Yeah I’m mostly just shitting on it for fun too. But the pistons don’t work very long without steel rings, wrist pins and big end bolts.

The problem is we have to bring copper, brass and other fancy metals in them though, because the all spin on oil cushion bearings. Unless we’re talking Babbitt bushings from the early 1900s.

You must have been lying close attention to see how they were triggered though.

Bug reports can be tough if you can’t repeat them. I’m glad you got some bonding time with littlie though, especially if you were on the clock.

That point of sale system seemed to handle this perfectly.

Most cars are still steel. Source I work on cars in New England. So much rust, even on the ones with aluminum bodies, at least wherever it can touch a dissimilar metal and becomes a battery.

And crucially the important parts that keep it from exploding (cylinder liners) and save you in a crash (crumple and bumper cores) are almost all steel. Because it deforms better with simpler engineering.

See also iron brakes in most cars hardened steel bearings everywhere.

Hello fellow gen-xer who remembers when fruit was a gentler version of the other f-word

This Old Tony (amazingly creative machining and engineering videos), look mum no computer, big Clive (quite technical electronics tho), hand tool rescue, and diresta are all good work/texhnical/engineering/craft based channels. Aging Wheels has evolved to much EV content, and has worked with technology connections. Our Own Devices has some interesting content too, but I’ve only seen a few of his videos.

The creeps are fucking creepy.

Does anyone find your stuff? Search engines seem to be less and less capable of finding indie websites and show most results for shopping and/or image results (ie the paid ones), or else if it’s a question it goes Reddit/quora/stack exchange before any search results.

I finally shut off my old self hosted Wordpress last year because traffic had dwindled to a couple hits a month or less. Besides the constant bot traffic trying to hijack the site.

Don’t forget to check under the cushions.

He eulogized a fictional cannibal serial killer and said he was a great guy. The bigotry and antisemitism is just latent in his brain and will come out more and more as his dementia removes whatever filters were left in his speech center.

And importantly, let the politicians actually get something other than fundraising done in a term.

And if you put them all in one state, say Mormons in Utah, the Ponzi scheme victims go through the roof.

How long till he tells us he remembers meeting George Washington? If Fox or Newsmax put a a Washington biopic on at 2 am I bet it would be in his speech the next afternoon.

The electoral college and 2 senators per state gives the Republicans a huge advantage.

2 of the last 3 Republican presidential election “wins” lost the popular vote.

Cornfields, prairie, and deserts have as much representation as NYC and LA.

No, that’s a tiny burger with a tablespoon of lobster meat on top. It costs $27.

They should have charged him the minute he stepped out of the White House.

He can’t talk to Harris unless his wife is with him though.

Hope OP’s a righty!

I'm walkin' on sunshine, woah-oh!!

I think agreeing to debate an agile who can’t have an honest discussion about even the color of the sky was a mistake from the start.

You’re giving a lying narcissist more of what they want. Attention.
