This is just announcing they've actually started work. An article with more background: https://wildrivers.lostcoastoutpost.com/2023/mar/24/ground-h... Here's a pretty good video on the habitat rest

Or, it really is Russian trolls, and they don't bother posting on July 4th because they know no one is online on that day and it's a waste of time.

You sure that the artist didn't just choose it because the visible spring makes it look more interesting?

A fire burns out the brush, making it easier to see what you are hunting, and easier to chase after it.

Safeway might be OK for shoppers, but it's terrible for the workers. My Grandma worked there from 1965 to 1985, and watched the decline in the 80s. It was a really good paying job with a good union and good benefits when she started. M

While admittedly a popular song, I'd argue it's not the epitome of Pink Floyd. I'd like to see them do this experiment with Brain Damage/Eclipse, climax of Echoes, or Celestial Voices.

Modern Dodge Ram with the Cummins is 7000 lbs. But a one ton truck is also going to have a much higher payload rating. Therefore, it's going to have tires with a higher load rating, not to mention more sidewall that will cushion road i

I know it's bad form to complain about this, but there's a special place in hell for sites that put up a barrier forcing you to sign in to finish reading it, when you're halfway through the article.

It might be possible to do sheet metal with 6013 (and I've tried it) but it's so miserable I wouldn't wish it on my worse enemy. The thick slag that forms makes it impossible to see the puddle. MIG is significantly faster, ea

As far as F#/OCaml goes, that's excellent. (I'm convinced one of the reasons why Rust is so popular is because it's OCaml with a legible syntax.)

I was only looking at vehicles from this millennia. 80 series Land Cruiser and 4wd Toyota trucks from the early 90's had a steering gear too, and I'm sure some others that I don't care about.

Well, even before electric power steering became popular, rack and pinion steering was/is used in almost all passenger vehicles. The only vehicles that I can think of that use a steering gear and pitman arm like this video are 1 ton Fo

Don't disagree with you about Rust, but the Spark website has no download link, just a link to "Request Pricing", which requires a "professional" email. As much as I'd like to, don't think I'm going t

This is an unusual video of him. Most of them are closeups of him working on old radios, or at least some electrical device. The only thing you see are his hands, soldering iron, and oscilloscope. Also his tone in this video is very differe

Well, yes, that's what you do. It's called eccentric turning. With that much of an offset, a normal chuck wouldn't work, you'd have to use a faceplate. http://www.steves-workshop.co.uk/tips/lathetech
