It’d be fun for about a year, then I’d get bored of being in charge of people and try to ghost everyone

The second team you’re talking about isn’t Kansas, it’s Missouri

Are they sure the cracking was related? Tesla windshields just do that sometimes

Most of the value I’ve gotten out of it is that “I’m INTP” has been a helpful euphemism for letting mbti-heads know I’m autistic before I trust them not to get weird about me actually telling them I’m autistic

I’ve still never listened to the podcast

Ngl that’s how I found r/CTH back in the day too, saw someone complain about how it was even more radical than LSC

Electrical tape

Or you buy one to initiate a divorce without having to do the work of filing for it

Moving 100k eggs before they expire is crazy too, really hope they Robin Hooded them to like every local food bank and stuff

the USSR lost to this gaggle of clowns

tbf, they lost to a previous generation of clowns that hadn’t yet become 100% high on their own supply the way today’s clowns have

yeah, between the rear axel and the bumper. “just behind” the bumper if you’re coming from the back of the car, e.g., rear-ending it

edit: diagram to clarify:

China stays winning on this sort of thing fr

Oh yeah, the whole cybertruck is an engineering disaster I really want to hear a good deep dive on. There are so many systemic issues with its production, and it really is the exact shit you’d end up with by running a car manufacturer like a software company.

It genuinely suffers from trying to reinvent the wheel for like literally every part of the car - most automakers purchase parts from specialized manufacturers that serve a bunch of different automakers, Tesla builds nearly everything in-house and as a result suffers from issues that every other manufacturer solved many decades ago (like auto glass that doesn’t spontaneously shatter, functional windshield wipers, wheels that don’t rip off at the lug nuts, basic waterproofing, etc)

I enjoyed it as well, it was a big fixture of my musical theatre enjoyer phase back in the day and I think it really lived up to the play.

I always thought the politics were decent for being half-baked, since it at least gets “fascism bad” and “capitulating to fascists for personal benefit also bad”.

The heavy homoerotic subtext also holds a special place in my heart, really glad they turned it up to an eleven.

Ariana Grande did a much better job than I was expecting, too, she was really good at playing up the camp.

Lol yeah I wasn’t sure about either it until I saw the publish date, that’s why I specified the year. Not sure when it got bad but anything like pre-2010 seems likely aligned with their original purpose of debunking urban legends, and the older the better

snopes article from 1999 is p good

(Found from a citation in the section about the myth on the Chevy Nova Wikipedia article)

It’s specifically 17x more fire fatalities per car on the road - 5/35000 for the cyberturd, something like 30/3000000 for the pinto.

Notably the Pinto’s design was placing the gas tank behind the rear bumper, so getting rear-ended badly enough could cause a fireball. The big scandal was that Ford did the math on the cost of settlements vs recalls and found settlements would be cheaper, so they didn’t fix the issue.

Cyberturd on the other hand has big lithium batteries strapped to the bottom, notably locks occupants in the vehicle in the event of power failure (e.g. bad crash or battery failure, explosive or otherwise) AND its “apocalypse proof” design means it takes first responders a long time to smash through the windows to rescue you before you’re barbecued.

Nuevo is new, “No va” means “it doesn’t go”
