>>8000958Dont know why but this makes me feel cozyLike im just going for a drive at night
Didn't have gauges. Here's a bump with comfy vibe tho
I guess this isn't exactly the right aesthetic.
>>8009365Based and retro-pilled.>>8010594I too drive on two wheels. Zh2 here.
>>8004667Sigh... America's dead dreams.I wish I could go back in time to tell all those space program engineers that their life's work will just end up in museums and in less than 50 years, the species will completely give up on spaceflight. Money and race will become more important than anything else and will drown out every other pursuit.
>>8012002It took us about 8,000 years to go to space. 50 years isn't even a drop in the bucket.
>>8012002>in less than 50 years, the species will completely give up on spaceflightBut that's not true even right now.
>>8012021You aren't thinking about this right. Through industrialization we consumed the one time use energy ladder from wood to nuclear. That won't have a chance to reform before the planet becomes uninhabitable.Put another way, if you put 18th century human on a planet with today's oil situation, they never would make the leap from coal to oil. The oil would be impossible for their technology to access. In their day oil would shoot out of the ground if you dug a shallow well, in our day you need to be able to build and operate fracking or deep sea oil rigs. It costs nearly a barrel of oil in energy to get a barrel out of the ground. So this brief window we have had for the past 100 years or so. That is the only chance life gets.
>>8012070Space is still happening, doomer.
>>8012070All the more reason why we need zero point vacuum energy systems put into mainstream global production and usage right now.Thing is, the technology, and knowledge of how to make that work, is already out there, it's all just been locked away from public access for the last 100 years or so by the lobbyists for the various existing energy production companies (coal, oil, gas, solar, nuclear, etc.) and their political allies, all because there's no way to meter individual energy usage in a zero point vacuum energy system in the same way that you get a gas or electricity bill today, thus the energy companies and governments can't make any money from it, while at the same time such systems would immediately reduce the energy consumption costs for the production and transportation of just about everything from food to clothes to cars to spaceships down to just about zero.
>>8012470You fundamentally misunderstand vacuum energy. Yes, vacuum has a certain amount of energy, but because that is the same everywhere it is useless.Imagine you have a set of lakes that are connected to each other via canals that can be closed off. If the water levels differ in the different lakes you can install water wheels or something that will extract energy from the flow of water between the lakes. But if the water level is the same everywhere there's no way to extract any energy, regardless how high the water level is.That is the conundrum we have with this vacuum energy. If you want to extract it you need a place with less energy than the vacuum, but there is no such place inside our universe.
>>8012476Also if you do manage to extract energy from the vacuum that means the vacuum was metastable and you will cause a chain reaction as the vacuum collapses to the lower energy state in the entire universe. Basically a second big bang

There's a WP i've been looking for so long I think it's completely lostIt's a really high definition photo of the cockpit of a F-117AIf someone has it or has something similar to that, please share it
>>8016834Is this a gauge cluster from a VW?
>>8017607yesmk4presumably an R32maybe a gti
>>8003206Lovely Crown Vicky
>>8012476 >>8012070 Better post than what you see on /sci/. It's depressing and it's exactly like that. If a global cataclysm wipes modern civilization out, we will never see things like cars, skyscrapers, computers, airplanes etc. again. >>8012445 >>8012470 Read John Horgan's "The End of Science".
>>8019221You're looking at a time where more countries are launching space programs than any other point in history and complaining that space is over already.
>>8012470>the technology, and knowledge of how to make that work, is already out theresource?or is it completely baseless speculation and jumping to conclusions?genuinely interestedany examples or proof at all i would greatly love to read, even if just for entertainment purposes
>>8010918Nice.CB300R here, matt blue with chromed rims.Will soon level up.
>>8016834>>8017607>>8018463Specifically, this one right here.
>>8009365I owned this car many years ago. I still miss it.
>>8012002we need to pool our resources to stop the mexicans from crossing our border and tekkin our jerbs
>>8012002>sighFuck off faggot.
I am an idiot and selected the wrong photo
This isn't brilliant in terms of ratio, but I took it recently and thought it might fit, and I liked how it turned out, all things considered.
>>8033376Welp, it just flipped the image 90 degrees. Anyone want to suggest a fix? I'm guessing it's due to the size of the pic itself, but resizing it through nomacs will probably be even more shit.Awesome.
>>8033468
>>8033469
>>8033468There would never be a better time in Subaru's design than the late 90s-mid 2000s. Even the clusters scream clean.
>>8027398god i love steam gauges so much
>>8000962Bro what freaking car is that? the gauge cluster is so sexy
>>8023458larp
>>8000962>>8049808most probably a R-something Mercedes, from 250sl to 450sl, or a w123/w126 chassis. I had one for 5 years, my god, what a cluster. It was a w123 300d td om617 engine. It's a common sight in all of the 1979-1993 Mercedes Benz
>>8051264> 46.5 mph> 6750 rpmFucking move up a gear already

Ironically I just came to /wg/ to find a wallpaper for my diesel monitor's gauge cluster. Probably a chubby American 2d girl to suit the truck.
>>8049871>>8049808It's a BMW E12 5 series
>>8002034>the crudely pasted in low-res legsGets me every fuckin time I see this>>8004663This one uses em too.
>>8072973The space picture is using that exact screenshot as the source for the legs and arm.
>>8072996Well yeah. I didn't say it didn't. Just that they're the same.What doesn't make sense, is the dude painted over part of the arm and the right leg, but left the ultra low res thigh on the left.Or you know, how the dude just used some shitty photoshop as his source reference.

more non car analog stuff?

>>8084155
>>8012470Zero point vacuum energy is a meme currently, you can't harness energy out of a quantum vacuum for practical application because the energy coefficient is both minuscule and also distributed over a vast interstellar distance. That the energy exists at all through the process of entropy is interesting on its own but it would take a K2 civilization at a minimum to even consider collecting it on a galactic scale.
Here's a shitty pic of me almost blowing up the engine in my old Corolla
I really hate that the gauge in my car is just a screen now

OC from a colorado cluster I'm reverse engineering rn. Could be wallpaper quality with better angle/some editing maybe?

OC, whoever knows the car gets 10 billion points
>>8115724Another one>inb4 anon clean your windshield
>>8115726This makes me miss long road trips at night by myself. Putting on some good music and just staring down the headlights seeing the light fade as the sunsets.
>>8115724Thats a Mitsubishi Lancer F from the 90s or at least something similar. It was my family's first car but ours didn't have an rpm readout. That car is the main reason why I still prefer japanese cars.
>>8115724Toyota Hilux 1986-1988 model. USA sold.
>>8116925Sounds like you should take a couple hours this week to go for an evening drive>>8116986This car actually is Japanese! They make my favorite gauges by far, simple readable and well arranged >>8117067You're super close, you're right about the manufacturer but not the model. This is a 1985 so they probably share most of the same gauges

>>8012070your heart is in the right place but talking points are mostly wrong.you should make more of an effort to read up on this via scientific journals rather than advocacy groups' web sites, or listening to uni activists.
>>8103354good god
>>8012470Think about it a bit. Compare the gain that the totality of the energy market would lose by switching to this "free" form of energy you claim, then compare it against every single other industry that relies on energy consumption. Do you really believe that the former can actually weild power over the latter?
>>8033377No. 4chan hates phonefags for some reason and intentionally rotates phonefag pictures because the goal is to make 4chan unusable dogshit
