Mmmm..... As long as the os treated it as separate from the filename. One of the reasons extensions exist is so that the name of the file doesn't encroach with the self-identifying-filetype/extension. If you put it at the front as a prefix, you would lose the ability to have EITHER names of files OR extensions as separatable and simultaneous ordering systems.

What's that, Lassie?

All he's done is ruin everything and make the world worse for everybody?

He's crashing the US economy?

He's doing hundreds of years worth of damage to the country?

Millions of innocent people's lives are ruined?

Millions of innocent people outside of the country will probably needlessly die because of him?

What's that, Lassie?

Huh? It almost sounds French.

Oh, guillotine.

GOOD DOG!

Yeah but then I can't tell what filetypes they are. Having the type directly in the name is an awesome convention. And theoretically, it prevents the os from having to read every file's contents. And it's good for not having to use thumbnails. So you can have more condensed file browsing. It's also better for proprietary filetypes and new things since the os doesn't need to know wtf something is.

Your logic reminds me of using nondescript variable names in programming. Yes, the system will probably know, but I'm the user, I'm the person this is all for. And it's good convention to have good naming convention. File extensions are nice to have and good convention.

Close. No such thing as "race". We're all the same species. The concept of race is what racism is and caused by.

How heavy is the flywheel?

Edit: oh I didn't see that this wasn't in a shitpost community.

To answer your question, there are a ton of variables at play here and it's quite complicated, ranging from friction and heat, to material deformation and dynamics. Assuming a bunch of stuff and putting the answer simply, not super far. Likely, you'd drop the car onto the surface, and there wouldn't be very much energy carried in the drivetrain and engine and stuff to start moving a VERY heavy vehicle (inertia). Depending on ratios and assumptions, somewhere between 0ft and maybe 15-20ft.

Assuming best case for forwards momentum though, you could have very heavy parts and a big turbo, and have the tires hit ground right as max rpm&mph reached, maximally creating friction the very second the throttle were lifted. That would give you peak all-kinds-of-stuff. If the vehicle were light enough, nothing went wrong, you had minimal realistic rolling friction, comically large flywheel, magically no engine compression slowdown what l whilst keeping engine inertia till stall, etc, I think you could get pretty far. Like maybe a half mile, maybe more, if keeping remotely in the bounds of reality but still having customized but feasible variables.

Now the real question is, what car are YOU imagining in your head? I think that can answer a lot of people's questions here, and control for a lot of variables that will otherwise vary WILDLY.

Edit3: ahhh edit2 was too long and chaotic the car became a train. Friction is real. I think the trick is to use magnets.

Imagine:

It's 72 degrees, 9am, blue skies, green trees, you're under just a bit of shade, there's a cool, fresh breeze, and ~~shitting~~ sitting on a bench like the one in the picture with your honey, both giggling while the sounds of a river directly underneath you sweep away and clean all the waste as birds chip and you both talk about something inane like how jjk is just naruto on adderall and what's going to be for breakfast.
