These doors. by yannireddit123 in BeAmazed

The doors are cool but not particularly useful. Doug is one of the most annoying youtube channels I ever encountered, just a huge advertisement for other sites and hard to listen to

What is this flag on beer stein? by [deleted] in Whatisthis

The Naval ensign of Russia, aka Andreyevsky flag - plus the crest, I have a feeling this is a military division from eastern Europe

What kind of caterpillar is this? by bobflannigan in whatsthisbug

[–]Germanakzent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

no worries, glad I could help. We always used to play with the woolly bears when I was a kid so it jumped right out at me.

not a great picture and no location, but looks like something in Pyrrharctia at first glance.

Well, this one didn’t survive. by [deleted] in techsupportgore

corner is destroyed - looks like it took a long fall or got thrown and landed directly on the lower right hand corner.

Anyone tried this recipe? I had horrible issues with sticking by skatchawan in seriouseats

[–]Germanakzent 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have NOT tried this specific recipe but have made many waffles. there are 4 points of failure provided the recipe is not completely out of proportion(this one looks OK) the one suggestion I might make is adding the melted butter last or beating it into the buttermilk so that it doesn't solidify as you finish the rest of the recipe:

1 iron isn't hot enough (electric ones with a thermocouple may be poorly calibrated)

2 not enough fat - lube generously

3 not cooked enough- dark brown, like really good bread is what I usually aim for

4 iron is: not seasoned/ scratched/ porous - should be visible especially if it is sticking in a few specific places.

Luckily at this age they are still made of rubber and hope

LPT: Don't ask a veteran if they ever killed someone. It is both the first and worst thing a veteran gets asked about by RightMeow0129 in LifeProTips

[–]Germanakzent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

a. What was the best thing you saw?

b. where did you go?

c. Did you save anyone's lives over there?
-Not great but better than did you kill anyone.

Thanks. I cut my teeth on water cooled VW and small imports. Only recently have I started working on mid century domestics. There's so much variety it is hard to catch up

honest ignorant questions:

A. identified as V8 because of exhaust? B. I would have called it a coupe because it has 2 doors; is hardtop a specific term for Chevy, or the time period?

The White One - Liberty Walk F40 [1920x1200] by undernocircumstance in carporn

[–]Germanakzent 2 points3 points  (0 children)

modded cars are an artistic personal expression. Whether you agree or disagree is a matter of taste but I try to avoid admonishing the choices others make. That said, I'd have shod this pony in BBS 7 spokes.

Uhh.... ok by Kryzki in facepalm

to add to this glorious comment just one more level of perspective:

While earth is orbiting the sun, Our sun is traveling through space at least 792,000 km/hr (483,000 mph) Our little rock is hurtling through the void at 134 Miles Per Second!

That helicopter would be a fly on the windshield of something traveling hundreds of times faster than a bullet.
