I always think about how much and how bulky all the equipment is, and how popular skiing is. Other "new" sports that come out often don't make it because there is too much equipment or it's way to bulky.

And the innumerable time energy and resources we've put into building absolutely everything around us, insaneeee, like the average house takes close to 4 months give or take, now imagine the countless houses that have been built through time the countless cities which were destroyed and then bigger cities built on those, its mindfucking crazy

sorry for the tangent

but a car that can drive sideways for parallel parking in the city (simple idea, hard to implement)

when you really think about it, the rules to most sports were clearly created by a douchebag. Think about baseball. If you think about the vast majority of the rules in baseball, you can piece it together as if it was just 3 or 4 guys playing a new game with 1 who didn't want to lose.

"oh i hit that one far! I deserve a free point for that. yay me!"

"that's 4 bad pitches, fuck you, i'm done. I'm taking this base for free. And you missed 3 good pitches, so you're done. Sit down."

it's actually false too. NASA did eventually develop a pen because lead/wood breaking in 0g could be dangerous, but back in the day they still used just a pencil.

A pill that would make your sperm not fertile for just a night. That way you could completely eliminate using a condom. Man would life be great!

it wouldnt get slow after awhile because it would use a stacked current which means that the amount of current that the computer is outputing is distributed evenly to each usb cable so basically depending on how many you put on the output would be less and less for each device but equal... therefore diminishing any chance of a meltdown, etc... it would just eventually be so little it would have no effect on the device and will not be able to charge it.

the fact of the matter is, the chinese invented it first, but the scandinavians came up with it on their own as well so i guess both groups "invented" it.
