Er, wut?

It doesn’t matter what the object is, fluid dynamics always applies.

Whoa.

That’s some stuff right out of science fiction. Very cool.

Long and thin may not necessarily have any more drag. It depends on shape, how the airflow follows the body.

A long thin shape with an idealized nose will keep airflow smooth along it’s length, reducing drag.

A shorter shape with the same nose will create low-pressure, turbulent areas just behind the nose, inducing more drag because the air doesn’t flow smoothly along the body.

(I am not an engineer, these are presented simplistically, I’m sure more knowledgeable folks can explain it better).

Hahahaha, love the question!

Thanks OP, for posting something very interesting today.

Something without official moderation will be effectively moderated by a plurality: whatever single largest active bloc in a community will control it.

This is an intriguing idea, thanks for posting about it. It may end up functioning in ways we can’t predict, and that should be interesting.

I don’t think the driveshaft rotation would be in the thousands, as the rear diff is a 3:1 ratio, and the wheel diameter further effectively increases the ratio. Driveshafts are suprisingly slowly rotating parts.

But I still agree it would likely fail, as the weakest element in the drive train.

Good approach. Start with the momentum of the rotational masses, assume no suspension (to make the math simpler).

My guess, a few feet. There’s surprisingly little momentum in all those components compared to the mass of the vehicle.

Create a table in Libre Office, I’ll wait…

(Hint,the devs have flat out stated they will never add tables to Calc, as it’s wrong to do).

99% of Excel usage includes a table in the first, or second, sheet. Without tables a spreadsheet app is useless, in my opinion, regardless of how “wrong” it is (and I agree that it’s wrong).

Hahahaha, I snorted. Enjoy your upvote.

Haha, nicely done. I had to work harder and harder to read it.

So pooping improves your memory? 😁

Check out the apps Hermit and Native Alpha. They make web pages run like an app. I’ve only run into a couple sites where they don’t work right.

I vaguely recall a recent-ish article that an average web page is 30mb. That’s right, thirty megabytes.

It’s amazing how much faster web browsing becomes when I run PiHole and block most of it.

Suddenly the TV is pretty snappy, and all browsers feel so much smoother.

Well, virtualizatiin systems tend to run at root level, since they need to emulate things like processors (yea, that’s not the only way, but business-class virtualizatiin is done at the OS level).

I just say “post grezz sequel”. Sorry if it pisses people off, but it’s a stupid name, so I’m gonna say it the way I want.

I look forward to the day when all these lame-ass, insider naming conventions are looked down upon as the stupid things they are.

Wtf does “en jinx” or “engine X” have to do with it’s functionality?

I hate looking for an app on my phone that does a particular thing but hell if I can recall what the idiot developed called it.

Rules of English, the closest I’d come is n-jinx. You don’t pronounce letters individually, unless reciting the alphabet or something.

Unless you pronounce the letter “B” the same way you say it, like the bug that makes honey.

We don’t say “beenefits” or “bee eee an eee eef eye tee ess”

Wtf?

It’s Jason. If they wanted it pronounced that way, they should’ve spelled it differently…

Like GIF

Sorry, no, at least one could argue GIF. JSON is a single freakin’ vowel short of a common male name.

Morons.

Hahahahaha, thanks for the chuckle, that’s perfect!

If it’s in Forbes, it makes me wonder what new agenda is being pushed and by who.
