Is there a law against displaying your license plate number in a different designed plate? say, if I copy the number into a blank piece of cardboard and keep the plate in my trunk?
Could they deploy the airbags? or is there a fail safe to them?
At about 33:40 into the video, when they were describing the engine, I noticed that upon combustion the exhaust(?) valve opens a bit, and at the exhaust stroke the valve is pushed upwards rather than opened by the camshaft. Can anyone explain this?
Before the original film was released, there were proof of concept animations showing what Optimus would look like as a cab over.
2:25 Helicopters attack with their gatlings?! I didn't know that. I thought they just used rifles from the sides.
A quick google search reveals that he's never lapped the track in the Cee apostrophe dee. He spun off in the lacetti though and thus is at the bottom of that one's leaderboard.
This brings me to my question: Wouldn't it be much simpler, now that we have the technology, to change the hydraulic actuators for electronic ones, controlled by the TCU (transmission control unit)? It would add simplicity to the device, while it would be controlled manually, like a double clutch. Anyone care to…
Hang on, so does that mean that in flappy paddle manual automatics, the inputs from the shift changes only switch actuators that change the gear ratios? Hmm... that makes a whole lot of sense.

Why are Americans always so paranoid about their government turning against them? Isn't the government supposed to be in place to protect their citizens? Furthermore, don't you think that, in the event that the govt turned against the population, the population would have much bigger numbers? After all, people who…
