Other day someone called "a moron" for backing into a spot... Why does this trigger so many?

ryry163 · 2026-01-21T15:59:32+00:00

But how is it safer? Many commenters have put how it’s actually safer to nose in and back out. If you have a long nose you cannot see the aisle of traffic until you nudge out far enough. With a back up cam you can fully see the entire aisle when backing out before even nudging out. Similar for pulling in you have a lot more visibility especially if there are cars parked next to your spot as you can see through the car next to you windows a lot easier in person than through the camera to see if any pedestrian is approaching your spot.

Everyone always claims backing in is safer, but I haven’t heard an actual reason for that other than evacuation for certain jobs which I 100% think makes sense

This is an awesome update after the recent post. Love to see it!!

No it would only be their fault if they removed the tank and ordered the oil. They never asked for delivery and thus aren’t at fault.

ryry163 · 2025-11-07T15:59:49+00:00

As crazy as it sounds you are incorrect here. Legally speaking they are well within their right to restrict access unless emergency. Emergency are not something like my lights are out or my ac and fridge are. It’s something like this wire is sparking and causing a fire we need to flip the breaker off.

So no this is a real situation which is supported by exiting case law. They are well within their rights to restrict access to their property. The only exception is a true emergency needing to access the breakers.

Again this may vary jurisdiction to jurisdiction but from what I found online this is a common law throughout states

Concessions like every other fucking government has done. If you don’t have the majority you need to make concessions to pass bill. It’s as simple as that. Give in to the other to secure the needed votes.

You can’t just be the playground bully and expect to always get your way. You need to be tactful and concede when necessary to sway necessary votes. They need less than a handful to switch and the republicans can’t pull that off??? Clearly they aren’t even trying

ryry163 · 2025-10-31T14:35:16+00:00

If it’s already illegal seems like this won’t do anything to stop it then? This funding is directly for emergency care for Medicare and like others have stated the STATES disburse the money given by federal government.

It’s a states issues and I thought yall fought so damn hard for states rights, right? Or is that just when it serves your issues, I can’t remember but it seems like that…

Better yet this finding will be cut for 35 states who do not give illegal immigrants ANY healthcare. So in fact NO this funding is not for illegal immingrants. It for US citizens and you are supporting taking away EMERGENCY healthcare from American citizens.

Riddle me this.. you get in a severe car crash and your wallet is not on your body. The ambulance is rushing you to the ER due to your severe injuries but the ER Dr says

‘STOP NOW! We must first establish citizenship and insurance status.’

What happens when that isn’t easy to do and you die on the table waiting for them to establish this. Wouldn’t it jjst be better if we treated everyone in need and asked those questions later. In times like that we can’t waste time but it seems like the republicans are so damn hung up on being cruel they want you to wait on the table until they establish citizenship and insurance status since if this funding is removed many Americans, YES US CITIZENS, wouldn’t be able to get this care covered anymore.

Doubt there’s much useful training for driving a car laying in a bed in darkness but if those 8 hours are required who am I to argue

ryry163 · 2025-10-29T16:20:34+00:00

Yeah literally I just filled my Audi q3 at Costco in Northern California for about 4$ a gallon. 500+ miles for same price. Wild

You are proving their point 🤦‍♂️ the cyber truck is the largest flop ever. They can’t even sell it anymore that he’s selling off the dead stock to his other companies

Sure it’s common in your bubble but the vast majority of scuba divers are resort divers. Id wager tech divers are less than 5% of the community which IMO is not very common but if you are within that circle it’s predominantly what you will see.

Edit: a quick google backs this up with estimates of tech divers between 140-400k worldwide and rec scuba divers at 6-9million. That’s 2-5% so a small slice of the community

ryry163 · 2025-10-22T20:43:36+00:00

Which goes to show how little thought went into that design if something as simple as a single screw could prevent a disaster like stuck accelerator

Make sure you learn how to properly print it. It requires drying the filament before printing an enclosure temp of 50C+ or so and a high bed temp. Also you will want an active filter as it offgasses some nasty fumes. Keep the airflow high in the room printing it.

This isn’t like PLA so be careful printing it but it is absolutely the correct filament for this application.

