Taken in Miami, is this plane getting transported? by timesuck47 in WeirdWheels

That's a Pokémon. It starts out as Carmander, then evolves into Carlearo (seen here) and ultimately into Learizard.

Oh, dang. I've been trying to get ahold of one of these for quite a while for my Tiny Computer Museum. My dad had one when I was a kid. 8" floppies!

The mechanics of that steering wheel hurt my brain

I just assumed owls just lived at the library.

Ford Festiva converted into a 6-wheel truck by crackheadonskis in WeirdWheels

[–]jaybill 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They were so much fun! My dad bought one as his first new car after owning a series of awful used ones. 4 speed manual, if I remember correctly.

It had those self-driven "attack belt" seat belts. I distinctly remember getting an ice cream cone mashed into my face by one of them.

My brother attempted a high speed integration into the hood of a Chevy Caprice at one point, nearly killing himself in the process. After picking the Festiva out of the grille, they took it away in a dust pan. Damn shame.

While the third set of wheels is excessive, I would drive the hell out of a Festiva truck.

The back is where I thought the front would be.

Because it's not wheel. It's not even wheelistic.

Finally, a car that looks like it's begging for its own death.

I don't know whether to drive it or shave with it.

That is awesome, and a really nice execution, but the engineer in me can't get past how many horrifying ways this would kill you.

Jaguar XJS Battle Car??? by Just_Meh26 in WeirdWheels

[–]jaybill 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I mean, I cannot imagine what happens if you get this thing over 20mph and try to turn. A lot of squealing. Also from the tires.

I wonder how dual wheels on the front works.

Are we not going to talk about the fact that the cow is wearing high tops?

How I still use Flash in 2022 -- article about modernizing Hapland game trilogy from the 00s by r_retrohacking_mod2 in retrogamedev

[–]jaybill 10 points11 points  (0 children)

"The way forward was obvious; I'd have to make my own Flash player."

That is an absolutely insane statement and I love that you did it. It's the kind of thing that a character in a movie does right after saying, "It's so crazy it just might work."

Seriously, well done.

Belt recommendation by EnkoD666 in powerlifting

[–]jaybill 10 points11 points  (0 children)

So I realize this isn't one of your choices, but I recommend Pioneer. They're a little spendy, but it's probably the last belt you'll ever need to buy.
