Hillary is a downer cuck that needs to stfu and gtfo. Nobody cares what she has to say. She's done enough. Please just fuck off and go make some insider trades or something.

There are low profile hex heads that exist for that same purpose though. Pretty much no need nowadays for slotted heads, except at very small scale.

Yeah, I've had hex strip before as well. It's always been on the smaller sizes for me though at least. Like sub M3 or 1/8" ish. And of course, cheap hex keys are just asking for it at those sizes. On the other hand, I've definitely never had a torx head strip out on me.

I agree. The vast majority of people don't know the difference, and have never used a pozidriv driver with a pozidriv screw. It is a vast improvement imo.

I'm seeing a lot of people here claiming that the Philips head was originally designed to cam out/strip to prevent a transfer of force sufficient to twist the head off. While I agree this does sound logically plausible, I could find no reference to such features in the original patent: https://patentimages.storage.googleapis.com/0f/28/e3/3e3075abbb9779/US2046837.pdf 🤷‍♂️

I read that the thing about them being designed to strip to prevent worse failure is just a myth. Or at least they weren't originally designed to. It said that the original patent never contained any feature for that. Wouldn't surprise me though if modern companies do use screws designed to strip to prevent disassembly/repair.

Nobody uses hub motors on production EVs yet as far as I'm aware due to the much higher unsprung mass this creates. That is to say it is a bunch more weight flopping around on the opposite end of the suspension from the frame. This leads to handling, ride quality and reliability issues. Rivian does at least use a 4 motor system though.

I'd assume adequate clothing means clothing that fits properly, and is appropriate for the climate and weather.

Sometimes I see homeless people wearing shoes that look way to big for them and I'm guessing it's because that was the closest they could find that fit on their feet so they just had to go with that. It's really not adequate though because it could be a tripping hazard.

Didn't expect to watch the entire video but I did. Interesting and informative, thanks.

There are so many details which are being thrown out here in order for you to lump those two quotes and events together like that and call them the same. I'm no genius at reading comprehension and even I can see that! I think you need to spend an additional 5 minutes reading about the two wars, and then some.
