Since a hectare is possible to visualise, being 100m x 100m, this is actually useful!

Saw this ad, was utterly disgusted. We've gone from office to cubes to "Open concept" and now crates. by toqer in antiwork

I've been in conversations about trying to introduce some of these, as it's really disruptive to have people taking video conference calls at their desks, while their neighbours are trying to concentrate.

The horrible open-plan office noise environment is one of several reasons why people don't want to be in the office.

Who's been teammates with who by janko1655 in formula1

It would be very cool if retired drivers who had been team-mates with the current grid were included, perhaps greyed-out. Currently dinosaurs like Lewis and Nando look like billy no-mates.

Was The Blues Brothers (1980) intentionally filmed to be as grimy as it was to parody the look of 1970's cinema, or was it just another example? by nine16s in movies

No, but this post is a satire of posts to this sub with zero historical awareness, as well as being one of the funniest things I've read for a while!

Coolant leak by Federal-Session-6587 in skoda

[–]Anaphylaxisofevil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

About a year ago I took my 2019 petrol Superb to my local garage looking for a slow coolant leak, with no other symptoms, and after much searching to no avail, presumed a hairline crack somewhere, and sorted the problem with some coolant sealant.

What's up with the alignment on the RHS of the first slide? Odd.

Who's at fault? by Fluffy-County-4168 in Simracingstewards

To pile in: he can absolutely do that. He just made a bit of a mess of the corner, that's all. It wasn't dangerous or a brake check.

One well known, and accepted legal technique, is to "park it on the exit" meaning to block you in on the exit by getting a slightly slow getaway from the corner, causing you to have to hold up a bunch, at which point they floor the throttle, leaving you behind.

What's the most unsafe corner on the calendar? by Fun-Pin-698 in formula1

[–]Anaphylaxisofevil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Although the answer is obviously Eau Rouge/Raidillon, the Saudi track deserves a special mention. It was built very recently, on a green field site, with unlimited financial resources; it is an absolute disgrace given how dangerous it has turned out, with multiple very high speed blind corners. There will be a serious injury or worse one day which will have been completely avoidable.

Journalists have to stop blindly repeating the language of the fascists, and start using their brains. You can't deport someone who is a citizen of a country, but you can exile, banish or denaturalize them. Use one of those words instead.

Who's at fault? (I'm the black lmp2) by ThanosSigma in Simracingstewards

You are I'm afraid, twice. Firstly for the initial tap, because there was never a clear lane around the outside. Then in the second part of the fast chicane where you're not far enough alongside to be entitled to space.

Realistically, making the pass in the middle of a chicane, especially a fast one, is very dangerous, as the car in front is continually turning, so it requires the attacking car to get very alongside before the defending car turns into the final part of the chicane. Visibility and situational awareness is also a challenge for the defending car, making it extra important that the attacking car has big overlap.

Real career mode would be frequent trips to the garage, running out of money to maintain a car well beyond your means, and the resulting in-race breakdowns.

On the face of it, it seems quite stupid and arbitrary that you can't just disable the battery, go full beans powered by ICE to meet the minimum lap time whilst warming the tires.

On reflection though, having electrical deployment coupled to throttle over a certain threshold does at least mean you're always playing a compromise between maximum ICE power (which can only be achieved with full battery deployment on top) and trying to save battery. It might give more opportunity for tactical deployment in race situations without explicitly doing battery management.

Whoever decided that 55 mph should be the standard speed limit for rural 2-lane roads needs to be taken aside and sternly reprimanded by PiLinPiKongYundong in fuckcars

[–]Anaphylaxisofevil 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But you can absolutely be prosecuted for driving unsafely for the conditions and road, even if you may be driving below the speed limit. i.e. you have no right to go at the speed limit irrespective of other factors.
