Yeah, for the first time in history, we've figured out that these aren't just "bad people," but there's a miswiring of the brain. Also I assume that everyone know that rates of diagnosis are more about our ability to diagnose it, than the incidence. I know this is obvious, but in our current anti-science culture, many are claiming the opposite.

No, it is generally not safe or recommended to use Castrol Pyroplex grease as a sexual lubricant. While it might provide some lubrication, it's designed for mechanical applications, not intimate use, and could potentially be harmful. Here's why: Not designed for human contact: Castrol Pyroplex grease is formulated for industrial machinery, not for use on the body. Potential for irritation and infection: It's possible that using it could lead to irritation, discomfort, or even infection. Condom incompatibility: Oil-based lubricants like Castrol Pyroplex grease can degrade latex condoms, increasing the risk of breakage and reducing their effectiveness as a barrier against STIs and pregnancy, according to Healthline and WebMD. Other safer alternatives: There are many safe and effective sexual lubricants available, both water-based and silicone-based, that are specifically designed for intimate use and are safe to use with latex condoms. If you're looking for a lubricant, it's best to choose a product designed for sexual use, such as: Water-based lubricants: These are generally safe, compatible with latex condoms, and can be used with a variety of sex toys. Silicone-based lubricants: They offer a long-lasting slippery feel and are also generally safe to use with latex condoms, according to the AIDS Foundation of Chicago.

You probably just need to grease some wheels.

The ultimate would be Kroil, gear oil, acetone, and #9.

I've done something right in my life, I haven't needed any of these in at least a decade, probably longer.

And avoid that. Seriously, not smartass, that's useless data for the rest of the world. We need things for unmaintained rusty shit, not high end materials maintained to a high standard. Reminds me of a recent conversation about cooking at what chefs use. Avoid that too. You don't have a prep and clean team and a pro sharpener on staff. Buy things that work in the real world.

Squirrel cops and county lake? Our police and Sheriffs have jurisdiction everywhere except federal land here.

And next door there will be $10 blowjobs and $5 bags of cocaine. Grok doesn't get pricing and a few simple things until you tell it do so specifically. I ran into that a lot yesterday. The conversational way it works though lets you tell it to keep going. Here's an update with my question to clarify it. https://grok.com/share/bGVnYWN5_879d9794-8c65-4fc3-8756-a0960dfb4d76

Fuck, that's an idea! Ask Rocketman's AI. https://grok.com/share/bGVnYWN5_cd00affc-6572-4bbd-8d62-37c6b6bab7c4 That's pretty good.

Don't give him any flack.

Agreed, more wondering out loud...feather the edge and cover with clear coat?

I *think* that taking the chrome off the mating surface is good? Can it be softly blended from chrome to no chrome? So the tires sits on just bare metal? Again, spitballing, but also based on the fact that chrome is quite porous.

Maybe I'm retarded, and I have never done this, but my mind goes to a Dremel and polishing the bad surface.

I thought of that conversation yesterday when a customer going through a very difficult move called me her emotional support animal. Apparently I've been just taking on whatever she needs help with and not really thinking about it. Again, why I'll never retire, satisfaction like that. I had that concern, and it all depends on the material and how the print layers were set up. Not to get complicated, but... Materials: PLA is pretty hard but brittle and inflexible. Like glass. ABS is glassy but flexy too. PETG and nylon are very flexible, workable, probably ideal for this. Printing with a lot of walls makes it harder, but inflexible. Printing with a lot of fill can do the same. Printing with certain patterns of fill changes the flex (in both direction, and amount). It can get complicated to print exceptionally engineered parts. But you can also just print something generically and do ok. Anyone here is welcome to search for a part and I can take a stab at printing it well. Look on these sites: https://www.yeggi.com https://www.printables.com

I'm familiar with their claims. It detects some, but it's limited. I wouldn't believe whatever the vendor is saying, find other sources. Try this: https://grok.com/share/bGVnYWN5_ab423721-a73b-4af5-a97a-a51bd970d375 Edit to add: This is not about saying it's bad or anything, just that we all need to fully realize the risks we are taking. Also a good friend's brother just got a colon cancer diagnosis and apparently it's somewhat serious.

I can't seem to get the Rivian's torque converter to unlock ever. I just woke up from a dream where I was driving my old motorhome, that Oscar has now, up a very steep hill leaving the parking lot of a park or marina. It couldn't pull it, and I couldn't get enough TC slippage. And apparently backing down had the risk of flipping it over as an endo if I braked too much. Thanks to the diabetic-induced need to pee often we'll never know how it ends, unfortunately. Anyway, I had a programmer in my Dodge that let me tune a bunch of the trans settings, something to consider. Like a more enhanced tow mode, or semi manual mode. I could change some on the fly. See what's out there. I think I paid in the range of $250.

I have no idea. I can't do it at all, so yes, infinitely so. I'm sure for someone else it's really easy. I have zero CAD skills and can only barely take existing models and mod them to fit what I need.
