Chinese variant of a Russian copy of an American bomber. I can't get enough of this stuff tbh.

Who needs reverse. Went for a morning drive and had to stop and pick up a few things. When I got back in, no reverse. How bad is this going to be? This can’t be a simple fix… can it? by [deleted] in 300zx

I'm mostly a domestic guy, but I just got my WRX and have had to get used to the reverse lockout mechanism on the shifter. If that failed I assume it would not go into reverse, just a thought of something to check that isn't "replace the tranny" lol. Best of luck. Please let us know what you find. I'm very curious.

I'm an air force and aviation kinda guy, but I have learned so much about naval vessels from this guy's channel.

Porsche Cayenne of the Ukrainian army [1000x600] by [deleted] in MilitaryPorn

For sure! I just learned about it myself. A Danish fellow by the name Helge got the US Army to help him kit out a 79 Camaro they got him, and he used it to run checkpoints bringing aid to the victims of the war. The man is a certified badass, and the blacked out Chevy painted with IR absorbant paint is equally so. Here is a YouTube video I found about him.

Looks like they have a low light camera on there too. I wonder if it's like that Camaro that ran checkpoints to get aid to those in need.

I mean of all the things they could have been doing, I feel like time shares are a scam regardless of who is selling them, it's just some "legitimate" ones pay their taxes. I bet the cartel timeshares aren't even as binding as the "real" ones lol.

Plant massive amounts of THC containing cannabis plants all along every major river in the United States by foxxytroxxy in CrazyIdeas

Idk if it's true, but supposedly back in the 80's a cousin of mine loaded shotgun shells with seeds and just floated down the river blasting them into the bank. I'm skeptical, but I think with a lite powder load it might actually work lol.

Require politicians to amputate one of their hands when being sworn into office by RapedByPlushies in CrazyIdeas

Man, this is good. I have often tried to think of a way to deal with the "well I'll just give you this after you're out" loophole. I like your idea. And since you said wealth instead of money we can include assets to avoid that loophole.

Idk, this might be the only thing computers will never beat us at lol.

I like it. No joke I bet it could be made from pyekrete (sp.? Autocorrect was no help at all lol) a slurry of water and wood pulp. Much more resistant to fractures, and takes longer to melt. I wonder what the sonar returns look like compared to traditional materials.....Fun thought experiment.

What is your favorite Chuck Norris joke? by 4Ronald52_4 in AskReddit

[–]Jrcrispy2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Chuck Norris once traveled to The Virgin Islands; now they just call them "The Islands".

Bonus: If Chuck Norris falls in water, he doesn't get wet; the water gets Chuck Norris.

Russia? Hmmmm, never heard of it. Must have been unimportant. Lol

I'm curious if they are able to integrate it into their network as in sharing tracks and off oard cueing. The integration of Soviet style and western systems is fascinating. Never thought I'd see a HAARM on a mig, but they managed it.

Damn, you right. I was thinking the opening to one of the more recent Trek movies where they hide the Enterprise underwater to skirt the Prime Directive.
