"amazing violin player"

BSR says...

Yeah... but, can she play The Devil Went Down to Georgia? If not, she'll never make it on the barroom circuit.

Just because you can go fast, doesn't mean you should

Nebosuke says...

Geez, don't do this crap and put other people's safety at risk.

If you want to go this fast on a closed circuit or a strip of highway with no one else, then go do you.

This 11-Year-Old Racing Prodigy Is Breaking Records

oritteropo says...

She holds the U17 Formula 4 lap record for Okayama International Circuit with a time of 1 minute 32.8 in the under 17 category, despite being too young to actually compete in F4 races (she needs to be 16 to enter).

So, which records is she breaking?

CarMax's answer to the guy's ad for his fiancé's used Honda

Payback says...

Towards the end of the above, Carmax clearly states "the cat is optional".

Still an awesome idea for them. Not bad for what used to be Circuit City.

ChaosEngine said:

Would love to know if he went for it.

"honey I sold your car for $20000!!"

"that's amazing! Let's go out to celebrate... I just need to feed the cat"

"uh, about that......"

Hummingbird Pool Party Number Five!

JustSaying says...

See, that's much better. Mechanical looking creatures with the kind of humming sounds you expect from murder-drones. But they land in water and none get a short circuit so it's apparently not killerrobotbirdie-murdertime.

sally yates hands senator ted cruz his ass

enoch says...

@harlequinn

i have witnessed many of my more right leaning friends on social media ask a very similar question,but ignore that the attorney general is first,and foremost,an agent of the court.

sally yates did nothing illegal.she simply was upholding a lawful injunction passed down from ninth circuit court federal judge william orrick.(who is a republican,for what it is worth).

what yates DID do was ignore an executive order commanding her to challenge the injunction,which she refused and told her subordinates to do the same.which is considered gross insubordination,and the reason she was fired,but she had every right and legal cover to ignore that EO.

the DOJ,and subsequently the attorney general,are not their for the presidents leisure.they are part of the judiciary branch,which is separate from the executive.though every president has replaced the current attorney general with one that most aligns with their politics.

the fact that so many diehard rightwingers see what yates did as anti-patriotic is a stance that i find very disturbing.that somehow by disobeying the president,she crossed some imaginary line,and therefore should be punished for her disobedience.

which she was! she was fired.

but to imply that disobeying an executive order is tantamount to treason,goes against the very ideology of our constitutional republic.the president is not KING.he does not wield absolute power.

and to pretend what yates did as illegal,and treasonous, for disobeying the president.... is fascism 101.

Jim Jefferies tells Piers Morgan to Fuck Off

LiquidDrift says...

I can't stand Trump or pretty much any of his policies, and Morgan is a douche, but it's not technically a Muslim ban. It's dumb and won't make us any safer, but it's not a Muslim ban.

For people who are excited by the 9th circuit court victory, it's temporary. Like it or not he has the authority to stop immigration. Sucks but it's true.

Vote in 2018.

Vicious Cycle

shinyblurry says...

Eccelesiastes 1

1 The words of the Preacher, the son of David, king in Jerusalem.

2 “Vanity of vanities,” says the Preacher;
“Vanity of vanities, all is vanity.”

3 What profit has a man from all his labor
In which he toils under the sun?

4 One generation passes away, and another generation comes;
But the earth abides forever.

5 The sun also rises, and the sun goes down,
And hastens to the place where it arose.

6 The wind goes toward the south,
And turns around to the north;
The wind whirls about continually,
And comes again on its circuit.

7 All the rivers run into the sea,
Yet the sea is not full;
To the place from which the rivers come,
There they return again.

8 All things are full of labor;
Man cannot express it.
The eye is not satisfied with seeing,
Nor the ear filled with hearing.

9 That which has been is what will be,
That which is done is what will be done,
And there is nothing new under the sun.

10 Is there anything of which it may be said,
“See, this is new”?
It has already been in ancient times before us.

11 There is no remembrance of former things,
Nor will there be any remembrance of things that are to come
By those who will come after.

Godless – The Truth Beyond Belief

Shayde says...

Well, no, it's a problem I have with Christians because they say what Jesus says is the truth.

Jesus says, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me."

A Christian says, "See, Jesus said it so it must be true."

A person may then ask, "Er, so why should we trust this Jesus person?"

There follows a fair bit of circuitous reasoning from the Christian that usually ends with the assertion, "Because Jesus said so."

And there you stand along side the Muslim telling us that "Mohammed is the way - because Mohammed and I say so."

And along side the member of the Peoples Temple who says "Jim Jones is the way - because Jim Jones and I say so."

And you all sound just as bat-shit crazy.

shinyblurry said:

You have to realize, this isn't a problem you are having with Christians. This is a problem that you're having with Jesus Christ. He is the one who made the claim to exclusivity:

Adam Savage's Zorg ZF-1 Prop Replica!