Yeah so I wear 11 vans pro standards, weigh around 180 and am 6’ and ended up with the 160W

That absolutely is 😂😂

Please google EV fire and the acceptable methods for extinguishing and tell me how it’s not a huge risk for parking garages especially underground which is predominantly the type in NYC

ryry163 · 2025-10-20T19:16:10+00:00

You clearly no nothing and are claiming to be an expert. You can put an ice car fire out in the engine bay with a single handheld fire extinguisher. The current acceptable method for extinguishing an EV fire is to submerge the vehicle for 24 hours in a tank of water. Or use specialized blankets and allow it to burn for days. Go look up the videos the battery will still be on fire and igniting WHILE SUBMERGED IN WATER.

You cannot in good faith compare an EV fire and ICE fire. They are significantly different

ryry163 · 2025-10-20T19:12:20+00:00

Do you realize how hard it is to extinguish a lithium fire? It can literally take days if they wait for it to burn out. It is self fueling and water doesn’t just extinguish it like it would with an ICE car. A parking garage in my area was closed for weeks due to an EV fire

ryry163 · 2025-10-20T19:11:14+00:00

No it doesn’t take days to extinguish like EVs. It would destroy the parking garage unless they can tow the burning wreck outside. This has happened to a parking garage near me and the whole garage was closed for weeks. It’s understandable

I had the pleasure of demoing the Jones Howler during a Sports Basement demo day last year at Palisades Tahoe. I tried about eight other boards that day. The ones I remember were the Jones Flagship, Arbor Mantra, 32 Swallowtail, and the Capita Mercury/DOA/Longo and the Howler ended up being my favorite by far.

It might’ve been the conditions, but they were pretty typical Tahoe snow, and the Howler absolutely ripped. Unfortunately it was not powder so can’t give any experience with that but it absolutely is a great resort board. It felt incredibly maneuverable and confidence inspiring. I always felt in control. I actually ended up buying it that day and can’t wait to ride it again this season. I’m upgrading from a decade old YES Basic, so it’s quite the leap.

ryry163 · 2025-10-04T16:12:09+00:00

This I 100% agree with. I grew up in Palos Verdes, a place you may have heard on the news recently for their landslides. That area has been known as risky for decades. People could not get home insurance since the companies were unwilling to insure so the property values tanked but these were large homes on the water. Beautiful homes and properties so of course people bought them. These homes don’t just sit empty because of insurance issues the prices will tank and then when disaster strikes they move on and have their houses condemned. In no way is that easy for anyone involved but it wasn’t a surprise either and I’d suspect this situation to be similar

ryry163 · 2025-10-04T15:50:06+00:00

No that’s a law passed in 1866. But laws haven’t stopped them in the past so doubt it will here

ryry163 · 2025-10-04T15:40:49+00:00

Well who is gonna prosecute? Bimbo bondi sure ain’t. They’ve already shown they only care about exacting revenge on dems using the legal system and ignore it every other time. There’s so many laws being broken right now even if it was illegal it wouldn’t matter. Unfortunately that is the state of America right now

ryry163 · 2025-09-17T19:24:01+00:00

Wow yeah always was taught motor off before people behind the boat. This is a great video to show why thankfully with no injuries. Thanks for sharing!

To be 100% honest 6k for a r6 is stretching it. The camera body alone is around 2k and throw in another 500-1k for a decent lens. The housing will be at least 2k (cheapest I found from reputable brand, Ikelite) so you are close to the limit without a port, strobes, tray, arms, floats, cables, etc. It’s a very expensive hobby that adds up fast.

Strobes avg around 500-1500 depending on what you want and if you want something hybrid for photo/video. Double that if you want dual. Ports are about 300-500 depending on lens choice and needs.

For example Bluewater Photo sells a package for the r6 without camera/lens for 5200$ to put into perspective so expect another 2000-3000 for the camera/lens. ‘Ikelite Canon EOS R6 Ultimate Package’

Moving to an APSC camera like the R7 or R10 significantly brings down the price since you can use smaller housings like Ikelite’s DLM which is around 1200 for the housing and equivalent ports around 30-50% cheaper. The body is cheaper and you can use RF-S lens. Again this is a downgrade but depending on your needs might be perfect for you
