I like polyurethane most, since I dislike the repeat maintenance of other options, and like the resilience of polyurethane, but I find it's a pain to get it right - I usually have an algorithm of try, wait, sand it down to bare wood, t

I was at Home Depot to get a 6 foot butcher block countertop for this purpose, but then a 12 foot butcher block countertop caught my eye... and that's how I ended up with a 12 foot desk. Huge pain to transport. Takes up too much room.

Just to state one aspect of this, since I don't think you said it explicitly. Alternative plastics currently are generally not as efficient to produce as mainline plastics, IE they consume more energy. If that energy consumption is con

Very true and valid points! I'm just not that security conscious with my mobile device I guess. I go to all sorts of unknown URLs on this thing all the time. It's practically the only thing I do with this thing. To be clear, the e

For 3 years, when confronted with such a scenario, the people in my life who dislike QR codes have theatrically said something like "what are these stupid computer squares! I want a paper menu damn it!" Whereupon the staff and I

Lower Wacker Drive waves hello! But actually I think the contract accounts for this though, my memory is there's some kind of year-over-year value promise. (Plus inflation!) If true, moving the parking meters to a low demand location m

TY! That was interesting and I learned that their first servers can be viewed in various museums. While web searching that, I found this interesting tangent, a Lego cased storage array from 1996: http://infolab.stanford.edu/

If you like this, check out this channel's other videos, this creator has a sort of orthogonal way of thinking about mechanisms that I deeply appreciate. It's always a treat when they upload.

And to clarify: I don't try to start the ICE with my Tesla hooked up, mostly out of superstition. I don't see why it wouldn't work given there's also a regular old 12v sealed lead acid battery behind the frunk.

Another commenter already pointed that out about the word jump, you can reference that comment for my reply. On the second point, I can comfortably pull 50-100 amps for an inverter from those terminals. I believe the DC-DC is 2500W on my ca

It's worth noting simple solar 'trickle chargers' can be had for less than 100 bucks, today. They are awesome for such things like additional confidence while overlanding in a remote location, or for a trailer with a winch, o

In that case I was towing a U-haul trailer, which leads to another thing that probably should exist: trailers with supplemental EV batteries. Not sure if the extra capacity is made up for by the extra weight though. (For context my car uses

For me it means "no longer stranded" but I get the point. To explain the semantic ambiguity in my head, I find that ICE vehicles needing a jump often have a voltage so low (or that the battery pack or donor vehicle I'm using

Oh yeah, I take caution, but believe me, I'm no stranger to being locked out by an inoperable 12v system. Regarding the topic of the original post, it is infuriating to try to figure out which fuses do what in this car. It is informati

Similarly, I've always thought it's a no brainer for any ICE car to have a solar roof. At a minimum it can keep a 12v battery from dying over long parking durations or high parasitic drain, and at best it could like, keep a contai

Yes, I have an unfortunate habit of leaving the lights on in my ICE vehicle, and I've used it to run an inverter many times in a camping type of scenario. My memory is that there's two 12v terminals in my frunk, one that turns off

by blamazon 3y ago
Small nit: I can 'jump' (read: charge the battery of) other cars with my model X, as long as the other car is an ICE car. In the frunk there is a panel that pops off and underneath there are (unlabeled) 12V and ground terminals th
