- Comment on How exactly are people lighting Teslas on fire? 1 week ago:
Fresnel lenses (like the kind you can tear out of old projection tv’s) work great for that, but they’re kind of a pain and bulky, and very impractical. I have one I took out of an old 55" projection tv. I think charcoal firestarters by a tire works better and can be “deployed” in seconds, but concentrated light is still pretty cool.

Good point. I didn’t think to add that because I rarely carry my tracking devices with me.

Filming only helps so much though. Cover your face and anything identifying, wear clothes from a thrift store, put a pebble in your shoe (to force you to walk differently) etc, and it’s pretty hard to link you to anything without some solid evidence.

Accelerants and or/ firestarters placed near the tires. Once you get the rubber burning the rest kind of takes care of itself.

Stellantis, the parent company of Jeep, Dodge, Chrysler, and Ram,
Not just a Jeep thing.
- Comment on Asteroid’s chances of hitting Earth in 2032 just got higher – but don’t panic 1 month ago:
Don’t panic? I think a lot of people may be rooting for the asteroid by the time it gets here.

I’m not a Ford guy, but they do look pretty good.

Taxpayer funded slave market. The taxpayer feeds them, clothes them, houses them, pays for the guards etc… THEN the elite get to use them for their discount labor.

Ngl, your title had me hyped for a minute there.
- Comment on EU disease agency considers quitting Elon Musk’s X over disinfo 4 months ago:
It USED to be a decent source for news and updates on stuff but that’s long gone. I deleted my account just before that weird billionaire guy bought it and don’t regret it one bit.
- Comment on The fact that some humans can shove an entire large pizza inside themselves is both amazing and terrifying 4 months ago:
Yup pretty much. When I’m working and doing a lot I eat like a horse, but days I don’t do much I don’t eat much either. And I haven’t gained weight in over 30 years despite people telling me otherwise. (Well, a little but mostly muscle mass… I was 165 at 16 and in my 50’s I’m 180 now with the same 31" waist.)

As one of those that easily destroy an XL pizza in one go… why is that terrifying?
I Mean, overall I don’t eat all that much… I never eat breakfast and very rarely eat lunch, so one meal a day for me (historically a very active person) has to be large to make up for the times I don’t have time to stop and eat. So it takes at least a large pizza or like two boxes of Mac & cheese to even come close to refilling my fuel tank.

Does his ass count as a source?
- Comment on USA President term limits 4 months ago:
They probably won’t get rid of elections… they’ll just have sham elections like Russia has to give the impression of “legitimacy” but I guarantee they’ll be heavily rigged in their favor.
- Comment on Why are laptop adapters so much larger than phone adapters of same power rating? 5 months ago:
My guess is it’s similar to the electric motors they put in cars vs industrial motors… they can both put out X amount of power but the industrial ones (or in this case the laptop power) can do it continuously without overheating while the other can only output “up to” that power rating for a short time without burning up.
