It's called a Pittsburgh Left?! When I first came to the US to Boston it drove me crazy, to me it was the epitome of uncivilized American driving "how dare you cut in front of me without my permission!" But it makes sense at

I'm curious what LIDAR solves for border security, that infrared cameras can't already do. I guess they could more easily identify slow moving objects and camoflage?

BMW did something with the 116d, 118d and 120d. All had the same 2 litre diesel engine - and there was considerable sharing of all power related components, including the brakes. Not 100% identical across the board but pretty darn close. T

American Express has helped me out twice with this because they are a global entity. Originally became a member in Germany, moved to the UK and all I had to do was change my address with Amex and I had a UK credit card with no credit histor

Yet despite recognizing all these shortcomings we still have the arrogance to think we can create a better ‘human’? That would be a better steward without primal urges? That’s distinctly human egotism. I feel we would already have to change
