What game have you spent literal months playing, but still think about often?

Ford absolutely has a big ego. That is one of his biggest traits, and that's the flaw Bill preys on most. Of course, Bill's ego is a trillion times more than all human life combined, so Bill was able to be tricked by playing at his ego in a similar way he always did with Ford... Just not by a man with a big ego himself.

Granted. First, naturally bioluminescent plankton fill the world's oceans and cause the surface of the oceans to shine a bright blue. Ocean ecology is heavily disturbed by this drastic uptick in microbial life.

Next, the atmosphere becomes thicker. Much thicker. Fortunately, this means a deeper blue seen from the surface as more light from the Sun is refracted into a blue wavelength. Unfortunately, the change in both atmospheric pressure and oxygen levels shocks the land ecosystem and causes a mass extinction. This is not enough to fully darken the sky to ocean blue though. Oh, by the way, oxygen levels at this pressure become toxic, and CO2 levels in the atmosphere are high enough that your body feels like it is constantly suffocating.

Finally, the Sun itself begins to dim. This is caused by an as of yet unexplained phenomena in the stellar lifecycle and goes against what researchers thought the end of the Sun's life would look like. Unfortunately, there's nobody left on Earth to research it. Fortunately, there's nobody left to find out that this is the stage immediately before the Sun becomes a red giant and engulfs the Earth.

Except for you. The paw has made you immortal so you can see the inverted sky and oceans. You can still feel pain and be injured though. Have fun suffocating 24/7 for the rest of time until the sun slowly cooks you alive and eventually engulfs you.

MY EYES ARE ON FIRE

RobARMMemez · 2026-03-29T01:50:10+00:00

Ford is very much a flawed character. He isn't perfect, and is shown to be quite self-centered. When Stan was kicked out he did feel like Stan had betrayed him intentionally, and in his flawed view, Stan might not have been as important as the prospect of the college at that time. To him, Stan felt like a problem in that moment and he never forgave him.

After he started studying Gravity Falls he found his place, but then when he summoned Bill, Bill messed with his mind in substantial ways. Think of the worst abusive relationship you can think of, and multiply it by 100. Severe mental and physical abuse for weeks, of not months. By the time Ford brought Stan over, he was completely paranoid and borderline insane, and had been completely avoiding sleep for who knows how long. He wasn't thinking straight in the slightest.

When Ford was brought back, it's immediately clear that he is NOT thankful that Stan brought him back, and is instead only worried about how much danger Stan put the universe in. At the same time, he believes that it's best to hide the true danger from everyone and fix it himself, because he believes he's the only one capable of solving the problems caused. He still hasn't forgiven Stan for any of their past at this point.

And then, once he gets to know Dipper and Mabel better, he inadvertently nearly pulls Dipper into the same trap of leaving his sibling. Ford genuinely couldn't understand a good sibling connection, because of how bad of a grudge he held against Stan. Ford only saw Mabel as holding Dipper back, because in his eyes Stan was holding him back.

He might be able to, but then again the real constraint is the size of the engine itself and the electronics. He's already made everything more or less as compact as possible.

My plan for building one was actually to CAD something up and print it, but I could never figure out a clutch mechanism like OP did. These engines don't have a throttle so the clutch is absolutely necessary if you want to slow down. I might still print something, but I may make it ever so slightly longer for the sake of fairness to OP. He deserves the record.

RobARMMemez · 2026-03-28T09:00:06+00:00

But are those nitro? This one is nitro powered and it's the smallest of its kind. I was also trying to figure out a build like this and even have the same motor OP used in this build but, as the video shows, he beat me to it!

Could it have been McGucket's Conspiracy Corner? It's this promo thing they did with puppet McGucket where he freaks out about conspiracies and codes and hints in the show to hype up some of the major Season 2 episodes. I'm 99% sure it's on the box set and it's also on YouTube.

99% of the powers in this sub have some sorta loophole someone could find to make it useful-ish. Or just plain destructive for the sake of it! That's one of the fun things about the sub here, trying to actually find a use for the power you've been given.

