Drone Race

airgonay_drone_racingThe more the future advances, the more video games are becoming real life.  I suppose this was always the plan of “interactive” gaming but this racing is intense.  You take video game controls, move them into a real life obstacle course using fast as lightning drones, and you’ll get geeks galore.  Neat stuff.  And some not so neat stuff…Reddit nerds arguing over terminology:

Does it bother anyone else that nobody differentiates between “Drones” (Autonomous aircraft) and “Remote Control” aircraft?

[–]mycommentingprofile 141 points

The term “Drone” does not exclusively indicate autonomous vehicles, and has been widely accepted to be synonymous with UAV’s:

A term or word being correct or not is decided based off common usage. If it’s widely accepted, then it’s correct.

10 years ago people used to bitch about the word “ain’t” not being a word. Now it’s in the dictionary after being used since the 1700s.

The word “literally” is now synonymous with “figuratively” because of common usage.

The word ‘literally’ is colloquially used as an emphasis. It has really become a synonym of ‘seriously’.

Courtney Brown Interview is Electric

Jkash told me about this clip and I’ll always do my best to post whenever someone submits me a video of interest. This “guy” looks like Rodman. I also like how he always uses his manner with ma’am.

“A piece of burger from Burger King”
“Twisted round like a tornado, girl”

Seth MacFarlane Singing Cyndi Lauper

I can’t explain why but I enjoy this immensely. @ 35 seconds when his head sprouts up. The way he is able to change his voice tone and speed for comedic effect. When the hosts asked if he wants to do you want do True Colors and he responds with “do YOU want me to do True Colors.” Plus his singing is really good. What a talent.

Strongest Wooden Planks Ever!

Couple of thoughts:

  • A+ to keeping the wheels on the planks.
  • Going slow was hilarious because if it was going to break, it didn’t matter where he was on the planks.  I assume this was for control.
  • It’s called steel.

Septa Driver Loses Control – Your Thoughts?

Sanka, you dead mon?

Septa Driver Loses Control of Bus

I apologize but the video doesn’t allow me to embed it to the site so I have to use a hyperlink.

The email from JKash:

I think you should post the video from this story, and request readers to simply make observations.  Many, many ridiculous observations to be made.

A few of mine.

  • I love how Septa makes it clear that she’s been driving for 10 years.
  • Am I bad person for laughing hysterically through the fall.
  • The driving gloves are doing wonders for her.
  • 4 cameras tracking every move on the bus?  It feels like Speed.

Nick Bateman Roundhouse Kick

I watched this one time and my original thought was the only way this could be worth watching is if the dummy gave him a roundhouse kick. Reddit aptly pointed out that it’s spinning heel kick.

A video posted by Nick Bateman (@nick__bateman) on

Then I watched it a second time and expected the dummy’s head to explode. When that didn’t happen I saw some dinky water bottle being knocked off. Not impressed I finally noticed he was kicking through a spinning bar. Ehhh. I wanted the dummy to kick back. This is better.

This was Gourlay’s top comment:
If I was staring at his dick the entire time does that make me gay?

Oil and Water

Here’s a gif of a genius adding water to oil. Or vice versa.

DO NOT USE WATER ON A GREASE FIRE!
Start evacuating everyone from the building. Fires spread extremely fast and can overwhelm victims in minutes. Treat burns only after evacuating the building.

Turn off the Burner! The fire might go out with this simple step.

Call 911. There’s no reason to wait, Rocky Mountain Fire will be there to assist even if you manage to get the fire out.

The easiest way to smother a grease fire is to cover it with a pan lid. Be careful with glass lids; they can break from the extreme heat of open flame.

Grease fires can also be smothered with baking soda, but it takes a lot of baking soda to do the trick. Unless the baking soda is easily accessible, it’s usually easier to quickly find a lid.

A dry chemical fire extinguisher will also work, but it will contaminate your kitchen and food. Class K fire extinguishers are available to put out grease and other kitchen fires, but they are usually only found in commercial kitchens.

A newly developed fire extinguishing spray is now available. Highly effective on common household fires including grease fires. Dispensed from a common aerosol spray can.
