doubleg72··on Lego price per part over the years

Nope.. Machine to machine plans most likely
doubleg72··on American drivers even more distracted by phones. Pedestrian deaths are soaring
Any vehicle I have ever owned has them in the A-pillar. Not sure how they would work in the B-pillar with the seatbelt and all, but I am no auto expert.
doubleg72··on Old Online Chevy Manuals
That's been my experience as well, not much I can't find online with a little digging.
doubleg72··on The Golden Age of Cordless Power Tools
Ryobi most definitely is a big box brand targeted to consumers. These are cheap tools and I challenge you to find a contactor or tradesman that uses them commercially.

doubleg72··on Why flying insects gather at artificial light
I got bit by a bat recently and the four rounds of shots weren’t painful. Uncomfortable, maybe so.
doubleg72··on Dangerous chemicals found in recycled plastics, making them unsafe for use
You're on hn and don't find it plausible there could exist a machine that sorts recyclables??
doubleg72··on The rise of batteries in six charts
Why would their worth be determined on how many people hang out there? I prefer to see green spaces and am okay appreciating them from a distance, such a in a nearby town with a tree lined main street through town. I don't think it would invoke the same aestetic pleasure with people and litter occupying these spaces.
doubleg72··on Is the Tesla Cybertruck a Dud? An Experienced EV Reviewer Thinks So
The Ford Maverick is that truck..

Edit.. not an EV tho

doubleg72··on Is the Tesla Cybertruck a Dud? An Experienced EV Reviewer Thinks So
I got a hybrid Ff150 with built in 7500watt generator for exactly that purpose. It’s looks nice, runs awesome, and is the ideal truck. I wish Ford would put a bigger battery in it and prioritize it over the Lightning.

Okay.. Gas car owners confronted a hard foe in Calgary this week too: frozen gas pumps.

doubleg72··on Ask HN: What to do with text from old, unarchived, online forums?
Damn really?? I have stacks and stacks of discussions from forums and various tutorials I printed off while at school to read later on at home. Everything from bind9 configuration to gun building.. On occasion I still pull some out to review.

I came here to say exactly this.. what a nice, refreshing read.

But only lasts half that..
doubleg72··on Ask HN: Should I medicate my ADHD?
Not OP but Vyvanse is a miracle drug to me. It's a stimulant, same as Adderall, but a prodrug. Your body processes it into dexamphetamine so it is much smoother with little side effects.
doubleg72··on California Pizza Hut Lays Off Delivery Drivers Amid New Wage Law
That is in the UK.. in the US, no one considers driving for Uber or Door Dash a job. It is side income, or better known as contract work. I don’t see how going onto an app and choosing gigs for people can be confused as doing work for a company.
doubleg72··on California Pizza Hut Lays Off Delivery Drivers Amid New Wage Law
Falsely?? How about a source for that bs?
doubleg72··on The Art of Electronics (2015)
Damn, thanks for pointing that out. That's way more than an acceptable number of errors for a book like this, imo.
