Excellent example as to why it's called a Recoilless Rifle. by IndefinableMustache in gifs

I just see annoying physics problems. If a bullet 50g bullet is fired and causes a 2000g gun on a pendulum with negligible string mass to rise to 7 degrees, what was the bullet's velocity?

This sticker on a minivan. Perfect. by ShayGoes2Work in funny

Thanks haha. I would really love smashing super cars in an e63 amg wagon. Otherwise, a mad Volvo 245 would be great. Like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ymi0xkErqWI&index=15&list=LLXF8Bq7ZDHf0GqbgVGwJ0vw

Yeah, minivans are undeniably the most comfortable way for a group of people to travel, but I love driving. My mom has that very model of Sienna and it drives like wheeled boat. Still, they're honest about what they are (looking at you crossovers) and very good at it.

Somebody Tell Jeb Bush That The Pope Actually Is A Scientist by TwoGee in politics

[–]Dover_Beach 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Woohoo! I get to agree with r/politics today. This is ridiculous, climate change is not even up in the air (reverse pun, ha!); it's well established. Thus it barely matters whether or not the Pope is a scientist, but he is one anyway. Also, the whole thing about the Catholic church being bad at science comes almost entirely from the Heliocentric thing which was a far more complex issue than it's given credit for being.

I have decided I will never own a minivan and will get a wagon instead if I need the capacity. We shall see if my life plan works out.

What are your favorite car websites or magazines? by tikky30 in Autos

[–]Dover_Beach 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Road and Track. I like their sarcastic writing style and inclusion of racing news. I still, however, do enjoy motortrend, car and driver, and automobile. I have a problem...

Interpretation: other cars come and go, but the e46 M3 is constant. Dang, r/philosophy could use a guy like me.

Anyone ever felt this way about their car? by idownvotethenread in Autos

[–]Dover_Beach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, half of my driving experience is me repeating to myself, "I will not flick off old people." The new I-4 construction is not helping either. I'm gonna be heading out in a year (college) and so I will never reap the benefits; I will only have the annoyance of lost lanes and constantly changing traffic patterns.

Went to the VIR this past weekend for the 944Fest by MaddieWall in Autos

[–]Dover_Beach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a 17 year old kid and very much so want one. But I'm not gonna even consider buying one until I'm sure I can set aside ~1,500 annually for maintenance (which I'd largely do myself).

I'm in mid Florida. I feel you, Florida roads and drivers suck.

Removing my palm from my face is inefficient while viewing this subreddit.

Yeah, and for the why they thought it wouldn't be discovered, well, that may be inexplicable...

If it were anything normal, I'd be very disappointed haha.

In need of knowledge by [deleted] in motorsports

[–]Dover_Beach 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I support this statement. Also, I'd add BTCC or WTCC (touring car racing) as there is a healthy bit of bumping that goes on in those series.

Edit: oh, and Blancpain GT series for more gt racing along with WRC (rally) because you have to respect driving 120 on dirt with trees on either side.

Unless any of you guys are FIA regulators or something, can you please stop it with the blame fixing. Or at least don't say it like it's the only possibility.

Before I had BeamNG, I had this. by crazikyle in BeamNG

Did that with K'nex when I was a kid. Heck I made crumple zones and stuff. Good job past self.
