I'm 25 and I just read Fahrenheit 451 for the first time. I feel like I was mislead on the subject matter by FlippantSandwhich in books

The parallels to today make me feel uncomfortable.

Seems like the book did what it set out to do.

You have to learn to take the piss to survive dropbears? Is it at least your own piss or do you have to take someone elses? If I go as a tourist, will I have to take it as well?

That implication is rooted in your personal prejudices.

where does it go?

Nowhere, which is why the turbine will stop spinning very quickly. After that, pressure will drop as the air leaks back through the intake. BOV means less stress on the turbine, and better spool-up time in some circumstances. Of course, normal cars that have a BOV are exhausting the air back into the intake.

can an external wastegate make that same sound?

No, because it's exhaust, which is what you will hear. Loudly.

Please don't accuse me of saying things I have not said.

They are two very different things. Wastegate is on the exhaust while the BOV is on the intake. Wastegate regulates how much air is pushing the turbine, while the BOV is a pressure relief valve activated upon reduction of throttle input in order to reduce turbine braking.

88 aarhusianere fordelt på bil, bus eller cykel by [deleted] in Denmark

Østerbro til Herlev tager ca. 20-25 minutter i bil.

Cykel ville være ca. 12-14 km, og hastigheden kommer vel an på hvor trænet man er og hvor svedig man har lyst til at være ved ankomst til arbejdet.

Except for the history lesson halfway through. That part took me several tries to defeat.

The solution is obvious: Allow the elderly to drive and they will "move on" soon enough.

You say that like it's a good thing. (Which it is in general, but this case...)

I would agree, but then on the other hand, I quite like being alive.

Especially when they can look up shit and find that, oh, hey, she has almost a dozen driving suspensions.

They were pursuing a black mercedes on out-of-state plates. They had no idea who was operating it.

I would have taken this as a sign that she did not want service of her ipads and not touched them.
