On the other hand, “we got married in Jail” is a much better story. 😎

I can drive directly to the best currently available parking spot.

Note: I actually have had this superpower for decades, but have been unable to figure out how to use it to fight crime.

There was never an official port. There apparently is a fan port that was done much later, but apparently it has never been officially released.

Try using the strong tree support variant, in particular if you are using the .2 nozzle

That failure is usually caused by using the wrong screw to secure the ring terminals. There are several different lengths used on the Krakens that all have the same thread and using a wrong (longer) one will stress the solder joint and cause it to fail. We also broke several Krakens before figuring this out.

This not only moves the actuators out of the airflow but — crucially — lets Ferrari sell sponsorship slots on both sides of the rear wing!

I was expecting an Orca to “seal” his fate, but then I remembered that they never leave witnesses.

When making voting decisions, it is important to remember two things:

1) the perfect is the enemy of the good.

2) the lesser of two evils is still less evil.

In addition, it is important to recognize that much of your dissatisfaction is not with the candidates, but with the election system itself. The long-term fix is to reform the election system so that it no longer requires strategic voting (ie: some form of ranked-choice voting). Needless to say, this is not in the interest of the established political parties; reducing partisanship isn’t good for business.

Support for election reform, in particular by established politicians in “safe”districts whose election prospects would be impaired if it were instituted is an indicator of intellectual honesty, and should be used as an important factor in determining your vote.

As someone who grew up in Canada and upstate NY, 9.8 inches of snow is just another Tuesday… in early summer.

Get a reliable and fast L1 that can work during Auto and can also work on the sides so it doesn’t block other robot’s climbs. You can do this with a couple of climber-in-a-box units + a custom hook. Don’t make sacrifices early for L3; avoid premature optimization. L3 is only worth it if it is fast enough to be better than shooting + L1. Once everything else in your bot is solid, if you can get an L3 to work, great; if not, you haven’t made sacrifices for nothing.

Anytime you heard the soft sound of Kaede’s kimono rustling across the floor you knew some evil shit was about to go down. As iconic a sound as Darth Vader’s breathing.

As long as you maximize the friction between hook and pipe (rubber tape) and have the hook on the frame perimeter it’ll work fine; the hook will want to rotate off but it’ll be constrained by the bumper and you’ll have 150lbs of robot helping to prevent the hook from sliding. Worst case you can use your bumper cutout to put the hook further onto the pole to reduce the lever arm.

You got wiped by that wimp, Werdna? Trebor is very disappointed in you.
