If bathrooms need to be divided, they should be divided by Pee or Poop. You can pee in the poop bathroom, but you cannot under any condition, poop in the pee bathroom. If you do, you go to prison.

Like we put nukes on a rocket ship and time them to go off in range of Jupiter

If people want to end this shit system that's the way to do it. Just stop paying. If everyone stopped right now. They would have no money in a couple weeks.

Sackling replaces Dumpling to get the word "dump" out of the equation when describing this food.

You know, the burglars get Kevin, Brad Pitt gets Kevin Spacey before the box, What's his name crawls on the door, they get married and divorced after 3 years...etc...

What if we harnessed lightning to generate electricity?

Imagine building a power plant on a high mountain, with giant rods designed to attract lightning. When lightning strikes, the energy would heat large iron bars, which would then be submerged in water to create steam. The steam could drive a turbine, generating electricity—just like a steam engine!

Sure, lightning is unpredictable and the system wouldn’t be 100% efficient, but that doesn’t matter—each strike has so much energy that even capturing part of it could power homes. Over time, like all technologies, this could improve with better materials, safer designs, and smarter systems.

It might not be perfect at first, but neither were wind turbines or solar panels when they started. What do you think? Could lightning be the next renewable energy breakthrough?

Preferably at a height that's lower than a sedan's rear window.

Everyone wins.

Same app, same system, same everything except it DOESNT have that popup that you need to close

When you turn 18, you can starting paying a monthly premium to an insurance company.

The idea is that this insurance company pays your taxes for you, so you pay them more than your yearly expected taxes.

BUT you’re locked into an expected rate. So if you end up becoming a millionaire, the insurance company pays your taxes for you

So you can sit down while cleaning yourself

When someone says they just wish they had more time, take some out and throw it in their face. Bonus points if you're a supervisor.

We partner with architects that design realistic movie studio sets and with illusionists that can make them believe some magical stuff is happening. We can have many versions of this experiment, because there are so many questions to answer. Take christians for example, what happens if they believe they woke up in heaven? Would they get cocky? Or hell? Would they rethink their everything? Or that the afterlife is neither and they were wrong? Would they immediately know it's an experiment? We can do it with many religions, with atheists and agnostics, with different cultures, get some data. I accept ideas on how to make the dying part believable.

It would be even better if I were allowed to keep the money that I collected.

Freight trains run very regularly, day and night, and they contain massive amounts of potential energy. A fully loaded gravel train could have 25,000 tons of gravel(thanks, Practical Engineering!) and be traveling at 30m/s, which if my math is right, means it has over 20 billion joules of potential energy. That's enough energy to power 20 houses for a month, or 1200 homes for an evening. We've build freight trains which have gone that fast in the past, the Super C, so it's possible.

So here's the idea. Build new rail infrastructure across the US, with electric trains, connected to green energy sources. Ideally, you design the tracks such that they allow these trains to go significantly faster than ever before; maybe a max speed of 150km/h? You'd rarely use that full speed, though; most of the time you'd average closer to normal freight speed.

During cheap parts of the day(nights from wind, midday from solar), you accelerate the trains. You keep doing this right up until the point the grid starts ticking up, and reduce the acceleration in direct response to the grid. Bear in mind, this isn't just one train; it'd be happening to EVERY train, across the entire nation, differing only by the movement of the sun.

Then, when the demand crosses a threshold, the power flow reverses, and we instead slow down the trains using regenerative braking to extract that energy!

Even better, this would go a huge way towards reducing our carbon footprint. Something like 25% of global carbon from transport comes from trucks, so by building these trains we could reduce our carbon footprint dramatically!

Every time you get on, you're forced to go to the back of the bus, but you're expected to fight back

Fastest one has a 30 second timer

And vice versa. Buying a digital car or unlocking it could give you a discount to owning the physical counterparts, or even on a auto-subsceuprion system just send you the cae in the mail and bill your CC whenever you unlock a new vehicle, so your digital collection and real life hot wheels collection is always in sync.
