...When you "get on the internet?" Really? No, more like you complain about atheists on a specific website known for being pretty pro-atheist.
Do you also enjoy going to Jewish delis and complaining that they are repressing your love for pork?
I'm sure there are plenty of anti-atheist places on the web if you'd like to avoid any alternative points of view. I know it's tough to use your brain.
Turbo charged cars and supercharged cars both have a higher compression ratio than naturally aspirated cars.
Wrong; compression ratio is a function of the geometry of the piston/combustion chamber only. In practice, it is actually usually the opposite - a similar engine that is turbo/super-charged will have a lower compression ratio than its NA counterpart, specifically because the forced induction requires less compression ratio to get the same power.
Static friction is greater than dynamic friction. This means that if your tires are sliding, they have less traction than if they were rolling normally. Physics doesn't go out the window "just because racecar."
He/she's making blanket statements as an industry insider would, and then applying logic from the point of view of an average consumer. So I'm pretty sure he/she's just trolling.
Not everyone living paycheck-to-paycheck chooses to, or lacks discipline. I hope that someday you are forced to do so, so that you might be more understanding to people in tougher situations than you.
They simplified this too much. Anyone could have plugged in the numbers for water. I want to see them take into account the non-water content of the human body. And maybe assume a non-uniform heating model, since presumably the energy would be transferred via a ray from a phaser.
There are car dealerships around here (Seattle area) that do "bottom line" or "lowest everyday" prices, but they are still above invoice. Car dealerships will even sometimes sell new cars at below invoice prices, because it's in their interests to move product and they will make that money back on manufacturer discounts, service, etc...
In my opinion, the root of the problem is that dealerships are an additional cost which affects the price of a car, and a good argument can be made that in a hyper-regulated industry with lemon laws, the cost isn't a necessary one.

Some of us enjoy live sports, and are willing to pay the (admittedly ridiculous) price for TV service to watch them.
I have a server + raspbmc's for everything else but can't seem to break the TV habit for this single reason.

3/10 - You made an effort to obfuscate but were still obvious troll.
What if I'm buying a summer car (like a convertible) that will only be used in good weather?

Hopefully he won't be Hexen id software by leaving them for other projects.
Oh, people can come up with statistics to prove anything, Kent. 14% of people know that.
All that's left is the cheap oem side of things.
Isn't that pretty much the biggest market out there??
What about Gil?

Yeah, let's take away the only thing that computers had going for them - doing exactly what they're told. THAT sounds like a GREAT idea.

SSDs are not about cost per space.

Wish I had a +1 funny for you...
Being able to purchase a car with cash is a monetary barrier between lower and middle class?
Really?
You must be using your own definitions of those terms. Either that or you're talking about a pretty cheap car.

Seriously, this is high school stuff here guys. The conversion formula (F to C) is:
F = (9/5)*C + 32
@ -40 C...
F(-40) = (9/5)*(-40) + 32
F(-40) = -72 + 32
F(-40) = -40
If you want it in reverse (C to F), the formula is:
C = (5/9)*(F - 32)
@ -40 F...
C(-40) = (5/9)*(-40 - 32)
C(-40) = (5/9)*(-72)
C(-40) = -40
Oh and if you were all trolling, it was moderately effective.
