I suggest viewing Why Syndrome is an Incredible Villain by Rockotar. It's an interesting analysis of Syndrome and how his abilities, motivations, actions etc. were a product of jealousy, hatred and revenge obsession that in some ways drove him to become what he came to loathe the most… and all of it started from something that Mr.Incredible barely even remembers as a dismissible annoyance.

what would probably be best is a straight recessed slot, since the force would be perfectly radial and basically impossible to strip, and the slot shape would keep the screw on the driver. the more corners you add (triangle, robertson, hex, torx) the less strong they become
>https://www.albanycountyfasteners.com/blog/what-is-pozidriv-is-it-different-from-phillips/
this repeats my point:
>The Torx, or Star, drive style vastly changes the design of the drive recess. Due to the star having six points of contact (6-Lobe), the screw uses a truly radial force rather than an axial force. Phillips and Pozidriv screws use an axial force to drive the screw which is not as effective and is more likely to cause cam-out. For manual applications, Torx screws are quickly becoming the most popular choice.

 No.41613

>>41612
The problem with the Torx is that unlike other ones trying to improve radial force, it's insert is so fucking fragile that it can't be used for anything heavy duty, and even with light use it wears out too easily, I cannot count the number of times I've had to repair doors or computers where the fucking things have their contact points grind into uselessness if you look at them wrong.

 No.41615

>>41614
When repairing a computer they don't come with spare screws, and if you're replacing a splintered door-frame and the screw thread is fine, then they should be re-usable, but when you have to be hyper-gentle with the head, it makes everything harder, and screwing them in is harder too, an overall pain in the ass, hence my loathing for them.
Also Phillips, flathead and even hex screws are much more common in most areas, and so the appropriate screwdrivers are more common meaning I need to go out of my way to retrieve a specific screw-driver head just for this one type, which is an additional annoyance.

 No.41616

sounds like typical M3 screws in tapped holes. I don't see how you can fuck those up

PAUL ATREIDES flew his diesel ornithopter up to Sietch Tabr. “Damn I love being the Lisan al Gaib” he said, punching an imperial sardukar as he climbed out. “I think we should return Dune to the Harkonnens” said Chani. “Shut up libtard” came the reply from behind a cloud of spice melange. “Oh please Paul!” Said the shrewish atheist, “Northern Arrakis is the ancestral land of the Fremen people, where they have lived in an entirely irreligious utopia for thousands of years. They don’t even know what holy war is.”

“Sounds like WOKE NONSENSE to me!” guffawed Paul, his very presence introducing precious water into the ecosystem as he cracked a Miller High Life. “This is MAGA (Make Arrakis Green Again) country now bitch” he proclaimed before shooting interred Harkonnen prisoners with an unregistered lasgun. The other camp inmates scattered in terror, sheltering their non-binary bald pleasure slaves from the beams and slurs that now ripped through the sand dunes. “Kek” said Paul, stuffing a family atomic into the bomb bay of the ornithopter. “This is based.

For context about the LARC LX, pic related, it weighed 97 tons and could carry 100 tons of cargo. Each wheel had its own engine. The soldiers on the photograph are adult men for a sense of scale. It was primarily a beach lander and they were retired from service in 2001. Truly some WH40K shit, especially considering its open-top design; a single 152mm shell, surface-surface missile or air-surface missile and you've got 200 men or a couple armored vehicles down.

