Photovoltaic doesn't require water. What are you talking about?

Those spy satellites are focused at the distance of earth. Hubble is focused at infinity or near-infinity.

You'd just get some really blurry images.

Also, buying the right book and then not using it at all

And in addition to all of that. That plane was more than capable of doing an engine out landing in areas you can see in his video. But within seconds of issues he desides to pull back on the stick (to stop the prop for drama) and decides to jump out. He does no troubleshooting or looking for an appropriate landing site even though several good locations can be seen.

Even if you had to crash land, that plane can go slow enough that it's a better option than jumping out. Skydiving into the wilderness isn't a great idea.

In addition to that. It's probably mocking these places where it asks if you want to leave a tip when you didn't see a single employee your entire visit. Or counter service/fast food etc.

Before long, it'll be all grill

GM already did that with their trains a long time ago. In the picture below you are looking at the front of the train.

I'd expect the crushed up bones of their enemies to be more of a Finnish thing. Which is also why I'm glad they're on our side.

So, as an example. The Honda CBR650R is $9,899.

You can absolutely abuse that for thousands of miles.

is there a risk of the battery going kaboom!!!

Is it really a risk if it's a guarantee?

If you smell a chemical smell while that's in your pocket you better drop your fucking pants and run, if you even get that much warning.

I intentionally made a swollen battery go off and that was fireworks level violent and it had a jet of pink flame that went on for quite a while.

If you’ve only known stairs your whole life, a lift would seem like a teleportation device.

I once talked to a guy on Reddit who had a version of this turned up to 11.

I don't remember the exact times so I'll guess but it'll get the point across.

He boarded the New York Subway at 8:42am September 11, 2001, and got off at 8:50am.

Dude was just having a normal day walking onto that train and the next station was in a totally different dimension.
