Rap Version Of Back To The Future Is Oddly Listenable

So . . . what makes a hard drive light on fire? (Wtf Talk Post)

Kilobits and kilobytes.

Megabits, jigawatts ... it is all terribly confusing. All I know is that: (a) math is goddam hard and (b) the internet is not a big truck that you can just dump information on -- it's a series of tubes.

Hit By Lightning Caught on Tape and the nasty results

I thought I had left a comment when this video was still queued, but I guess it never went through.

I had mentioned that electricity has to go out in order to go in. So it would have cooked all his organs between entry and exit, as well as fried the camera.

As far as the TIRES go (yes, THAT is how it it spelled, you weird foreigners!) they do not automatically provide insulation just because they are made out of rubber. Yes, they insulate greatly against it, but they will still conduct if the voltage is high enough. Being that lightning strikes with about one gigavolt and 1.21 jigawatts, it's more than enough to fry just about anything.
