Let’s be clear, he had nothing to do with actually making the rockets or their ability to land other than paying the people who did the actual work. Read more

Elon absolutely amazes me for how he’s trashed his own reputation. He’s gone from being Tony Stark: “Yes, I can make rockets simultaneously land on their tails.”

I get it, this act of piloting a vehicle is quite complex, and developing technology to replicate that is hard. But to deliberately fleece 1000s of owners with the promise that “it’s just around the corner” for nearly ten years? Yeah, you’re cheating people at that point. Read more

“One thing I can promise, however, is that we will never make an all-electric Mustang” Read more

The cop purposefully ran around the rear of his cruiser, taking longer to get to the actual crime he was there to support, just to shove Guss. Then gets sensitive when called a name, and reverses to show how tough he is, still not supporting the officers there for the chase.  Read more

The guy that was arrested was backing up the entire time while the cop was the aggressor. Read more

First thing I thought of too. But the plane’s accident history is more the fault of well-heeled people who could afford to fly one but didn’t stay proficient in them. Read more

Absolutely no propeller-powered, all-metal aircraft should be breaking apart in the air from turning too fast. Read more

Vne on one of these is 125 knots, it is not an aerobatic aircraft  Read more

That is what I was thinking he descended and exceeded the never exceed speed and the wings decided they were done flying. Read more

Accidents from maintenance issues are not all that common, the big issue is the pilot, they may not have enough experience or not have flown enough recently and then there is the poor decision making with regards to weather and their own skill levels. As this one broke apart in flight I would suspect that the guy went… Read more

The photo is not of a V35. The plane that crashed was a 1966 V-tail Bonanza. Read more

Of course commercial flying is safer - the planes are safer. You don’t have nearly the redundancy in a single-engine plane that you do on a jet. Hence why I’m not nearly as worried about the 737 Max issues as some people are (got off one yesterday, in fact).

The “forked-tail doctor killer” strikes again. The V-class Beechcraft Bonanzas have a history that is not great. Read more

Might go back but I would be 100% ghosting and job hunting. Read more

Look, I have a very big airplane and the runways at these airports are so small. Why are they so small? My plane is very big and important. They shouldn’t allow small planes to be illegally parked on the side. They should ban these tiny planes, see how small they are? My pilot was perfectly following the law and this… Read more

I totally agree with your sentiment, but you got to remember these guys are probably working in CA and have like $5k/month rent or insane mortgages plus other bills. It can easily take 3-6 months to find a new job, too. I remember that Chargepoint also had layoffs this year, so it’s not like there is a huge demand… Read more

There’ no fucking way I would go back to a company that fired me on the whims of a child. This is the kind of business strategy you get from a guy whose reaction to opposition is ‘Go fuck yourself’, or as he put stupidly put it, ‘G. F. Y.’

Talk about a time where you really really didn’t need all those extra clothes anyway! Read more

Are we coming up with arbitrary reasons to create a divide amongst people now? Seriously?

If you have strong opinions on this either way you need to take a step back & look at the world around us, now ask yourself - is it worth it to die on this hill of all hills?

Now on to the topic - both have a time and a place - if… Read more
