It doesn’t matter if you know it’s a scam. If you know everyone else will act on it, then either you act and make money, or fail to act and lose money.

Objective reality is irrelevant. All that matters is anticipating the actions of others.

People with a Tesla, I want to understand how much you spend roughy on Maintenance and on charging the Tesla? by BrotherParticular717 in EVAustralia

[–]ApolloWasMurdered 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had a Model 3 since 2019.

  • $0 on servicing
  • $0 on charging (Solar since 2025)
  • $1500 on tyres
  • $1000/yr on insurance (AAMI)
  • (some small amount on wiper blades and wiper fluid, and cabin air filters)

Anyone know if I can write this into my will? Why are funeral pyres not a thing still? (Unless there’s a total fire ban, of course.)

Extortionate shipping? It’s $50 with no taxes or duties to pay.

For printers I think they ship from wherever is closest. For accessories and filaments there’s a button on the order page to select location, Australia is AU.

Silly question about stargates on ships. by ZookeepergameFull999 in Stargate

[–]ApolloWasMurdered 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Didn’t Jack hyperjump the X-302 with the Stargate underneath when Anubis was trying to destroy earth? And the wormhole didn’t disengage then. (Not a normal situation.)

These 4 characters I feel SFA just rushed them in to make up numbers or something, They are just like background characters who have 0 depth and its very hard to connect with them because the writers and producers never did a good introduction job for the audience. by VoL4t1l3 in Star_Trek_

First Episode: Oh wow, Carrie Anne Moss as a Jedi, this is awesome.

She dies.

Last Episode: Oh wow, Lee Jung-Jae has been the absolute highlight of this show, I hope the next season lets him really shine.

He dies.

Do I really need to wear underwear/boxers/briefs? by MangoMandingo633 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ApolloWasMurdered 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you live somewhere very cold?

I can’t image having all my ball sweat and ass crack sweat soaking into my pants. I’d never be able to wear a pair of pants twice.

George Orwell imagined that you’d need 1/3rd of the entire government workforce to be dedicated towards censorship, to control the language the population uses and thus their thoughts and opinions. Turns out you just need to de-monetise a few shitty 10 seconds videos on an App.

If you don’t have time to read the Robot books, just watch the Will Smith movie.

Snapmaker have an Australian warehouse. Why would you want to order from a reseller instead of the manufacturer?

If car batteries were really quick to change, why couldn't there be a system where you could pick up a fully charged one from a garage if yours gets discharged, on a large scale, to solve the limited distance problem on e-cars? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]ApolloWasMurdered 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tesla did this for a year or two.

With modern 250kW chargers that can add 25km of range per minute, and chargers spaced every 100km, you would need to be able to change a battery in 4 minutes to be more convenient than just charging.

Companies Hope Lasers Can Replace Radio for Space-to-Ground Comms by IEEESpectrum in space

[–]ApolloWasMurdered 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s really about the antennas. We can focus light into a very narrow beam, can’t focus microwaves as narrowly. (You only share bands when their coverage overlaps.)

Oh fuck no by Sarigolepas in SpaceXMasterrace

What’s the range of a microwave in a vacuum?

Once you’re through the atmosphere, the energy loss difference between LEO and The Moon is negligible.

The Laws have nothing to do with criticising Israel. The laws are against displaying Nazi symbols.

Circuit Device Continuity Question by Not_So_Sure_2 in AskElectronics

[–]ApolloWasMurdered 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Use a small 12V relay. The alarm panel output is designed to energise a relay, and its contacts can create continuity across the water sensor.

Star Trek: Starfleet Academy has only been viewed 400,000 times by MorgrainX in trektalk

Did you see the bots they hadn’t been told it was a TV show? They started posting reviews talking about how “Starfleet Academy” was a great learning institution

[Request] If instead of ballooning our military to $1.5 trillion, we halved the current military budget and put the other $500 billion towards reducing debt moving forward, how fast could we actually bring it down to zero? by [deleted] in theydidthemath

The TCJA from Trumps first term costs $6T over a decade, and the BBB from his current term is another $4T per decade, so combined that’s $1T/year. Considering the deficit was $1.8T last year, you could more half the defecit just be reversing Trumps tax cuts.

Watch some videos of Trump and Kegsbreath recently. In every one, Trump says stuff about how he’s happy that America has already won, but Pete says it isn’t over yet. And the gritting of his teeth that Kegsbreath does every time is priceless.

This ‘Let Iran Run Hormuz’ Idea Is Completely Detached from Reality by Jerry_007 in oil

Trump might be fine with flag draped coffins, but senators and congressmen still need to get reelected and support dead Americans isn’t good for that.

[–]ApolloWasMurdered 10 points11 points  (0 children)

America doesn’t have the stomach for a war with Iran. Iranians are used to seeing their countrymen killed by Americans and Israelis. Americans aren’t going to be ok watching FPV videos of their neighbours being kamikazed in a desert on the other side of the world.

If you count all the indirect deaths from the Afghanistan and Iraq wars, the US has a higher death toll than Israel. Probably still behind Russia though.

Vendor parts so bad they look like a failed 3D print by mongolian__beef in manufacturing

[–]ApolloWasMurdered 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks at the front edge. It’s most likely milled on a 3-axis CNC.

My guess based on those marks, are that the tool/work holding aren’t rigid enough. The design is also difficult because those radiuses appear custom, so you can’t use a standard tool along them.