Samantha Bee on Orlando - Again? Again.

Mordhaus says...

It doesn't work like that. What you end up with is something akin to Australia's gun laws, which 'technically' still allow certain people to own guns, realistically most won't or can't

Category A: Rimfire rifles (not semi-automatic), circuit loaded firearms. shotguns (not pump-action or semi-automatic), air rifles including semi automatic, and paintball gun. A "Genuine Reason" must be provided for a Category A firearm. [AKA, you have to prove you have a reason to own these weapons. Newsflash, the majority of police will automatically deny you. Oh yeah, for a PAINTBALL gun as well.]

Category B: Centrefire rifles including bolt action, pump action, circuit loaded, and lever action (not semi-automatic), muzzleloading firearms made after 1 January 1901. [Same as Cat A, must have a 'genuine reason' to own one, be registered, have a fee, ton of other limitations, so basically hard to own]

Category C: Pump-action or self-loading shotguns having a magazine capacity of 5 or fewer rounds and semi automatic rimfire rifles. [Only Primary producers, farm workers, firearm dealers, firearm safety officers, collectors and clay target shooters can own functional Category C firearms.]

Category D: Self-loading centrefire rifles, pump-action or self-loading shotguns have a magazine capacity of more than 5 rounds. [Functional Category D firearms are restricted to government agencies, occupational shooters and primary producers in some states. Collectors may own deactivated Category D firearms.]

Category H: Handguns including air pistols and deactivated handguns. [This class is available to target shooters and certain security guards whose job requires possession of a firearm. To be eligible for a Category H firearm, a target shooter must serve a probationary period of 6 months using club handguns, after which they may apply for a permit. A minimum number of matches yearly to retain each category of handgun and be a paid-up member of an approved pistol club. Target shooters are limited to handguns of .38 or 9mm calibre or less and magazines may hold a maximum of 10 rounds. Participants in certain "approved" pistol competitions may acquire handguns up to .45", currently Single Action Shooting and Metallic Silhouette. IPSC shooting is approved for 9mm/.38/.357 sig, handguns that meet the IPSC rules, larger calibres such as .45 were approved for IPSC handgun shooting contests in Australia in 2014. Barrels must be at least 100mm (3.94") long for revolvers, and 120mm (4.72") for semi-automatic pistols unless the pistols are clearly ISSF target pistols; magazines are restricted to 10 rounds.]

Category R/E: Restricted weapons, such as machine guns, rocket launchers, full automatic self loading rifles, flame-throwers, anti-tank guns, howitzers and other artillery weapons [Obviously this class is right out...]

You can own some muzzleloading weapons without restrictions, although percussion cap pistols are restricted. In addition to these minor rules, all guns must be secured in a safe or other similar location, all must be fully registered so that the government knows the location of every single weapon/owner, and you can't sell them to another person, only to a dealer or the law to be destroyed.

After a few years of de-fanging and getting the citizens used to not having weapons, the Australian government and law enforcement routinely quietly hold gun buybacks to persuade more people to give up their weapons. They also do amnesty turn ins now and then.

So, that is the AMAZING suite of laws Australia put in place to stop mass shootings. Forgive me if, when combined, those type of laws would basically neuter the 2nd amendment. We've already neutered the 1st with 'hate speech' and the ability to sue over getting your feelings hurt. The 4th has been steadily under attack, because GOOD citizens shouldn't mind if the government rummages through everything you own or do. We haven't messed with the 5th amendment too much, so we could look at that next, maybe allow torture of everyone for confessions.

I'm getting tired of listing points, so let me just say this. I am incredibly sorry that people died, they shouldn't have and it is an utter shame. However, we are already fighting on a daily basis to keep a facsimile of the rights that were fought for when we built this country. Watering them down further only helps our government tighten the bonds of enslavement upon us. I can't agree with that.

kir_mokum said:

no single regulation is going to stop the shootings but a collection of regulations/laws/policies can definitely help and the right collection of regulations/laws/policies could very well stop these shootings. doing nothing or repealing regulations/laws/policies is clearly not working and those policy makers should have been able to figure that out by the time the thought had finished running through their minds.

World Drone Prix-Dubai

Ghostly says...

Wow, this looks so much cooler than the Drone Racing League, at least in terms of the video quality and sense of speed. DRL is arguably more impressive with their indoor high risk circuits though.

Looking forward to seeing more of both!

Charging a cell phone on the railroad?

Mordhaus says...

Honestly, I don't know. But the description of the system leads me to believe it might trigger something, since closing the circuit to get the charge is basically what the train's axle setup does.

SFOGuy said:

Oh man, thank you.
So, train safety scheduling signals.
Sudden perverse thought; shorting or charting across the rails doesn't confound that system does it?
Sorry, not an EE...
