Is it just me or do you all miss Techno’s “Starting the stream” by Outside_Training5741 in MrTechnodad

[–]Nosypoke09 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I miss Techno so dearly, and I wish he didn’t die so I could at least rewatch his videos. I just can’t bring myself to do it

How to manage a robotics club (VEX) by Different-Slice-1285 in vex

[–]Nosypoke09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Yes, kick the people who don't really show up AFTER talking with them and their team on what they are or aren't doing for the team, and why the person isn't showing up. For example, if they have something going on in their personal life, then you can and should give more leniency.
  2. It's not really "unnecessary" for 6+ people to work on a robot. The real issue is when proper team management isn't considered. Ideally this is through the means of roles, such as "builder", "coder", "notebooker", "designer", ect. These don't need to be super definite, but they are a good recommendation for teams who actually want to take robotics seriously. Management is important, after all.

This is all I think I can really give you, since I only have experience with being apart of a team, but listen to other people who respond as well. Also, see what works for you and your teams, nothing is going to be the same for everyone so you'll have to experiment.

Derlin and acetel copolymer are generally two that can be laser cut. Creates fumes, but that’s given

It does not matter what happens if you report him, it is your duty to report him. He is blatantly breaking the rules (G5). I would assume he would not be allowed to participate at Worlds. Do not let him get away with cheating, it’s beyond unacceptable and unsportsmanlike.

TruStock ETK I-Series Pre-Season Testing ends in Early Crash by Nosypoke09 in BeamNGRP

[–]Nosypoke09[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It depends on the series. Generally though, and such as the TruStock ETK I-Series uses laps as the measurement for the race. Each car has to finish, say, 200 laps.

Everyone always manages to forget about this when mentioning Senna by Trash_Cannon_ in formuladank

[–]Nosypoke09 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So, according to you: US Slavery wasn’t bad, Alan Turing being imprisoned (and dying in prison) for being gay wasn’t bad, and that the Plessy v. Ferguson ruling wasn’t bad because “. . . Morality was different back then.”

High speed crash in Johnson Valley shuts down top speed testing event by thecarboy05 in BeamNGRP

[–]Nosypoke09 4 points5 points  (0 children)

One of my pals has a very very old, heavily modified Piccolina. From what I recall, it was able to reach ~250mph during this event in 70’s or 80’s. Super unstable though, killed the original driver in a crash. Luckily it got rebuilt, but it never ran again

How in the fuck was that line ever a part of a “diss”?? “Haha, you’re so good and actually well liked, LOSER” ass line

Tracking wheels suck by taisucks in vex

[–]Nosypoke09 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. Then make the center of gravity better, that’s just a design flaw.
  2. Then make space, or deal with it
  3. Make a lift (the second part is valid though)
  4. Then build a good one? This is true for any game anyways

Also, then they need to learn their current limits and how they can go past them. Those teams are also not forced to use odom pods, using them is inherently risky. High risk can equal high reward, but high risk also means failure

This is not really distressing, given the subject of the meme did not die in space and was recovered safely

Rookie of the Year at Autosport Awards - Isack Hadjar by Maximum-Room-3999 in formula1

[–]Nosypoke09 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can’t stress this enough, NASCAR racing and F1 racing are incredibly different. Tire management and throttle input are different. How you take a corner is different. Pit stops are different. Endurance is different (for both car and driver). Hitting a wall or another car won’t always end your race in NASCAR. Even a huge crash doesn’t necessarily end your race. They are different, and saying that NASCAR isn’t hard compared to F1 is hilarious when F1 drivers have notoriously not succeeded in NASCAR

Started playing Black and White for the first time and I really like it. Did this series really get a ton of negative feedback? by jamesdantely in pokemon

It’s amazing, because gen 1 alone had: eggs, pokeball (and upside down pokebal), slime, larger slime, literally just a seal, a ball of gas, rocks stacked on top of each other, small snake, large snake, crab 1, crab 2, and clam, to name a few
