  1. No personal home = no electric car. Well, unless I drop a long wire out of my window. XD And yes, true, mostly car is used for short distance commuting, around 25-30km. Mostly. Except when I do 600 kilometres or more in a single day once a year and sometimes 120 - 240km a day, tomorrow is just one of those rare days. And my really old gasoline car can do up to 860km on a single 60l tank, which can be refilled in a few minutes.

  2. Wait, wait, wait! Aren't some cellphone networks in 900-950MHz range? So this toy could feed rubbish in the air, thus serving as a jammer.

  3. For the next level of security, instead of making one very sophisticated device, I'd just pair up two sequence shifting ones working on different frequencies.

  4. It sort of would be easier to aim the actual weapon, because it would have initial speed and hard to sway out of trajectory, while your pitiful model started from supposedly standing position, but was actually swinging on a rope, and in a downwash of the helicopter. It's somewhat alike the difference between WWI bomb drop by hands with no aiming devices and WWII era dive bomber.

  5. Recommended soundtrack: Cannibal Corpse "Encased In Concrete"

  6. How is this a problem?! No resolutions = no fails, simple!

  7. Internet in itself does not promote stupidity, problem is - there is a lot of stuff on it, so almost anyone can find something. It helps to spread information, now even in Saudi Arabia Atheists are becoming aware, they are not the only ones, however, on the other hand crazy freaks, like anti-vaxers, flatearthers, creationinst, all kinds of conspiracy believers (q-anon, birthers, truthers, moon "hoax" believers etc) also can find like-minded (more like "de-minded") idiots, which may also strengthen their belief in being right and special, since there are other dummies like them too; before they were just village idiots likely to die alone, now they can find company and start circlejerking their so called ideas and doing "research" - watching one another's videos.

  8. It definitely lloses taste. Decades ago chicken soup tasted like chichen soup, now it's more "watery", likely because chickens that are bred now grow extremely fast and are bigger than hens used to be, and they are killed young, so in a way they are "bloated" and have no time to gain the specific taste.

  9. Mailing costs gonna be insane, I recently sent around 700 grams of sweets in a small box to a city in a neighbouring country, mere 1000km away, it cost me around 12 euros IIRC.

  10. I suspect, people like me, who have been on YouTube for around a dozen of years are in s better position - we know what can be found, if only you look for it, and algorithms know what we like (more or less), while newbies are greeted with "trends", which basically are loads of crap. My condolences to them!

  11. Another question then. What if we put such cart on a circular rails and make it turn a lever attached to a generator? Will it just keep accelerating? If so, could it be more effective than traditional wind turbines (I doubt that, since such car needs to avoid losses, and generator adds to resistance)?

  12. Basically, we need indoor waterfalls. There is market for it.
