It’s easier to generate electricity during a zombie apocalypse than to pump up oil and refine it into gasoline. Let alone if you have to actually prospect for oil and drill an oil well.

So many ways to easily create and store energy using an alternator and some lead batteries. You can make a windmill, use a stream and a watermill, basically anything you can make rotate can be used as an energy source.

“Anyone can design a bridge that stands. It takes an engineer to design a bridge that barely stands.”

2.0 safety factor for a glass of water seems wasteful.

Engineer: the glass is twice as large as necessary.

Turn up the radio.

I have a similar hack for never getting a speeding ticket. There are these signs next to the road with large numbers on them. Turns out there is a glitch in speed cameras that results in them not being able to take your picture if you keep your speed below that number. You can tell your own speed on the big dial behind the steering wheel.

So when you see a sign, make sure the stick thing in the dial behind the wheel points to a lower number than was on the sign. boom, never get a speeding ticket ever again.

Or just use ‘person’ instead of ‘man’. Then it doesn’t matter if someone is a person or a woperson.

It’s weirder than that. The difference between orange and brown is context

I have a cheap USB to IDE adapter from Aliexpress that uses one of those. The fun part is that you can’t ever replace the cable because they should not be made and no reputable brand will ever sell one.

Just a concerned citizen exercising his 2nd amendment right trying to prevent a tyrannical government. Isn’t that exactly what the 2nd amendment is for?

Except for the UI.

During the Apollo program they had very limited computer capacity in the capsule and lander. Computers were huge machines back then and they had to fit one in a spaceship.

The Apollo computers used metric internally for all calculations. Anything shown to the astronauts however was in imperial, as metric was apparently too complicated for astronauts to comprehend. They had to waste precious computer capacity converting to imperial because even astronauts can’t handle anything else.

At least tobacco is an all natural plant-based alternative to vaping.

As if someone would lie on the internet.
