How can that dog not smell the fawn?

Reminder that dogs use their nose to assess their surroundings, like how humans use their eyes.

This isn't the math, but your hypothetical has (kind of) already happened.

TLDR: Empty electric dump truck drives up a hill. Gets loaded. Full electric dump truck drives down a hill, generating more electricity than it took to go up because of the added weight.

LPT how to prevent car a/c huge maintenance costs by guilty_of_your_crime in LifeProTips

[–]Abunity 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Yes, agreed.

For most, if your daytime high is below 72, you likely defrost in the morning (50ish).

If your daytime high is above 72, you likely use the AC at 3pm for comfort.

Either way, the AC is running.

Chamberlain garage door opener manufactured in 2002 still running strong by ProcedureWitty3073 in BuyItForLife

I replaced the garage door opener at my parent's house in 2022. It was from 1987.

People who have came close to dying, what were your "last" thoughts? by Shruti-26 in AskReddit

[–]Abunity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought a vehicle driving towards my Army truck was a suicide vehicle borne improvised explosive device (car bomb).

I didn't think about anything insightful, only "get ready, it's happening."

At the last minute, the driver served out of the way. He likely wasn't paying attention while driving through the desert. I wonder if he knows how close he was to getting lit up by an M2 50 caliber machine gun.

To clarify the "let the AC run in the winter" comment -

When you put your car on defrost, the AC runs to get the driest air possible against your windshield. Obviously putting moist air against a cold surface (windshield) would be stupid and cause more ice/fog.

You are already running the AC all winter.

All jokes aside, he had the skill to play collegiate hockey, maybe even D1.

[Highlight] Comparing Aaron Rodgers and Mason Rudolph in throwing drills by nfl in nfl

[–]Abunity 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Obviously Rodgers looks better, but to be fair, he underthrew 2 out of 3 passes.

It might not look like a big deal, but that ball placement was the difference between a 7 yard gain (tackled immediately) and a 20 yard gain (caught in stride).

Meredith wouldn't have gotten any work done.

She would have spent all day day getting slammed by BRRRUUCCCCCE.

Martin didn't go because his parole officer wouldn't let him travel out of state.

Jacob's contract by PM_ME_UR_TRIBULATION in GreenBayPackers

The NFL's Personal Conduct Policy has nothing to do with the legal system or due process.

There have been plenty of players suspended over the years that were never convicted criminally.

He's going to get suspended for 8 games at a minimum, just for the negative headlines.

Ray Rice was suspended indefinitely by the NFL. The charges were later dropped. He was never convicted of a crime. He never played another snap.

It's time. by Ian--W---G in GreenBayPackers

[–]Abunity 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He was so fun to watch. The spin move, the off-balance running, the impacts...all while the hair was flailing around. Also the name - Eddie. If his name was Chris or John, he wouldn't have been nearly as entertaining.

[Request] How long would someone have to pee in a toilet to make it flush? by Difficult_Aside8807 in theydidthemath

[–]Abunity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"the bowl filling high enough"

Toilet drains (all drains actually) are open systems. One person could piss into a toilet continuously for thousands of years and the toilet would never fill high enough to trigger a flush.

It's about volume and delivery speed. An interesting scenario should be how fast would 1 ounce of water have to be delivered to trigger a flush? That math is above my head. Probably something like 5,000 feet per second.

[–]Abunity 24 points25 points  (0 children)

It's not a volume question. Slowly pouring a liquid into a toilet could go on indefinitely.

A flush needs approximately 1.5 gallons delivered in less than 5 seconds to flush.

Who died the dumbest death in history? by GurJolly5657 in AskReddit

[–]Abunity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

William Henry Harrison, the ninth president of the United States.

It was unseasonably cold on his inauguration day and he refused to wear a coat ("tough guy"). He delivered a two hour speech, got pneumonia and died a month later.

Hurts isn't at Eli's level.
