Forum unread count/notice may be wrong after today's upgrade
SwampNut replied to SwampNut's topic in Board Tech Issues & Help
I also found a potential database issue, and ran a repair. I need feedback on issues from everyone. -
I had a terrible night of sleep, woke up with two neurons working, and read this while waiting for coffee. I read it as "New pool Tuesday." In my defense, you HAVE been doing things to the yard. "Shit, he dug and poured a pool while making the shop foundation? Will it be ready for NeXXt? At least he got a heater. Wait, that heater won't do shit." Anyway, cool idea.

I was retarded. Fixed. Mark it READ. -
Added point. I've had screw clamps get a kink or nick and "lock" in a certain place when re-used.

I thought it was one of those things I just don't understand about non-desert places, but I wonder the same. A vendor who I talk to a lot picked up an electric ZTM last week, and is completely in love. He got a smokin' deal as people seem to be worried about large purchases right now, he says they weren't selling a lot. He's got a couple acres to do and says the battery is enough, and no more maintenance or noise.

Yeah, it's safe, and is ready to use, no water.

Chasing down a coolant leak only requires some very basic tools to pop the fairings off, and some patience. Coolant leaks usually leave a trace even after they dry, unless you've washed the bike well. I agree about making sure it's not some hose leak, ESPECIALLY after a service since they could have left a loose clamp. As far as coolant choice, same as above, just be careful mixing types. Some cannot mix. Coolants need to be 50/50 water and coolant. Some come premixed, most don't. Check your bottle for instructions. There is an add-on product called Water Wetter that seems to help drop a couple degrees more. I have no real concern over the dark area, I've noticed that happen on some vehicles and never paid attention. I assume it's a place where road grime is concentrated.

Like a lock would help you there. Also. Racist.

Full of liberal tears.

DJI Air2s Fly More kit with extra accessories
SwampNut replied to SwampNut's topic in The Sales Floor -- For Sale/Wanted
Now I wonder what the perceived difference between a quad and a drone is... -
I haven't looked at pricing. Checking on interest here before putting it on eBay for top bid. As always with my stuff, it's immaculate, you'd never know it has left the box. Low flight hours, no crashes, no dirt landings, no issues. Covered by DJI Care and about seven months old. All the usual accessories like ND/PL filters, prop protectors, portable charger, etc. I bought a Mini 3 Pro and will probably stop using this one. And yes, I did just get this to replace a Mini 2. Shut up.

That's a lot. I have seen 4-5, but never that much. I wonder if there's more going on. I would expect to have a much wilder swing than you do. I'm talking nights in the 50s and then a daytime over 90 and the vehicle in the sun to where you can't touch the wheel without a burn. I've often joked about "rotating to the winter air" but it's true. When we get one of those quick swings from a hot average to a cool average, suddenly I get tire pressure warnings. The rolling average can drop 3-5 and the morning low pressure drops a solid 5.

Walking doesn't help with weight loss really. I mean, moving around is good to keep things moving, and not stagnant, but there's no real caloric benefit. In fact most exercise is irrelevant to weight loss. How many Oreos do you think you could eat to make up for a run up the Empire State Building? A little aerobic work here and there correlates with good health improvements, but not specifically weight loss. There may be psychological benefits; people who do *something* like that regularly correlate with happier people. Walking is pretty boring. If I do, it's for some reason like scouting or some excuse to give a purpose. I always walk in Vibram FiveFinger KSOs, which are meant for trekking. Otherwise, I'm just not going to be walking around the hood. I like mountain biking. That's interesting, more aerobic, and puts the whole body to work not just legs. A good solid ride can burn up a few hundred calories, but even a non-aggressive ride gives you a good all-body workout. Moriah has been doing road biking lately and can put down a shitload of power apparently, so two hours of that and she's killed 300+ calories. I don't get the road bike thing either. Yawn.

What the fuck is this key thing??? Oh, google says it's something from the 1900s. The Smart has a hidden key slot for emergencies since they don't expect the barbaric use of metal objects in a door.

There absolutely is lag in mouse response, acceleration curve, etc etc. Mostly around 8-16ms lag. Our entire world has lag and your brain re-assembles it. You can't watch a stage show without a huge amount of audio lag and your brain makes you think it's live. Throttle too, and that's a very good thing.

Mouse acceleration and motion are indeed artificially controlled. Imagine if your cursor moved exactly how you move the mouse. Unusable.

I can't find any at all. This video debunks the concept, for the most part. There's just no evidence that people need to consume any animal products. We can get 100% of what we need from plants with one exception; B12. And that's sort of available from a plant, but not in any normal diet so you just need a supplement. They've been pretty well debunked. Just like the cagey lies and manipulations he points out regarding meat. They proved something by picking and choosing the details. "Olive oil is good for you." Um, compared to what? A pork rind? Sure. Compared to whole food and substituting nuts and similar things for oil? All oils have some bad effects on the body, that just seems to be one of the least bad. Oils have zero nutritional value, just calories. Separating the oil from its fiber and other nutritional components correlates with a lot of issues.

Wait, plain old TC is not at all what we're talking about. There are a bunch of specific off-road assistance modes for a variety of situations. The newer Rubis have three distinct ones I can think of, but there are so many settings it's hard to just limit them to that. Throttle plate connection? Jesus, thank the gods we no longer depend on friction and mass and shit to control a vehicle. In fact some of the off-road modes reduce speed of response, as they should. Pedal Commander is a ludicrous addition that is mental only and makes everything worse. For "only" $300. There are morans putting this on Smart cars too.

https://nutritionfacts.org/video/how-big-meat-manipulated-the-science/?mc_cid=317a4a4633&mc_eid=6bf37ade4d Until reading this, I didn't know just how much eggs correlate with so many health problems. One of the largest studies saying that meat and egg consumption has a smaller (but not zero) negative effect on health are funded by........... Meat-centric organizations. Shocker. They focused on the idea of "reasonable" changes in diet, ignoring the fact that you can just change anything you set your mind to. Retarded.

My second-best fantasy is a selectable locker with LS.
