So, I have a vision for tfa. Here me out:
Warframes take a lot of damage, there's a chance that international equipment gets damaged and/or malfunctions and if the spike systems malfunctions, making their spike pop out mid battle and they have a big spike, it's very bad!
That's a very big sensitive target that could get shot or torn off!
Solution: Warframe Spikes are tiny. Smaller than most Autobots spikes. There basically an extra large node that spirts transfluid.
This of course affects Warframe valves as well. They are compact little things. Small, tight and very stretchy so that a Chucky bitlit can come out nice and easy. As a side effect they basically hug any spike that enters them from a fellow Warframes little spikelet to a nice big Autobot spike.
I think Optimus should tease Megatron about his little spike, it's the same side as one of Ops fingers. So small, if Megatron's spike is big for a Warframe, it's no wonder he's moaning and whining so much when a proper mech decides to Spike him. He has such a nice valve too, so small and sweet and stretching around Optimus spike.
Hmmm~, Small spiked Decepticons Warframes get sexually bullied by Big Spiked Civilian framed Autobots. 💜
oughh... Big bots with tiny itty bitty spikes, my only weakness... also, we're finally switching the classic trope for tfa megop where Optimus struggles to take Megatron's huge cock. Now it's Megatron who's struggling. Or at the very least, he's a panting, squirming mess. He's never taken a spike this big, in fact he'd always considered civilian frame spikes unnecessarily frivolous and disgusting, but his little autobot is quickly changing his mind...

You know how tech seems to always be getting smaller and sleeker? Apply that to transformers. Young bots with cute little smooth spikes and older ones with big hefty textured spikes. Young bots flocking to the older ones for a chance of the valve rearranging "ribbed for their pleasure" experience...
Young bots showing off their cute little spikes, "look how compact mine is" "but look how much smoother mine is!"... All teasing the older bots for their chunky, textured spikes... Don't worry, the old mechs will have those brats panting and drooling all over the nearest table pretty soon! Teach those bots how clunky and useless their spike really is.

Taking it back to 2003 with this Tenzo R sponsored Civic EG. Tenzo R was a US company that popped up during the early tuner days that specialized in knock-off parts. They made wheels, valve covers, seats, and more. What's funny is that these parts became popular in Japan during the Spocom (sport compact) boom. Oh, the EG is on air suspension, I forgot to mention that.

Mazda Familia GT-R review
Mazda Familia/GT-R
This is Mazda's cash cow Familia's WRC entry machine!
This Familia GT-R is also a rally model. By distributing the driving force unevenly between the front and rear, it has eliminated the disadvantage of 4WD vehicles when driving around curves. Of course, it also ensures practicality as a compact two-box vehicle at an above-average level.
Vehicle configuration
-What is the positioning of this car?
Positioned as Familia's top-of-the-line car
Familia is a popular car that has established a solid market share. The GT-R is the top-of-the-line model. The GT-R is a sports car developed from Familia with the aim of participating in rally races. It is difficult to demonstrate technical features in this class, but Mazda is asserting the uniqueness of the GT-R by equipping it with a full-time 4WD system exclusive to the GT-R.
Naturally, the GT-R is only available with one engine: the 1800cc inline 4-cylinder DOHC turbo, which produces a maximum output of 180 horsepower in the GT-X but increased to 210 in the GT-R. The body is only available as a 3-door hatchback.
Equipment & Mecha
Here are the noteworthy equipment and mechanisms!
Improved driving performance by changing torque distribution between front and rear wheels
In addition to the GT-R, the Familia also has other full-time 4WD models available, but Mazda classifies the GT-R and GT-X as sports 4WDs, and the other 4WD models as lifestyle 4WDs.
Naturally, the full-time 4WD system used in the GT-R is different from other 4WD vehicles, and mechanically it has a center differential with a viscous coupling-type LSD which distributes driving force unevenly between the front and rear wheels at 43:57.
The engine is a 1800cc inline 4-cylinder DOHC 16-valve turbocharged engine with a horsepower output of 210. The figures may seem a little ordinary, but when you use it to its full potential, it still feels thrilling to drive.
