Utility never goes out of style

There are also plenty of dumb, nearly inconsequential recalls on regular cars too. Including things like "place this warning sticker in your manual". That's a recall.

Yes, the bomb travelled forward in time at one minute per minute

If you commute that much you're living in a box either way

CEOs? Ruin their career? By what, jumping ship and taking a $100M bonus?

Lol, like the previous Boeing CEO. Kill a few hundred people, planes or plane components falling out of the sky, absolutely tank all manufacturing quality control, fail a NASA contract and strand a few astronauts...

Peace out and take a $62M bonus.

I wish I could get paid that much for failure or "accepting responsibility" lol

What if they just had an entire zoo where every animal was just a dog with dyed fur

Strange how Google became the default search engine back in the day because they were so good at filtering out the dumb websites that just spam search terms all over the page.

They've regressed and become Yahoo

Every other version of Windows. It's practically a law of nature at this point.

Many birth defects are rare, and require 2 copies of a defective gene to show up. Most "normal" people will be carrying a few defective genes (out of thousands of pairs), but are fine because they have a good copy still working.

Family members tend to have similar genes.

The chances of you and a family member having the SAME defective gene are massively greater than you and some random stranger.

Thus any child would also have a massively greater chance of inheriting 2 identical copies of the defect.

From my understanding, the P8P's video boost can't be done in the phone itself, but it's actually uploading the video to Google's servers, processing it there, then downloading the finished product back again. In fact, it probably uploads two videos, one at high ISO and one at low ISO to get the full HDR range.

For anyone who wants to take lots of videos, this sounds like it'll blow through your data caps very quickly.

Big jump for the regular 8 but no increase at all for the pro?

Looking at the details listed from this leak, it looks like all the previous leaks were wrong. The specs for the main sensor are the same as the P7, the Samsung GN1 sensor.

Also rumors of the IMX787 ultrawide appear to be incorrect as well, only 48MP instead of 64.

Still waiting for Canoo to produce a consumer version, but at least they've made the vehicles for NASA. Maybe the publicity from this will help them get enough interest for the initial production and sales?

I'm guessing it's still a production line test unit, but it seems like the design is finalized and volume production could actually begin by the end of the year

or else what? They'll bring in paid moderators to do an actual job?

The year is 2082

Hollywood will not take any risks.

The only actors are the reanimated corpses of Tom Cruise, Scarlett Johansson, Zoe Saldana, Samuel L Jackson, Tom Hanks, and Harrison Ford, all de-aged back to life with VFX.

The only films are Fast 43, Avengers vs The Spider-Verse XIV, Indiana Jones 22, Star Wars Episode XXI: Revenge of the Return, Toy Story 25, Avatar 5, and The Lion King: The Animation of The Broadway production of the Re-animated Live Action: 3D Extended Edition.

Can't wait to see more of these. I hope that Rivian eventually makes an RV/camper version of this, it would go well with their adventure vehicle branding
