  • The signup bonuses can be pretty large depending on your placement exam.

    When I was a young dumb 18 year old that wanted to be a doctor, I thought the army would be a good way to do that debt free.

    They offered me something like 25 grand if I signed up that day.

    That’sa lot of cash for an 18 year old.

  • Get your outside coil cleaned.

    If the system is big enough for the house, there should be no reason it can’t maintain under 80 degrees unless something is wrong with it.

    Check the filter in the house and check the outside coil for dirt and debris.

  • I don’t think you really grasp how much pressure 10,000 psi is.

    A typical car tire is like 35 psi

    A propane tank for a grill is like 200 psi.

    Have you ever seen a car tire burst? Or a propane tank? Big booms, they can easily hurt or kill people already.

    A hydrogen tank would be 50 times more pressure than a regular tank of fuel, and 300 times more pressure than a tire. If those burst, people will die, and have their bits spread around the neighborhood.

  • An industrial machine designed to handle 10,000 psi gas is a little different from a tank you’d take to a BBQ.

    A fuel station will also get resupplied regularly, so any small leaks are no big deal, as there will be a shipment of fresh fuel coming in a regular schedule. Your BBQ tank of hydrogen likely will need to be refilled regularly even if you don’t use it, as any valve that would be cheap enough to mass produce is not going to be able to keep hydrogen in for months while it sits in the garage.

    Then there’s also the fact that most uses for gaseous hydrogen require the above 10,000 psi storage pressure. This allows a useful amount of hydrogen to be stored in a non-comically large container. 2 problems I see with this:

    1.) a 10,000 psi container is fucking terrifying. If that things bangs into something and ruptures, it going to send shrapnel through a house.

    2.) a propane like tank can be opened to the Atmosphere and does not have a regulator built into the tank because most people don’t know how to actually use a regulator. So a 10,000 psi tank with just a hand valve between the user and a jet of gas that can send the tank into the stratosphere does not sound like something that should be available at your local hardware store.

  • Don’t forget the part where you buy all of the extremely hazardous acid before the apocalypse.

    And then remember to do the wiring of your shelter before you breath in all the acid and lead fumes.

    Get the order wrong there and you’re just gonna burn all your tanks of acid.

  • Because this is probably the best challenge to qualified immunity that’s ever been available.

    Complete and utter dereliction of duty.

    They even ignored their own department’s procedure on responding to an active shooter, so they can’t argue it wasn’t in their duty to stop the shooter, or they didn’t know how.

  • There’s a shocking number of people who will just go off into the woods with their clothes and a phone.

    I went hiking with a date once who expected to be fine walking a ten mile trail with no water bottle. Some people have no real world experience of how much water you need when you’re exerting yourself for hours on end.
