It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

Having very not read the article, does it mention the speed? Maybe all the effort is just getting the thing to move at all, and it only goes at roughly walking pace

It does!

Is the speed a Fibonacci number?

[–] partial_accumen@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Its not a secret. Its in the article.

Well go on then, don't keep the not-secret a secret!

LOOOOOL

This is well done. Sadly, the number is what's needed, not the link 🤷

[–] partial_accumen@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Oh, no worries! Just click on that link and you see it right on your screen! Its THAT easy!

[–] Presently42@lemmy.ca -1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Waaaah! Amazing! Can you show me the way? Maybe a little sneak peak of the number?

Of course, friend!

Once you click on the link, you'll see the article. I'll even do the hard part for you of finding it. Its the fourth sentence in the article. You'll find the answer there. I helpfully took a screenshot even put a black box where you need to look for your answer.

I hope that helps!
