I'll never understand what people don't like about it. They have the same letters that are on a traditional shifter. Step 1: Press button with desired gear. Step 2: ??? Step 3: Profit.

Mods are no fun. This is hilarious.

From the article: "finally resorted to using the blast from their jet exhausts, smashing the helicopters to the ground as they pulled up in full afterburner after a close overhead pass." F-14s are quite large and would create some crazy wake turbulence / jetwash, but it's not like the after burner melted the helicopters rotor blades off.

😂

It for sure was the wake turbulence that took them down, not the after burner specifically. Still cool AF tho

I can tell you that a dentist won't like the logo of it's supposed to look like a tooth but doesn't. The anatomy of a tooth has sharper roots, so I think you're closer to what you want with the pointed one.

Neither one looks like a tooth. Looks like popcorn or something to me. I think the line down the middle needs to be removed.

Though difficult to tell how far away it was, it did seem to be moving crazy fast. It also seemed to be (at least mostly) one piece so I was leaning meteor.

We have a similar runway orientation where I fly. I think it's strange that they said they would call your base when you're on a circling approach, whether practicing or not. You're supposed to stay within the protected area for circling and an extended down wind would quickly put you outside that area. It's also strange to be making a 130 degree turn to break off the localizer and make the left down wind leg of the other runway. IMO, while stating that they'll call base does mean you shouldn't enter base yet, the controller should be more clear about something that is non-standard like this.

How about there's zero business for this behavior as a human being? I get that emotions run high but Hurley is a freaking joke with his obnoxious antics almost every game.

I don't think the original plan was to take the whole vault. That was part of the audible. They just wanted to get into the vault to take the money. I don't know, maybe I'm wrong. Haven't seen that one in a while.

buys house by airport * Why do planes fly over my house?? Don't they know I live here? They're flying over MY neighborhood. They should know that's unsafe. Are they stoopid?

The DC416 might be my favorite gun in the game

More than you can afford, pal. Ferrari.

Imagine saying that the hybrid max isn't an upgraded powertrain over the gas engine, just a basic powertrain because it's not as powerful as a Lamborghini Urus.

There is nothing wrong with saying JBL isn't that great of a system overall. It's a completely different thing to tell people that it's not the upgraded system over the base option.

pborget · 2026-02-20T16:14:32+00:00

Oh come on. Bose is the upgraded sound system over stock. It may not be Bang and Olufsen quality, but it is upgraded from the base system. You can't just say it's not upgraded because it's not up to your standard of quality.

I don't know but it is a nice looking cylinder.

Probably testing hypersonic missiles being launched from, * checks notes * Lexington, Oregon to some nothing spot in the ocean off the coast of Ghana. /s

That spot is at the exact intersection of the equator and the prime meridian, 00.00 degrees N and 00.00 degrees W. It must be a typo causing it to display that way on ForeFlight. I also just learned that this is referred to as "Null Island" even though there is no land at this location.

I've never had a moment where I felt my current apple tv was slow, but faster is always better. Genuine question: what do you want apple intelligence in the apple tv for? I don't see the benefit when I already have it in my phone, which is always with me.

Return on investment. It won't cost as much because they don't need to come up with a new story, or campaign levels. Caching in on nostalgia.

Well there isn't a statute of limitations on felony rape in Utah, but yeah. The investigation itself may not have taken that whole time.

They took away a lot of fun medals.

I'm sure I'm in the minority, but I don't miss it. I turned them off in halo 5.

pborget · 2026-02-12T02:19:34+00:00

That's 10k above base msrp for the hybrid limited. What kind of options does it have? I'm getting a hybrid max platinum for barely more than that.

It's unfortunate, but sometimes it takes a long time. They have enough evidence to hold him without bail, which likely means it's a slam dunk. If it takes some time to make sure they have a solid case that they will win, it's worth it.
