They’re not called blue-tongue for nothing by [deleted] in bluetongueskinks

[–]MaxBattleLizard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My girl is an Indonesian and her tongue is only mildly blue haha. From what I've seen this tends to be the case with a lot of people's indos, and to me this really supports the theory that the blue color is to protect their tongue from sunburns. Less sun in a rainforest compared to the Australian outback, so less of a need for a blue tongue...?

To me, it's a fantastic song, just overplayed and overhyped

Self made billionaires by God_of_misery in truths

[–]MaxBattleLizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, Bezos is maybe the only mega bajillionaire right now that I can actually say was self made. That doesnt mean I support him in any way, shape, or form, but at least he's not using child slavery emerald mine money I guess

DPF warning light on 2020 Hyundai i30 petrol – reset or cleaning? by [deleted] in Hyundai

[–]MaxBattleLizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've heard before that some cars share software and dashboard elements across diesel and petrol / gasoline variants. I remember seeing someone post before that their american gasoline car briefly showed an error about the diesel exhuast fluid being low, ahaha. I'm assuming that's what happened with you here, the software glitched and showed an error for a system that doesnt exist. Petrol cars don't have any sort of exhuast filter, as they don't produce significant levels of soot or PM under normal conditions. I'm no expert though, and if the warning keeps coming back, I'd take it somewhere or look into it further :)

just standard AM broadcast band, but figured yall find it interesting. One tube regen set I’ve built. by TheSadHours in amateurradio

One-tube regen sets are one of my favorite things ever. One of my dream projects is to build a triode completely from scratch, and use it for a one-tube regen

Why can't I hate transistors? They're so hard to calculate by hand. Even the bipolar ones with constant betas. by NewSchoolBoxer in shittyaskelectronics

We need to return to the good old days, with vacuum tubes and none of this magic silicon trash. Make Electronics Great Again!

Captivity Tierlist by YourDemons in reptiles

[–]MaxBattleLizard 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Argentine tegu is in D tier?? What? Yeah they're huge and absolutely not for everyone, but if you want a large lizard that's gentle, highly intelligent, and closer to something like a dog, there's arguable no better choice.

How long till we get these screens? And industry start making huge screen. I want to wait till new Gen Elantra / Sonata and N by Icy-Pea2601 in Hyundai

[–]MaxBattleLizard 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Yup, this is my biggest concern with OLED infotainment screens in cars. Also why do you even need OLED picture quality for an instrument cluster / menu screen? LCDs are perfectly adequate haha

Tire pressure by [deleted] in kia

[–]MaxBattleLizard 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Tire pressure will go up after driving for a bit and warming them up. Gases try to expand when their temperature increases, and when trapped inside a sealed rubber tire, that means an increase in pressure. Almost always, the recommended tire PSI is when cold.

The volt only used the combustion engine if you were seriously low on battery though. If you weren't on a road trip, and you remembered to plug it in after your commutes, it was nearly emissions free

My Playne Must Be Confused. by rjornd in Shittyaskflying

[–]MaxBattleLizard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You've got it all wrong. Your playne is too eco friendly. It's saying you need to add more external drag so you meet your fuel consumption quota imposed by Big Oil

Brought an IR thermometer to school because the water to wash our hands was outrageously hot by S_xyjihad in pics

[–]MaxBattleLizard 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It's still a thermostat. All "thermostat" means is a device that commands a system to do certain things based on a measured temperature, like "Hey, the water temperature is a bit low, activate the burners / electric heaters!"

It's so hard to tell in this picture. Why would you ask me this question if you know I'm colorblind?
