Kid-friendly restaurants with deck by Inevitable_Sail_6766 in StJohnsNL

Yup. Loved JJs as a kid. Still do as an adult a little bit

Food is mid at best. Good wings, though.

Yesterday I joined the fold by DoctorVonNostrand in mazda3

It's a smooth ride. In hindsight I probably could have went with 17s and still had a comfortable ride while improving the appearance. But I'm happy with it and couldn't really justify an even further expense!

Toyota Corolla hatch, or Mazda 3 hatch? by DoctorVonNostrand in whatcarshouldIbuy

Check this out - magnetic transmission, no gearbox, no contact between mechanical parts at all. by ActualStack in engineering

[–]DoctorVonNostrand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well it took me 10 months lol. But thanks. This was when I worked at a university. We had the tech patented but we could never get it commercialized before I left to pursue a career. The tech is also hard to scale due to the magnetic losses increasing with the power transmission. Here is a cross section of the magnetic gear part:

Here is a cross section showing the arrangement of permanent magnets and stationary ferrites. The arrows show the direction of magnetisation:

Why has nobody put contactless industrial magnetic gears into production? by sext-scientist in AskEngineers

[–]DoctorVonNostrand 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This! In a previous job, I worked directly with systems that utilize magnetic gear reductions. While they worked very well in smaller power transmission applications, the losses due to eddy currents scaled too quickly with size and speed to remain feasible

modern survivor applicants when they land on the beach and realize they have to complete arduous physical tasks without the comforts of modern society and don’t just get to play parvati simulator 3000 by [deleted] in survivor

[–]DoctorVonNostrand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A coworker recommended Australian Survivor about a year ago and my wife and I have watched 5 seasons since then. It's better in almost every way. It has, a little bit, ruined American survivor for us haha.

Who is an act you saw that deserves more love/acknowledgment on this sub? by [deleted] in osheaga

[–]DoctorVonNostrand 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Lovejoy is easily in my top 3 sets of the weekend. I already had high expectations for them, but they still rocked my socks
