lol... |
ideally with a garden hose standing by incase any cells rocket off |
UPP cells: "To infinity, and beyond!" |
I’ll do it in a metal bin |
Who’s Naz? It sounds familiar |
I forgot rule 6 existed |
is encouraging people to buy sketchy yet usable shit part of that |
we have rules for everything. |
o |
@Moxie Depends how sketchy üòõ |
:thonk: |
But don't worry, you'd get multiple warnings before any action taken for all but the worst offenses on this server. |
Buy UPP |

j/k. |
it is time to teach y'all how to make a home made shock from all thread |
“This is your brain” |
“This is your brain on drugs” |
*ignites UPP battery* |
Go ahead. Get on. |
nooooo |
I’m not sure I see an issue |
Please do me an education |
it looks kinda bent |
and "home made" |
and "shock" |
in the same sentence |
scurs me |
Yeaa that rod is just a weee bit undersized for that |
fun fact, I literally decided to ride it until it broke with me jumping it over a curb, and proceeded to make another |
-_- |
~~and immediately took it off as soon as my actual shock came in~~ |
My degree in mechanical engineering has only made me more dangerous |
My lack of degree makes me dangerous |
I just throw shit together and hope for the best |
I trust randomers on discord with advice on safety critical parts of my bike |
Ignore me then |
Unless battery |
Or how to get hit by truck |
The transformation is complete |
Im currently working on a water treatment plant SCADA interface with no degree. The people of Hamilton should fear me >:) |
Ok but you have been drug tested right? its not like they'd let someone high and drunk work on life critical programming right? |
j/k, I know most programmers are high and/or drunk. |
cause when your not learning new stuff its the only way to deal with the tedium of day to day programming |
I love my job and I don’t need to be drunk/ high to do it lol |
I’m an early morning person so I always arrive before 8 am. Travel time is 1 hour so I would be awake by 6, set off at 7 and get there by 8 |
Nothing wrong with that |
If I live close by, my living costs shoot up |
That’s a silly lazy murican idea |
My commute involves mostly public transport and walking |
Ah look an Americanised article |
Where everyone drives and pays a lot |
Work pays for all travel costs |
The rail system in the U.K. was better before it was privatised |
train, tram, bus, walk |
all included with one greater manchester county card, about £110 per month |
(inb4 but that's annoying you have to switch between train and tram etc) |
this is what manc victoria train station looks like. Oh look it has multiple tram stops there too |
the trams come every 30 seconds, it's seamless |
if you're an early morning person like me, it's also a lot quieter |
Now introducing the great American infrastructure: i waited 90 min for a lyft yesterday and then the app just cancelled my request, and I'm in a fairly busy city |
A bus probably would have taken the same time |
*looks at 4minute lyft time * ya man those wait times. Brutal. |
I live 30 seconds from the office, before covid I was still late every day |
Who am I kidding, I'm still late everyday. I like sleeping |
^^ i resonate with this |
Although im 18 ish mins out |
1.7 hours by transit. 1hr if I use the bike for. Most of it and cheat the bridge with the train. New bike that can do the full round trip should get me down to about 40min |
In actual traffic time around here, I can usually get around twice as fast on emoto than by car |
If it's bad traffic, even more |
Several traffic lights lined up where cars just sit there unable to move. The infrastructure was not meant for the amount of cars on the road here |
Most arent |
let's take a look at human population charts |
now let's take a look at north american car sales |
see a problem? |
Oh man is my city ever car designed aha |
Hamilton is an industrial car city with wide main streets |
Edmonton is the same shit, Calgary, where the infrastructure? |
Almost everywhere in Canada is like this with some exceptions |
meanwhile los angeles 405 freeway |
the horror |
this is basically what I was in when I was trying to pick up my ex at LAX screaming in my car unable to do anything while she was going through customs |
I'll admit I personally don't like motorcycles for long distance travel to other cities or states, but for in-city and even in-county travel, having 1 car person is absolutely stupid |
if the world lived reasonable there'd be 1 car per household, max 2 |
the last house I lived at there were 4 cars in the household, 1 per person. |
My grandma's house has 2 people and one RV, one show truck, one toyota truck, and two SUVs. For *TWO PEOPLE* |
I guess it's nice they're not all on the road at once but damn. |
There are so many people scared of two-wheelers for some reason, despite being in los angeles where the weather is perfect year round aside from like 3 days out of the year of heavy rain |
like if you don't like motorcycles, get a scooter or something. Most people work nearby where they live. You don't like traffic but you take a car everywhere you go? Your fault |
We are car friendly, until the road crews come out and shut a 4 or 5 lane road down to 1... |
Then u get trucks the the size of intersections, moving into it when they obviously won't clear it by the time the light changes. Thus causing more blockage. |
@Trenavix Here in BC, they charge you FULL Insurance for every car you wanna drive. |
And a day pass on a vehicle, costs as much as 2 weeks insurance if you buy it by the 6~12 month period. (3 months is the shortest time you can get insurance for) |
2 wheels are cool until you realize there's people we can't trust to drive in the rain on 4 |
Miko: Ok but if everyone had to drive on 2 wheels for a portion of their life, the worst would darwin themselves and improve the roads for the rest of us |
Like those people who have been in 20 major car accidents already. |
In my defense, darwinism would solve like... 50 percent of the stuff we complain about |
and drive insurance rates through the roof -_- |
Sure, the insurance company can increase their rates to get some money back... |
but they also raise everyone ELSES rates, because with that person on the road, everyone else is more likely to get their vehicle totaled too |
