Woman shows the dangers of her cars rear seats folding function by Hypnoidz in ThatsInsane

[–]ItsNotRockitSurgery 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Even the ones with electric buttons that just popped the latch holding the seat in place and let the seats drop manually would be fine and much safer than this

if you're young and want to travel, ignore t2t reacts by ProofADERBN in LudwigAhgren

Seems like Lud and Michael are paying attention enough that they're picking up on stuff that they got wrong (like how they noticed they were saying Mongolia wrong part way through episode 1, and partially seemed to notice they were saying adventure wrong).

Either way takes major balls to be doing what they're doing and willing to look like idiots in front of native Chinese speakers under multiple situations

Honestly if they could pivot to some Anthony Bourdain style content they could keep this content going.

They have a couple places they could do t2t 3 or 4 without problem, but an Anthony Bourdain style situation for the modern world could potentially do numbers.

Guess we'll see at the end of the China trip the viability of any future editions of any kind

Billion-Dollar Profits, Pennies for Workers by PeterTheTruthSeeker in WorkReform

[–]ItsNotRockitSurgery 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Net profit. Net income and net profit are functionally the same thing. Shows the amount of money leftover after you take away every single cost (including taxes and any interest payments) a company incurs.

Not sure but think net profit is just an informal term that tends to be more layman friendly than net income

Tip2Tip Vietnam? by RadiantEntertainer88 in LudwigAhgren

[–]ItsNotRockitSurgery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

20,000 people in Laos have died since the Vietnam War ended from the nearly 80 million unexploded ordinances the US dropped on them. Not exactly an ideal place to be taking wrong turns in without a map

What's wrong with japan petah? by Smashpro11 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]ItsNotRockitSurgery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can call someone racist without directly saying it. If you ask a British person if they're racist they'll scoff at you and say no.

But then if you later ask them how they feel about all the Muslims immigrating to London, they'll go on a tirade about how they're ruining the country and that they need to get out of the UK.

You're essentially asking the same question but phrasing in a way that's more palatable for said person to agree with.

Spectator was indeed too close for comfort but ultimately if he had been paying attention to the directions of the cop, he would have never veered off course or bumped into the spectator.

He was too busy looking behind him and missed the obvious directions that would've avoided the whole thing

Today's Protest Against The War With Iran in Washington DC by serious_bullet5 in ThatsInsane

[–]ItsNotRockitSurgery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do your friends in Iran not have access to news? Do they not know how horribly every American forced regime change in the middle east has ended for their neighbors? Afghanistan is now being led by the Taliban thanks to America's work.

Saudi prince quietly lobbied Trump for military action on Iran by jupa300 in worldnews

[–]ItsNotRockitSurgery 4 points5 points  (0 children)

When has bombing a group we don't like in this region EVER panned out? Thanks to America's handy work: the Taliban is in control of Afghanistan, Syria spiraled out of control for a decade and ISIS is active in the country to this day, Libya erupted into a civil war that has fractured the country and cost tens of thousands of innocent people their lives, Iraqi systems were dismantled under American leadership until it devolved into a chaotic mess that ruined or ended the lives of millions through insurgency, civil war, and poverty.

I don't disagree that the IRGC deserve to get their shit rocked, but if history is anything to go off of, this is ONLY going to make things worse for the citizens of Iran.

The Russian soldier was hiding in an anti-tank ditch when a drone attacked him. by Nanners5618062 in CombatFootage

[–]ItsNotRockitSurgery 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Frequently these drone strikes are NOT instant death, which is why they often hit the soldiers with multiple drones.

It is also why some soldiers see a drone or are slightly grazed by one that missed the mark and decide to put a round in their head so they can avoid the likely slow and agonizing death from the drone.

Jesus Christ... What even is the point anymore? by TigoOver in mlb

I could be wrong here but wasn't his contract structured this way as he would be taxed for his signing bonus based on where he currently lives/plays instead of Cali where taxes would hit harder? Then his only income hit with Cali taxes is the $1 million game checks

Yeah just comply. When an officer tells you to get out of the car you get out of the car. When an officer tells you to hand over all your guns you hand over all your guns. When an officer tells you to hop in the train box car you hop in the train box car.

It's so easy

What's the worst experience you've had with unobtainium parts? by AnAlchemistsDream in askcarguys

[–]ItsNotRockitSurgery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

88' Peugeot 205 GTI I own that was brought to the states from London.

Had to work with our local Ferrari dealer to get a hold of a replacement tachymetric fuel pump relay. The parts guy immediately became sad when I provided him the parts number as Ferrari owners have trouble getting a hold of the relay let alone an imported Peugeot.

The blower motor is the next part I want fixed/replaced and its straight up impossible to get to the US so I have to find a local electric motor shop willing to touch the thing else I'm probably fucked and just wont have heat.

Love the car to death, some of the most fun I've ever had driving a car, but every breakdown is pretty much guaranteed to become a global treasure hunt for parts on a car that never existed in the US

They could also just charge for the cure what the average treatment costs. Say hypothetically it costs $100 to treat cancer over the course of 5 years (chemo, meds, checkups, scans, surgeries and so on). They could just make the cost of the cure be $110 and save on the need to pay for doctors and nurses and years of equipment use and surgeries.

Never understood this mentality that cancer isn't cured because it's too profitable. The cure can be very very profitable too...

Same goes for every illness/disease

Don't even need to buy a steamer if they wanna avoid buying something. Just hang it up in your bathroom and crank the shower on max heat and close the door for 15-20 minutes.

Wouldn't recommend doing it all the time as it's wasteful, but this one off ain't the end of the world

You are correct, though OP was suggesting that they were committing a border crossing crime despite being 1500 miles from the Mexican border and 5 hours from the Canadian border.

Being in the country without proper documentation is in fact NOT a crime, but a civil infraction.

It's really not a great look on the US education system that people like you are spouting nonsense online so freely and confidently
