It barely seems like they are even interested in cars anymore, everything felt overrehearsed and written, even the little quippy jokes to each other felt like they were done multiple time for extra takes.
Im not sure what exactly made TopGear so special, but it seem to me that whatever it was has been lost. maybe the guys are just too old or too rich to put in the effort they used to.
Dont go around the carolinas saying something like that! You are likely thinking of Memphis style barbecue sauce, which is often katchup based, where the carolinas use a vinegar based sauce.[1]
I'm not sure if i would call 2 cups of vinegar and some seasoning[2] ketchup

you are policing what people are allowed to laugh at, no one claimed it wasnt fucked up, but that doesnt mean they cant laugh, laughter is one of many ways to cope with trauma.
you are either being intellectually dishonest by trying to reframe my argument incorrectly, or you didnt understand it in the first place
maybe you should take a look at this [1]

I would add Exploration. Getting into space has never been cheaper or safer, and there is vast opportunity in space for everything imaginable, resources, scientific knowledge, new discoveries, new challenges, etc. We dont seem to be satisfied as a race with robots doing our exploration for us up til now, i dont see why that would change in the future. Humans want other humans to be on the surface of these planets making discoveries, not some robot slowly rolling around a desert taking dirt samples for a decade.
what do you think about the argument that by removing yourself from the market of meat entirely, you do nothing to promote better lives for livestock.
By abstaining from meat, you do nothing to push the meat industry towards more sustainable and compassionate treatment of animals. You, being someone who is conscious of these abuses are in a position to push for change, but instead you remove yourself from the market entirely.
Ultimately, isnt refusing to vote with your wallet worse than voting for compassionate and sustainable production of livestock?
Wouldnt eating lab grown meat do more to end the suffering of these animals than not eating meat at all? since it would push an entire industry toward your preference of eating only that which was produced to your standards.
would the entire population of vegetarians and vegans combined buying only the most sustainable and compassionately raised meats be enough to effect the processes of major producers? Would this be a greater good than not eating meat at all? of course, this likely doesnt effect the decision on a personal level, but at scale does veganism help or hurt the progress towards more sustainably and compassionately raised livestock? (though of course if that scale were to include everyone, it would be no longer an issue i suppose)
of course this moreso assumes your overall goal is to reduce the suffering of these animals, or the suffering of all things as much as you possibly can- if your goal is to instead reduce the amount of suffering you directly cause, then this argument is meaningless.
I'm honestly asking this, as its the only argument that i have found that sounds reasonable against becoming vegan, im not really trying to start a debate, i dont really have more to say than this, but its an argument that stuck with me the first time i read it and i very rarely have a chance to have a level headed discussion about such a topic (reddit isnt really the place for level headed discussion, and i am not aware of a nutrition or dietary equivalent to hackernews)
medical costs are very high in the US, and these are the patients who need the most care and the most treatments. I would expect the cost for medicare (a program that is legally disallowed from negotiating prices with their suppliers, and which covers only people aged 65 or over) to be quite high, and actually im surprised its that low.
8600 hours of 4k video at 60fps (i would say this is lower quality then the human eye) is 2.657 petabytes.
Thats not including the sense of touch or smell, which i am sure are comparable in the amount of data processed by a human.
We're looking at 5+ petabytes of data that a human has to learn from by age 3 - Whats wrong with taking petabytes of data in order to learn meaningful things?
in your murder example, you would still need to be arrested by a physical person in a police uniform, you would have some interaction with an agent of the state.
when you get a ticket in the mail, who is your accuser? Whose name is on the ticket? what is their badge number? how do i lodge a complaint against this officer? Who is expected to show up in court to prosecute this case?
When i get mailed a ticket from a corporation, who is expected to show up in court to be my 'accuser'?
the 12.9 inch is the most expensive, but doesnt seem to have the best specs?
Do i need an A9x or will an A9 suffice?
Why does the 9.7 inch pro come in rose gold but not the 12 inch?
the two 9.7 inch tablets are different sizes, how will i know which case to buy or if this ipad will fit into my current case?
do i need a fully laminated display and antireflective coating? because the 9.7 inch ipad does not have these things but all other models do.
Which one will work with my existing data plan? I see that the 9.7 inch pro comes with an embedded sim, does that mean i cant replace it with my own sim? They also all seem to support different LTE bands, am i expected to know which LTE bands my provider uses before i purchase an ipad?
Just my thoughts after looking at this page for two minutes.
Is this a joke?
The discussion around how to humanely deal with drug addiction has been completely shut down by the right wing. they have made it a literal WAR against drug users.
Rural america dug its grave by pushing for the drug war for decades, and now that white americans are having a drug problem its finally time to step back and look at this issue more seriously?
And you think its the cities that lack empathy? How disconnected from reality can you be?
I dont think youre being downvoted because people disagree, you are being downvoted for making extreme claims and not supporting any of it.
Its almost as if over prescribing medication to an entire country has negative outcomes.
in other words, a restaurant owner isnt going to hire new employees unless hes got more customers, it doesnt matter how much 'investment' you give them, what creates job is demand.
Jiggy-jabberjaw vitamin idol and primal rages
When bible page verse tidal waves begun (Water won)
I wrote the book that shook America to splinters
In a winter wasteland icicle-bound barren township
Call Baron Münchhausen and proud gimps to clinch this chemical war pig
Delinquent sinking like a paper tugboat well beneath your holidays
Beached on a red tide infested shore corroding eastern seaboard beauty
I'm a jigsaw slab, but all the pig saw was dirt bag
>Tesla has a problem: It has to achieve scale before that moment in time.
Do they though?
With the gigafactory, they could very well be the company providing the batteries that the big manufacturers are waiting for.
I mean in IT i see first hand the notes left by people on pager duty in the middle of the night, and they differ significantly from the same peoples notes after a restful night of sleep.
Has there been any controlling in these studies i see mentioned through this entire thread for sleep deprivation present in people performing the handoffs? If they arent controlling for the amount of rest the people in the handoffs have had in the last 24 hours, im not sure i am willing to put much weight in these studies.
>I'd prefer single physicians for 24 hr shifts rather than 2 or 3 handing off to each other per 24 hr shift.
But if you came into the ER at 3am and the doctor you get has been working 23 hours, youre still going to need ot be handed off, and now youve received sleep deprivated care in the interim while waiting for a fresh doctor. Sure, for the guy who arrived just as a fresh doctor arrived, it might be beneficial to have them there for 24 hours, but how many new patients are they seeing in hours 12-24?

similarly the main apartment in friends seems pretty large
