a piece of technology has done something you never will.
>>322133230
vibrators?
lol did he fall off a hoverboard
I see these all the time at my university
Most pieces of technology do things I never will. The reason we invent new technology is to accomplish things we could not otherwise accomplish without it.
even a broken piece of stone can cut branches you will never be able to break, so yeah. That's LITERALLY the point of technology you know.
>>322133230
My roommate got one of those roller thingies. I didn't see it myself, but he trashed it something fierce. Both the backlights were broken and non-functional and the left wheel didn't work anymore.
What are the point of these things, anyway? I know it's not for faster transport because I can easily walk faster than these things.
>>322134074
You get to be lazier.
>>322134214
a skate would make you lazier. This shit will just kill a thousand in a year before fading away like and overpriced skip-it
>>322134214
wouldnt your legs hurt from standing still though?
I don't get it.
>>322134309
you have to kick and push with skateboards.
too much effort.
>>322133457
Underrated post desu
>>322134214
It takes more effort and stress to balance on this thing than it does to sprint, let alone go from Point A to Point B. If that was it's intended goal, it failed miserably in it.
>>322134309
Considering my roommate only bruised his arm, he got lucky. I wouldn't be surprised if someone's already got his neck snapped or head spilled over the pavement already from this thing.
>>322134074
They're like Segways except not as prohibitively priced
At least I can jerk off to anime, what technology can do that and feel pleasure?
it has wheels and doesn't hover, why is it called a hoverboard?
>>322133230
is this one of those le ebin watar tempel so hard:(((( memes?
>>322134475
I don't read the news but instantly got the joke.
>hoverboard
>mike tyson sprite laid out
>hoverboard KO'd Mike Tyson
Jesus fuck youre an autistic retard I hope you get sucker punched. You were probably that retard in highschool who failed to interpret any book you read.why does your post make me so fucking angry
>>322134635
and even more dangerous.
>tfw seeing someone with that in a packed crosswalk
I honestly thought he would knock everyone down
>>322133230
I'm waiting on the law that makes helmets and other protective gear mandatory so they coon look like bigger retards on wheels.
>>322134754
Also, real hoverboards already exists.
Spoiler, they're also pieces of shit that pro skaters can't even ride.
Nigger technology.
>>322134806
pls no bully
>>322134969
Is that thing smoking? Are they prone to overheating and combusting?
>>322134962
>mandatory helmet law
fuck you, why does everyone want to increase the life expectancy of retards? let natural selection take place you assholes.
>>322135089
The reverse. Thing is filled with liquid nitrogen to keep the super conductors cool enough
>>322135096
It's mandatory on motorbikes that are actually safer to use that those things. If Tyson fell on a concrete pavement he would have ended in the hospital.
>>322134969
>pro skaters
>ever skating
lol
you mean brand mascots with reality shows
I've been seeing this on american news websites and shit.
I live in Europe and I have never seen this shit.
Isn't it just a segway without the top part?
did mike tyson die or something?
I wish I could afford to look like a major tool for no reason.
>>322135258
Helmets aren't mandatory on motorcycles where I live. We allow our retards to die off as nature intended.
>>322135209
That sounds even more dangerous. That shit ain't something normal people should ever handle, let alone the idiots stupid enough to buy this shit.
>>322135413
why the fuck is /v/ so stupid, there is no way that image is that hard to figure out
>>322133230
Didn't these things explode after long use?!
>>322135441
>Helmets aren't mandatory on motorcycles where I live
yew. pavement must reeks of rotten brain
>>322135463
Its from a car commercial.
>>322135391
It's probably not allowed in Europe because of safety laws. Segway hardly made it to begin with. And are literally only used by American tourist in tourist traps area.
>>322135680
Car commercials rile my 'tism something fierce. They're so god damn stupid.
>>322135463
>normal people
Normal people can't afford to drop 2-5k on a board they'll use for ten minutes, this is obviously for wealthy people and hobbyists.
>inb4 rich people are stupid
yeah no, theres a reason their rich and youre not
>>322135680
Check Gizmodo, it's going to be an actual product, theyv'e already got a listing for it.
>>322133230
This means by the transitive property, If I beat the shit out of one of those boards, I can beat the shit out of Mike Tyson
>>322134969
When was a piece of technology ever not clunky as fuck in its first iteration?
>>322135850
>yeah no, theres a reason their rich and youre not
haha O WOW
>>322135746
Pretty sure some countries have banned them because they can't be used on sidewalks since they're motorized, and they can't be used on streets since they're slow and unsafe in traffic.
>>322135850
>check Gizmodos homepage
>see this
how many of you own these
>>322136052
What are these exactly?
>>322133230
That's sort of the point of technology for humans, isn't it?
>You can never slice through the thick flesh and hide of a mammoth and pierce it's heart for a clean kill
>You can never become several thousand degrees in temperature to melt down metals and ore
>You can never kill over a thousand people in a single instant spread throughout a city and destroy most of the buildings too
>You can never go into space through the power of your own muscles nor survive.
>>322136187
based on that picture I'd say wetsox
>>322136187
tactical footwear
>>322135850
2-5k is generous, the Arcaboard is 20k. So I think Lexus will be near that price
>>322135850
The only place that hoverboard works is literally that same place the video was taken place
>>322135746
I live in Toronto Canada and saw someone riding a segway recently.
>>322134969
And you'll need somewhere the floor is made out of solid metal ride it.
>>322134806
Because in reality, you are the autistic one
>>322136361
>The only place that hoverboard works is literally that same place the video was taken place
you say that as if Will Smith and Rosie O Donnel cant have the same set built in their backyards
>>322134969
This thing is super fucking cool.haha
>>322136773
I wonder if Mike was embarrassed when he fell haha
>>322135934
it designed to only run on copper, like the way it works requires copper to underneath it at all times. It's not something they can just get over ethier, the form of magantism they're using needs copper to work.
>>322136187
Probably a waterproof sock made out of goretex or a similar material, with a silly toe separation.
Regular goretex socks are pretty comfy when you'll walking through deep water and such.
>>322136863
He's right, m80.
>>322137125

