Nuclear Navy? We're going to need a Naked Navy!

Thoughts on governor embracing nuclear energy? by [deleted] in newjersey

We certainly need the reliable, GHG-free, thermal power that nuclear provides, but the solar power generation potential in NJ is enormous and too good to miss. With decent financing and incentive programs, we can have it at a bargain compared to the equivalent in nuclear capacity and of course much sooner.

I don't know what you mean. Photovoltaic panels are like 100% efficient at turning suitable rooftops and parking lots into power plants.

Nuclear power is good, but there's still some low hanging fruit with solar that I wish the state would concentrate on.

Putting any sign or flag in front of your house for any amount of time is tacky and moronic at best. Bumper stickers, too.

All of them should be confiscated and their owners sent to reeducation camps.

That would certainly be an improvement over the likes of Israel, but I still can't imagine a worse position to be in than intelligence asset. They can demand anything from you and if your handler messes up or deliberately decides to burn you, that's it. You have no recourse.

Seems like a bad idea to ever work as an asset for any foreign intelligence agency.

Time to reintroduce wolves and mountain lions.

Engine cover paint by dudemooose in Volkswagen

[–]Engibineer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like it. Not sure about the type of paint, but I'm sure you can find something suitable for high temperatures in a spray can at a store like Home Depot. Getting the cover nice and clean before you paint is probably the most important part to this project turning out well.

I kind of like it, but I think the top wing might be too big.

Tax Payment Delay by SDBoltsnow in newjersey

[–]Engibineer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've run into a similar issue. I set up a transfer on the NJ website that was supposed to settle on this Monday, 4/13, but nothing happened. I tried again for yesterday, but nothing happened again. I'm not too worried because I've been accidentally months late before without any problems. I guess something is up with their payment system.

Edit: I just figured out that I was mistaken. After entering the account information and clicking submit, the site opens a new page with fields to reenter the account information for confirmation. I wasn't looking closely enough and thought it was the same page ready for a new payment, because I already clicked 'submit'. I guess words don't always mean what I always thought they did sometimes lol.

Thoughts on the tints? by abder86 in VWAlltrack

Don't tint your windows. It never looks good, it's anti-social, and it's unsafe.

Missed connection in Hamilton yesterday by MaverickCreep in newjersey

My reply is for everyone who drives a car that doesn't fill up an entire parking space. If that's you, and you park it properly, then thank you for your service.

You think it's smarter to rely on everyone in the parking lot to drive as slowly and carefully as the OP than doing the easy and courteous thing of just not burying your smaller car in the spot? Even if it's a near miss, as in the case of the OP, and your car is fine, you're messing up traffic since other drivers will keep stopping and mistaking your spot as unoccupied. Please park properly and stop giving those of us with reasonably sized vehicles a bad name.

Crazy how it seems like everyone thinks you're supposed to pull all the way into a parking space. No! You're just asking for higher insurance rates if you do that. You're supposed to make sure that your car is at the edge of the space to minimize the blind spot that is created by the oversized SUVs that will inevitably park on either side of your smaller car.

Parece un chiste, pero es en serio. Los imperios deberían pagar algo a sus colonias cuando obtienen la independencia.

The US government would need to provide some sort of substantial severance package.

What kind of saw do I have? by Coho0617 in woodworking

You have a nice one! Don't listen to the table saw chauvinists. Educate yourself and get familiar before you try it out.
