Even in the US we use metric tire sizing apart from a select few offload tires, which is annoying because its not even actual dimensions but more of a ratio or percentage of the overall width of the tire (in addition to the wheel size being in inches as you mentioned).

Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Megadeth guitarist becomes voice of reason regarding tourists dancing at shrine in JapanEnglish
3·10 小时前Thats entirely subjective. Just because you personally put more significance on one place over the other doesn’t mean that everyone else does too.

4·10 小时前I think its more influences and social media driving this bullshit. You can’t go anywhere touristy (including Japan including locals) without seeing influences hogging space to take thousands of photos with dumb poses so they can select the one photo that makes them look good “with little effort.”
I saw it in Tokyo Disney with 10 women who all looked identical taking identical photos all right next to one another. I saw it in Sensō-ji with Japanese women dressed in kimono blocking both sides of a bridge to take a zillion photos. I’ve seen it in Hawaii and Mexico. Shit disgusts the fuck out me and I think these people are pathetic as fuck as well as the people who follow them.

Technology@lemmy.world•‘I had to change where my kids sleep’: Man shares terrifying experience, says Amarillo officer tracked him 78 timesEnglish
1·12 小时前Here’s one example although the cops lived. I do recall at least one or two other stories but can’t find them on Google and wouldn’t be surprised to learn they were buried intentionally. I thought one was in CO or somewhere in the Midwest from several years ago where a man shot a few cops who were at the wrong address.

11·12 小时前Flocks only part in this abomination was that it alerted police after scanning the plate. If the cop had entered the plate manually, the outcome would have been the same.
Looks like a door frame in the background so they probably got on here after walking across the top of the door which closed or was closed on them.

4·16 小时前Exactly. You’re letting the fascists control the discussion when all you do is react to whatever topic they want you to be focused on for the day. That’s the nonsense part not the topic of discussion.

Technology@lemmy.world•Flock Camera Tells Cop New Car Didn’t Have Insurance When It Did, Cop Writes Ticket AnywayEnglish
26·16 小时前I’ve seen other examples of this in bodycam videos from Georgia on YouTube where Flock wasn’t involved at all. The cops claimed that they only go by what their computers say regardless of whether the person has proof of insurance on hand. In one notable example, a cop stopped an elderly couple at around midnight for the same reason, ignored their proof of insurance, and left them stranded on the side of the road after towing their car. The husband was disabled and couldn’t walk.

41·2 天前So this IS about antisemitism and conflating behavior of individuals on the entire group.
Yes you did. One’s nationality has nothing to do with their religion and discriminating against people from a certain nation, especially current and e former military members engaging in genocide has absolutely nothing to do with religious discrimination. Go peddle your nonsense on Facebook. I’m sure it’ll get more traction there.

News@lemmy.world•TSA brings back gate access for some people without plane tickets 25 years after 9/11
2·2 天前Ive never once been asked to show ID at the gate on any domestic flight in the US and fly several times a year. On this most recent trip I was asked to show my passport when boarding in Honolulu to Tokyo and again when boarding in Osaka to Honolulu but that’s it.
Someone else mentioned that gate agents can see your photo when they scan your boarding pass and someone else pointed out that you have to already be cleared by TSA pre-check to even make it this far, so it’s not something I’m even concerned about. I was just answering the question of how someone could swap places with a ticket holder to board a flight.

5·2 天前This person also “confirmed” above that anyone speaking negatively about tourists from Israel is being “antisemetic” too. Just your typical propaganda pusher.

31·2 天前Literally nowhere did I ask you for a source and the fact that you’re ignoring my request to quote me asking that just proves that you know I’m right.
Now you want to derail the discussion because you know your idea makes no sense, so you want to avoid discussing it any further. It’s a nonsensical idea rooted in smugness, bitterness, and wanting to feel superior to everyone else for having “the most extreme take” just like the “FuckCars” people who think everyone should be shamed for not riding a bicycle everywhere despite that being an impossibility for most in this country.

101·2 天前I’d love to but this guy thinks airplanes shouldn’t exist and I can’t afford to waste 6 weeks of vacation on a boat ride to Europe.
I did ride the bullet train and local trains all over Tokyo and Osaka and agree they’re fantastic, cheap, and efficient. That’s a goal to strive for. “Airplanes shouldn’t exist” is nonsense and counterproductive to progress.

51·2 天前Please point out where I “asked you for a source.” I stated I don’t know where you’re getting your ideas from because your grand vision only exists in a mythical fantasyland not anywhere on this planet.
This idea also doesn’t accomplish anything other than making people write your opinions off entirely since it makes little sense and would bring harm to tons of people with zero benefits.

32·2 天前First world countries with good public transportation use airplanes too, so I’m not sure where you’re sourcing your ideas from. Transporter technology is clearly the better option.






If it’s just for fitment then all you need at the critical dimensions. You could have just printed the ID of the gear centers to see if they fit on the shift or added a ton of open space on the big gear like how a spoked wheel looks to save lots of filament and print time.