The appeal of 4WD driving!
The compact body and crisp driving are appealing
The uneven torque distribution of 45:57 between the front and rear is exactly the same as that used by Lancia, the multiple-time rally champion, in its Delta. The main advantage of this is that it makes it easier for the car to turn around curves, and this is also evident in the Familia GT-R.
In any case, the Familia GT-R shows a finish that doesn't make you feel any datedness when it first debuted when it comes to its movement around curves. There is no impression that it has any particularly advanced mechanisms, but when you turn the steering wheel, the car changes direction instantly and faithfully.
This feeling of being able to ride a bike is likely to be hard to give up for those who are still strongly sport-oriented.
The DOHC 16 valve + turbo engine also shows easy-to-handle characteristics. As expected, the feeling at low revolutions is a little inferior compared to the turbo engines that have appeared in the past few years, but the powerful feeling after the turbo starts to work is very stimulating.
The compact body, powerful engine, and full-time 4WD system, which is no longer innovative but delivers an outstanding driving experience, all of these elements come together perfectly to give the Familia GT-R a performance that still feels like it can compete at the front line.
PIC CAPTIONS
→The engine's distinctive feature is that it runs smoothly up to high speeds.
←1800 DOHC turbo that delivers a maximum output of 215 horsepower.
Check the room!
The interior design shows signs of age.
The age of the design is most evident in the interior. The design around the instrument panel, which skillfully combines straight lines and curves, certainly left a sophisticated impression when it was first released, but unfortunately it is difficult to be satisfied with it today, both in terms of design and texture.
The comfort around the rear seats is not particularly satisfactory, not only in this GT-R, but in all Familia cars.
PIC CAPTIONS
→Design aside, the instrument panel is highly practical.
↑The driver's seat is firm and comfortable, so you won't get tired easily.
rival
This is the rival car in terms of driving!!!!!
The company is losing ground to new rivals.
The Lancer and other models are the first cars that should be mentioned as rivals, but the differences in design are obvious. The Familia GT-R's driving is certainly sporty enough to stir the spirit of sport, but it can no longer compete with the Lancer in terms of ultimate punch, and it also cannot compete with the Familia in terms of quietness and vibration.
The GT-R's DOHC turbo engine is far ahead of the competition.
Even though it is a full-time 4WD system, the Familia GT-R's center differential system gives a rough driving feel when compared to the many sports 4WD cars currently on the market. The car's greatest appeal was its crisp and natural handling on curves, but the reason for this is that so many sports 4WDs that surpassed it have appeared in a short period of time. Unfortunately, when trying to enjoy serious sports driving, there are many dissatisfaction points with the body rigidity and suspension design. With the Familia itself due for a full model change soon, it seems a bit harsh to ask for such things, but it is a shame that the car's basic design was not fully developed.
PIC CAPTIONS
↑Compared to newer cars like the Lancer, the age of the design is obvious overall.

413 Max Wedge
On April 13th, or 413, which HOT ROD proclaims as 413 Max Wedge Day. Although the 413ci version of Mopar’s tall-deck big-block saw use in everything from Dodge dump trucks to Plymouth sedans, the real hero of the earlier RB engines was the 413 Max Wedge, Chrysler’s answer to the growing factory support for drag racers and stock car racers in the late-1950s, and onto the early muscle car era. The wedge name came from the wedge-shaped combustion chambers, which moved away from the Hemi’s hemispherical heads. Dodge and Plymouth found that taking a tunnel ram, and bending it over the valve covers gave the 413 tuned-length runners in a more compact form. In 1962, Dodge and Plymouth released the Maximum Performance Wedge, or Max Wedge, for short. Depending on year and configuration, Chrysler claimed that the Max Wedge produced anywhere from 410-425 hp. How well did Mopar’s early factory race engine do? Well… that’s fairly solid history, but we’re here to help.
