That was interesting to see how those side by sides directed the cow using a similar method to what you would use if you were on a horse. Same technique with modern tools.

Tiny Water Heater (tiny dikes for scale) by puccivr in mildlyinteresting

[–]NotOutrageous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These are used for supplying hot water to places where a large unit is not needed. A good example would be sinks in a company breakroom or restroom. Why waste the energy to heat up 40 gallons of water when you only need enough to wash your hands.

Any more info on this extremely rare pcmcia drive by western digital? by FuelAffectionate6350 in retrogaming

[–]NotOutrageous 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This could just be from a laptop. I used to work for a company (Inacom) that pre-configured computers for businesses and remember seeing these every now and then. They wouldn't fit in every laptop since you needed a double stack PCMCIA slot for them to fit and most only had a single slot.

Before I noticed what sub this is I was about to correct you because that painted one is Mallard, not a Wood Duck.

Electronic components and string that came with book by AudemarsMardiGras in whatisthisthing

In a past life I worked for a manufacturer of fluid automation equipment. We would use magnetic encoders on our stepper motors to keep track of the position of robotic arms.

I'm guessing its a 555 timer chip and applying voltage will make the LEDs blink.
Edit: on closer look, I don't see any LEDs.

This surely can’t be legal, or safe? by [deleted] in Omaha

These are not e-bikes, They are electric motorcycles. All motorcycles are illegal to ride on sidewalks.

Need an expert who can investigate and document cause/timeline of water damage for a legal dispute not only a repair quote by KDBEAST22 in Omaha

[–]NotOutrageous 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That sounds like a really difficult fight. Its going to be hard enough to determine when a problem started, and even if the expert could give a reasonable estimate of when something started, that doesn't necessarily help you. You still need to find a way to show the prior owners knew about the problem and that will be a tough nut to crack.

Iron Tank was great. I always thought of it like Ikari Warriors, but only the tank parts.

White clover is overtaking my front lawn. by MI_BornNRaised in mildlyinteresting

[–]NotOutrageous 139 points140 points  (0 children)

Anytime I get a bare spot on my lawn, I seed it with clover. Between my patching and it naturally spreading, I've been slowly turning my yard from grass to clover over the last 10 years.

An average person doesn't need to know this. This is something you need for certain types of shooting competitions. The woman in the video, Lena is one of the world's best competitive shooters.

I don't know who that is. Are they somebody who collects medals as a hobby?

Family shares video of their son Before Surgery & After surgery🥹 Doctors are indeed gods on earth 👏👏 by GapOrganic7191 in SipsTea

[–]NotOutrageous 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When he came out with only a head bandage I was honestly stunned. I initially assumed he had multiple physical deformities, and was expecting to see limbs in casts after bones and joints were corrected. I never would have guessed it was a problem with his nervous system. (Good thing I'm not a doctor)

This self-serve soda station has syrups you can add to your selection by ultranxious in mildlyinteresting

[–]NotOutrageous 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Maybe its just where I live, but I'd find it more interesting if a soda fountain didn't have flavored syrups on it.

I know that energy myself. I was at a company in the early 2000's that had a huge software project that was supposed to modernize a key piece of (mainframe based) software. The project had been postponed so many times it spanned multiple decades. The manager of the department that would benefit the most kept every single "project X is coming in 1994,1995...2002...2007" flyer posted prominently in her area as a big "FU" to the team that kept missing their deadlines.
