Na, I think I'll stick with WeatherCAN (What I'd recommend to any Canadians).

They did not have two spares, it's a three computer system that requires at-least two systems agree with each-other. Loosing one system means they where essentially running on a backup with no redundancy. There was no way to avoid an abort at that point.

We share a land border with Greenland, unfortunately they are a territory of the Kingdom of Denmark, and as of the 80's not part of the EU, I was vary sad when I found out.

Looks like a tower to me: https://www.google.com/maps/@33.8067882,-87.2686755,3a,15y,342.94h,91.69t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sWJzxeTcMOcMph6rhON8n0g!2e0!7i16384!8i8192?hl=en&entry=ttu

I picked up a 7800XT with Starfield (I put 120 hours into the game in the first 2 months and plan to revisit it). And nothing from nvidia comes close to the value of that in my books.

Not that I'm in the market (EVs don't work well for my use case and I don't drive often enough for there to be much benafit anyway). But still disappointing.

I can fully accept that these days a manual transmission is slower. But I'd be driving a car like this for fun, not to win races. I've always owned manuals, but ended up with an automatic Subaru, despite it having more hp per lb, better suspension, and in much better condition. I still find...

There are two main types of lead acid batteries, Flooded and Sealed (SLA). Most cars use Maintenance Free Flooded cell Lead Acid batteries. They have a catalist to re-combine the hydrogen and oxygen that gets split when charging. But they still have a vent (and will drip if left on there side)...

Well, you need un-homogenized milk for cheese and I think it's generally better for cooking. But un-pasteurized is just a health hazard (and illegal where I live).

Though thankfully only used in small and/or old piston aircraft, and the FAA is trying to replace it. Alcohol is used as an octane booster in road vehicles but the FAA deems it unsafe for aircraft. And a surprising number of older aircraft can't handle it. Anything with a with a turbo jet or...

Well this is the first article by "Chuong Nguyen" that isn't called a dealmaster. Looks to me like slightly better hidden paid for advertising.

Many adventure bikes already sort of do that. You need something to grip with your knees, and moving the fuel tank to under the seat is better for weight distribution. Mine (BMW F650GS) has the oil tank, battery and airbox there.And my buddies has a cubby, airbox, and battery there (no drysump...

One of many reasons I won't use Chrome, and avoid Chromium browsers. They've gained a monopoly like IE of old.

I totally don't have a dozen other more important projects on the go... But ordered some magnets for testing. I'm kind if heavy handed with my keyboard, and my last good one (mid range with cherry mx keys) wasn't reliable.

A better 3d printable key is the void switch: https://github.com/riskable/void_switch Sins it uses three magnets you get a definitive buckling spring like feel.

Would have bean nice if they covered Canada.

Yes, methanol can be absorbed through the skin, but the amount required (ld50 of 2+grams per kg) means it's unlikely to to enough for symptoms unless you;re bathing in it. Keep in mind most of the sanitizer evaporates, only a small percentage gets absorbed. Also you body is quite capable of...

I use methanol for cleaning, and regularly get it on my hands. I really think all the real cases of poisoning are from people drinking it. Also I have never seen any evidence that methanol poising is cumulative (all store bought booze has a small amount).

Harder for an individual to change, but 90% of the plastic waist I recycle is packaging.

Then your battery was lying to you when it was new (common practice) or it's lying now.
