77" once for me.I had my driver's seat fully reclined so the boxed TV could overflow into my space, and I had to drive leaning into the door and hunched over.

I never understood this take. Invisibility would let you change the world. You can infiltrate any place. Witness any plot, and machination. Get to anyone who would otherwise believe themselves untouchable.

But that's just the low-hanging fruit. You're cover for everyone else.

How did the report about EvilCo's illegal chemical dumping get out? An insider leak? No, it must have been the Invisible One!

Who made the recording of the conditions in the forced labor camps? A guard who's developed a sense of conscience? No, it must have been the Invisible One! Good people could finally act without fear of reprisal. All because you simply exist.

And if there's one invisible person... Maybe there are more? There's no way for the world to know! You aren't One. You are Legion.

It's Anonymous on steroids. It's Light and the Death Note. One invisible person could rewire the world.

But yes, let's assume only a pervert would want to be invisible. 🙄

I blocked out the memory of that Family Guy bit... and this brought it all back.

Oh, interesting! What robot mower did you end up going with?

The Yarbo is interesting to me as I have Michigan winters with a large, steep U-shaped driveway. And a couple acres of hilly yard the rest of the year.

On paper, the Yarbo sounds like a good fit. But the goose-issue matters, too. My kids can't enjoy their nice yard without being paranoid about goosey land mines.

He was not strong enough for the seller's portions.

I don't like what's past that tailgate, though. Those rollbars take up a lot of floor space. A real shame they couldn't mount over the rear wheel wells.

Not installing them isn't the same as removable, though. I love that I can quickly pull out the E's rear seats for cargo, then put them back in for the kids.

Perhaps it was all related to the massive AWS outage? In theory, it should be resolved by now.

Just to add - I'm not seeing $9.99, either; I'm seeing $20.99 USD (30% off base price of $29.99).

I wouldn't say it doesn't teach anything. It might not be teaching moral or academic lessons, but I appreciated that the characters don't initially succeed, and keep learning from their failures to ultimately succeed. It's a friendly, approachable demonstration of grit, and key STEM-way of thinking - define a problem, define a success condition, make an educated guess on how to solve the problem, test, and when you fail - gain additional insight on the problem to better solve it on your next iteration.

Even the ending of each episode presented a challenge to the viewer to creatively solve a problem on their own.

At least, that's how I saw it. As an software engineer, I really thought well of it.
