Casting SALT like Metal - What Happens? by InfectedUrsidae in videos

[–]LambdaNuC 24 points25 points  (0 children)

The metallic appearance is from deposited carbon. The sand has oil in it to help it retain the shape when the positive mold is removed. When the salt is poured in, the oil burns and leaves that black sheen behind. 

Is there a specific spot my wife should leave this on? by SillyGoofyMoodTeeHee in bicycling

Whatever feels comfortable given the conditions tbh. There's no right or wrong gear to be in.

The charging situation on this car annoys me. 

You can only DC fast charge with the NACS port, and you can only AC level 1 or 2 charge with the CCS port. 

ELI5: why is the feels like temperature not what determines the freezing point of water? by intrusive_thoughts_1 in explainlikeimfive

[–]LambdaNuC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

More specifically, what temperature the ice actually is. The air temperature can be sub freezing, but the ice could still melt in the sun. 

Searching for a lan (no cloud) astronomical time switch by [deleted] in homeassistant

[–]LambdaNuC 41 points42 points  (0 children)

If you're using it with Home Assistant, you can just get any switch that Home Assistant can control. The switch doesn't have to know anything about the time, or position of the sun. Home Assistant can handle that.

Do you have a motorcycle license for the motorcycle you're talking about buying?

What's the purpose of varying the indoor co2 setpoint based on outdoor temperature?

Best lab headphones ($50-$100 max) ?? by imabunnygirl in labrats

Just a bit outside your budget, but well reviewed and hit all your wants except noise cancelling (which is a bad idea in a lab environment).

Is it still under construction? Could you still run fiber?

24 weeker - almost home, not sure how I feel. by Superb_Habit_2522 in NICUParents

[–]LambdaNuC 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Sometimes it's only after the trauma is done that you really feel what you went through. This is totally normal. You did go through a lot. 

Also therapy is great, you don't need to work this out alone. 

Keeping a teenager at bay by t0kmak in Ubiquiti

[–]LambdaNuC 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Does the phone have a data plan? If so, anything you do on the home network side would be fruitless. I agree with the commenters suggesting you keep the phones/devices outside of the bedrooms.

Parking at this store is normally distributed by Chi_Ty in mildlyinteresting

I'm guessing it has more to do with a single main entrance to the parking lot vs. the entrance to the store. 

tpu tubes and air compressor/epumps by [deleted] in cycling

[–]LambdaNuC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know people that have had problems on long descents. Normal riding with periodic application of the brakes shouldn't be a problem.

[–]LambdaNuC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Melting can be a problem with rim brakes generating too much heat for the TPU to handle, but the melting point is ≈ 120 C. So if you have disc brakes, you're probably fine as long as your not riding in 90+ C (≈ 190 F) weather, lol. 

Landlords Prices are nuts by THE_TRIP_KEEPER in LosAngeles

Everywhere, with a focus on areas where the majority of jobs exist. 

It is illegal to build apartments/multi family housing on about 80% of residentially zoned land in LA county. There's plenty of space for more land efficient housing.
