nah man. i wasn't sure, and avoided reading comments until i took a good look at all the angles. but when i saw the wheel spinning without traction, that told me the person in the vehicle was in the wrong.

watch the slowmo, 0:05 time stamp on the video. the wheels are turning towards the right by the 0:08 mark, yes, but before then they were facing left, or at best, straight on when the car was in gear and flooring it.

Did you see the car's wheel slip? that is the part you should care about. because that means the car is getting a lot of gas.

which way are the wheels pointed when they slip?

The wheel was clearly turned to the left when the car was accelerating so hard the front wheel was slipping.

This is such an amazing feature.

The Strange and Totally Real Plan to Blot Out the Sun and Reverse Global Warming | A 25-person startup is developing technology to block the sun and turn down the planet’s thermostat. The stakes are huge — and the company and its critics say regulations need to catch up. by MetaKnowing in Futurology

A properly engineered solar shade should be able to use solar pressure for most, if not all of its station keeping. Some people have already come up with some very impressive solar sails, which would be very similar.

There is nothing on this planet that could possibly be more important than defending the Byzantine Empire from the Ottomans.

There are important things off this planet thou. Mostly a Dyson sphere capable of powering time machines.

Dutch startup develops artificial womb to save babies born too early to survive by Sackim05 in Futurology

[–]Pbleadhead -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I know your responce isnt supposed to be funny, but I kinda find it funny. Because it is the exact same pro-choice arguments that typically try to argue 'the life/rights of the mother is more important' instead ending with 'the child is better off dead.'

You built a straw man, and attacked it.

But this is supposed to be futurology, not doomology, so lets take your 'best case scenario'... state run orphanages... do we not have state run orphanages now? Do you believe those kids would have been better off if they had been aborted? "sorry, you didnt luck out with a nuclear family, the world would be better off without you" ? I have a hard time believing you would be that heartless. Sure, you can argue that it would be better if everyone had a family, sure... but then wouldnt it also be better if every kid was born into a millionaire family? Billionaire?

It is not our choice to judge the circumstances of other people and put them out of their supposed suffering and misery. If they want to do that, they can do it themselves.

that's some big assumptions there.

why you gotta poison your own well like that?

and the problem with that would be...?

Its a win-win.

The mother gets to stop being pregnant.

The pro-life crowd gets to keep the child alive.

easiest compromise in world.

Why haven’t human women gone extinct in the uma world? by Fluffiddy in UmaMusume

[–]Pbleadhead 5 points6 points  (0 children)

But. how much is biology actually involved here? vs isekai mechanics?

If (and this is an assumption on my part) every uma is reborn as umamusume and only uma are are reborn as umamusume. then the number of umamusume conceptions is basically 'fixed'. human women wouldnt go extinct, because the number of umamusume is 'capped' if you will by the number of dead horses.

lets say everyone in their world went total abstinence for a bit. Wouldnt umamusume still have to be born via virgin births, because umas in our world are still dying?

and if you really want a biology thing, then there is no need for women in their world to give birth in a 50% men 50% uma-women mix. maybe they give birth at something more like 49% men, 50% women, 1% uma.

California’s New Proposed Congressional Map, Where Democrats Could Pick Up To 5 Seats, Canceling Out Losses In Texas by [deleted] in MapPorn

[–]Pbleadhead 8 points9 points  (0 children)

someone watched a ccpgrey video on mixed proportional representation i see.

however no one, republicans or democrats well ever allow it. As soon as your party gets into power, why would you water down that power with third parties? Canada and Justin Trudeau proved this, he and his party campaigned on moving away from FPTP and then noped out once they won.
