Fair enough, different motivation, same result

That’s just it though. This kind of shenanigans is done specifically to challenge and call out the stupidity of certain laws that grant personhood to things that are not people.

I mean… What would make the most sense would be for the race to be over when its predetermined distance has been completed.

No reason to make the race longer. If it ends under a yellow flag, it ends under a yellow flag. If they have to red flag it, resume at the distance they were at. I don’t see how this is complicated or controversial

Then again, the pure intentional chaos at the end of recent Daytona 500’s should have been nipped in the bud and not allowed in the first place

Next thing you know they’re going to add an extra hour on to the 24 hours of Le Mans because somebody crashed during the final hour. Or maybe we can add an extra stage to the Monaco rally if one stage is too muddy. I know let’s make the Baja 1000 an extra 60 miles long just in case somebody breaks an axle! 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

but if they do want to add laps on (which still doesn’t make any damn sense) why not just call them “extra laps”

You know… I was thinking the exact same thing lol I’m sure they’re referring to the period of time it took to complete the race but it’s still a really stupid headline.

Edit: turns out you were more right than you knew, and I was totally wrong. Somehow a race has overtime (which doesn’t make any sense because the race isn’t timed) and the “overtime” resulted in extra laps being run, so it was in fact a 530 mile long 500 mile race.

My 10 year old son still “mends” things and only uses the word “whilst”

I love how shitty she can be sometimes

My favorite episode is the one where the school needs a new roof and they have a charity pledge run, but none of the other adults take part it’s just daddy pig and then all of the other adults get a bus and follow him and laugh at the fat man running

I feel like we really missed an opportunity here not calling it wolf 359

Yeah, but he said the same thing about tanks.

Why is this posted in the sub Reddit? She falsified her time sheets and stole time. It’s pretty standard for people who are found guilty of doing that to have to pay restitution to the employer for the payroll that they stole.

I always love posts like this because it just shows that the poster doesn’t understand the effects industry at all.

I love watching people bitch about digital effects aging poorly without realizing that most of the dinosaurs in the original 1993, Jurassic Park were digital effects

I love people Saying that practical effects are superior without realizing that many of the ugliest shots that people complain about in the Phantom Menace are practical

I’m not smart enough to know the answers. Why we’re still not doing it. But the root cause is Kennedy and his stupid to the moon and back speech. Up until that point this was absolutely NASA‘s plan but Kennedy’s stupid speech meant that there was no way they would have enough time to implement that plan so they just went balls to the wall with a program to get onto the moon and absolutely no continuing benefit after that. If they are stuck to the original plan which is what you’re proposing, they probably wouldn’t have gotten to the moon until the mid to late 70s but we would almost certainly be on Mars right now.

If you’ve got enough energy to dump into it, it absolutely is, it’s just not realistically practical to do so. it would take a “kettle” that draws about 330,000 W to boil a liter of water in five seconds

That’s what people said about them no longer including charging bricks, and removing the headphone jack, and removing the CD ROM drive, and removing the floppy drive…..

No, they didn’t, it’s literally the opposite, the law literally says “in so far as devices charge with a wire” It specifically exempts devices that charge wirelessly.

What?

And? We’re talking about Apple here. Not everybody had wireless headphones when they eliminated the 3.5mm jack, not everybody was ready to get rid of physical media when they eliminated the CD ROM drive, not everybody was invested into CD-ROMs when they eliminated the floppy on the original iMac

I placed my bat with no USB connection to the phone ever. If you pay careful attention to the specific wording that they’ve used talking about it, they only said that they would “comply with the law in the law specifically exempt devices they do not charge with a physical wired connection.

I think these analysts are wrong. I think they’re gonna go straight up wireless only.

If you can change the baseboards look up cable raceways, they’re basically Hollow baseboards to run cables through

Possible but I’m skeptical, the feature is not just reliant upon shock/g force. It also uses pressure sensors and microphones so while I don’t think it’s impossible I do think that these stories are questionable until further verified.