To celebrate 413 day, we’re throwing you some of our favorite 413ci big-block stories – everything from how to build them, to what they raced in, and who hot rodded them:

Okay hear me out. Megatron fragging Rosie after that exchange. Wanting to mark her up. Him being a tad insecure because Ratchet hit nerves. Give. Now.
I can do that. Because I agree it probably hit a few nerves. -Rosie It'll be under the cut as usual. Warnings: Mass Displacement, Creampies, Possessive Megatron, Human and Bot Sticky Interfacing. IDW Continuity Technically.
"R-ight there, fuck, ahhh..." she was singing again. Just for him.
His encounter with Ratchet had him overcompensating. He couldn't believe the nerve of that mech. His vents heated the air around them as his digits dug into that spot inside of Rosie. He was greedy, he trusted very few around his human.
"Don't stifle yourself. I want to hear you." he said leaning over her small frame, "No need to be shy."
He wanted to be rougher, so much rougher. He wanted her to be so sore and exhausted she couldn't make it to the med bay. But, he was being as gentle as he could for her in the moment. Enjoying the fact only he could make her feel like this. Only he could make her sing like this. He shifted her legs and pressed even deeper. He watched as her head fell back. His spike would be in her soon enough. He had grabbed some energon earlier just so he could do this. He couldn't be satisfied by just tasting her today. He needed to be inside of her.
"Megatron~" she whined as his digit brushed a sensitive spot few could reach inside of her.
He smirked, "Again." he said wanting the validation it was his name she was moaning. And he was blessed with his request being answered. His other digit idly played with her enlarged clit, some humans were very similar in some aspects and he took advantage of it.
"What do you want?" his engine revved as he vented again, hot air filling the room.
"I to cum... overload... please I-I can't take this much more." she begged almost sobbing from over-stimulation. "Not so f-aaast." He smirked licking her lubricant from his digit. He let her rest for the moment as he focused his form. Compacting down with mass displacement was never easy and it had it's limits. He could only get down to perhaps a bit smaller than Starscream's size, but focused on his Spike and valve to being just large enough so she could take him without worry.
He chuckled moving the hair from her face, "I waited too long for this." he hummed.
He had never taken this sort of action with her. He was always worried about hurting her. But, today he needed to mark her. He needed to make damn sure other mechs knew who her cybertronian partner was.
"Y-you're smaller." she watched as she caught her breath.
"Mass displacement dearspark. You deserve a proper night with me."
He watched as her eye lit up and she nodded. Her enthusiasm helped his nerves, he had never displaced in such a way. So, he was glad it would not be wasted. He gently brought her to his face and kissed her gently. His panel retracted and revealed his pressurized spike. He left bite marks along her shoulders as he began to position her in his servos. And in one careful movement he buried himself inside of her.
"F-fuck. Frag... " she gasped and grabbed onto whatever part of him that she could.
He had done his job well if it was that easy. And he took pride in it. He watched as she arched into the berth below her and moaned. He noted the small bulge in her abdomen and smirked. He bent over her as they found their pace. Only shifting when her legs finally gave up and she begged him for more. He pressed her legs over into a press so he could press himself deeper into her valve. No, pussy that's the term she had used before.
"I waited so long for this. Primus... mine. Mine." he felt his resolve slip. His insecurities falling out of his intake, "My Rosie. Frag."
"Please, harder, I'm so close already, frag please." her voice sang out.
A thought crossed his circuits, but he decided to hold back on that for now. He would approach that subject of sparkbonding later. He focused instead on pounding into her poor pussy and making her feel good. He could feel the sensation building in his bipedal cord and he held it back.
"Overload for me. Show me I'm the only mech who can make you feel this way." his voice dropped low as he growled.
He felt her flutter around his spike and smirked, that was new. He kissed her where he could. His massive frame overshadowed hers as he pulled her hips in more.
"I'll make them question how you're not sparked." he breathed as his vents hissed again, "Come on dearspark."
