Breadtube if it didn't suck.

Post videos you genuinely enjoy and want to share, duh. Celebrate the diversity of interests shared by chapochatters by posting a deep dive into Venetian kelp farming, I dunno. Also media criticism, bite-sized versions of left-wing theory, all the stuff you expected. But I am curious about that kelp farming thing now that you mentioned it.

Low effort / spam videos might be removed, especially weeb content.

There is a cytube that you can paste videos into and watch with whoever happens to be around. It's open submission unless there's something important to commandeer it with at the time.

A weekly watch party happens every Saturday (Sunday down under), with video nominations Saturday-Monday, voting Monday-Thursday. See the pin for whatever stage it's currently in.

He then goes up a small hill and says "this feels good. I can't see anything out front."

This is the funniest shit I've ever seen. "I'M HAVING SO MUCH FUN!" Can hardly travel over a path made of logs.

The thing sounded like it was breaking, what is that plastic scraping sound?

I am so sick of Americans claiming they need "off road capability". Nearly none of them do. The people who most vocally claim they do don't even off road as a hobby. They just wanna drive a large, wasteful truck so they can seem intimidating.

crawling the rocks of the walmart parking lot

It's to futureproof when US roads crumble to the point of needing off road capabilities to drive to Walmart.

I used to think "well at least 4wd for snowy areas" but if people just got snow tires, took transit, put studded tires on their bike, whatever then it wouldn't be necessary for 95+% of people even in those areas

lmao the slow crawl up the logs that shit killed me

bro just buy an 89 suzuki samurai, fix it up and go play in the dirt. it's cheaper and you can look normal.

I love that all of our local mountain roads designated for this kind of driving have terrain that's about as bad as this, plus uneven dirt and constant incline switching. They'll be stuck an hour's drive from the nearest small town and further from anywhere with a charger.

I still can't get over how the entirety of the car's data is fed through 1 touchscreen that is mounted in the center of the dashboard. No gauges, no instrument cluster, no knobs for climate control, nothing.

So uniquely terrible

Electronic turn signal control has to be the dumbest idea I’ve ever heard and also takes like the only fun part of driving away.

It should also be illegal. It's no different than people using their mobile phones when driving.

Holy fucking shit majority of the YouTube comments are talking about how awesome this is and proves the cybertruck is great at off reading. K assumed they were sarcastic then kept reading like 4 different times.

bursts into flames

[–] ComRed2@hexbear.net 15 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Whoa, next you'll be telling me it can drive on roads!

[–] happybadger@hexbear.net 3 points 5 months ago

screm-cool nope, that makes it break even more

[–] CoolerOpposide@hexbear.net 15 points 5 months ago

The worst, old, beat up Subaru could do this

[–] Xx_Aru_xX@hexbear.net 12 points 5 months ago

Get a Lada Niva instead, probably safer

> uses hill climb assist up a small concrete stairs. basically just a steady incline with small bumps

"oh uh, I don't know if this takes the fun out of it, but its doing this all on its own" *soyfaces*

> tries to use hill assist down the stairs, it refuses to even engage

> creams pants while driving around a dirt course at 20mph

> says multiple times he cannot see anything around the vehicle without all the cameras

> notification pops up on screen obscuring said cameras

So much cope and Tesla boot licking in those comments.

And the next clip where its wheels are spinning as it tries to go up a slight incline.

And then it loses a drag race to a quad bike (by a big margin) and the Tesla guy just keeps repeating "I beat him" as though he's been cheated

I saw a video on reddit that was basically an ad for a Toyota hilux and it could have taken these logs at 100mph
