have you ever wondered what effect sex ratio has on everything around us ??
No, and not too sure what you mean exactly.
But I guess the recent half of my life has been severely tilted to the male side of a gender ratio, through school and university choices. And look where I have ended up...

The term sex ratio is the ration of males to females in a population
Just wanted to know what, in your opinion, effect has sex ratio on social interactions, 'dating', marriage etc.

It makes all the difference, supply and demand... when something is in short supply, value is artifically inflated.
When women are in short supply, men have to make the effort - which means that pending world war III, we're going to have to come across things like this and pretend to tolerate them:

Lmao, JSR
. But that's true, supply and demand certainly applies.

That's incredible. Such great attention to detail. Looks like he used a section of graduated cylinder for the glass part. Would be cool to see it running in slow motion with a high-speed camera...

Great find, definitely needs to be filmed in high speed!
If I understood correctly it's literally "running on fumes", working of evaporated fuel from the tank... that could have implications for a full auto combustion/hybrid.
Rambo certainly had made something similar work:

i thought youd be on this one like a gunshot,
i was honstly pretty disappointed by the results the gun is a master piece engineering wise and looks, just didnt seem to perform.
yes thats what i was thinking, iv got the same issue shooting empty soda bulbs. was thinking that i could drill them out and cast lead into the heads to hold them true in the air.
