Any car can be a flying car if you give it enough acceleration

Found the uncensored version

[-] Remotedeck@discuss.tchncs.de 28 points 4 hours ago

Better quality uncensored version

[-] passiveaggressivesonar@lemmy.world 10 points 6 hours ago

I know this is obvious but it boggles my mind how each square inch of that tire has almost 100lbs of force pushing on it

Just realizing now why hydraulics are so strong, a 6 inch squared piston at 100 psi is 600 pounds of force

[-] repungnant_canary@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago

If you consider that a car weighs hundreds of kilograms but its contact surface with ground is something like 100 squared centimetres, that pressure makes sense

[-] absGeekNZ@lemmy.nz 3 points 1 hour ago

I work with industrial hydraulics, the forces involved in big gear are truly insane.

Working pressures is around 270bar....on ~1.4m^2 of cylinders. Millions of kg of force.

Why the fuck is the word shit "censored". What is the point of obfuscating a few pixels yet the word is still visible

[-] 8000gnat@reddthat.com 8 points 6 hours ago

people are so consistently mad about this in memes now I'm going to start including it in all the memes I make

[-] Hossenfeffer@feddit.uk 1 points 38 minutes ago

F**king right they do.

[-] camr_on@lemmy.world 10 points 6 hours ago

Either OCR censoring or engagement bait for wherever it was originally

[-] webghost0101@sopuli.xyz 67 points 11 hours ago* (last edited 11 hours ago)

Its like you never heard of shπ.

[-] Clent@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 58 minutes ago

Pretty sure that's sh(AT-AT)

[-] Si_sierra 21 points 10 hours ago

That's Sean Connery referring to James Bond's profession

[-] four@lemmy.zip 5 points 11 hours ago
[-] Rubanski@lemm.ee 34 points 12 hours ago

Probably to dodge shitty social media OCR censoring

[-] LifeLemons@lemmy.ml 11 points 10 hours ago

Bro I found it of reddit years ago and has been sitting in my meme folder bunkers since then. I don't know who did it

[-] Thorry84@feddit.nl 40 points 13 hours ago

100psi is 6894 hPa for the freedom challenged among us.

[-] 9point6@lemmy.world 17 points 10 hours ago

I find bar more intuitive even if it's just hPa/1000

Nearly 7 bar is impressive for any tyres

[-] MentalEdge@sopuli.xyz 8 points 7 hours ago* (last edited 7 hours ago)

Any car tire.

For road bicycles 7 bar is just "normal", 8 and above isn't unheard of.

A guy once asked if I was crazy when I was pressurizing my hybrid bike to 6 bar, and I just pointed to the sidewall where the rating said 4.5-6.5 bar. The range is wide because the pressure you should use varies depending on what you weigh, and how you want to balance rolling resistance vs comfort.

And even then the safety margin on bike tires is more than double the max rating, so it's perfectly safe to go a full bar over if you want.

How much banana per square dishwasher in is that?

[-] Thorry84@feddit.nl 2 points 3 hours ago

If we take the banana to be 180 grams and the square dishwasher to be 0.36 square meter, that would come to about 140,000 bananas per square dishwasher.

[-] LordWiggle@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago

Nice math. Makes more sense then imperial, for sure. That's a lot of bananas, might as well go drive a banana car

I didn't know Torr was deprecated... For some reason that was always the number for STP I could remember in physics.

[-] stebo02@lemmy.dbzer0.com 14 points 11 hours ago

5171.49252 mmHg (millimeters of mercury)

why didn't you say that immediately??

[-] LifeLemons@lemmy.ml 4 points 10 hours ago

Can you give me a reading in burgers needed to achieve that pressure in my heart?

[-] EtherWhack@lemmy.world 5 points 11 hours ago

How about 689.4kPa?

[-] EmoDuck@sh.itjust.works 11 points 11 hours ago

Plot twist: That reading is in Bar

[-] Rentlar@lemmy.ca 49 points 16 hours ago

100 psi = 100 pirsent.

[-] ComradeMiao@lemmy.dbzer0.com 28 points 16 hours ago

Once my roommate punctured one of my tires and I went to a gas station and filled it up. Must have been one of my first times doing it ever. As I got back on the highway my car finally showed the pressure, it read 73….

[-] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 46 points 16 hours ago

Don't feel bad ... I drove down the road once in my old truck and started feeling a terrible shaking ... I drove for a while hoping it would go away but it got worse. I finally pulled over and had a look at front passenger side tire .... a bulge was sticking out of it like a giant bruise and once the tire stopped moving, the bulge grew ten sizes and as soon as I realized what it was, I turned away and the thing exploded!

Always check your tires.

[-] dingus@lemmy.world 5 points 6 hours ago

Omg glad you were ok! New fear unlocked!!

[-] ComradeMiao@lemmy.dbzer0.com 15 points 15 hours ago
[-] LordWiggle@lemmy.world 6 points 13 hours ago

He should test his tires with water first.

[-] Grass@sh.itjust.works 8 points 14 hours ago

meanwhile I'm sketched out by the tires on my uncles old road bike that say max 90 psi wheras mine say like 20 or so.

[-] gratux 21 points 13 hours ago

narrow tires need more pressure to maintain the same outward force, because the area is smaller.

[-] takeda@lemmy.world 5 points 13 hours ago

Ok so that's what the backup tire says 60psi.

When I first saw it, I thought that it has to be wrong and I'm looking at the wrong number.

[-] DesolateMood@lemm.ee 3 points 11 hours ago

When I saw it the first time, before I understood how it worked, I thought "surely this is just for long-term storage purposes and I would need to bleed some pressure if I wanted to drive on it"

[-] Threeme2189@sh.itjust.works 5 points 14 hours ago

Pffft amateur... I can easily pump my car tires up to 100 Bar.
