Fair enough. Fixed the tagline. I'd say it's probably this defunct fitness craze if anything though - she doesn't look like the type to be going anywhere: That thing was fun as hell as a kid, I think I'm going to try to find one.

INFINITE POWER! Oblig: worst google image search result for infinite power. Apparently this lady runs with her arms like a praying mantis.

You could definitely call those vehicles a series hybrid in the sense that you have an engine in the system and it's only supplying power as a generator. The distinction I would make is in the scale of the components in the system. Traditional hybrid: ~1-2kW battery (basically zero range as an...

Series hybrid trucks? Literally nothing currently exists. It wouldn't need to be plugged in. I think the only true series hybrid on the market is the Nissan E-Power overseas. They've also only put it in small passenger vehicles. A lot of OEMs are afraid of them since they can be sort of...

The battery in a series hybrid is going to be considerably smaller than an ev or phev truck - potentially almost 2/1 orders of magnitude smaller respectively. A traditional parallel hybrid also still has the engine coupled to the drivetrain through the transmission, so, it can contribute engine...

The energy recovery is easy until you have nowhere to put it. Most series hybrids use a pretty small battery. If you're doing a long descent while towing - a situation where you would normally be utilizing engine braking, it's very conceivable you can fill up the battery, then components start...

He looks like he's making the dat ass face.

Nearly impossible to pull off when you need a gigantic battery to not severely compromise its ability to function as a comparable truck to the gas offerings. As it stood, even with the big ass battery they had, range while towing was a non-starter. The EREV they're replacing it with could be a...

This is ridiculously out of left field. The only way this could get more ridiculous would be if quarterbacks had entrance music like the WWE and suddenly before the first drive it started blaring and he descended from the rafters.

This remix button they added to google messages. Yeah, when someone texts me a picture and I open it, I don't want to view it fullscreen. What I really want is to have it slightly expand and get partially covered up by this oversized banana icon and 'remix' it, whatever the fuck that means. Who...

Fixed it for you. Dude's 35 and was already starting to slow down. Doubt he is able to rehab from that mess in under a year, so, he's probably looking at trying to come back at age 37. He's had a great career and won a Super Bowl, time to hang it up.

Which eye surgery? Inquiring minds want to know...

Just a word of warning, under no circumstances farm any job out through Lowes. We had the gutters redone on our old house with them. The company they subbed out to was the most incompetent group of dipshits I've ever had the displeasure of dealing with. We went to Lowes when they missed their...

Is that supposed to be your fridge in the corner of the kitchen? I wouldn't butt it up to a wall like that, especially if you were doing a french door fridge. Also, not sure what styles of cooking you do, but I think putting your range where it is will make it difficult to do a vent to the exterior.
