managed to find this other image (taken by Eric Schultz)

you look to be right!! they do not look to be able to accommodate a hinge. we weren’t able to find a photo of the area of interest unfortunately.

our two cents on this:

if there are hinges on the rear of the hood, it may just slide up the windscreen, as the screws (or whatever fastener) used to attach them might simply rip out. the planks used as the frame of the hood look to provide a very convenient load path directly towards said hinges, and the not so strong looking mounts they are on. as you said, wood can withstand much compression along the grain, meaning those mounts would be put under very high loads, and probably fail.

and if those mounts did not fail, the actual sheet of plywood or OSB used isn’t super thick, maybe about three eighths of an inch, or about 10mm if it’s metric? its failure mode would likely involve buckling or it just crumbling into pieces… cars are heavy!

either way, the windscreen is very strong, and the wood used here is a lot weaker, at least as far as loads on the broad surface go. the most pertinent hazard here seems to be of the hood catching air, flipping up, and obstructing the view of the operator. there do look to be tie-downs here to stop that, but even the non-modified hood of a regular passenger vehicle can absolutely flip up if it is not closed properly! again, the windscreen would likely still protect the occupants, and in the latter case has for many.

of course, this is all conjecture… much more information would be needed about this setup to come to a decisive conclusion. happy engineering! :)

all the new technology!!

oh, now there is no sound…

maybe a hair tie or marker pen. sometimes tools (mainly wrenches). uhh not really any specific pockets we use for stuff, ,

tyy, the socks seem to be a favorite among the crowds. yesterday at protest, we also wore them and received no less than fourteen compliments about them. further ones are still VERY welcome though hehe :D

they are also so so super comfy. if you haven’t any knitted stuff, do get some!!

us testing out a fender we designed for our go-kart a couple weeks ago

the fender on the left wheel is the third iteration. the second iteration was on the right wheel but was ripped to shreds (this is why we test stuff).

while this is not real, something similar in principal very much was! (but not too widespread)

see here or look up “casino dos malware”

uh in short it erases “the disk’s” (unsure which) file allocation table (pretty much the dos/windows version of a superblock). apparently some versions did copy it to memory and give the user a chance though!

thank you for venturing into the dumpster fire i’ve heard twitter is to find the source!!

it is appreciated by myself and will be by others :)

there is a joke here to be had with “cvmdumpster” and latin orthography, but unfortunately it happens that in the morning i’m not a very cunning linguist

ctrl+v: (from a previous post)

i think it would be more accurate so say that, often, asexuality yearns for the absence of sex, rather than being defined by it.

middle click: (from a message i sent to my friend on steam i think? no idea how middle click clipboard actually works honestly)

o meowmaxxing is the PERFECT word

wait i mig

(if you want a conclusion to the story, i realized that my coat would have completely obscured it and no embarrassment was to be had lol)

hell yeah this is peak

uh also when i started hrt i noticed i smelled a lot different, and it varies a little based on how long its been since application. in your experience does sex hormone fluctuation like actually have a noticeable effect on this too or not really? personally i’ve never really payed attention hehe

cw: talks a fair bit about sex and my perspective on it

i sometimes experience a problem myself similar in vain to this.

as much as i enjoy snuggling and affection and even more “smutty” stuff like breasts, i do not enjoy the prospect of sex. perhaps its some form of gender dysphoria, perhaps its something else, honestly not super sure. all i know is i don’t find sex appealing!! but i’m also not vehemently against it or disgusted by it. i think this article puts it really well:

i think it would be more accurate so [sic] say that, often, asexuality yearns for the absence of sex, rather than being defined by it.

with regards to nudity: the only times it actually makes me feel a little uncomfortable is when it is set in a sexual/romantic setting. if someone is at the lake with not as much as a patch of covering on them and just swimming around and having fun, i don’t mind at all. so long as its not sexualized i think nudity is perfectly okay! but, if it is brought into any romance through even just caressing the other’s hair or whatever, it puts me off a little.

again, i do like this sort of affection, i do absolutely find people attractive. i just enjoy being able to be affectionate or observe it without having to partake in/bear witness to sex!

however, a marginally decent number of people are seemingly unable to comprehend any this. quite often some people get incredibly confused no matter how much i try and explain this to them. i’ve never really been ridiculed for it thankfully, but it just does not seem to compute in some people’s heads that i am not fond of sex!!

that aside, this is thankfully one of the better places i’ve seen on the internet, and i’m glad to be here!! regardless i provide you with my best wishes when it comes to fending off the demands of the internet, and my apologies for the ramble :D

the instance i use does not have downvotes. i personally like this, as if someone disagrees with something, they must express that via their own words, which i find to be a lot more productive and useful!

my basis is, if the comment contributes meaningfully/helpfully to the subject at hand—whether that is via explanation, personal storytelling of something relevant, something funny or kind that makes other people smile/feel joy, among many others—then i elect to give an upvote.

if it is unintelligible to me (like a reference i don’t get), overly provocative, actively harmful (anti-vaccination stuff etc.) or otherwise not made in a real effort to contribute anything useful or interesting, then i elect not to give an upvote.

that is just my reasoning though :)

yayyy

one more for the collection!!

from what i’ve gathered, many earlier EVs were more so “luxury” vehicles, and a lot of them were made by tesla, notorious for shoving wireless connectivity in vehicles. those other luxury EVs decided to follow suit with that!

but note that “many” i sneaked in there. there were absolutely some that weren’t spyware machines! the first that come to mind are the earlier models of the nissan leaf and chevy volt (well, there is onstar, but it is not so hard to disable), but there are certainly others. there is no valid reason for the spyware, i mean these cars easily did without it (minus again, onstar…)!

as for an electric van, i knew a (ex-)teacher who did just that! from what she said, she pulled a couple of the major drivetrain components (motor, battery, differential etc.) from a crashed nissan leaf, hooked up an aftermarket controller, and from what i heard the most fiddly parts were the charge port and getting the axles dealt with. i don’t know if she got custom axles made or if she just mashed together the axles from both vehicles, but she said it was ultimately a nice vehicle to drive around.
