At least it’s short term. “Have a good rest of your day. I don’t give a shit about your tomorrow though”

Downvoting your comment because it’s hard to see my screen outside in the sun

That’s 3 reasons, none of which are any more concrete than the other.

1. Public speakers that talk too much
2. Politicians that exaggerate/lie
3. Wind

As with all lemmy, the volume is low, but we do have c/artshare here with some frequent callers. Here on World, I think

That’s so sad. I was gonna look it up as soon as I got through this thread. This is the last comment here for me :( I loved DA in the 00s

If that was the reason smartphones place periods, they’d leave double spaces and throw a period before them. They don’t, they replace a space with the period. It’s just a shortcut with a large target button.

Good for you, I’m glad you know so many things. Your knowledge is above average.

Cloud service purchaser doesn’t realize the system is ONLY a cloud service. Much like the commenters here, these bed owners are asking the same thing" why the fuck does a bed NEED to be connected to the internet?

I would have assumed it allows a direct connection between the controller and your phone. While I fucking hate the need for a wireless device to control my sleep Number (paid for a Bluetooth remote though), none of us can ignore the fact the gen pop loves having apps for the most basic of functions.

No, but “bricked up” is slightly more accurate for beds that got stuck fully erect and got bed-privism when they overheated

They’re all heated. The high flow ones just feel cold because they’re evaporating the water faster than it can put heat into your hands. If you hang out an extra 10 seconds with good technique, it’ll be warm.

Are any perfect? Probably not. I don’t have the patience for them and utilize my pants to finish the job. But, some basic understanding goes a long way.

1. Drying starts at the sink. Give some good shakes there. You can use your hands to squeegee the other there as well.

2. Rub your hands in the drier, vigorously and thoroughly. You need to spread the water thin to speed evaporation. Letting it stay pooled in droplets will only lead to the droplets re-wetting the dry parts as soon as they move. It also helps put your wetter parts on your drier parts, further maximizing your wet surface area.

2a. For the high speed ones, move your hands so it works it’s way from your wrists to your fingertips. This will help fling water off your hands.

3. I’m still gonna pat dry on my pants because I can’t waste the extra 10 seconds with all that white noise, but it’s a lot less than how it started. I could do a handshake by time I step out. I call it quits when the air doesn’t feel cold anymore.

Low speed drivers still won’t be worth my time. Again, I promise, I’m wearing pants, and I’ll use them.

This is highly regional. I don’t get the down votes. And, asking about radio options, makes it sound like OP wants local info, so it’s probably a regional request. I don’t even get the same radio options at opposing ends of my commute.

The NJ MAGAs were big mad that even their donny couldn’t tell them it was “suv-sized drones” all along. And man, the people that saw actual planes, real planes, plain planes, and called them holograms… I ate so much popcorn watching that fiasco unfold. So many grainy videos, so many spooked people livestreaming, so many hobby drones, so many cgi/Ai videos, and the orbs! So many orb videos from people who’ve never focused a camera at night, so many existing conspiriscists finding their place in the limelight. That was a riot.

Aside from that one time the Goodyear blimp in NJ took a 5 month break in 2020 and then showed up to the first Giants game and then people filmed the UFO.

NJ also had a mass panic last year with “drones”. Absolutely a UFO rash by real definitions, not the UFO=alien version. Those people went outside at night and saw distant planes landing for the first time. There’s what, 4 major airports that put descent over the state? I’m sure there were some drones (something about [training for?] lost radioactive material) but it was definitely less than what was reported. Cell phone video was an awful option for aircraft at night but everywhere.

I’d have to look for specific discussions, but I have some examples. The wiki page covers a lot. Spacewalk/moonwalk suits are white to reflect the sun’s heat (the orange suits are for takeoff/landing, a sin, terrestrial recovery). That shiny silver or gold foul appearance of classic space craft from the 60s/70s is for heat reflection. The JWST is on like 4 layers of wafers (they look like a sail) to isolate it from the sun’s heat. Quite visibly in depictions, the scrunched panels on the ISS are actually radiators.

There’s a misconception about space and heat. It didn’t originate, but I’m Sur eit was propogated by the 00s space movie that had an astronaut pop off their helmet and freeze. Mission to Mars? Red Planet? Space cowboys? Yes, you probably would freeze upon exposure to space, but not because it’s cold. The sudden drop in pressure would vaporized a tremendous amount of water from you. Jus like how sweat works, the evaporative cooling would drop your skin temperature greatly.

A side topic is that there’s narrow frequency range of radiation that is neither emitted by the sun nor reflected by the atmosphere. It’s in the near if rated range. There’s a NighthawkInLight video that develops a paint that resonates in this “window” to actually cool it below ambient air temperature. There’s always a control piece for science’s sake.

Atoms are surprisingly bad at removing heat. Being hit with slower atoms and transferring that energy ((like newton’s cradle with mismatched swings opposing each other) transfers energy much, much faster than what happens naturally in the vacuum of space. Most spacecraft have more of issue with overheating than freezing. The rate at which radiation is emitted is very low when you get to sub-human temperatures. There’s also tons of heat sources around us in space, so the last few degrees are so, so hard to shed.

Keeping a fridge stocked increases the thermal capacity of the coldness. Air falls out quickly and is subject to rapid temperature change when the door is open. Keeping a bunch of solid/sealed masses in there will bank the lack of heat. You’ll likely lose more air and the falling not-so-cool air will impart heat into your 24 pack of beer, but you’ll have a bunch of distirbuted cold objects to re-cool the air once the door is closed instead of relying on air circulation alone. Instead of raising the air temp by, say, 5 degrees once settled, it’ll only go up maybe 2 degrees - much better for food storage. But the fridge will still have to re-cool those beers, too.

Eskew

That’s my point? My state checks normal cars for OBDII codes and nothing else. One neighboring state does full inspection and fails for rust holes. The other neighbor has no inspection. Saying a street “racer” (which I keep putting in quotes because I’m positive most commenters in this thread aren’t talking about racing) that won’t pass tech shouldn’t be “racing” is acting like the bar is any higher for the average car being driven by someone texting and driving.

In sea and air, sure. Not as street racers. Not since radios became standard issue for police and even less with much better tracking. Drugs are much more likely to be in a van or gray camry doing the speed limit than a loud exhaust, underglowing, speeding charger.

Yes, but the choice to ride naked will only kill themselves [and traumatize others] if they become a meat crayon. The gear doesn’t change what phtsically happens to others in accidents

Have you seen the average car on the road? There’s plenty of people driving cars in such disrepair they’re just as dangerous as street “racers” that won’t pass tech. I might prefer a speeder with an old drip over a dipshit that ignored the grinding noise and wore brake pads down to the backing plates