In the moment he watched her come undone her pussy clamping around his spike. She practically screamed out his name. And in a few more rushed thrusts he overloaded in her. He felt another orgasm hit her as she milked him of all his transfluid. He caught his breath for a moment before immediately checking in on her. His digits caressed her face gently. He watched her blissed out face come back to this reality and smirked.
"Mmmm so good. Full..." she managed to breathe out, "I love you..."
His spark throbbed violently and he leaned in to kiss her face, "I love you too."
He smiled as he felt his insecurities melt. Those words meant more than anything else. He carefully pulled his depressurized spike from her and carefully cleaned the mess they had made. He watched as she fully came to and sit up.
She smiled at him as he returned to his original size and scooped her up in a blanket. He knew she would need a bath and started to walk the direction it was.
"Ratchet give you trouble?" she murmured as she ran her hands over the marks he left.
Megatron chuckled, "It doesn't matter. Not anymore."

How Does an RV Water Pump Work?
An RV water pump is a crucial component of an RV's water system, designed to supply pressurized water to faucets, showers, and other appliances. It ensures a consistent flow of water when the RV is not connected to an external water source, such as at a campsite.
Operation and Components The RV water pump is typically a 12-volt DC device powered by the RV’s battery system. It functions by drawing water from the fresh water tank and delivering it through the plumbing system. Key components of the pump include:
Diaphragm or Impeller: The heart of the pump, responsible for creating water pressure by moving water through the system.
Motor: A small electric motor that drives the pump mechanism.
Pressure Switch: This automatic switch activates or deactivates the pump based on water demand. When a faucet is opened, the drop in pressure triggers the pump to turn on. When the faucet is closed, the switch turns the pump off.
Check Valve: Prevents water from flowing backward into the fresh water tank.
How It Works
Water Supply: Water stored in the RV’s fresh water tank is the primary source.
Activation: When a faucet, shower, or other water outlet is opened, the pressure in the plumbing system drops. This signals the pressure switch to activate the pump.
Water Flow: The pump's motor drives the diaphragm or impeller, drawing water from the fresh water tank and pressurizing it to flow through the pipes.
Deactivation: When the faucet or outlet is closed, the pressure in the system increases, causing the pressure switch to turn the pump off.
Features and Benefits
Pressure Regulation: RV water pumps typically provide a steady pressure between 40 and 60 PSI, ensuring consistent water flow for various uses.
Compact Design: They are designed to fit within the limited space of an RV.
Energy Efficiency: Since the pump operates only when water is needed, it conserves energy and prolongs battery life.
Maintenance and Troubleshooting Regular maintenance is essential to ensure the longevity and proper functioning of an RV water pump. This includes:
Cleaning Filters: Preventing debris from entering the pump and clogging it.
Checking for Leaks: Inspecting hoses and connections for signs of wear or damage.
Winterization: Draining the pump and plumbing system during cold weather to prevent freezing and damage.
Common issues, such as the pump not turning on or losing pressure, can often be resolved by checking electrical connections, inspecting for air leaks, or cleaning the system.

Students strive for “Balance!” in a lively product showcase
New Post has been published on https://thedigitalinsider.com/students-strive-for-balance-in-a-lively-product-showcase/
Students strive for “Balance!” in a lively product showcase
Tumblr media Tumblr media
On an otherwise dark and rainy Monday night, attendees packed Kresge Auditorium for a lively and colorful celebration of student product designs, as part of the final presentations for MIT’s popular class 2.009 (Product Engineering Processes).
With “Balance!” as its theme, the vibrant show attracted hundreds of attendees along with thousands more who tuned in online to see students pitch their products.
The presentations were the culmination of a semester’s worth of work in which six student teams were challenged to design, build, and draft a business plan for a product, in a process meant to emulate what engineers experience as part of a design team at a product development firm.
“This semester, we pushed the six teams to step outside of their comfort zones and find equilibrium between creativity and technical rigor, all as they embarked on a product engineering process journey,” said 2.009 lecturer Josh Wiesman.
