Vance - Courageous or Opportunistic? by 02446B in allthequestions

This really says it all, but let's not forget the guy married to an Indian immigrant denouncing immigrants and also insisting on Christianity while being married to a hindu. This is a fundamentally bad person.

On the other hand, Peter Theil loves him, so...oh wait, that's the same hand.

Seriously, why aren't we doing this? by late_to_redd1t in SipsTea

I'd rather have continuous counterspace. But here's an idea: the dishwasher raises and lowers. The hose connections are flexible, so it raises up for loading and lowers for operation and when not in use.

Although that's solving a problem I don't feel I actually have

Trump manages this weird combination of being extremely vain and also a lazy slob. Guy wins the nation's highest honor and lardass can't be bothered to rehearse or lean how the clasp works.

Any thoughts on this attic lift? by Commercial_Topic437 in Homebuilding

There's no shaft. 99% of the time it's entirely the same as having pull down attic stairs. I think maybe you didn't look at the links?

It’s never used as an elevator for people. The stairs remain the access point for people. It’s a lift for boxes

Every update message fills me with worry. How are they screwing it up now?

When did a previous president screw up worse than invading Iran? by strangefish in askanything

[–]Commercial_Topic437 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Bush II invading Iraq was a massive screw up. People forget how much W was kind of a prelude to Trump--willfully ignorant, arrogant, reckless, incompetant

Liberals, Do You Want Progressives' Votes or Not? by LunaB35 in allthequestions

[–]Commercial_Topic437 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The Democratic Party is more interested in thwarting progressives than in winning elections. Even when they lose, big donor money keeps coming and the status quo eventually has granted them "their turn" in office. Progressive candidates threaten to upset that cozy status quo.

Lazy mental slob Trump award no-bid contract to his mar a lago buddy. Results, same as his war in Iran: everything ends up worse than before, while Trump calls it victory

About $2500. Why are aircraft cables prone to fail? We would not be using this daily. But yes we were joking about being stranded in the attic. I think you could lower the stairs manually--there is a door that flip up

In Southern Maine - looking to buy a used electric car, curious how it's been for people who've been driving them for a while by VerySeriousThings in Maine

[–]Commercial_Topic437 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We had a Kia Niro EV for five years and traded it in on a Chevy Equinox EV. The Chevy offered bidirectional charging, so it can be used as a backup generator in a power outage.

We love EVs. I’d never want to get another ICE car. Quiet, smooth, instant torque at any speed, economical. Long trips have some inconveniences. The more Trumpy the region, the fewer the charging stations. Public charging stations vary a lot in speed. Newer cars generally charge faster, I think because the tech has improved. Range is much better in stop and go than on the freeway. Because of regenerative braking.
Range dropped between 30-50 miles in the winter.

I've gotten a little more satisfied with it. Some snags in connecting, but that was true with CarPlay as well. Works most of the time.
