starkebn posted:remember though, just because the camera can't deal with the level of light outside the car, it doesn't mean this is how the driver / navi are seeing it No, they probably have a pretty good view of the solid walls of trees lining the narrow (snow covered?) road they're blasting down.

Soulex posted:There is so little information outside of the car via imagery that I couldn't tell you what season it is. It's way to over exposed outside.. I'm only guessing snow because it looks like pine trees with snow on them. Unless the trees have very wet leaves going all the way down, I'm not sure they would reflect that much light.

5er posted:CGI or not, there were some blatant camera transitions. Yeah, why would they bother with the intentionally lovely camera work every so often if they did it on a computer? I've only watched it on mobile so I can't tell if it's CGI or not.

Blue Footed Booby posted:He's saying the dominoes and so forth were composited into an actual video recorded by a guy walking around the house. There's absolutely no reason to CGI literally every element of a video like that. I get that people often use handheld etc to disguise CGI, I meant stuff like "let me stop focusing on the action and instead point at a wall for a full second to disguise a still visible cut" that they did pretty frequently. I just can't believe that it would be less effort or time consuming to render a rube goldberg machine instead of setting up a bunch of ~30 second segments and then editing them together (and using a little CG to work the transitions a bit).

Jedit posted:Who did he hit with it? I have nothing against places without hockey teams, but I lived in Atlanta for too long listening to people justifying letting the Thrashers move away with "Its too hot for hockey". Here's a Bad rear end Picture I stole from the Space Thread: Powered Descent posted:In addition to the ones already mentioned, STS-51F did an Abort To Orbit (ATO) due to sensor failures in the main engines, and ended up in a slightly lower orbit than planned. But since all the actual mission objectives only required them to be "in space" and not "in this particular orbit", everything after that went well. In a similar vein, STS-93 had a number of little things go wrong with the main engines during ascent (any one of which might easily have gotten not-so-little and ruined their whole day), again resulting in a slightly lower orbit than intended.

Am I allowed to think war is awful but that some of the machines built to facilitate war have their own beauty? If you can't stand fighter jets though, here is a tech demonstrator built out of some old crap nobody was using:

KFBR392 posted:When you think about war machines being awesome and rad and cool and beautiful, think about all the time and effort spent making them that way that could have gone somewhere else. So the military is necessary but money shouldn't be spent on it nor should sleek machinery be eye-catching? Race cars look cool because the high performance required of them leads to visually pleasing designs. Fighter jets look cool because the high performance required of them leads to visually pleasing designs. Except for jet fighters and the SR-71 Blackbird (which was operated by the military but was armed only with a camera), airplanes don't need to be particularly fast or maneuverable so they tend to have more boring shapes to maximize cargo capacity and fuel economy. Now, if this was the cool stories thread I might post about the Berlin Airlift; where Soviets tried to use a blockade to keep the (other) Allies from sending food/supplies into West Berlin by rail/road so the Allies just flew constant cargo shipments to feed the West Berlin population. ...but this is the Bad rear end Pictures thread and a bunch of cargo planes being unloaded at an airport:  doesn't look as cool as a spy plane designed to outrun the missiles that shot down Gary Powers:

jamal posted:So if you're not pushing the button on the shifter, plus holding the brake, it will go into neutral but not park? This is also required for most automatic shifters (well, the brake might not be if you don't mind the awful sound of shifting a moving car into park). That design is dumb and I'm glad its being replaced, but I'm going to wait until they've made a more comprehensive statement before I blame the shifter my very mechanically illiterate mother regularly uses to successfully park on an incline. Its a dumb shifter, but it really isn't that hard to use.

doverhog posted:Pencils weren't used either, they used wax markers (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grease_pencil) sharpened by pulling a string. Also, the anecdote of Buzz resetting a circuit breaker with a space pen is inaccurate. He used a marker because he wanted something that wasn't conductive to jam into a broken electrical device (space pens are all metal because they wanted as few flammable objects on board after Apollo 1).

Jesus, didn't Top Gear have a bunch of trouble back in the day trying to get someone to parachute into the back seat of a car? At least with the motorcycle you don't have to worry about dropping into the seat, but the car doesn't have the problem of hitting at the wrong speed/angle and knocking the bike over.

Azathoth Prime posted:It is utterly badass, but it was not 115 feet. There is no official measurement of the height for that particular wave on that day (Jan 18, 2018). The official world record for largest wave ever surfed sits at 80 feet. There are unverified (but credible) claims of people surfing 100 foot waves. Nobody credible is claiming anything like 115 feet. I can only assume this is standard social media exaggeration for likes. Does this also have anything to do with the Hawaiian system of measuring waves from the back and yields a much smaller height than most people would expect looking at the face?
