  • (@Dan not shitting on you, i just really hate Phillips)

    Next logical increment… Gotta say ain’t nothing logical about Phillips/posidrive bullshit,

    Robertson drive was around when Henry Ford decided to use Phillips on his cars. Robertson was more expensive to licence the patents(Phillips was cheap cause people thought it was shit)

    God damned Nazis fucking everything up(Ford was a Nazi(ish) and a real piece of shit). Maximizing profits over everything else screws everything up as we are seeing right now, but sometimes it doesn’t just fuck up the here and now, but like Phillips, it just keeps fucking everything up for more than 100 years.

    “Let’s make a drive that has an angle to it so that it will strip out super easily and destroy the fastener(don’t tell me Phillips is great because it limits torque, it doesn’t without destroying the head so bad you might not be able to remove it)” said no good engineer ever.







  • I know some ultra-marathoners, people who work extremely hard at heights, skateboarders/parkour…ist?/rock climbers, and one semi-pro soccer player who has a vertical leap that is unreal. Their connection is that none of them have social media(I dont count lemmy and do count 🦣). They are all capable of some amazing things that make you rethink humanity a bit. None of them look like instagram models, but I would argue that they are all more fit than the insta model crowd. I wouldn’t be inclined to bet on the models in a 1v1 fight either.

    TLDR: I think the batman bit is more realistic
