The dates are stamped in so I would trust it

You can taste it right now just by licking it…

Make sure it’s not been freezing the night before.

I know, this one is shorter and has mechanical brakes. Not as great but I imagine the Czech one, one of the largest in Europe, has very few English-language sources that could have pointed it out to him. I don’t know whether the Claughton one cannot be ridden or Tom is just squeamish about safety (see description) but the Černý Důl one definitely can, that’s how they do routine inspections.

Sorry, they reserve the right to implant and delete memories in Section 4.4.2 of the EULA.

An early version of the Petřín ropeway in Prague used to contain tanks in both cars. The upper one would be filled with sewage collected rainwater from the city’s hilltop quarter and the energy of the descent was used to pull the other car up. Additionally, the way up cost twice as much so there was an incentive to ascend on foot, which was about as fast despite the incline.

He literally has

in the description. Meanwhile, that fat dude from Vrchlabí jumped into a moving bucket of one that is faster, 2.5x longer, at deadly height, and his only plan of getting down safely was a mattress. He acknowledged how illegal and dangerous it is and yet publishes the video with his full name.

Just accept it, Tom Scott was being way more cautious.

I hope OpenTTD devs consider adding gravity-based electric transportation of heavy loads as an option

Not very smart that they waste all that energy in mechanical brakes. See my comment (the one with the picture) for a way bigger and electricity-generating ropeway, including a video of a guy less squeamish than Tom Scott riding most of the 45-minute way up.

Amateurs.

The 1963 Černý Důl – Kunčice nad Labem aerial ropeway is over 8 km (5 mi) long, over 30 m high in places and carries 135 tons of limestone every hour from a quarry to the nearest train station. Its 120kW 3-phase synchronous motor requires power for a few minutes at the start and end of each day when most of the 800kg-capacity trolleys are empty, and spends most of the shift generating mains electricity and acting as a speed governor. Unlike the EV, it is fully autonomous most of the way, only 5 people are required to operate it. (Loading, unloading and timed dispatching is automatic, arriving/leaving carts just need to be checked; a safety latch has to be manually dis/engaged on trolleys passing the check.) The quarry will continue operation as long as it pays off, then the ropeway will be scrapped (projected 2033). A dude illegally rode the way up on it somewhat recently. He could have fallen to his death if he pulled the latch.

You can sacrifice some pride/comfort/identity or go persist in Canada. There are lots of options that don’t involve anything tragic. None are great because of the horrors and that your agency over them is limited.

In the second clause, OP implies that an illusion is revealed when you rotate the image. As per the first clause, you shouldn’t trust OP.

The image hoster (freakin’ Fandom) seems to be blocking cross-origin requests.

“Trust me, you just need to buy more compute for your car. We’ll figure out reliable driving by sight someday.”

In a hospital I’ve been to, there is a skeleton poster by the MRI machine manufacturer (I think Siemens) smugly subtitled “without imaging techniques we wouldn’t know”. Apparently, it’s not just internet randos who forget. Too bad I can’t find it online.

I don’t mind seeing vids with small numbers (many are genuinely cool) but I avoid 500k and above (except music) because the mainstream is mostly clickbait.

And yes, we use switches but the lower network layers abstract that away and a LAN is still like a single bus on the network layer and up.

It’s a joke, note the conflation of port (physical connector) and port (one of 65536 virtual TCP/UDP pathways for applications). Also, HTTP(S) (port 80 or 443 by default) is literally “Hypertext Transfer Protocol” so it’s fair to say it was designed to carry HTML.

What is the <--> port for? HTML? I thought that was port 80 or 443…
