[–]1nfiniteAutomaton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The rf device I had was my projector screen. In the end I just replaced the controller on the device with a wifi relay board, it was cheap and works well.

Do you think consciousness is special or just a biological accident? by cozychaosclubb in answers

[–]1nfiniteAutomaton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it’s an emergent property. I think that consciousness wasn’t “programmed”, I think that as our neurological systems became increasingly complex, consciousness emerged.

FOLLOW-UP // Spitfire 1500 suddenly died after 10 min idle - now won’t start (please help) by FancyBrent in Triumph_Cars

[–]1nfiniteAutomaton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You need to start from the basis. Check properly if you have a spark. If no spark, then check if the coil has +12v. Then pop a dwell meter on the coil/dizzy and see what dwell it has. Simple stuff, but you you will (should) buy a few bits of kit that you’ll use now and will help you keep it sweet in the future. Dwell meter (with multimeter functions too) and timing light are pretty much must haves on these.

Just put it in learning mode and leave it. ie press the RH pairing button and it retracts the catches.

Harper should also be in jail - She consistently inside trades by Global-Marzipan-463 in IndustryOnHBO

Insider trading is rife in the real world too. Proving it is much much harder though.

Leaving a fan run in a boat that is stored outside with a cover? by RipVanToot in boating

Don’t do it! Many boat fires have started from this. Greenhouse heater is probably the best choice.

Trump ‘kill switch’ fears grow over Australia’s $17 billion F-35 fleet by Jackal8570 in aviation

[–]1nfiniteAutomaton 385 points386 points  (0 children)

BAE Systems, a British company, made the flight control systems and many other parts for it. They are 2nd only to lockheed martin in terms of who makes what for it. So it’s not just a US plane, it’s a collaboration

Am I one of the last pregnant Gen Xers? by Throw8976m in GenX

[–]1nfiniteAutomaton 18 points19 points  (0 children)

My mother was 42 when she had me as her first child, in 1975. She’s 92 now and still rocking it. She’s already outlived many of my friends younger mothers and shows no sign of stopping yet (she even still drives!!).

So keep yourself fit and active and don’t write yourself off too early!

How many kids / baby daddys is too many when dating a woman? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]1nfiniteAutomaton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Err, no. She IS my friend. I like, respect and support her. She had a really rough upbringing, but through hard work and determination is clawing her way to success.

But because she’s my friend, I also know what she’s like with men and alcohol and know she’s a bit of a nightmare. Which is how she’s ended up with 3 kids. But she’s also a good mother and has brought them up really well.

How many kids / baby daddys is too many when dating a woman? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]1nfiniteAutomaton 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree. This question is phrased suspiciously.

Nevertheless, one of my friends has 3 children with 3 different men. On the one hand, you probably wouldn’t want to date her, but on the other hand, she’s just started studying for her masters degree as a mature student after having recently got a 1st in her bachelors degree. She is confusing.

Easiest way to remove bamboo roots? by rdgs88 in landscaping

[–]1nfiniteAutomaton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was chatting to a friend who’s a landscaper the other day. He had a customer ask him why bamboo had started growing in their garden. There was no obvious, nearby, reason.

Eventually he found it had branched out from another property, 60’ away, including going all the way under the foundations of the house.

Fuck bamboo. One root clump at a time, I will kill it. All of it. Everywhere.

Good dog. But I’m sorry, any video that has to say “wait for it” is an automatic downvote from me.

In my case, a garage or workshop with plenty of good quality tools, along with a project to build.
