🚨#WATCH: As Dramatic Footage Captures Vehicle Driving Through and... Plunging Off Fishing Pier 📌#Oceanfront | #Virginia On Saturday morning around 6:52 a.m. in Oceanfront beach, Virginia, a car crashed, breaking through a metal gate. Driving at high speeds, as it proceeded to traverse the entire 1000-feet wooden fishing pier before eventually driving off the edge of the pier, plunging and crashing into the water. This incident prompted a heavy police response that remained at the scene for much of the day. Officials say at least one person is presumed dead, the motive of the driver is also unknown as it’s under investigationshow more

I just watched a Camaro already cruising at around... 60 mph… and the driver buried the throttle. The rear tires instantly turned into a cloud of smoke while the car kept pulling like it had another engine hidden under the hood. I’ve spent a lifetime around cars, and I don’t think I’ve ever seen a rolling burnout like that on the highway. Either that thing is making four-digit horsepower… or AI is getting disturbingly good. If that’s real, it’s one of the most outrageous displays of horsepower I’ve ever seen. #AStoneGroove #SilentMajoritySpeaksshow more

🚨Congestion Pricing and NYC’s Self-Inflicted Wound: Are Bus and... Bike Lanes Making Things Worse? As a lifelong New Yorker and daily driver, I’m seeing our city’s streets become more congested, less safe, and now, more costly—all thanks to street design choices that haven’t delivered on their promises. With congestion pricing on the way, drivers will soon have to pay extra for navigating roads that are bottlenecked by bike lanes, bus lanes, and pedestrian plazas. These were meant to relieve traffic and improve safety but have done the opposite. Areas like 6th Avenue, Lower Manhattan, and the West Village have seen car lanes disappear, replaced by underused bike lanes and additional bus lanes, making traffic worse. Parking is now dangerously close to bike lanes, where drivers risk being struck as they exit their vehicles. Meanwhile, bike lanes—used mainly in the warmer months—eat up space all year, adding to traffic problems without a year-round payoff. And for pedestrians, the situation isn’t much better. Crosswalks have become hazardous, with cyclists often ignoring stoplights and pedestrians’ right-of-way. What was meant to be a safer design has instead put walkers in harm’s way. Then there are the pedestrian plazas, such as those in Times Square and along Broadway. Intended as public spaces, they’ve funneled more traffic into surrounding streets and often become gathering points for crime, drug use, and loitering. What was supposed to create safe communal spaces has instead added congestion and security concerns to nearby areas. All this comes at a time when New Yorkers are already stretched thin. Between high taxes, soaring costs, and low wages, most can barely afford to live here. Adding a new congestion fee feels like punishment for a problem we didn’t create. So, what do you think? Should we keep paying for these planning missteps, or is it time to rethink the balance of our streets and find a solution that doesn’t leave New Yorkers footing the bill?

Based on the principles of physics, it is theoretically... possible for a planet to have a donut-shaped structure. To maintain the stability of a donut-shaped Earth, it would need to rotate at extremely high speeds, resulting in shorter day durations. Consequently, the gravitational force at the poles would intensify, approximately twice as strong as at the equator. The Moon would continue to orbit the Earth, as long as it maintains a sufficient distance. If the donut-shaped Earth has no tilt, the inner edges would receive no sunlight, while the outer edges would experience increased sunlight exposure, leading to significant temperature variations and extreme weather conditions. However, if the tilt remains unchanged, both the inner and outer edges would receive adequate sunlight. It is worth noting that a naturally occurring donut-shaped planet is highly unlikely unless advanced extraterrestrial beings decide to create one.show more

Heavy rain. High speeds. Elevated highways. This combination stresses... out even the best human drivers. But watching an autonomous car drive safely in heavy rain WHILE on an elevated highway gives a glimpse of future transportation. In this clip, Baidu Inc.'s Apollo Go navigates a high-speed roadway during a storm. When rain reduces visibility and road markings become harder to see, the vehicle demonstrates absolute safety. It isn’t just following a map; it's making real-time, cautious decisions to stay stable on slick pavement. This level of smooth driving comes from massive real-world experience. Apollo Go has already: → Completed over 17 million total rides as of October 2025 → Driven more than 140 million kilometers in fully driverless mode → Built a footprint across 22 cities worldwide, spanning a wide array of road and weather conditions. When a service runs at real-world scale, it accumulates the data and edge cases that make autonomous driving feel effortless. Even in heavy rain, technology stays calm, predictable, and safe.show more

