I love that *PING* right before the truck explodes. It's just that split second "you're hosed" warning that you hear but can't do anything about.

Any elevator video binge has to include the talk about elevator hacking, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZUvGfuLlZus. Elevators are very safe if you're inside them. Being in the hoistway, above the cab, below the cab, or partially inside the cab are the potentially unsafe places to be if something goes wrong.

I can't believe I watched two hours about elevators on a Saturday night

Well, for one thing, most motorcycle gas holes lead right up to the brim of the tank (vs. having a pipe leading down to the tank like in a car), so if you don't consciously slow down near the end you'll splash gas everywhere.

Also you need to stick the pump in and then slowly withdraw it as it fills up :flaccid: because if you just ram it in and let the auto-shutoff do its thing you'll leave it a good quarter empty.

why don't they just put car gasoline tanks in motorcycles to solve this problem

My favorite story like this is the general who bullied a bunch of Area 51 employees into letting him fly the USs only MiG 23, ignored their advice about how it was super squirrelly at high speeds and crashed it into the Nevada desert at Mach 2.5. His death then had to be covered up because of the secrecy of the program.

quote:

At such speeds, with the wings fully swept back to 72°, the MiG had very limited pitch authority and was inclined to yaw and roll. Bond lost control,[nb 3] made a distress call ("I gotta get out of here") and was then killed in the ejection, when the slipstream broke his neck and shredded the canopy of his parachute. The aircraft crashed in the desert, diving in at a 60° angle[14] and impacting on what is now known as Jackass Flats

How apt.

Plutonium sticks around basically forever in your body, it's not good. It has a tendency to seek out your bones and stay there (bones don't change much so there isn't a lot of opportunity for it to come out) and when it does migrate out it hits the liver and most of it goes straight back to your bones. You should not ingest plutonium. You should especially not inhale it.

That said, it is unlikely that you would be peeing enough for it to be very detectable, beyond the first few weeks, unless you were really looking for it (they were looking for it).

At 6′ and 135 lb, you’d be underweight by the tiniest amount (18.3 v. 18.5 recommended BMI).

You’d be absolutely fine, excepting the condition that caused you to lose 35 lb in the first place. That’s not normal.


Also that. Maintaining fat takes energy. Over a month, a 90 lb difference on a 6′ man is worth at least 4 lb, so you wouldn’t have even gone underweight, all else equal.

I'm 6' and ~140lbs and I'm a loving twig but otherwise healthy. I want to gain some weight but I just don't have the appetite for it. How the hell do people get fat?

A really interesting presentation from a 'Fast responder' motocycle doctor for TT style bike racing. It's mostly images overlaying his talk but scary poo poo.

He also died in a 150mph crash

This was really fascinating. I've often wondered about emergency response at long courses, especially poo poo like motorcycle races around the Isle of Man or something where one little gently caress up sends you into some ancient stone wall at 150mph.

RIP Dr. Awesome who I only just learned about an hour ago.

Drop it in a glass or anything carbonated and poo poo will fly to the loving moon.

I did the thing where you tied a Mentos to a string and secured it in the cap with the string in the threads so that it goes off explosively when you knock the bottle over or throw it. That was a good bit of fun.

But gently caress, now I have to try that with little pouches of activated charcoal. If a Mentos will send a bottle rocketing 50' through the air I wonder wtf that would do.
