and repeat. Because the trips are more frequent, I could fit more in before the point values recalibrated. And when the farming cluster finally did dry up, I would simply ride home.

Writing that's truly suspenseful comes from not being sure how much of a hack the author is. They should be just bad enough that you're worried they're going to screw it up somehow, but good enough that you have hope that they won't. THAT'S an unpredictable story.

There were a lot of weird calls by the refs this game. They went against both teams, but I'll admit they broke in favor of the Eagles more often than not. Even accounting for that, I'm happy with what I saw from the team this week.

something that stands out about this is just how cheap it is for us to have world-leading scientific capacity we spent ~6.75 trillion last year, and the combined budgets for NIH, NSF and NASA are barely more than 1% of that what an incredible waste to lose it all for a drop in the bucket

In normal times, “DOJ insists” the president’s actions are above reproach should be treated with skepticism. In these times, such insistences should be ignored or laughed at.

On a daily basis, I marvel at how many people in putative positions of power are willing to help obliterate American democracy. The US has faced a series of very easy moral tests in the past decade and it’s staggering how often people in once-respected positions have failed.

And my point is that there are plenty of people in the world, like myself, who simply don't know/care enough about car brands to be able to identify the differences that give Subarus character. As such, slapping a Subaru sticker on a Tesla would likely be enough to fool me.

The fact that you know what cars count as luxury sedans puts you quite a bit ahead of me on car brand knowledge.

Depends how knowledgeable a person is about cars. This would likely fool me. The cybertruck is just about the only car I can reliably identify by body shape.