Blake Brown (Blake Brown) lives mid–upper 90s and has... touched 101 mph at 6’0, 195 lbs while carrying 20–25% body fat through his midsection.⁠ ⁠ Does he throw hard in spite of that… or because of it? ⁠ ⁠ When you rotate at 95–100+ mph speeds, your trunk isn’t a rigid lever. It’s a deformable system— fascia, fat, muscle, viscera — all behaving with fluid-like properties. ⁠ ⁠ So here’s the why behind the ‘velo pouch’: ⁠ ⁠ 1. Rate-Dependent Behavior Viscoelastic tissues (muscle, fascia, fat, viscera) display time- and rate-dependent properties.⁠ -Low strain rates (walking, slow lifting): tissues deform and dissipate energy, acting as dampers that absorb shock and protect joints.⁠ -High strain rates (explosive trunk rotation): the same tissues stiffen non-linearly, behaving more like elastic springs. Instead of leaking energy, they store and recoil at the precise velocities required for throwing.⁠ ⁠ 2. Elastic Storage & Release⁠ As the trunk rotates, fascial slings that spiral around the torso are loaded. This deformation increases strain energy within the system. At pitching-level strain rates, those tissues recoil elastically, amplifying rotational velocity and contributing to the rapid acceleration of the arm.⁠ ⁠ 3. Rotational Energy Transfer⁠ Performance hinges on efficient rotational energy transfer. A more compliant torso allows greater torsional deformation (similar to wringing a towel), increasing elastic loading before recoil. Additional soft tissue mass distributes rotational forces across a larger surface area, smoothing out energy transfer through the chain and reducing localized energy leaks.show more

The video smooth zoom on the Samsung Galaxy S26... Ultra is still the closest thing to a professional camcorder experience in the smartphone industry today. In fact, it’s even easier to control than the iPhone. On many other phones, video zooming requires constant finger movement and very precise control. The zoom speed can easily become inconsistent, suddenly speeding up or slowing down. Samsung works differently. You simply hold your finger at a certain position, and the phone continues zooming at a constant speed. The entire process feels extremely stable and linear. It genuinely resembles the powered zoom control of a professional video camera. This logic is fundamentally related to Samsung’s AI slow motion technology. They share the same core foundation: real time control over motion trajectories, speed transitions, and frame interpolation. What you’re seeing here was shot in very windy conditions using Samsung’s Pro Video mode, continuously zooming from 5x to 25x. Aside from some slight stutter during optical lens switching points, the continuous zoom transition within digital zoom ranges is arguably the closest thing to a professional camera currently available on a smartphone. So if the future Samsung Galaxy S27 Ultra really removes the 3x telephoto camera, it could actually improve the video zoom experience further. Fewer optical switching points would theoretically reduce transition jumps and stutters, making the entire zoom range feel even more natural and continuous.show more

TESLA SEMI: THE FUTURE OF TRUCKING IS ELECTRIC, EFFICIENT... & AUTONOMOUS The Tesla Semi isn’t just another truck—it’s a complete redefinition of long-haul trucking. With production ramping up and deliveries accelerating, it’s already proving why electric Class 8 semis will dominate the industry. Why the Tesla Semi is critically important: •Unmatched efficiency & cost savings ~1.7 kWh/mile energy consumption (real-world data from PepsiCo & early fleets) — far lower than diesel equivalents. Operating costs drop dramatically with electricity vs. diesel, plus massive reductions in maintenance (no oil changes, fewer brake replacements thanks to regenerative braking). •Insane performance 0–60 mph in ~20 seconds fully loaded (500-mile range version), 0–60 in under 10 seconds in lighter configs. Instant torque makes hills and merging effortless—safer and faster than diesel trucks. •500+ mile range on a single charge Real-world highway range exceeds 500 miles even with heavy loads, eliminating most range anxiety for long-haul routes. Megachargers add hundreds of miles in ~30 minutes. •Autonomy-ready platform Built on Tesla’s Full Self-Driving hardware and software stack. Future unsupervised FSD will eliminate driver fatigue, reduce accidents (94% of which involve human error), and enable 24/7 operation—transforming driver economics and safety. •Environmental & regulatory edge Zero tailpipe emissions, helping fleets meet tightening emissions standards (California, EU, etc.). Lower noise pollution for urban deliveries and night operations. •Fleet economics revolution Lower TCO (total cost of ownership) than diesel trucks over the vehicle life. When combined with solar + Megapack charging depots, operating costs approach near-zero marginal energy cost. The Tesla Semi isn’t competing in trucking—it’s redefining the entire category. From PepsiCo’s early fleet to upcoming high-volume production, it’s the truck that makes electric long-haul not just possible, but inevitable 🚛⚡show more

