    I respect the fact that you're only talking about your own distorted, desensitized hearing. ;)

  2. . People feel social pressure to tip even if service is mediocre.

    Sure they do, Bill... just not in any industries where tipping is common.

  3. I'd put it at least an order of magnitude smaller than 1km...

  4. Tungsten Rods from Go^H^H the Mistress.

  5. It wasn't actually wasted; MV=MV.

  6. 1 nuke would be the end of it.

    Yeah, an airburst oughtta be particularly effective...

  7. And you don't even have to aim for the planet itself but merely the edge of the Moon's [rather shallow] gravity well; the Earth'll "take" it from there. ;)

  8. Meanwhile here I am thinking that this manipulative sociopath isn't as dumb as she seems...

  9. . Hugely diminishing returns past $1.5k.

    That depends entirely on the app in question and how you're using it. Anyhiw, next-gen VR headsets could very well show significant benefit from a pair of such cards tied together with NVLink... and there's your $1500.

  10. To be fair to the [ignorant] racist... I've met a few white ones. ;)

  11. Those who step up and refuse to be victims have my utmost respect.

    And... that may or may not be what's happening here.

    You left out "drooling at the sight of bare ankles" which must surely communicate something.

    And also because at no point in the "hail the car with an app", "type in destination", "get in the car", "wait" and "leave the car" process do you need to talk to the Uber driver.

    If I may state a fact, you are a disingenuous idiot.

    That is truly one of the most desperate and incompetent attempts at a hybrid strawman/trolling that I can recall seeing...

    What you are talking about is simply a math problem.

    Far be it for me to point out the obvious but a math problem, not so simply, could very well mean an engineering problem... and an engineering problem could require a different design.

  16. Cowardice, I tell you!

  17. Perhaps with many but one of the best - yellowfin (ahi) - has little to no fat... and smoked trout - also completely fat-free - is fucking awesome.

  18. It depends greatly what the deer've been feeding on.

    Meat not that great; grains fucking terrible. There's your anthropologically-accurate corrected version... whether those [who get Paleo confused with Atkins] agree with it or not.

    I'm going to assume that the "E" in this clown's title does not stand for "engineer." :)

  21. Or else just read a fucking book now and then, asshole.

    Seems like i hit a raw nerve (which i very much expected). Well, this might sound counterintuitive to a mind like yours but the very reason I don't have to resort to making up words is because I may have done just a wee bit more of that than youth - and likely anyone you know - considering i read Revolution in 2100 at the age of seven.

    Do try to carry a proper firearm to a gunfight?! ;)

    Slap some solar sails/ion thrusters/em drives on them and bide your time? Perhaps Lagrange Points would make more sense.

    It would burn up 60 km up

    Wouldn't it lack the lateral (orbital) velocities needed for that?

    Geez, it'snot going to be about raw materials cost, whether you're talking apples (Fe) or oranges (carbon).
