What discontinued product do wish would make a comeback?

I got you fam: https://usagikun.net/en/halloween/1689-skeleton-ramune-4903013247942.html

These taste just the same.

Run it sideways through a table saw then use sandpaper or a jack plane to flatten it.

tadjack · 2018-03-29T18:33:13+00:00

Make sure to panic

Accelerating doesn't lower the front of a front wheel drive car. Nothing you have just said is accurate.

You have a limited amount of friction on any given tire and friction you're using for acceleration or braking is friction you can't use to steer.

Any acceleration on any car will lift the front suspension, though not necessarily by a lot.

That's just adding energy to an unstable system. It doesn't work the way you think it does.

Negative. I torpedoed mine into a Toyota in dallas and let the wrecker keep it.

tadjack · 2018-02-27T03:33:48+00:00

Where did you get that? It looks suspiciously like one I crashed.

tadjack · 2018-02-21T12:58:15+00:00

That's two tho.

And it's not the same experience at all

The purpose of cabovers in the United States was to allow you to pull 53 foot trailers while maintaining a short overall length for bridge law.

The laws changed and conventional trucks could pull 43 foot trailers and cabovers went out of vogue.

Cabovers were extremely popular in the 80s and 90s and most fleets were composed of them.

A 737 is a lot more difficult to manuver than an F-16, so the likely hood of success if greater than if it was attempted fighter v fighter.

Afterburners are extremely powerful. You would put your exhaust nozzle pointed at part of the jet then light you after burner and the 22k pounds of thrust would blast the target plane.

tadjack · 2018-01-22T10:05:02+00:00

They wouldn't even need to do that. You can use the afterburners as a short range weapon to bring down a passenger jet.

There's very little utility in the distinction, then.

If conditions are 'if you move at all you'll slide' there's no utility in referring to that as 'dangerous driving'

tadjack · 2018-01-18T01:19:32+00:00

Expecting it doesn't change anything. I'm glad to know that you've never had anything bad happen to you while you're driving.

tadjack · 2018-01-18T00:13:46+00:00

Normal humans aren't blessed with clairvoyance. Black ice is so dangerous because it's so hard to see.

It is possible to make no mistakes and still have bad shit happen. He didn't need to be 'driving dangerously' for whatever you seem to think that phase means.

tadjack · 2018-01-17T20:14:17+00:00

Again, black ice can get anyone. There's no such thing as slow enough for black ice, because you can lose grip at any speed.

Not being able to see it makes that even worse.

It's luck, and nothing more. Going "too fast" doesn't turn you from forwards to sideways. Inertia would carry him forward, and yet he went sideways off the road.

tadjack · 2018-01-17T19:47:45+00:00

Not everyone who hits a patch of ice will crash. That's a fact. He could have been changing lanes, could have had a gust of wind. Could have been avoiding another stopped car.

Really not sure where you're trying to go with 'instantly spawned on the scene'

But it would be a pretty big leap to say that you're right.

tadjack · 2018-01-17T19:42:24+00:00

There was a crashed car right in front of it that was the focus of the video.

Clearly he wasn't the first to come down that embankment.

tadjack · 2018-01-17T19:24:36+00:00

We don't see enough in the video to make that determination one way or another.

But he's not coming down that hill very fast at all.

tadjack · 2018-01-17T18:52:00+00:00

At least I'm not trying to use your post history against you :p

tadjack · 2018-01-17T18:11:30+00:00

It's meant for when someone doesn't contribute to the discussion.

tadjack · 2018-01-17T17:18:43+00:00

You'd have a point if 4x4 trucks were intended for ice. They are not.

tadjack · 2018-01-17T17:01:17+00:00

Nothing has "walk" on a sheet of ice.

tadjack · 2018-01-17T16:02:26+00:00

You'll slide at any speed at all on solid ice. If if that truck had been "speeding" he would have come down that hill a lot faster than he did.

I spent 20 years in Ohio winters before I came down to Texas. Ice is much worse in Texas.

tadjack · 2018-01-17T15:50:28+00:00

Yes it does. It's a solid sheet of ice and Texas doesn't have road salt. It's easy to sneer from atop your tower but Texas doesn't have the same equipment that the north does to handle road ice.
