Reading comprehension has always been a struggle for you, I take it. It does not matter how it compares to an airplane, because it is not an airplane. It's not a boat either, you imbecile, do we need to dissect that one as well?

Okay, then I'm going to criticize you as an airplane. You're a fucking piece of shit airplane, dude. You don't even have wings, what the fuck are you doing? You can't produce thrust, you can't generate lift, what good are you as an airplane? Get outta here, stop wasting everyone's time.

See how fuckin' stupid that was?

Yes, there is an inherent risk associated with aircraft that cannot glide. What's your point? Cars can't have wings, it simply isn't viable, so what do you propose? You want them to design a car-shaped object that can magically glide without wings? Think about it for more than a second and you'll see the issue there. What you're suggesting cannot exist within the currently-understood laws of physics. In order for flying cars to become reality, there is a certain level of risk that must be accepted.

Saying "its a VTOL, so it doesn't matter" puts you on the same safety standards as that submarine guy.

You don't know a fucking thing about me, so how about we steer clear of character assumptions? Maybe show me the courtesy of just arguing facts on this one?

That guy knowingly and intentionally broke all of the rules. That's not what I'm talking about. I'm not suggesting any rules be broken or any safety standards be forsaken, I'm simply pointing out that you cannot judge this concept based on a fundamentally different type of aircraft.

It's a vehicle that flys.

Ever seen a fuckin' helicopter? Hot air balloon? Blimp? Turns out there's more than one way to get and remain airborne. Think...

This is a ridiculous comment. Are you intentionally missing the point? Why are you applying airplane design principles to a car? It's not a plane...it's a car.

Glide coefficient? In what scenario do you imagine this car gliding? Do you see wings? They didn't "make it VTOL" because they couldn't design a functional airplane, they designed it as a VTOL from day one because a flying car that isn't VTOL capable wouldn't be viable. The very concept of a flying car is based on VTOL. It can only work as a car if it's VTOL. A fixed-wing flying car would be asinine, where the hell do you expect people to take off?

Look I am not a supporter of this thing. It has too many glaring issues, like the fact that it doesn't currently exist. You cannot, however, criticize this vehicle based on its merits as an airplane, because it's not an airplane.

Well said. Speaking ill of the dead says more about the speaker than the departed. It's disgusting, and it's extremely disappointing how many find it acceptable to say terrible things about someone just because they were rich.

Death is the equalizer. No matter who are in life, we all die the same. Those rich people didn't get to take their money with them, they're just dead. It's like gloating to someone you just beat in a race. It's over, and they lost. Show some goddamn respect.

Oh my goddamn give it a fucking break already. You can say the same about any other son who spent time with his dad when he probably didn't want to. The fact that they were rich doesn't make it evil for a father to want to spend time with his son. It's not like he knew they were going to die; he didn't intentionally drag his son along to his death.

Goddamn, I've never been more disgusted with the "good guys." Coerced into death, are you fucking serious? Can we just investigate and analyze this empirically without making up reasons to hate the people involved? They're dead, dude. Let it be.

...Then why are you talking to me? I'm referring to the people who are blatantly and shamelessly celebrating this. If you are not doing that, then you're not one of the people I'm talking about; my comment wasn't about you.

I know he fucked up, he fucked up in just about every way you can fuck up, and he did it knowingly, willingly even. I fully support the investigation and exposure of every single thing that went wrong and why; that is how we learn from these things. We can do that while still showing basic decency and respect for the dead.

I don’t know why you are pissed off at me

Probably because you came into a science forum, made some asinine claim with zero supporting evidence, and now that you've been challenged, you're acting like a victim. Without evidence there is no argument, no discussion, no anything. Evidence is the only truth that we have. If you do not have evidence, your claim is inherently bullshit. It's not even worth discussing until you have some factual basis upon which to build that discussion.

"Some humans aren't monogamous, therefore humans are not monogamous." isn't good enough. That doesn't even make sense, I can't believe you fuckin' said that.

You made the claim, you carry the burden of proof. Instead of acting like a fucking child, you could have been looking for papers that support your argument. I just glanced at Google Scholar for all of 3 minutes and scrolled through no less than 5 pages of papers on the topic of human monogamy. What's your excuse? Go find some proof, or shut the fuck up.

Yeah, Hitler had a lot of justifications for slaughtering Jews too.

How can you be so blind? It doesn’t matter what banner you claim, if you pursue your ideals through death and violence, you are not the good guy.

Idk, was it necessary to make your name a reference to reddit? My fuckin' name is assbutt, dude, the bar isn't very high here. It's pretty fuckin' weird to call yourself 'snoo' while you go around decrying the evils of reddit.

By which decree?

Come on, are you fuckin' serious right now? If you create 'SnooFuckersAnonymous' then abandon it next week, what the hell are the admins supposed to do with it? According to you, they have to leave it there, empty and unused, forever, instead of letting someone make something out of it. That is asinine beyond words.

For someone who loves reddit enough to adopt the name of their mascot, you sure don't seem to understand how it worked. You're acting as if subreddit requests were exclusively hostile takeovers. Part of requesting a sub was proving that you had made every attempt to contact the existing mods.

Transferring ownership to new mods is basic maintenance in a place like this. Nobody is suggesting we steal communities from their owners and hand them out to trolls.

Might wanna NSFW tag these, homie, not everyone wants hentai bondage on their front page lol

Everyone's trying to kill reddit, but that isn't something we have the power to do. There is no offensive action we can take that will bring reddit down. I wish that idea would dissipate already.

What we can do, the only thing we can do, the sole action that is within our power, is to do nothing. Walk away, close that chapter, allow reddit to fade. As we have seen time and time again, reddit is perfectly capable of killing reddit; we have only to step back and watch it happen...

...without actually giving them traffic, of course.