🗣️ "We simply will not tolerate people risking the... safety of others and themselves by riding electric bikes at speed on our roads and pavements" Yesterday, proactive Roads Policing patrols on Stonebridge Lane saw a vehicle appearing to be exceeding 40mph at about 5pm, but when officers engaged with the rider he rode away. The suspect narrowly missed a pedestrian and was pursued around a nearby housing estate. He rode on pavements and pulled into the path of a car that had to brake suddenly before losing control of the bike and falling off. As the suspect tried to get back on the bike, the officers carefully drove their vehicle onto the bike’s back wheel and detained the rider. A 19-year-old man from Old Swan was arrested on suspicion of dangerous driving, drug driving, failing to stop, driving a motor vehicle otherwise than in accordance with a licence and using a motor vehicle without third party insurance. He has been released under investigation. The bike was found to be capable of top speeds of more than 50mph as well as having worn tyres, no brakes on the rear wheel and pedals that did not function❌ 🚳 Through Operation Gears, we are taking proactive action by seizing illegal bikes, arresting offenders, and increasing high-visibility patrols where the public and our own patrols identify issues. ➡️ Our activity is aimed at disrupting criminality and ultimately protecting our communities. #OpGears #SaferStreets #Arrestshow more

🇺🇦🇩🇪 Based on combat experience in Ukraine, the German... company Stark is upgrading its loitering munition Virtus, which is actively used by subunits of Ukraine’s Unmanned Systems Forces. 🔻 According to data published by the company, the updated Virtus now has a flight range of up to 130 km (30 km more than the previous version). Its loitering time has increased from 60 to 90 minutes, and its warhead is capable of penetrating armor up to 800 mm thick. This is another clear example of how Ukraine’s battlefield experience is driving rapid improvements in Western weapons. The enhanced Virtus will become a more effective and dangerous tool for striking Russian logistics, command posts, and armored vehicles at greater distances. Video is generated by grok AIshow more

As the New York Times put it: “Among the... singers, V is the lustiest and the most powerful.” Notice how Kim Taehyung's tone remains light and airy, yet carries enough brilliance, richness, and control to convey emotion without relying on the weight of chest voice or a fully developed head voice. Taehyung demonstrates excellent command of what is commonly referred to as a reinforced falsetto. In this technique, he maintains the underlying mechanism of falsetto — a register that is naturally lighter and lacks the full weight of the modal (chest) voice — while adding several elements that make the sound significantly richer and more expressive. These elements include: • Greater vocal fold closure (adduction), creating increased glottal compression and reducing the excessive breathiness typically associated with pure falsetto. • Efficient breath support, with well-controlled subglottal pressure, providing stability, sustain, and precise control over the vocal production. • Resonance adjustments, including the use of twang and vocal tract shaping, which enhance projection, brightness, and vocal presence. The result is a vocal production that preserves the lightness and delicacy of falsetto while gaining considerably more body, focus, and power. Rather than sounding overly breathy or fragile, the voice projects with remarkable clarity and sustain, effortlessly filling a stadium while retaining its ethereal, velvety quality. #Kimtaehyung #Taehyung #V #BTSVshow more

❗️🇷🇺🇺🇦 BREAKING | It seems the Russians are so... desperate due to systematic failures on the front lines that they now want to liquidate Ukraine’s top political and military leadership — figures such as Volodymyr Zelensky, Kyrylo Budanov, and Oleksandr Syrskyi. The Russian Foreign Ministry has officially called on foreigners to leave Kyiv as soon as possible, and advised residents of the city to stay away from military and administrative infrastructure facilities. 🎯 “The strike on Starobilsk has exhausted our patience. The Russian Armed Forces are beginning systematic strikes on enterprises of Ukraine’s defense industry (military-industrial complex) in Kyiv.” 📌 “The Russian Armed Forces will strike both political decision-making centers (meaning the President’s Office, the Verkhovna Rada, and other buildings) and Ukraine’s command points,” — Russian Foreign Ministry. 🔷 It is worth noting that more than 80% of the facilities belonging to Ukraine’s military-industrial complex are already located underground or outside Ukraine’s territory — in NATO countries Video is generated by grok AIshow more

I bit the bullet and set Jackson up with... a driver fitting this evening. I knew he hit it far, but didn’t know any of his numbers. Spoke to the pro after the fitting who sent me this video: Fastest swing was 118 mph. Ball speeds mid 160s into the 170s He has been playing my old clubs which were stiff shafts so he was a bit wild off the tee before. Fitter fit him into a Titleist driver head with an X-stiff shaft. Got the spin rates down to the low 2000s and he said Jackson’s control with the Titleist was remarkable. I am sooooooooo screwed. I could out drive him before because I could control my spin. I figured my older head and weaker shaft was hurting him. I could watch his semi-weird swing all day long. His back swing to me, while on plane, does not look very powerful, but his lag is sooo natural and he uses his 6 foot, 210 pound frame to send it. So awesome to see him playing the game again! #NonGolfHistoryshow more
