I'd say it's used semi frequently in skate photography. Typically a close shot with a wide lens. The tilt might be to realign the viewer with the skaters body position and show the extreme angle of the trick.

Yup. And the ability to feel nothing was a super power.

Haha I love the name, but it'd be really annoying having to explain the spelling each time. Will have to suss the tune out later

This has just made me wonder what the distance around the coastline of this land mass is and how long it would take to travel it via various means.

I hear they permanently implanted a contact mic in her nuckles so the audience can feel like they are the sternum itself.

I'm a daily rider/commuter by motorcycle and I'd love to get an electric bike. I don't think I'd miss shifting gears at all, but (and I've been thinking about this) I think I'd like to have some kind of electric "clutch" that doesn't work at all like a regular clutch but performs a similar function. In this case it would adjust the throttle map. Clutch full in = throttle does nothing. Clutch full out = aggressive or linear throttle map. I have not actually ridden any of the high end e-motos to know if this is necessary, but in my mind I would miss the ability to feather the clutch.
