Cybertruck Full Review

newtboy says...

Oofff- Every cybertruck on the road has been recalled for dangerous design issues like gas pedals that stick on at full throttle, trunks that slice fingers off, and unprotected electrical systems that cannot get damp.
The stainless steel panels also cannot get damp or they permanently stain.
The bulletproof glass was a dismal failure.
The bed is absolutely tiny….it can barely fit a bicycle
The cybertruck has utterly failed as a truck…especially a $100000 truck you cannot resell for a year.

And as noted above driver assist on all models has failed, full autonomous driving is still a pipe dream, it seems to be getting farther away not closer.

Tesla’s just released profits were down another 55% from last year!

😂 And Elon insists he deserves an over $50 billion bonus!?! 😂

Border Collie Disc Caddy

newtboy says...

No, it’s “disk golf”. A separate entity from “golf”.

That’s like asking “is it really tennis if you play it on a table?”. It’s table tennis.
Is it really hockey if it uses air not ice? It’s air hockey.
Is it really a bicycle if it doesn’t move? It’s a stationary bicycle.

Dodge Viper Crashes During Street Race || ViralHog

newtboy says...

? What guy on the bicycle? Am I blind? I only see the motorcycle that pulled up after the crash.

Still totally not cool, plenty of opportunities to kill or maim someone. He got lucky. Don’t race on crowded streets with traffic and pedestrians people. Find a farm road or abandoned airport.

The guy on the bicycle looked like another 20 feet and he was a casualty. No cool.

The Watermelon Joke That Saved Me After I Got Pulled Over

luxintenebris jokingly says...

moonsammy: great take. thumbs-up! crystalized my thoughts exactly!*

a couple of rules of comedy are 'know your audience' and [the joke] 'it has to be funny'. if there is no laugh, either you told it wrong, told it to the wrong person, or your wrong about it being funny. your audience is the final judge. not their duty to laff at your doody joke.

stukafox: okay [btw: the watermelon joke is very old] but not going w/the worst or nastiest, just with a few of old risqué ones.

novice is riding back to the convent w/the mother superior on their bicycles through the medieval section of the town. mother superior tells the novice "let's cut through this alleyway". the alley is long, rough and bumpy but the novice agrees. when they get back on the regular route the novice says, "that was new! I've never come that way before!" mother superior says, "it's the cobblestones."

a woman notices her neighbor's tomatoes are fully ripening while her's are still green. she asks him "how do you get your tomatoes to ripen so quickly?" he tells her, "I get up around dawn while I'm still in my bathrobe and open it and flash them. they get so embarrassed they turn red." women tells him she's going to try it but later in the evening. the next day, the neighbor sees the woman and asks "so? did it work?" the woman turns to tell him, "no. it didn't - but YOU SHOULD SEE MY CUCUMBERS!

an old woman was talking w/her younger friend. old woman tells her about some of the older woman in town. "oh! don't let them fool you! they were pretty wild in their day! " then she went on and listed all the men a trio of sisters went through and each tête à tête they had. the list was shockingly impressive enough that the younger woman said, "gee...maybe they couldn't help themselves...maybe they suffered from a hereditary disease?" the old woman cocks her head back and eyes the younger woman then says, "hereditary? hell! yes! it was! it was IN THEIR JEANS!!!"

Thanks.
I took a dive to see how deep the froggy fresh/Krispy Kreeme hole goes....it was amazing! He did an entire hip hop opera about saving his friend after getting hooked on fun trip, a drug made by melting children, and getting involved with bicycle theft rings. He also actually went on tour! Now he writes country songs.
I forgot he was on tosh.0 too.

We Still Don’t Know How Bicycles Work

luxintenebris jokingly says...

small lists of everyday miracles...

-bicycles
-ice-skating
-naps
-dreams
-laughing
-yawning
-blushing
-why my sister seems tastier to mosquitoes than i *

no one really knows the why, what, or wtf-fors.

like the guy being asked, "there's a GOD isn't there?"
to which he responds, "how should i know? i don't know how the toaster works!"

somethings are and ours to question why.

We Still Don’t Know How Bicycles Work

newtboy says...

I must disagree.

First, it's precession, not procession, paired with the "caster effect" and static friction. It's a self correcting system that only works when in forward motion.
This nonsense with counter rotating wheels countering the gyroscopic effect ignores the fact that only the forward rotating wheels are using friction to direct the path of the bicycle based on their angles. It's not JUST the gyroscopic effect, that only determines the resistance to angular change, it's friction directed by gyroscopic precession and the self correcting caster effect. Come on.

Nobody knows how we ride bikes?! (A different claim from we don't know why they can remain upright when ghost ridden) Nonsense, it's balance plain and simple. If you don't keep the center of gravity exactly above the contact points with the ground, you tilt. When the centrifugal force exceeds static friction of the tires you slide out or when gravity exceeds the opposing centrifugal force caused by turning, you fall. Try turning your bike but staying exactly upright, no lean. Now, when you heal, try leaning without turning, lock the wheel straight, you'll fall again. It's multiple forces in concert.

I think a decent physics teacher would wipe the floor with this. It ignores so much to make these "we just don't know" claims.

All cars can go 0-100km/h in seconds. I've even done that on a bicycle(in the mountains). Not saying you're wrong about killing yourself quickly, just that it doesn't only apply to exotics sports cars;)

0-100km/h in seconds means you can kill yourself very quick.
