The Time Machine is Operational Again

I have to keep this short — not because I’m disinterested in reaching out, shilling for my premium service, or because I have few things to say. Quite the contrary — as I’m fully capable of doing all of that indefinitely. But I have a job at home now — chauffeur — ferrying people to and fro — patiently waiting for their shopping experiences to be completed and enjoyed. Cucked the fuck out and beat the fuck down.

The hostile heat endured from Oct-Dec of 2018 tested the Exodus algorithms and now we have all of that beautiful data to cross reference against. This is important because it was the very worst technical environment for stocks since 2008. That is not my opinion — but a fact that was measured by my algorithms.

So what do we have now?

My 3 month algorithm is a fucking printing press. I told you this would happen and now it’s here. Soon, the 3 mo algo will move to the 6, then 12, and finally 36. Just know, we registered OS last week and have gone straight up since then — nailed to the exact fucking day.

Now go fuck yourselves and drown in your bullshit wine and charts. “The Fly” has work to do, people to ferry, liberties to be pardoned.

    Self-supporting run-flat tires are now common on light trucks and passenger cars and typically provide for the vehicle to drive for 50 miles (80 km) at around 50 miles per hour (80 km/h). However, if the tires are subject to this kind of misuse, wheels may become damaged in the process, and repair may be impossible or unsafe, especially if the tire is punctured in the sidewall or at the edge of the tread. These tires carry a 20 to 40 percent weight penalty over similar standard tires and the thicker sidewall also means higher rolling resistance, which reduces the vehicle’s fuel economy.[4] However, the weight penalty of the induvidual tire is usually more than compensated by the fact that the vehicle need no longer carry a spare, as well as the equipment needed to swap in the spare. The thicker sidewall however results in more road imperfections filtering through the tire to the rim and hence to the car, which results in a harsher ride.[5]

    Standards of performance[edit]
    The basic benefit of using run-flat tires is continued mobility in case of a loss of air pressure, due either to a ‘normal’ puncture or to a hostile deliberate act including a bullet strike while the vehicle is traveling at high speed. Performance criteria are therefore in terms of distance and speed at which the vehicle can escape without becoming immobile and the steering control over the vehicle during this process.
    The usual standard of performance, especially for military or security vehicles, are the Finabel standards.
    Market share[edit]
    Run-flat tires accounted for less than 1% of replacement tire sales in the U.S. in 2005. In 2006, it was expected that such tires would gain popularity with armored vehicle manufacturers, but growth figures were slow with one major model, the Michelin PAX System, no longer being developed by the manufacturer (though replacements will be produced for the foreseeable future).[6] A Michelin study released in 2008 found that 3 percent of drivers worldwide want run-flat tires. U.S. market share is well below 1 percent. American Honda Motor Co. announced that the 2009 Honda Odyssey Touring and Acura RL were its last models available with run-flat tires and with Honda no longer using run-flats. This leaves only a handful of volume manufacturers offering them as standard fittings and only on some models. An exception is BMW, who are the largest fitter of run-flats as original equipment.[4]
    Former US President Barack Obama’s presidential limo, “the Beast”, had Goodyear Kevlar lined run-flat tires.[7]
    Factors contributing to small market share[edit]
    Besides the cost, which can be more than double other tires of comparable size, run-flat tires can not be run flat if the flat is due to sidewall damage, a common cause of flats. Also, under the best circumstances, the speed and range that the run-flat tires can be run flat is very limited. Run-flat tires cannot be driven over 50 miles per hour and usually offer only up to 50 miles of extended mobility. These limitations lower the value of the extra expense for many buyers. In certain applications, depending on the vehicle, specific tire design, and driving surface, a run-flat tire can provide from 25 miles to 200 miles driving while flat with limited speed.

    edge, my diatribe was straight copy and paste from Wikipedia. It was metaphorical, (and synchronistic for me, surprisingly), posted in relation to M. Fly’s by-line article and lesson. I’m glad your wife has AAA; I do as well. I can change a tire if I have to but I’d rather let someone else do it. AAA has become very expensive though. I do have the 200 mile tow. My mechanic and body shop guys are geniuses and don’t rip me off.