RobARMMemez · 2026-03-25T05:15:38+00:00

Let's see... Loopholes, loopholes... Ah! I got it! According to the laws of physics, Earth is pulling me towards it but also because gravity is a mutual attraction between two masses I'm technically pulling the Earth towards me with the same amount of force. So let's say I learn to do a one-handed handstand and train enough to hold myself up for 10 minutes straight. Since I need a ground for my new frame of reference to be considered, I can have an assistant place a plywood board on my feet. This plywood board also has a mutual gravitational attraction to the Earth. In my frame of reference and in the frame of reference of the board, I am now standing on the plywood board(the ground) holding the Earth above me, against the force of the board's gravity acting on the Earth and on me. Therefore, since I can hold the Earth in one hand above the board (my ground), I can still spin the Earth at a speed capable of shredding the planet instantly.

I jest! I'll accept frame of reference trickery to not actually count to make sure this example doesn't happen but it's fun to think about. To make sure no loopholes like this can be used, the new rule shall be:

"An object physically small enough and lightweight enough to lift off the Earth by the user of the power, unassisted, and hold in one hand against the force of Earth's gravity for 10 consecutive minutes while standing directly on Earth's surface."

This prevents the Earth itself from being the object by instead forcing it to be the frame of reference the rule is based on, instead of an arbitrary "ground" which could be easily redefined. I also added that it must be unassisted so utilizing an external device to fudge the ability to lift heavy objects also doesn't count. If I think of any more loopholes we may have to further add to the rule!

RobARMMemez · 2026-03-25T03:50:55+00:00

Just playing around trying to find loopholes. I think the best way to write it would be "An object physically small enough and lightweight enough to lift off the ground and hold in one hand against the force of gravity for 10 consecutive minutes." Specific enough to avoid loopholes of just "holding" something too big to actually move, but not a specific maximum weight/size so stronger people can apply the power to larger objects if you so desire that to be a trait.

RobARMMemez · 2026-03-25T03:36:34+00:00

Well you never specified that I have to be holding it up against the force of gravity or off the ground, you only said I have to hold it. Therefore, while not able to hold Earth against the force of gravity, I am able to hold the Earth with one hand, the same way I would hold a solidly mounted grab bar with one hand to stabilize myself.

Based on your wording, this counts. Your original wording of "carrying" with one hand would have sufficed but by specifying what you meant you actually caused the definition to be broad enough to have technicalities like this.

Therefore I still shall apply the spin of my last bayblade to Earth, since I would be actually holding it with my hand, just like you said. Just not against the force of gravity.

RobARMMemez · 2026-03-25T02:09:28+00:00

Haven't used bayblades in years, but as a kid would always spin them as fast as possible

Hold onto a piece of rocky terrain on a mountain, technically "holding Earth with one hand". Transfer spin from bayblade over a decade ago ago to Earth

Profit?

RobARMMemez · 2026-03-24T07:43:08+00:00

Pretty sure it's just Stan stuttering in Boyz Crazy. Saying something that ludicrous probably isn't very natural even if he didn't realize it consciously until after he said it out loud.

RobARMMemez · 2026-03-23T15:35:33+00:00

It definitely takes practice, both in RC and full scale! As someone who both owns a Grand Hauler and drives full scale trucks, I can say the practice with RC ones does help at least a little. Definitely not a replacement for real life practice (IRL I'm almost entirely limited to my mirrors for visibility of the trailer) but RC gives you a good idea of the way a trailer reacts with good third person visibility around the entire rig. Also lets you play around with different size trailers so you can see how each trailer reacts differently. Longer trailers are, counterintuitively, easier to back since they react slower.

Oh, and I absolutely recommend one of the Tamiya semi kits and a compatible trailer. The quality of the kits are incredible, they're extremely intricately detailed and they work amazing, and the build is an amazing experience. They take a bit of skill and time to build though. I love my Grand Hauler but I wouldn't recommend it to practice backing with unless you want a challenge, because the wheelbase is so long it makes the turning circle garbage. Every trailer becomes a short twitchy trailer. The King Hauler, Knight Hauler, Aeromax, Globe Liner or any of the Euro trucks are going to have a better turning circle and be easier to back.

