Are Ferraris that fast? I thought the whole point of them was being loud and obnoxious (in every sense of the word).

The guy I knew was extremely charismatic. He could talk to anyone for 5 minutes and you'd be convinced he was your best friend and would do anything for you. He also wouldn't hesitate to use you to his advantage, leaving you in th

Upon further thought, the Romans were exposed to lead, their water pipes were made from lead (installed by plumbers), not to mention pewter and bronze objects. And they were certainly breathing lots of smoke from their cooking fires. Althou

I edited that out because I thought it was superfluous, but you're right. Also the plumber smoked. (To those curious, one was a logger, the other was a plumber.)

My point is that a loud muffler isn't necessary on the track, by showing a production car can be quiet yet still fun to drive. But you're right, there is no nuance in my argument. I'm so fucking sick and tired of being woken

Yet somehow GM was able to engineer a Corvette to have a factory muffler that's pretty fucking quiet (I would know, I had a family member with one) yet flows enough exhaust to make 500 HP.

The timbre is also important. Tire and engine noise are closer to white noise, which you can tune out. An aftermarket muffler like what my jackass neighbor has is a single pitch that pierces through anything.

No, but soaking is going to break down chemicals like phytic acid that lock up nutrients.

Not sure what your point is. It's well established that soaking nuts and seeds so they begin to sprout is healthier. I realize that it's written with a marketing slant, but it's not wrong. https://en.wikipedia.org&

I also wish private businesses would stop using the orange roadside signs to tell me how much money I can save by buying a trailer from them. They're distracting. It's normally important to read them because they normally contain

If you already have the fiber in place, that's dirt cheap compared to hiring a sparky to run power for a sensor.

Bit of trivia: The first Macs (or maybe it was the Lisa) had DO IT instead of OK. The people in the focus groups testing it got annoyed that they were being called dolts.

The can bus can tolerate +-12VDC. Actually, something like the TJA1051T can take +-58V. The problem is that when there is a short on the can bus, you can't communicate over it. It isn't magic. I don't know what the exact prob

If the framing is complicated, or it's an old building, it can be very difficult or impossible to fish it (And I consider myself to be extremely good with glow rods). Much better to install smurf before the drywall goes up.

Tacoma is a softer and less rugged vehicle than the Hilux, since people use them more like a car. People in third world countries use the Hilux as a work truck. People here in the US use a one ton truck for a work vehicle.
