I was gonna say that the germans have improved a lot recently but apparently they still gas monkeys and humans so maybe not. amazing how the march of technology has miniaturized the same worry into something the size of a samsung note

Jonny 290 posted:yah corvair notion wasnt bad on the face, they just didnt have suspension modeling back then rly. couple of tweaks and it woulda been fine the problem wasn't a lack of modeling. it was that once they realized the design was problematic, they didn't do anything. no one blames GM for failing to foresee the then-unforseeable. we blame them for not immediately recalling a known-dangerous design, even after fixing it for new-production vehicles.

i'd imagine they also wouldn't have quite as bad a reputation if their rebuttal to nader's book hadn't been to tap his phones, try to get him in bed with hookers, and dig up dirt on his family members they certainly wouldn't have quite as bad a reputation if they hadn't been so blatant about the above that they had to admit to all of it in a public senate hearing all those jokes about GM being run by thugs came from somewhere

san francisco's tap water is so pure they don't even have to filter it. comes straight from the hetch hetchy reservoir in yosemite and they add chlorine and put it in your pipes, that's it. so naturally everyone only drinks filtered water.

everywhere likes to try and brag about how good their local tapwater is but i don’t wanna hear a drat thing until you’ve actually spent time in an area that has really really soft water hafta descale your faucets and shower heads once in awhile? don’t have any bottling plants nearby? nah your water is fine i guess, like most places that don’t use artesian wells to flush their toilets
