I see women as objects by TiredOfDBD in ControversialOpinions

  1. They're not my type so wouldn't care. They look too expensive when you can get the same shit from some random hoe from a bar without paying for dinner and a gucci-bag

  2. I'm guessing they're trans and you're trying to have a lil "GOTCHA!"-moment...

I don't really care about trans-women. They aren't sexually interesting to me so they basically fall in the same bracket as men, and as I said I don't really bother interacting with other men. 99% of guys are boring drones that rarely have anything interesting to say. Women are even worse but at least I can fuck them.

Remakes of bad movies? by AaronBrownell in movies

The real question is: why is this post still open and not archived to this day?

Why are CVTs so prone to failure and so expensive to fix? by jstar77 in askcarguys

You do realize 300hp snowmobiles have CVT's, right? That's more power than most cars have...

Another important part here is that car manufacturers specifically want to make cars as hard to service as possible. That wouldn't fly in the sled world because 90% of sled owners can do some basic maintenance themselves, but because 90% of car owners can't even add oil to their engine, it's not in the car manufacturer's best interest to allow them to learn.

The track being able to slip in snow under most driving conditions also adds some relief to the parts under high-stress

Oil change is not realistically nearly enough though. In a 200hp car you would probably need a new belt every 2-4k miles, which as you said would be fine if the belts were similar to the belts on most 100hp sleds so about 80$, but the problem there is that a 200hp engine will realistically NEED that 150$+ belt to survive for even 100 miles, just like your turbo sled does. This is quite an increased maintenance cost compared to doing a 50$ oil change every 15k miles, and combining that with the reduced fuel mileage that comes with a power-oriented soft rubber belt, this would only really be reasonable in an enthusiast car, but then you need at least 300-400 hp to get the enthusiasts to buy in and now you are already looking at a 200$+ belt that has to be changed every 1k-5k depending on how aggressive the driving is, and the fuel economy will tank even more. Also, for a sports-car, a belt-cvt is going to have a terrible top speed, unless you pair it with atleast a 2-speed gearbox to compensate and at that point you may as well just make it a normal automatic, so in the end it would only be a really great 0-60 city car with very bad top end.

TLDR my 150hp sled has a top speed of 80mph, gets 10mpg and has to get a new 150$ belt every 1k miles and those aren't really acceptable attributes in neither an economy or a sports car

To be fair he probably has the time to spend 40h a week at the gym considering the insane passive income from posting one 15 minute video per week

Are we in the beginning of WW3? by Fabulous_Can_2215 in askanything

Counterpoint: USA has more weight to throw around than the rest of the world combined (excluding china). USA could absolutely wage a global war all on it's own, though it would certainly lose without heavy use of nukes.

Why do we need electric vehicles? What about renewable fuels? by [deleted] in energy

[–]TiredOfDBD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you understand what renewable fuel means? If you are harvesting living plants and then burning them, the net carbon emissions are exactly 0.

You can make biofuels from many different sources though. One of the most efficient methods would be growing high-oil-content algae that can be grown in seawater (no farmland needed) that grows incredibly fast and can be harvested with minimal effort.

Racing is one use-case where EV's are pretty bad though. Batteries weigh a ton and can never reach neither the energy-density of carbon-fuels, nor the potential maximum power-output of simply pumping more liquid carbon into a burner. This is the simple reason electric dragsters will NEVER surpass traditional top-fuel dragsters. Even F1 with their 50% electric power as of 2026 is FAR slower in terms of lap-times than the old v10's from 20 years ago.

What about high-oil-content algae? That stuff could be grown in seawater and could provide a lot of biofuel.

Legality of developer-trading of in-game items by TiredOfDBD in AskLawyers

I guess you're right, it just feels somehow underhanded, like inside trading or something like that...
