i have to assume Langdon has a general plan for that already.
LA will take him if no one else does first.
yes, the force applied to THE ROCK will be much higher, but the car's mass is not relevant to the driver's reference inside the car.
Not if they crash into stationary objects like rocks, etc. In that case the amount of force the driver will experience will be 2-3 times higher compared to the amount of force a driver of a normal sedan will experience if he had the same accident.
this is not true, the deceleration (g force) imparted to passengers should be the same in either case. (all other things being equal, initial speed, crumple zones, etc). adding more mass to the car is irrelevant to the driver if you're hitting a truly immovable object.
because they’re safer for the drivers
also SUVs became the new minivan because minivans aren’t cool. with an suv you can cosplay as an off-roader who goes mountaineering on the weekends and drives uphill through snow both ways to work and back.
you can only do that so much, it would get stale very quickly.
what concerns me is they’re never going to make a show where the players never win, so that means sometimes “experts” are going to supposedly be convinced that the earth is flat. that eventuality is not going to be worth whatever benefit there may be of making flat earthers look silly (as if that hasn’t been done enough already).
they’re never going to make a show where the players never win. so that means sometimes “experts” are going to supposedly be convinced that the earth is flat on live TV. Great.
he has had some dickish moments but when you’re constantly talking publicly that’s pretty inevitable unless you’re a saint.
does he even have shows any more? why bother if they weren’t going to use him again anyway?
what about that good ole "free" speech elon?
oh no. whatever shall I do.
I'm pretty sure some companies are also using it to encourage people to quit before layoffs and needing to pay out severance. Happened to me earlier this year. In December they announced we'd go from optionally fully remote, to mandatory 3-days in office in February. Then at the end of march they laid off a bunch of people.
So watch the timing at Dell, I wonder if we'll see some layoffs there in a couple months.
yeah, lots. would have been a good fit in Orlando for example.
surprised he didn't explore free agency at all.
They said they got Giddey to replace Alonzo's playmaking. I don't think they're counting on Lonzo to be the player he was before even if he does make it back.
absolutely insane. the only explanation is that Chicago is extremely high on giddey for some reason.
Chicago better get some picks with this or it's a real WTF move. Supposedly they could have had a top ten pick at the deadline.
it certainly isn't controversial to say evolution is the only explanation for the origin of behaviour. What else could it be?
there’s a lot to unpack here. firstly, there is more to human behavior than genetics/evolution, hence nature vs nurture. in other words our human experience determines our behavior in addition to genetics.
Secondly, that’s not the only claim or assumption of Evolutionary Psychology. There is lots of other stuff besides that statement that is controversial at best.

ICE is dead, and none of the developments make it to road cars anyway. Meanwhile, battery/EV tech needs all the development it can get and F1's have been frozen for years.
Make F1 road relevant again, not just aerospace on bubble gum tires. Let teams compete on the tech that actually matters to the motoring world.

![Tell Your Representative in Congress to Reject Pro-Homeopathy Amendment | Center for Inquiry](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/89a4d2f3-104a-4fca-996f-22ae27ce6dee.jpeg?format=webp&thumbnail=256)
CFI calls on our supporters to help defeat a pro-homeopathy amendment being proposed for the federal appropriations bill H.R. 4368. The homeopathy lobby is pushing hard for this amendment, and we need CFI supporters to voice their opposition to their members of Congress.
Homeopathy groups such as Americans For Homeopathy Choice (AFHC) are lobbying strenuously for Appropriations Amendment #4. This amendment would bar FDA enforcement of the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act against new homeopathic drug products as long as a product complies with “standards for strength, quality, and purity set forth in the Homeopathic Pharmacopoeia of the United States.” In other words, it would replace much-needed federal regulation with the industry’s own standards.
CFI has consistently pointed out that homeopathy is bunk science that does not work beyond the placebo effect. Homeopathic products are typically diluted to the point that no active ingredients remain. It is quack medicine and consumer fraud.
The Homeopathic Pharmacopoeia’s standards of quality are not medically valid. Yet the amendment would exempt homeopathic products from FDA regulation and oversight if they comport with those standards. This amounts to an argument of “No need for federal regulation, we can regulate ourselves with our own standards even if they constitute medical fraud” – or, more succinctly, “Let the fox guard the henhouse, please.” (Indeed, CFI has tussled with the Homeopathic Pharmacopoeia before.)
At the moment, AFHC and the homeopathy lobby are seeking additional co-sponsors in the House of Representatives for their amendment. This is where CFI’s supporters come in.
We need our supporters to mobilize and contact their members in the House of Representatives immediately. Please let them know, in no uncertain terms, that homeopathy cannot and must not escape federal regulation. It is crucial to keep Appropriations Amendment #4 out of the federal appropriations bill.

We know Ted now owns NBC Sports Washington. Does that make it more or less likely that they follow other teams like the Jazz in setting up over-the-air and streaming packages?
Hi guys, I mainly just created this space as placeholder because there wasn't one yet. If anyone wants to take over running it just ping me.

The Washington Wizards have granted star Bradley Beal and his representatives permission to speak with teams the three-time All-Star has interest in being traded to, league sources tell B/R.

The Miami Heat and Milwaukee Bucks are expected to talk with Beal and his agent, Mark Bartelstein, sources say.
Another team that’s had Bradley Beal trade talks with the Wizards: The Kings, sources tell me and @sam_amick. It’s believed Beal would consider Sacramento given his no-trade clause, but right now there does not appear a clear pathway for the two sides.