>Why didn’t the Soviets un-suppress suppressed [electric car] technology?
Path dependency and opportunity cost, the world had already developed more expertise in gasoline cars by the time the USSR ventured seriously into civilian automotives. The cost of developing a "lost" technology from nothing again is greater than adopting an already working solution. Further more, developing a new technology means the initial products are typically inferior and it takes even more investment and time before new tech becomes superior to old tech. The USSR had limited resources so it went with the low-risk known solution.
Even then the USSR did experiment and pioneer many Hydrogen-Cell and Electric vehicles, but they were limited, primarily because they were still being developed to be more effective and mass-producible when the USSR fell. Besides Public Transport was much more available there. >>6035

so i finished watching the entire series and something made me feel uneasy. starting with episode 6 and going into episode 7 the show takes a very political turn. a turn against capitalism and an actual, intended or not, positive portray of communism. almost directly actually. at least, it takes the blame completely away from communism, portray some of the communist in the show as actually good people fighting against the evils of capitalism. at least those to be heavily hinted at as being communist. which made me very delighted but then it dawned to me, this is a amazon prime production based off a video game from bethesda who is now owned by microsoft. three massive, very capitalist, corporations that have shown time again to be very for profit.

but even if we remove the debate whether or not communist being portrayed as good did happen in the show, the show itself was extremely critical of capitalism and that makes me wonder why these billion dollar corporations that are the epitome of why capitalism is bad, be telling its viewers, the very nature of amazon, bethesda, and microsft, everything they stand for, the people who made the show and games, are bad? why would they want their consumers to hate the very thing that allows these elites, these companies, to exist in the first place?

is it some sort of chess move i don't understand? have we reached a state where capitalism could very well nuke the planet and people won't care so these companies don't care if criticism about them is made? or more wishful thinking, they think this will spare them from the revolution? i don't understand their move here. i don't expect capitalist companies to allow people to hate them.

The creators nuked the west coast so they could have a wasteland playground for their marquee factions to fight in. My guess is that the writers just didn't know enough about Fallout to write around the existing faction dynamics on the west coast.
>I will say that it was very, very early in the decision [making process], once we decided to put the show in L.A. That was the very next thought, because it's a post-apocalyptic show. And if you study the Western, which has a lot in common with the post-apocalyptic genre, ‘civilisation is not around’ is a big part of it.

The justification is implied in the sense that the industry capable of producing the media no longer exists, but they still have all the old stuff sitting around. The original creators don't seem to have a problem with the radio since they included it in New Vegas. They even parodied the LARPy aspects of FO3 with The Kings, while also making that actually make some sense, since they're basically a cargo cult who thought Elvis was a religious figure.

another thing one of the videos bring up is the use of bottle caps on the east coast. within FO1/2 and even FO:T caps aren't the only currency in use. they're sometimes called Hub bucks in FO1, and they're useless in FO2, having been supplanted by NCR dollars (except the different types of scrip used in Redding). you can even find a crashed Nuka Cola truck with thousands of worthless caps in a random encounter in FO2. in FO:T the Brotherhood has its own scrip, while the surrounding wasteland uses ring pulls. there's only one merchant in FO:T that exchanges scrip for RPs I think
it would have been far more interesting for Bethesda to pick something else as the medium of exchange other than caps

Muay Thai or Kickboxing. Modern Judo has often stopped teaching practically, instead going for showy hackfu type throws and grapples, BJJ is effective depending on the teacher. Muay Thai and KB are simple and effective. TKD is a good base to work off of too, but you want Koreans teaching you, all the American schools I've seen play around too much.

Katana. Well you always sheath the sword face up but upu hold it face down obvs. The strikes are pretty standard and straight forward. Remember to shske the blood before re sheathing.

Nunchucks: the bruce lee type shit is easier than it looks. Passing it hand to hand is a simple move, just practice it until you can change it fast like Bruce.

Does anyone else here like to spend time reading archives of 4chan and 8chan or other imageboards?
It's really interesting to me.

My main method to discover new music is searching for people who trash my favorite artists in the /mu/ archives. Sometimes i also stumble on good charts that were last reposted 7 years ago.

I rarely go through them for fun, but they're an excellent resource. I've found amazing and important things on desuarchive that nowhere else mentions and which fell off the board long ago.
I've even had surprising results searching my own aliases.

Warning : There's currently CP in the "recent images" on 7chan right now.
