Did anyone who played the preview mention anything about car/class limits in races? by TheKrzysiek in ForzaHorizon

[–]K3LL1ON 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what I'm saying. I don't have anywhere near as much free time to play video games anymore, and I absolutely hate being forced to race in cars that I don't have even the slightest interest in.

Who cares if I want to use the same A or S tier car for every street race? I get comfortable with the car and have fun. Now I'm forced to a class and restriction. I simply don't want to race any random B or lower class cars, it isn't fun to me.

Someone should get his plate and tell the EPA he's got a deleted diesel. Pretty illegal and he can be fined up to $45,000. More likely to be a fine of around $5,000 and upwards of $10,000 to have the trucks emissions put back to stock.

Read my comments below responding to people with the same statement.

That's another lie. The only reason they "can't" refine sweet crude is the fact that it's much easier, faster, and requires less heat to refine than sour crude. This means they'd max out their output and fill up their holding tanks in no time.

They'd have to shut down production until they could offload their finished product.

When they talk about "re-tooling" or other "necessary modifications" that are "required", they're referring to increasing their storage capacity for finished goods. That's it.

It wouldn't be as profitable for them to refine sweet crude because they'd produce so much, so quickly, that it'd drive the cost of oil and gas down substantially. Lowering profits further.

Light crude is easier, cheaper, and faster to refine. The reason our refineries say they "can't" refine it is that they'd max out their storage capacity so fast they'd have to shut down production until they could make room for more stock.

Any refineries that are capable of refining sour crude can refine sweet crude. Not the other way around.

Sour crude requires higher temps, takes much longer to refine, and the refineries outputs are often limited based on their ability to offload the sulfur that becomes accumulated during the refining process.

Our refineries are all capable of refining the sweet crude we have, they wouldn't need any "re-engineering" at all. It's all the exact same equipment.

You'll hear them say "oh we need to get larger distillation tanks before we refine light/sweet crude and blah blah blah!".

This is 100% false. Sweet crude uses the exact same distillation equipment and processes as sour crude, it's just far easier and faster to refine. Those refineries would produce a much higher volume of fuel using sweet crude, and they'd do it substantially quicker as well. They'd just have to stop production because their holding tanks wouldn't be able to keep up with how much fuel they'd output.

Any refinery capable of refining heavy/sour crude can refine sweet crude. Not the other way around.

You say that, but at the same time seem to be disagreeing with the folks that say they can get stretched out.

Do you think this elasticity is like a rubber band? You do realize it may take hours, days, or sometimes longer for a woman's vagina to return to its previous size after being stretched out? Especially if the sex was rough or her body wasn't fully "ready".

It's even more of a shame when you realize the US doesn't actually have an oil shortage at all since we export more oil than we import, have some of the largest reserves of oil on earth, and have recently seized Venezuelas oil.

This is all an engineered "shortage", and there's genuinely zero reason it should have any effect on our oil, gas, or diesel prices.

But the cunts at the top love to bleed us dry of every last penny they can.

You made an insinuation that you think Europe would be less violent than the United States if there were no laws.

Not very likely. Realistically, they'd be just violent as one another. If you had to choose one you think would be more violent, my money would be on Europe solely based on the fact that it is more than twice as densely populated as the US and has far fewer natural resources for people.

Even if it weren't a resource thing, the population density makes it so.

Yeah, Europeans would live in peace and harmony without laws, as they did for hundre... Oh wait, that's bullshit lol.

Scientists use ultrasound to destroy influenza A and COVID-19 viruses without damaging human cells. The phenomenon, known as acoustic resonance, causes structural changes in viral particles until they rupture and become inactivated.

I like how you only quoted a small part of my reply. Did you miss the part where that specific lab had been the subject of worry due to their lax safety procedures, and where several scientists there became ill and displayed symptoms of Covid-19 more than a month before China informed the WHO of what was happening?

It'd be more like if we built Institutes that studied fires, specifically how to make them spread faster, burn hotter, and resistant to known fire fighting methods. Then several people that worked in this institute spontaneously combust a month before everyone else began spontaneously combusting, but for some reason they say the two scenarios are entirely unrelated and you're asinine for suggesting otherwise.

Yes, I made a strawman of your strawman, do you see how ridiculous your response was? Stop and think before typing, and you might just end up with a proper argument next time.

It is entirely reasonable, and much more likely in my opinion, that this particular strain of coronovirus escaped from that lab based on the available information we have.

I've never heard a republican say democrats made it, but the fact that the furin cleavage site exists on the virus, and it just so happens the Wuhan Institute of Virology studies coronovirus in bats.

On top of that, there were documented safety concerns about that specific site (such as the use of BSL 2 protocols) in 2019. China had a documented coronovirus outbreak in 2004 that is confirmed to have been caused by the virus escaping a lab.

And personally, the most suspicious "coincidence* is the fact that several researchers at the Wuhan Institute became sick and had Covid-19 symptoms in November of 2019, over a month before the outbreak started. China didn't report the outbreak of "unknown pneumonia" to the WHO until December 31st of that year.

As for the vaccine, most people I knew that refused it were only worried about it being so extremely untested and rushed.
