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).

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?

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.

You said:

We shut down reactors of which no one knows how functional they are because no one checked that because they were scheduled to be shut down anyways.

If they weren’t scheduled to be shut down in the first place people would have known they worked.

I think it was the biggest coach contract to begin with, so must be.
