I absolutely hate places with “background” music that isn’t in the background.

It sounds like diving at that depth is already very dangerous, and that’s before you add going into a cave into the mix.

It will be very interesting to read any incident report that comes out.

That’s a very interesting way to view the world.

Not really, no. They measure different but related things, torque isn’t actually a measure of power, unless you also know the RPM.

Oh fuck off, going on holiday is something plenty of people can afford.

It sounds like they’re justified in thinking that then.

Or do you think it’s like a game where you unlock the “passive listening device countermeasures” technology

Kinda, yes. Now that everyone knows how it works, and they will, because intelligence agencies share this stuff with their allies, it would become a lot harder to pull the same trick again.

If they don’t want it on the plane, you can always just post it home.

Why do you think it works like that? They know what it is and how it works, so they know what to look for.

had to surrender various items collected during the trip, including staff burner phones, credential badges, and lapel pins issued by China.

They think the Chinese are doing that.

That sounds very sensible actually, and hopefully would mean earning more than he otherwise would when he moves.

Which will eventually happen, although who knows when.

Didn’t read the article, did you?

The range of motion of the steering wheel is a bit over 180 degrees, with steering angle change ramping up the further you turn the wheel.

It’s genuinely fascinating technology actually, somewhat wasted on a vehicle as silly as the Cybertruck.

It’s kinda weird. They want the Cybertruck to be the problem so badly, and it just isn’t. And yet, they just keep arguing with everyone.

And insulting anyone who tries to explain it to them.

Cybertruck steering doesn’t work like other vehicles, it’s a steer by wire system, which is how the driver can go from lock to lock like that.

I don’t know why you’re getting so hung up on this.

Didn’t say they weren’t.

You’re bizarrely upset by someone saying something you disagree with.

And they have rear wheel steering, which is why the rear wheels turn like that.

Note that the van was on hard packed sand that is below the high tide line, and the Cybertruck is on the soft stuff.

This is mostly a reflection on the bozo driving the Cybertruck rather than the vehicle itself.

I’ve read the short story that was based on, incredibly creepy story.
