She's buying a house at 28, so possibly.

Besides, I've needed medical treatment for something that happened at work before.

I remember a quote from an A380 pilot saying the plane doesn't look like it should be able to fly.

Even the people that fly them know they don't look like a flying object.

It is, and there's a handful of people trying to one-up each other.

With great financial success, I might add.

It's far dumber than that. The door release was electric, and the alternator wasn't powerful enough to run everything on the vehicle. So, if you were driving at night, with your headlights, wipers, heater etc running, you'd be slowly running your battery down, until the voltage got too low to run the ignition, and the vehicle would shut off.

And you'd be trapped in a dead vehicle on the side of the road, in the dark, with no lights.

Thing is though, this happened with the Delorean back in the day, so it's not a new problem at all.

I remember something similar happening with the Delorean DMC-12, and they were absolutely ridiculed for it.

How is this legal? Who let these vehicles on the road?

There's nothing oniony, or even unusual, about using something other than your first name.

The fact that all this can run on a phone is incredible, this sounds very processor intensive.

I wonder what it would do to your battery life?

believe none of what you hear and only half of what you see.

This has caused a huge amount of problems in the last decade or so, and isn't necessarily something to celebrate.

I can definitely sympathise with that.

The actual ads I don't have any strong feelings about, the ones sponsoring creators are the ones I look at sideways.