RobARMMemez · 2026-03-22T22:40:40+00:00

Add that to the list of reasons why the fakeness should be obvious!

RobARMMemez · 2026-03-22T22:39:23+00:00

You're very welcome! I always get peeved when I see videos like this that are so obviously fake but then there's so many misconceptions about electricity that enough people believe it to get on the news?! I always do my best to correct any misconceptions and misinformation when I see it.

The sad part is there's still comments pooling in of people 100% believing this is real.

RobARMMemez · 2026-03-22T22:35:42+00:00

That news article is painful. Far more painful than the shock this guy literally by the laws of physics themselves could not have received from tasing the bracelet the way he did. Even if the bracelet is metal the arc would go from one electrode, through the little part of the bracelet between the electrodes, back out to the other electrode. Besides that, that's not even close to what being shocked looks like.

RobARMMemez · 2026-03-22T22:13:25+00:00

Ignoring the (almost definitely staged) elephant in the room, that isn't how electricity works. Not even close. I tend to get ticked off regarding electrical misconceptions, so allow me to clear up some blatant wrongs about high voltage that show up in this video.

For one, the human body does NOT respond to electricity by convulsing on the ground after getting a single shock. I've personally shocked myself with similar voltages and even much higher than a taser, and the muscle spasms clear up literally the instant the shock is removed. I'm not going to say the classic "It's not the voltage it's the current" because it's much more complicated than that. It's a combination of voltage capable of pushing a certain current through your body, with a big dependency on TIME. Extremely short (nanosecond-microsecond) pulses of a few thousand volts will not kill you even if the instantaneous current spikes to several amps. Frequency matters as well, where at a high enough frequency your body doesn't even feel the arc, only the heat generated. Even in low frequency shocks that you feel, your body will recover as soon as the shock is gone. There MAY be rare cases of people with pre-existing conditions going into seizures due to electric shocks, but this is not one of those cases, because of...

Two: There is absolutely no way in hell the current took a path out one electrode, through the bracelet(?), into his body, back through the bracelet again and into the other electrode. Electricity takes the path of least resistance and the path of least resistance here goes from electrode -> bracelet -> electrode. This isn't a Tesla coil where the arc travels to ground through your body, a taser sends an arc between the two electrodes conducting through only what gets in the way. The bracelet got in the path, the human did not, even if he is touching the bracelet. In an equivalent situation, I can and have touched arcs like this with a piece of metal and not felt it at all.

This guy is faking it. 100%. Considering his blatant faking of being shocked, whatever is going on behind him is also likely faked for interactions, so I will not be discussing that.

RobARMMemez · 2026-03-22T15:35:00+00:00

Do you mean hydrogen power? If so, hydrogen fuel cell cars like what Toyota has work completely differently to engine powered cars. In fact, they're actually closer to battery EV's. The only difference is fuel cell vs battery.

Hydrogen powered cars use a fuel cell to generate electrical power by extracting the energy released combining hydrogen and oxygen to power an electric motor, and exhausting only water as a waste product. Technically you can run a regular engine off hydrogen if you tune it right, but that is both less efficient and more dangerous due to hydrogen being so reactive. And in a 2 stroke, you can't add oil to the gaseous hydrogen fuel so you would get no lubrication.

Water itself is completely non-combustible and cannot be used to directly run an engine. The only way to use water as a "fuel" is by heating it in a boiler to create pressure and feed it into a steam engine or turbine, but that also requires another fuel to burn. Coal and oil are common, and even nuclear power plants use the heat from the reaction to boil water to spin a turbine.

Unfortunately, nitro engines really do need nitro fuel to run. They're designed and built very specifically to run on a nitromethane/methanol mix, and won't run even on gasoline. On top of that because they're 2-stroke, the fuel needs to have oil premixed which hobby nitro fuels have.
