chuck can.... control dutch's car remotely too??
can he do that to all of the cars? if so, why doesnt he just program blonde thunder and drive her from the comfort of the garage 😭
#mine#motorcity#eh its probs something to do with his pride or whateva#doesn't want the burners to know he pilots a car remotely instead of just driving it#but STILL#it would've been a great workaround to the race the duke challenged them to#actually... maybe they were hinting at it in that episode#bc if chuck can autopilot mutt he wouldve been able to save mike in the finale!!#instead of having duke drive mutt!#and when mike said “we really could use another car on the road”#chuck couldve just....... autopiloted blonde thunder#bruh

semi-convinced at this point that the final few seasons of the show wouldve been totally unwatchable to me if jared hadnt kept recommending changes/additions
#not that i care much abt him wearing the outfit from the pilot in the series finale#couldnt get over my disenchantment w dean enough to find his monologue in the finale or their Heaven remotely satisfying#took a look at ao3's post-finale offerings and just as i suspected it was like entirely romanticized tat in the same vein as the actual ep#maybe someday i'll figure out how to reimagine it into something that compels me#they shouldve given that ep to berens and not dabb tbfh! better emotional writing chops

it’s always fun to see how much old scifi-ish action movies got right and wrong about the future
watching the 6th day and like. Aside from cloning being widespread, a lot of the technology in everyday use is... not so out there
#jau rants#sure we pay with no contact card instead of our fingerprint#but it's close enough#same with self driving cars#and the remote piloted helicopters are just big drones

the word tumblr sexyman is devoid of all meaning atp and i think the wiki deserves a considerable amount of blame for it. like 90% of the characters on it shouldn’t even be there
#like why is ganondorf on there#why are we adding characters from pilots that came out like a week ago#these are not remotely similar to shit like the onceler or sans#idk#clock speaks ig

one of the things that i like about gundam is that even with weird space psychics it still feels Realistic; a lot of that is bc the show introduces this new form of communication, the next step in human evolution, a way for people to communicate when their souls are free from earths gravity, and immediately A: the main character and his rival’s hatred for each other deepens once they connect on that level, and B: the earth government is both deeply afraid of newtypes and tries to figure out how to artificially create them and use them as human weapons
#like compare that to star wars#where the force is essentially a personal experience/relationship#whereas in gundam theyre like ''oh youre psychic? you can connect to people across space in a deeply mystical and emotional way?''#''lets figure out how to artificially induce this even if it damages the pilots mind''#''and also figure out how to create mechs with remote guns that can only be used by newtypes''

The Great Australian House Rush: How We're Turning Medium-Sized Cities into the New Sydney Minus the Traffic Jams
Australia, a land vast and diverse, with cities bustling and bursting at their seams. Here we are, at a crossroads, much like that dreaded five-way intersection in Sydney where you’re more likely to meet your maker than make it to work on time. But fear not, for our beloved minister of Everything Important That We Usually Take for Granted (aka Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development, and…

What we know about the missing Sub
For whatever reason this story has absolutely grabbed my attention, and so I will be compiling the information that I can confirm in a decent timeline of events, feel free to message me if y'all feel like something needs to be changed/revised
A company known as OceanGate offers dives to view the wreck of the Titanic, charging 250,000 USD per ride. This sub is not approved by any regulatory body, and is controlled with an xbox controller. The inside is a small tube one would have to sit down to fit inside.
It is not a regular sub, but a submersible, which does not have the power to lauch itself and return on it's own, but instead must be launched and retrieved by a mothership. Thus, constant communication is of the utmost importance.
4 AM, June 18th, an expedition begins. Confirmed passengers are a pilot, a "Content Expert," Businessman Hamish Harding (who posted the linked instragram post,) and two other passengers who are as yet unconfirmed.
Communications with the sub are lost 1 hour and 45 minutes into the dive.
The US and Canadian coast guard begin working together to try and find the sub. The vessel has an advertised 96 hours of oxygen.
The instagram post earlier is found by CNN, although they do not yet divulge who posted it. They reach out to OceanGate for comment and get none.
An additional vessel is dispatched to assist in the search.
The US Coast Guard holds a press conference where they discuss the difficulties in locating the vessel in the remote area it dove into.
Coast Guard surmises that there is 70 to 96 hours of oxygen remaining, although this was reported abt ten hours ago, so it's more like 60 to 86 now.
The coast guard also begins a twitter thread which they are continually updating. They have completed two flights over the area but have not found anything, they will dispatch another plane in the morning.
OceanGate claims to be taking "every step possible" to recover the missing vessel.
Twitter user Kenny Sharpe realizes that he had seen the vessel being towed out to it's expedition and posts photos that he took.
LITERALLY FOUND THIS AS I WAS GETTING SOURCES, Daily Mail claims that the other two passengers are businessman Shahzada Dawood and his son, but given DM's dubious journalistic integrity (to put it nicely,) I would take this claim with a grain of salt until other sources confirm it.
I will update this as more info becomes available, feel free to message me with sources if you know anything.
