I second qidi. I have a Q1 pro and have had great success with higher temperature/exotic materials. I live in EU, and I also appreciate that they stock everything in Europe and I always get delivery of consumables and materials within

If you live in a region where F1TV is standalone (eg: US) and not part of an expensive sports package (eg: UK) it's good value. You can watch old races and related content, and each race weekend there is a good 4 hours worth watching l

If the machine is available and it’s a hobby project it’s ok, but you’re right this is not a cheap or easy way to do it. But as a mechanical engineer, the whole project is such a “software” approach to me, starting from turning the selected

That's an "internal gear hub". It also takes some practice to do it quickly. In the video a small hex key is used to rotate it, not a spoke. You shouldn't need to adjust tension after re-install more than a couple of cli

De-orbiting at a low orbit is often showing that without fuel and commanding, the satellite's orbit will degrade and it will burn-up within a few years (or even 25 years) due to the very minimal drag of the atmosphere that exists to so

By gear box do you mean the covered system between the bottom bracket/cranks and the rear wheel? Dutch commuter bikes are usually one speed and that system keeps grime out of the chain and keeps your pants clean. It is indeed a PITA to

That's long-term maintenance for commuters and casual riders. This product is for competitive and serious riders, and it reduces another type of maintenance (setting up and maintaining their bike for high performance).

Well speed is something a large portion of cyclists have always wanted. Adding a cycle computer or even a mechanical speedometer in earlier times was always popular. Now GPS units and smartphone mounts, or just logging your ride in an app u

I'm also thinking of one. They exist and allow greater extension for the overall length and/or greater nominal adjustment compared to internally routed ones because no space is required for the cable. This space is significant onc

It simplifies installation and getting a reliable, comfortable shifting setup, yes. Installation is simplified, especially in the case of internal and headset routing, which is something the target audience would deal with in case of cable-

That's really cool. I don't think you should support another keyboard, there may be better ones from a certain POV but I don't think there's a better one that's not significantly thicker and any keyboard options wil

The small width and therefore small shadow and unobstruction of views of this type of train system is one of its main benefits. It’s less than a monorail and much less than a conventional above-grade system.

Except for the no-power versions, electricity is required for bidet functions on Toto bidets. They work like normal industrial hydraulics. They have a small low-power electric pilot valve, which lets hydraulic pressure into the right place

Luxebidet are, but the parent comment to yours is referring to Toto washlets, I think.

If you want to ply on original hardware, which people that use original cds typically do, the drive might be valuable or hard to replace depending on the system.

It's not hard to look this up. It's not just fewer hours per day, latitude matters a lot. If you look at yearly totals[1] Alberta looks better than BC but not better than any other neighbors to the South or East. All its neighbors

I am a fan of baseball, and in 2021, there was a real MLB game played at the original filming location. It started with Kevin Costner leading the players out of the cornfield.

I used to do contracted engineering and maintenance work in railyards, and in each facility would obtain (always with permission from my recollection) a well-worn supervisor vest and hard hat. They are usually color-coded.

An American thermostat would be using around 920MHz which is the equivalent unlicensed band in the US. Funnily enough, the author warns Americans as an example but he is running more foul of the local rules an American would be (assuming an

Well both are not always available. In many countries, there is no hot water tank/line. There are only inline heaters or very small tanks locally where needed (each bathroom and kitchen sink). Then, you buy appliances such as dishwashe

I forgot about the exposed element. These days most plastic spatulas withstand high temperature. Back in the day I think every North American family had at least one yellow spatula destroyed by the element.

Too bad this wasn't real, especially since at the end of the day, all these things are just using 18560 cells. I tried to standardize on one system (Hikoki 18/36V). This was great as they use the same battery across consumer and p

For the 60V flex volt battery, which is actually 3x 20v batteries which the tool can configure in series, the advertised capacity in Ah is almost certainly measured at 20V. And 20V is also a marketing term, with nominal voltage being around

Was the old design actively balanced? I think the current of each pin was only monitored.

There are versions of the cables (and adapters) that work on older PSUs, although new PSUs are starting to come with the same connector that new GPUs have. Anyway there are pros and cons to using 12V, or lower or higher, and anything except

Other cars have this too. I was going to make the same comment, it’s such a perfect interface.

by johnwalkr 2y ago
A higher input voltage may eventually be used but a standard PC power supply only has 12V and lower (5V and 3.3V) available, so they'd need to use a new type of power supply or an external power supply, both of which are tough sells. O

I almost forgot the switch doesn't play Wii U games, given that almost all Wii U games worth playing were also released for the Switch.

I've worked in a robotics-adjacent field for 15 years and robotics is truly hard. The number of people and companies I've seen come and go that claim their software expertise will make a useful, profitable robot is.. a lot.

I think it still needs the wheel, and all the related parts in the middle like an upright/steering knuckle, which probably cancels out any mass of the motor that is acting as a structural part of a wheel. Other things like brakes would
