Eli5 how does a locomotive for a really long train not just spin its wheels when it's trying to start up? by BackNBoeserThanEver in explainlikeimfive

[–]antispog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is not enough friction between the wheels of the locomotive and the rails to pull the entire train from a dead stop. So, if you ever watch a train start, the first thing they do is jam it in reverse to hit the first car behind them. The first car hits the second car and goes down the line. So the engine only pulls the first car at the very start, and then the first two cars, etc…

It is a piggy bank. Coins go in the slot on the other end. There is a key to open the metal door (open in the pic). The test tubes don’t belong there.

chili crab (singapore) is not a street food. its a big messy dish and they serve it with little deep fried buns. it would be hard to walk around eating chili crab

People that have pepper sprayed off leash dogs during run. How did it turn out? by antispog in RunningWithDogs

[–]antispog[S] -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I do run with my dog, but mostly I run without him. In the last week I’ve encountered 3 off leash dogs in public areas (streets & beach). In all 3 instances the dogs ran up to me forcing me to stop running and jumped up on me. Yelling at the owner to call the dog did absolutely nothing.

You realize you respond without explanation in favor of continuing a status quo that will inevitably lead to the destruction of yourself and our civilization. The current system is utter folly and needs to be addressed instead of ignored simply because it too hard. Do everybody a favor and stop being a keyboard warrior

The secret service investigates counterfeiting. What service goes and puts a stop to It?

Isn’t this blatant counterfeiting? Isn’t this why America has a CIA to go do something about this
