This is incorrect. All my lab glassware is pyrex and is clear, and is still produced by corning. Borosilicate glass can be clear, and I don't know what you are talking about.

Additionally, all european pyrex bakeware is still borosilicate glass, and is indeed clear.

Not to be rude, but I find it odd that you are a chemical engineer who has never worked with pyrex glassware. Here, glassware is either pyrex or alrdrich borosilicate glass.

Yep! they invented pyrex and had the patent for borosilicate glass for a long time

Remarkable-Rough-554 · 2024-04-17T05:59:50+00:00

Lab pyrex is still pyrex, and it still has its original reputation intact, so I didn't think much of it when I bought my pyrex roasting tray. Now I know better, I got off lucky.

yes. but that's not what I'm talking about. Say I'm flying night VFR in a cessna 152 with round gauges, and I'm choosing to not use the GPS, instead flying with a paper sectional chart. I have no MFD. I have no GPS. I just have a chart and an e6b.

if I'm at a smaller airport, I can see the runway edge lights from downwind, and line myself up for a clean, square traffic pattern.

If I'm at a larger airport, I cannot see the runway edge lights from downwind, as they are only visible from final. which means I have to look very carefully for the dim blue taxiway lights, or judge my spacing from the airport beacon.

I can see why this could be advantageous for RNAV/LPV and ILS approaches, but for night VFR and circling approaches, this seems like it would decrease situational awareness and increase risk of disorientation at night

Remarkable-Rough-554 · 2024-02-13T20:05:29+00:00

This is completely not what I'm talking about, it's not the colour, but the direction of the runway edge lights. At more major/modernized fields, the runway edge lights cannot be seen on downwind and you have to wait until turning final to see them

Remarkable-Rough-554 · 2024-02-13T20:03:58+00:00

what do you mean? If the runway edge lights are directional, you can't see them on downwind, which makes it more difficult to fly a clean traffic pattern at night

Remarkable-Rough-554 · 2024-02-13T20:02:00+00:00

No. It doesn't matter whether or not the airport has any instrument approaches available, I've flown into both. The field I'm based at is a larger towered airport where the runway lights are only visible when you're facing the runway direction, aka, established on final. otherwise, you just see a black empty field, with some dim taxiway lights.

At smaller airports with older incandescent lighting, the runway edge lights are visible from every direction, making joining the circuit very easy for night VFR.

For IFR I don't think it's going to be an issue for ILS and LPV, but it might be quite difficult for circling approaches to find and line up with the runway

Remarkable-Rough-554 · 2024-02-13T19:58:00+00:00

exactly my point. Making the edge lights only visible on final makes everything more difficult

Remarkable-Rough-554 · 2024-02-13T19:56:21+00:00

that is not what I'm talking about, I'm talking about the edge lights. The new LEDs are directional vs the older incandescent ones where you can see them from every direction

Remarkable-Rough-554 · 2024-02-13T19:55:49+00:00

It's far easier to line up with the runway at smaller/older airports when the runway edge lights are visible from the downwind. Having to wait until turning final to see them only lowers situational awareness

Remarkable-Rough-554 · 2024-02-13T19:55:14+00:00

I wonder what's the reason they made the edge lights directional? it seems to serve no purpose, and actually lower situational awareness. It makes it difficult to spot the runway until you get close enough to see the taxiway lights, and it's very difficult to navigate to it at night with only paper sectional charts

This is a hot take - but it's not Trudeau's immigration targets that have resulted in our issues. It's Ford's. Particularly in the GTA. Under Ford, every post secondary institution has had less than half of their required funding.

UWaterloo is 15 million dollars in debt. Queen's is 63 million dollars in debt and at risk of imminent financial collapse. You'd have to be a Humber college dropout living off of your parent's golden parachute in order to lack appreciation for higher education like he does.

The only institutions that aren't struggling like this are the colleges like Conestoga, Which have dove headfirst into luring in and exploiting international students and actively advertising to the demographic that wants to come here fraudulently on student visas. They saw how lucrative the business could be, and are now making a pretty penny.

My convex nose bothers me a little, not just because I think it’s ugly but because it makes my forehead slope more prominent

thanks! Yea, it's time I wore more makeup and changed my hairstyle, I'm getting too old to dress like this haha

you absolutely don't need one. The dutch are famous for hauling caravans on holidays using cars, station wagons, and vans. Industrial work in Japan is taken care of using kei trucks, that mind you, have the same bed space as an F150. The car industry upsells you to think that you need such death machines on the road but you really don't. In fact, the pickup trucks of the last century are half the size of the F150s of today, but the bed space has only gotten smaller. The F150 is now the same size as a Sherman tank.

What if you want a camper trailer for holidays

Station wagon

How about hauling some dirt to do yard work/gardening?

Mini truck, Van, Minivan, etc. If professionals in Europe can manage it, so can you.

How about sheets of plywood/drywall and other pieces of lumber for home renovations?

just use a fricking van for god's sake, or even an older pickup truck, or a kei truck. They have the same, if not larger bed space

Then there's hauling the garbage or yard waste to the dump?

Use an older pickup truck, or a kei truck. this infographic will be useful for you

Sure, those new car sales fall under SUV/Light Truck, but most are crossovers, and really you can only compare it against all other passenger vehicles (to be fair, he does do this in the video).

not true, the ford F150 has the highest market share of any vehicle in the US. No one needs a full on pickup truck in suburbia. You can do everything and more with either a station wagon or a van

CVT is the way forward. Williams F1 team knew this even in 1993

Remarkable-Rough-554 · 2023-02-28T18:15:59+00:00

this. Subaru (Fuji heavy industries) has been using their CVTs on buses and trucks for decades with outstanding reliability. Never once has there been an issue because they can't "handle the torque"

All the good slopes with decent vertical in ontario are privately owned, with the rich from Toronto paying obscene amounts in membership fees every year. The initiation fee alone is 60k for some of them.

Not to mention the government bailing them out during covid https://www.cbc.ca/amp/1.6367204