Trying to find a balance
The course, known on campus as “two-double-oh-nine,” marks a colorful end to the fall semester on campus. Each team, named after a different color, was given mentors, access to makerspaces, and a budget of $7,500 to turn their ideas into working products. In the process, they learned about creativity, product design, and teamwork.
Various on-stage demonstrations and videos alluded to this year’s theme, from balance beam walks to scooter and skateboard rides.
“Balance is a word that can be used to describe stability, steadiness, symmetry, even fairness or impartiality,” said Professor Peko Hosoi, who co-instructed the class with Wiesman this semester. “Balance is something we all strive for, but we rarely stop to reflect on. Tonight, we invite you to reflect on balance and to celebrate the energy and creativity of each student and team.”
Safety first
The student products spanned industries and sectors. The Red Team developed a respirator for wildland firefighters, who work to prevent and control forest fires by building “fire lines.” Over the course of long days in challenging terrain, these firefighters use hand tools and chainsaws to create fire barriers by digging trenches, clearing vegetation, and other work based on soil and weather conditions. The team’s respirator is designed to comfortably rest on a user’s face and includes a battery-powered air filter the size of a large water bottle that can fit inside a backpack.
The mask includes a filter and a valve for exhalations, with a hose that connects to the blower unit. Team members said their system provides effective respiratory protection against airborne particles and organic vapors as users’ work. Each unit costs $40 to make, and the team plans to license the product to manufacturers, who can sell directly to fire departments and governments.
The Purple Team presented Contact, a crash-detection system designed to enhance safety for young bicycle riders. The device combines hardware and smart algorithms to detect accidents and alert parents or guardians. The system includes features like a head-sensing algorithm to minimize false alerts, plus a crash-detection algorithm that uses acceleration data to calculate injury severity. The compact device is splashproof and dustproof, includes Wi-Fi/LTE connectivity, and can run for a week on a single charge. With a retail price of $75 based on initial production of 5,000 units, the team plans to market the product to schools and outdoor youth groups, aiming to give young riders more independence while keeping them safe.
On ergonomics and rehabilitation
The Yellow Team presented an innovative device for knee rehabilitation. Their prototype is an adjustable, wearable device that monitors patients’ seated exercises in real-time. The data is processed by a mobile app and shared with the patient’s physical therapist, enabling tailored feedback and adjustments. The app also encourages patients to exercise each day, tracks range of motion, and gives therapists a quick overview of each patient’s progress. The product aims to improve recovery outcomes for postsurgery patients or those undergoing rehabilitation for knee-related injuries.
The Blue Team, meanwhile, presented Band-It, an ergonomic tool designed to address the issue of wrist pain among lobstermen. With their research showing that among the 20,000 lobstermen in North America, 1 in 3 suffer from wrist pain, the team developed a durable and simple-to-use banding tool. The product would retail for $50, with a manufacturing cost of $10.50, and includes a licensing model with 10 percent royalties plus a $5,000 base licensing fee. The team emphasized three key features: ergonomic design, simplicity, and durability.
Underwater solutions
Some products were designed for the sea. The Pink Team presented MARLIN (Marine Augmented Reality Lens Imaging Network), a system designed to help divers see more clearly underwater. The device integrates into diving masks and features a video projection system that improves visibility in murky or cloudy water conditions. The system creates a 3D-like view that helps divers better judge distances and depth, while also processing and improving the video feed in real-time to make it easier to see in poor conditions. The team included a hinged design that allows the system to be easily removed from the mask when needed.
The Green Team presented Neptune, an underwater communication device designed for beginner scuba divers. The system features six preprogrammed messages, including essential diving communications like “Ascend,” “Marine Life,” “Look at Me,” “Something’s Off,” “Air,” and “SOS.” The compact device has a range of 20 meters underwater, can operate at depths of up to 50 meters, and runs for six hours on a battery charge. Built with custom electronics to ensure clear and reliable communications underwater, Neptune is housed in a waterproof enclosure with an intuitive button interface. The communications systems will be sold to dive shops in packs of two for $800. The team plans to have dive shops rent the devices for $15 a dive.