Holy kek my sides

I'm black, but that file name is fucking hilarious.
>>322137815
People die all the time slipping on ice.
>>322137815
yes? Look at how tyson fell. his head falls way faster than 6mph. And falling from behind, any solid item on the floor would have obliterated his spine.that speed is already enough to crack a skull like an egg if he was to fall on concrete

>Be friends with a kid in elementary school for years
>One day he's being stupid

>Slams his head
>Apparently has had permanent brain damage since
You'd be surprised how much one fall on a hard surface can do
>>322133230
Technology has done many things I never will
play video games for example
>>322137815
Incredible reasoning here, do you think when you fall over (for any reason) your head will start 4 inches above the ground that your rate of collapse will be 6mph?
>>322137125
why do I always see nogs using this?
>>322135934
Lightbulbs. The first one that fucker made is still working.
>>322137125
how do you even use these? it looks like he's just standing on it but the device can rotate / go in reverse and move forward
>>322138835
That wasn't the first one, it was the first one that wasn't useless.
>>322138958
weight shifting
>>322138958
Pull your weight into certain directions and it will know where you want to go.

Where are the videos of people twerking on these
>>322140232
>those kids at 1:00
This is the only acceptable way this thing should be used
>>322140232
>The guy at the gym
I laughed harder than I should have.
>>322137125
I'd buy one of these just for keks but I hear they keep exploding and setting houses on fire.
>>322133230
Oh hey i saw this on the front page of reddit too :)!
Did you upvote it? i did!
>>322142189
That didn't stop people from buying Nvidia.
>>322142189
Just buy one from Razer.
The only ones that explode are the cheapo knockoffs from China.
>>322135850

kekAmericans don't like to admit it but success requires not just will and skill but also a good deal of luck.

I hate vine and "longscreen" shooting so much.
>>322142280
Top kek
>>322135660
Yeah because being hit by a car that passes red is your fault.
This is what third worlders believe.
>>322133230
They were trying to push that shit hard over the last few months.

Sometimes it feels bad having all the systems you want
>>322133457
Came into this thread to make a dildo joke, was not disappointed by the nob. Stay beautiful /v/
>>322138526
Wow. I hope Karma comes to get you really hard. I'll pray something really bad happens to you, if it didn't happen already.

That said, the floors would be pretty pricey to build.

For some reason black people love these things.
