Re: WTF - Just Odd Stuff

I watch these videos sometimes, and then we got to this part and I thought, ah, another quality LG product....NOT! Oh don't get me wrong, these guys are amazing at what they can do with what to most of the western world would be junk, but LG? I don't think so!

Re: The Dash Cam Thread

April is here, along with all goodies, at least one nice event, and astronomical event, and you would think wheels coming off cars would be a rare event and not some seemingly common occurrence....but alas no, wheel nuts seem to be losing their grip a lot these days.

Re: Climate Change

Interesting video here in the power situation in the US, one section in particular regarding nuclear power plants. Only 3 new nuclear power plants have come online since 1998, and currently there are no nuclear power plants under construction in the entire US. Doesn't bode well for Dutton and his ...

Re: Aus Election 2025

Dutton again, straight out of the Trump playbook:

“Forget about what being told by the ABC and The Guardian, (and) the other hate media. Forget about that.

Does he not understand this sort of thing is part of the reason he is failing?

As far as I can see Dutton has been campaigning on very ...

Re: Donald Trump

Oh dear, so what a revelation after decades of being obviously led up the garden path in a manner the entire world could plainly see, except him, is he also going to get rid of the Russian sympathizers and agents in his administration?

Re: Donald Trump

Well we got our answer, what is Russia giving the US in return for the abject surrender of all Ukraine and US power, well the answer is, unsurprisingly, a Trump Tower in Moscow!

He is basically surrendering the world to Russia in exchange for building a fucking skyscraper in Moscow!

Re: Electric + Human-Powered Vehicles

A long video here on the different battery technology advances CATL is bringing to the market this year. Strangely enough the hype over solid state batteries has died down and you hardly hear a mention of them at all these days, I suspect that's because they are still 2 years away and people, well ...

Re: Donald Trump