“Product engineers of the future”
Throughout the night, spectators in Kresge cheered and waved colorful pompoms as teams demonstrated their prototypes and shared business plans. Teams pitched their products with videos, stories, and elaborate props.
In closing, Wiesman and Hosoi thanked the many people behind the scenes, from lab instructors and teaching assistants to those working to produce the night’s show. They also commended the students for embracing the rigorous and often chaotic coursework, all while striving for balance.
“This all started a mere 13 weeks ago with ideation, talking to people from all walks of life to understand their challenges and uncover problems and opportunities,” Hosoi said. “The class’s six phases of product design ultimately turned our students into product engineers of the future.”

https://www.tumblr.com/mychlapci/771582906508460032/okay-but-i-actually-had-a-dream-about-chunky?source=share this drove me crazyy I read it before going into work and I got this beamed into my head. Typed it up on lunch break so its sloppy
"tell you what, Megatron," Optimus wraps his long legs, so much bulkier now, around Megatron's waist and pulls him closer, close enough to feel every meter of his plush thighs and soft belly pressing against megatron's plating. Such excess sets his processor ablaze for a moment with lust "give me that Allspark shard and pop out your spike, and I'll let you do exactly what you want with my fat aft."
"If you think I'll be tempted by this wanton and obscene and filthy display, Autobot, you're dead wrong," megatron growls , reveling in the flash of real fear that replaces that arrogant, smug look on that autobots soft face as megatron reaches back for a sword to stab through his miserable little overstuffed spark.
But unfortunately his spike has a mind of its own, betrays him by pressuring so hardly and so insistently it simply warps his panel out of the way, letting it rest heavily against the autobots soft, tempting belly, the tip dribbling fluid onto his soft fat rolls in a most humiliating way .
Optimus's fearful expression shifts right back to that infuriating smugness, as he laces his ankles together behind Megatron's back and moves his hips, letting—no, forcing Megatron's spike to sink into that awful and disgusting pudgy mesh, his plush lips pulled up into a smirk as he moans and pops his own panel, revealing his valve . It's just as excessive and full as the rest of him, an engorged red node peeking out between his fat, soaked valve lips. He's even got an untrimmed patch of wires covering his array, which send little zaps of excess charge through Megatron's spike as he moves his hands down to dig into those fat plush hips and ruts against him, forgetting almost everything else in the sudden overwhelming need to put a sparkling in this icon of fertility.
Optimus grins up at him, rounded cheeks flushed pink. He lets out a moan of pleasure, bringing his arms up to lace around megatrons neck, clearly intending to bring him down for a kiss—
Except he's chucking something behind Megatron's head to his teammate. Something small that glows bright blue with the essence of the Allspark ; Megatron's shard. The yellow compact doesn't even bother making a comment on what his leader and the Lord of the Decepticons are doing together, but his smug grin speaks even louder than his words would.
Megatron turns back to glower at Optimus and pull out his sword and finally stab it through his treacherous little Autobot spark, but his cheek meets a surprisingly strong fist and the punch that would usually make him laugh slams his processor out of alignment thanks to his heightened sensors. Sensors heightened due to arousal at this fat, awful little Autobot.
Optimus climbs to his pedes as megatron collapses, the sheen of Megatron's lubricant on that fat belly doing bad things to his processor and spike.
"Sorry that I didn't hold up my end of the bargain, maybe next time, Decepticon," Optimus calls out as he transforms and speeds off.
The pain is gone, the rage is still burning through Megatron's spark; he really should give chase to those filthy autobots and rip that allspark shard from their offline chassis.
But all he can do is drag a hand down his face, groan at the near-painful throbbing from his still incredibly erect spike, trying not to think about those words.
/Next time. Next time. Next time./ The autobot plans on doing this again, and he's going keep using his body as a weapon.
(tears off my shirt) HE EVEN HAS BUSH!!!!!
fat autobot pussy makes Megatron act unwise fr. and Optimus knows that. as long as he can keep giving Megatron painful boners there’s not a chance in hell the 'cons are getting their hands on the allspark :3
