  1. The audio was great at normal talking volume, but sounded awful when he talked loudly.
  2. I don't think thats what he meant. Typically, journalists will give the subject a heads-up about the article to ask for comment before it goes live.
  3. they can't even double check that some imgur links they posted work or not. How absolutely embarrassing
  4. ? I'm confused by why you are telling me this. I can handle death. I never said I had an issue with death being brought up.
  5. Joking about someone's dead pet was extremely bad taste. Kinda ruined the video for me.
  6. It literally already exists for ebikes. This isn't fantasy. There are already a huge list of regulations each country has for cars, why pretend this would be the first? As if, the idea of every country having different regulations is unheard of. No, I'm not. They literally advertise the car driving dangerously in cities So, what, before ~2010, cars were effectively useless? I don't understand how you can lie to yourself like this. Cars world perfectly fine without 200+ hp in the past. uhh, that data is nearly 10 years old and clearly shows an increase in the US. NO THEY ARE NOT An older sedan, with its lower bumper and less horsepower, its much less likely to kill people than a modern SUV or truck with its taller bumper and higher horsepower. didn't you start out by saying that would never happen?
  7. Cars shouldn't be allowed to go more than ~5% higher than the fastest speed limit in the country its registered in. Does the Ford Ka encourage people to drive like an idiot? Any car with racing modes do. You can't argue against that, as its the entire point of those modes. It encourages people to drive badly, such as faster acceleration and faster cornering (see video of linus's driving). An old beater will do less damage and doesn't actively encourage and advertise dangerous behavior. e-bikes are regulated by law to not exceed ~26mph. Bicycles kill significantly fewer people than cars, yet, are regulated further than cars. Then we should take those cars away from drivers. Right, thats why we need to ban dangerous cars, so you will be less likely to be killed by one. I don't think all cars should be banned. ebikes are speed regulated, why not cars? Occasionally for work. ~15 year old kia sorento I use to transport my inventory between events. Its a work vehicle. I only get gas once every 2 or 3 months. Honestly terrifying. Why do regular people need such powerful vehicles? What good is it doing to society? I can show you the harm
  8. I like the notjustbikes video. His videos do well to summaries the dislike I've had for cars and driving from the past 10+ years.
  9. So how long until we get to see this car plow into others while going 90+mph, killing multiple people? Tell me again why we need these sporty cars with high speeds and sports modes on our public roads? I'm sure Linus will take no responsibility of course, for promoting these killer cars. <Removed by staff>
  10. Dangerous vehicles, ones that encourage dangerous driving (Any "sports/racing mode" equivilant features) or have dangerous designs (some SUVs and trucks with huge hoods). The goal is to reduce deaths. How many cyclists kill people vs how many cars kill people? Dogs kill a lot more people than cats (and even more than rabbits, hamsters, and other household pets.) Dogs are terrible pets, especially large and aggressive breeds. Yes, because we allow it to happen. I want to prevent it from happening, not simply punish people who do those things. Nothing wrong with small trucks. Its the oversized trucks that are the problem You literally can't even see children in front of you in these oversized vehicles. Every time I see these oversized vehicles, I worry about my 8-year old step daughter getting ran over by one of these vehicles in a parking lot because they literally don't see her. There is zero excuse for the existence of these vehicles. (4:25)
  11. yea? and? That hasn't stopped people from killing others with their cars. and yet, you are here with us today. Literally proving my point. Its avoidable; by banning these dangerous vehicles.
  12. "track mode" should be illegal on public roads. Frankly, any car labeled as a "sports" car should be illegal on public roads. There are bicyclists on the road and pedestrians next to the road. These cars are deadly.
  13. >lies about product missing >gives company bad review for being suspicious The ifixit review especially just felt so off to me. You lied about missing an item, but also upset that they were suspicious of you lying? I also worry that this will just encourage people to lie about missing items.
  14. I don't really see the difference. Making old tech look good visually isn't a bad thing I don't think. Its a lot of work to acquire these components and put them in a new, good looking, case.
  15. I would like to have heard how much the PC was actually worth, and what should happen with the old computers. $250 maybe?
  16. and other people's car? Do you check all those things when you enter someone else's car?
  17. What are the last 3 vehicles you took a ride in? Did you do extensive research into any of those vehicles first? Should I laugh at you if you die from a vehicle accident because you didn't look into the certification of the vehicle your uber driver was driving? How do you think your family would feel about that?
  18. yes they do. They committed no crimes. This is victim blaming. Toxic. So you are blaming people for not knowing something that you, yourself, didn't even know? Hypocrite.
  19. Did you know this before the sub imploded, or afterwards?
  20. I genuinely can not remember another time they laughed at innocent people dying. If they have, that doesn't make it ok.
  21. joking about innocent people dying is definitely yikes
  22. I use a 3rd party app because its multi-platform. Using an app exclusive to phones to talk to people is bizarre to me. the android story is I just send the file through discord. I never understood the purpose of airdrop. What exactly is the advantage of using these iphone exclusive features over discord?
  23. So do people really primarily communicate with people through texts? Most of these updates are weird to me since I'm just thinking... Why be excited about this? Do you not just use discord or another multi-platform messenger to talk to people? Texting is just a thing I do when meeting up with someone from craigslist.
