Is it one plane flying into 5 sky scrappers?
Could we please include credit for webcomics?

OP is big on digital data preservation https://xkcd.com/1683/
Sorry about that, I found it somewhere else without credit and completely forgot the art style was from XKCD.
I’ll add it to the post.
fun fact: it’s illegal to not credit them! see the creative commons license at the bottom.
This community is awesome.
Just reverse image search. Good god people need their hands held for everything.

Alt text: I wonder how hard it would be to ride an electric scooter in a hamster ball.
I wonder how hard it would be to stop…
Why would I stop?
thats only 39 hamster balls, 0/10
Technically he only specified how many people. Some of those hamster balls are multi passenger
Speaking from experience?
It doesn’t say there are 50 hamster balls.
So uh, walking, buses, and bikes for the win?
The hamster balls also win for style points but that’s arguably walking with extra steps.
Fewer steps if you get going fast enough and just ride tumbling ass over tea kettle.
Why wouldn’t the wolves just eat everything?
Because they don’t like cabbages
Why are there only 39 hamster balls? Are some people sharing?
One of the lanes is a ball-pool lane.
…wonder how fast a 50-seater tandem bicycle could get going, assuming ideal conditions and riders.
How fast can it stop? I wouldn’t want to first heading against a crossing or wall with 49 people pushing the pedals behind me.
Chatgpt says
Professional Cyclists: Elite professional cyclists can produce power outputs of 300 to 400 watts during races, with peak efforts exceeding 1,000 watts for short bursts (like sprinting).
Time Trials and Climbs: During time trials or climbs, trained cyclists can maintain higher power outputs for extended periods, often around 350 to 450 watts for well-trained athletes.
But then it tells me 40km/h assuming 400W which is obviously wrong. I guess you’d have to model that “tandem” in CAD and simulate the airflow to get accurate drag numbers
If I wanted to ask ChatGPT, I would ask ChatGPT myself. You’re useless.
