Yea, and also, like - the human eye is incredibly good at noticing any deviation from perfectly flat, especially if you're talking about a semi-reflective bare-metal surface. Any little imperfection will immediately draw your eye because light bounces off it weird. There's a reason every car manufacturer ever only evokes the sense of flatness, but usually incorporates some more complex bends, light lines, stuff that both serves stability functions, helps when the panel will inevitably contract or extend due to thermal differences annnnd makes you not see little imperfections in the geometry as easily.

Large flat surfaces also create a shitton of drag, which makes driving at high speeds a pain in the ass.

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
