You can't mimic a spiritual being with AI |
When a woman wants to deal with you. The first step is to isolate you from your friends. Your family comes up second. After that your idiot meter will go off the scale! |
1. Use a diamond glass cutter towards the bottom of the bottle, get a smooth cut. 2. Insert your crab and make it fit in. 3. Glue back the bottle. 4. Wind a rope around the joint to cover it. 5. Put it on display 6. Collect money from the deceived. 7. Enjoy your hard earned money. |
Cool. Don't let anyone scare you. UK is one of the best places you can relocate to in the world. |
Can someone please help this guy? |
Elxandre:Normally, when you turn the ignition key all the way off, your steering will lock up at a small angle and you can't turn it, right? In this kinda emergency you need your steering to be fully usable to maneuver. So make sure you don't turn the key back to the last. |
ChybuzzDD:YES. I've tried it a lot of times at different speeds and selected gears just to see what happens. If you turn the key back into ON position without cranking, with a gear still engaged, the engine will start itself back. Driving a manual will make you aware of these kind of things, especially when you just start to drive it. |
Elxandre:On a level ground every gear has an ideal engine rev speed, usually close to your idle engine rev. If you gas down on that gear and release the throttle, the engine will force itself back to that rotational idle speed. So if you're moving, each time you release the gas without matching the brakes, your car will slow down due to engine resistance. It's called engine braking. But if you put it in neutral, the car will keep rolling until gravity prevails on it. When you switch off your engine normally, it forces itself to stop rotating, so if any of the gears are engaged, the engine will eventually force the car to stop, even if it was going down a slope. The lower the engaged gear, the quicker the car will stop. There's some physics behind it. Manual drivers will relate more. So if everything else fails and you can't stop the car, switch off the engine. Power steering will become very heavy but your adrenaline rush will give you strength. Beware not to lock your steering wheel with the ignition key. |
buygala:If one brake pad flies out, the fluid will leak out from that wheel when you press the pedal, so the other 3 will not work. Excessive wear can make a pad fly out. |
Elxandre:Neutral will only put you on free rolling. Engine braking is your best option when all fails. Switch off your engine at the current gear. Make sure not to lock your steering wheel so you can swerve. Your car will slow down much quicker than if you use neutral. Handbrake was his best option in that case, don't just engage it too sharply. |
Yes. Thank God my car was a manual transmission. I was just accelerating pass 100km/hr when one vehicle suddenly entered my lane in front. There was enough time to brake but I had an SUV right beside me, so I knew changing lanes wasn't an option. I pressed my brake pedal hard, heard a funny sound on one of my front wheels, then the pedal went extra soft - brakes completely gone! My Reaction: Clutched down. Quickly shifted from gear 4 back to gear 2, released clutch almost suddenly. Engine screamed, vehicle slowed down sharply. Repeated that, shifting from gear 2 to 1. Complete slow down. After regaining control, drove the vehicle another 17km on low speed, alternating between gear 2 and 3, till I found a mechanic. Stopped the car by shifting to gear 1 and switching off engine. Note Car was 4 speed manual. My gear 2 can normally reach over 70km/h if pushed very hard to its limit. So changing to it at around 100 was safe enough to not somersault. Handbrake was already bad, so not an option. Use my method if you have a manual. But if it's 5 speed or 6 speed gearbox and you're over 100, go to gear 3 first. But anything above 130km/h you should downshift to gear 4 first, before going further down. If it's automatic with D2 and D3, engage those gears. But if all you have is D, switch off your engine but don't lock your steering, it will slow down gently though you might not have enough time. At least you reduce impact force If you have handbrakes that work well, apply it gently and make sure it doesn't lock. |
Acekidc4:Eeyah. I remember when you people were chanting "16 years of rot" in 2015. When will you learn? |
Zxcvbnmghtr:Go listen to CHANGES by Tupac Shakur, you'll understand some things. No matter how good the body is, if the head is not correct (or even mad), it will always direct the body to go to bad or weird places, or nowhere at all. But is the head is good, no matter how bad the body is, so far it's still alive, the head can find a way to fix/heal that body and take it to its desired destination. |
vdestro:That's not face to face. You've not shown anything. Do you normally speak to your friends loudly from the end of the street? Don't you speak quietly and privately, side by side? During the transfiguration of Jesus, He spoke with Moses and Elijah face-to-face, because they appeared beside Him. They spoke with Him quietly, not voices from heaven - that's how friends talk, "as man speaks to his friends" (intimately, as in Exodus 33 the OP quoted). |
Baba is a mixed blessing for Nigeria. In some ways, he's the best Head of State ever. In other ways, you just want to blame him for everything. |
Na so rebel movement dey start. Liberia, Sierra Leone, Sudan, Libya, Syria, Afghanistan, East Ukraine... The list is long. Hope our head is correct in this country? |

Pick up a Bible and read the book of John over and over till he comes back. |

vdestro:You missed the part "a voice came from heaven". Don't we pray and hear a voice from God? Note that the OP said face-to-face talk like friends, meaning the presence of God is physically with you in a certain form, here on earth - not over a distance. |
Was Moses a Christian? NO! If that's your criteria then you would have to decide between Islam and Christianity. Did you read any account of Jesus Christ, the son of God, having a face-to-face conversation with God during his time on earth? Rather, He was filled with the Holy Spirit and went about doing good, and God's will. He is our role model, therefore, we also should be filled with the Holy Ghost and do God's will. Go read about Jesus Himself, if you're so much interested in Him. |
Ask Opanka44:Focus on the message, not the messenger. |
There is AI phobia in the world now. Intelligence is merely information and how to use it. Any logical reasoning a human can do, the machine can do it. Humans are only superior because of our massive memory capacity (for now) and our ability to use instincts and esoteric knowledge (soul and spirit) |
Headline is a bit misleading. She was charged for calling husband's friends repeatedly, not the husband himself. A babe once called me 47 times in a space of 1 hour, after I already told her I'd ring back (left the phone charging, unattended). When I eventually got back and called, I broke up with her straight on that call - she was only calling repeatedly because she thought I was ignoring her! I don't deal with psychos. |
Reading... Let's rule out nuclear blast first. If that tech existed 600 years ago, it wouldn't have been lost and would be in scientific documents way ahead of Albert Einstein. Meteor showers seems more probable. |
helinues:Find out the meaning of GDP per capita. Thank me later. |
Depends on what you really want, and who your partner is. |
Ronaldo is good, but he's too expensive. He is as expensive to other players as he's expensive to the team's purse. All other players need to work for Ronaldo to be functional, usually at their own detriment, because he takes all the glory. But Messi? Messi works for other players to become functional, to everyone's profit. Inferiority complex is Ronaldo's problem in this case. |
OtuologyProf:There's a time to be sly and there's a time to be blunt. In this domain of "nakology" (as you call it), bluntness is your best companion. It turns them into "deer in headlights" if you use it properly. But what do I know? ![]() Anyways, make sure to set yourself free from the claws of sensuality. One day you'd look back and realize you gained nothing. |
Why sneak to put off gen? Just calmly tell her you need to do other things and she should take her leave and (maybe) you'd like to receive her at another time. End of story. PS - the man who wants nothing in invincible. Casual sex is like tiny water droplets. Evaporates like it was never there. |
Huh? |
You guys don't understand simple things. Alice changed her name to Ruth after baptism during marriage counselling. |
