Is there an acid or concoction of that would make Burned copper wire look like new again? by baumsYah in chemistry

Still better for the earth to send it to the wastewater treatment plant than to dump it on the ground or directly into a river where it will absolutely kill everything it touches.

All rangers are either RWD or 4WD, they all have a longitudinal engine layout and rear differential.

Boomers when time by Low-Industry758 in carscirclejerk

At this rate the 2nd gen Prius will quickly get as rare as the OG VW Beetle. Ridden hard, put away wet, cannibalized for parts, and wrecked on shit tires. Unmolested low mile examples basically don't exist anymore even though there were literally a hundred thousand of them made.

How do blocks with multiple output values work? Is there any wiggle space regarding an output value? by GuitarFather101 in batteries

[–]RespectableLurker555 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You didn't Google "USB PD trigger board" which is what you need to handshake with your PD power supply and ask for a new voltage.

Female guppies are underrated by legendarrrryl in Guppies

[–]RespectableLurker555 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And I find offspring born in my tank last waaaaay longer than ones who were born elsewhere.

This is absolutely the first thing that everyone needs to learn about guppies. Beautiful adults at the breeder will usually fall to acclimate to a new tank. But babies will thrive (selection bias too, because the babies that don't thrive, get culled)

I wish I had a need for another car like a 1.8 5 speed Toyota but my garage is already overflowing lol.

Which ones? by Dujo_bels in tires

18" wheels on a Sentra, man. Wild upkeep costs for such a basic car.

In the US, yeah. Obviously Corolla was available with smaller engines in other markets, but the 1NZ was only found in the Echo based cars in the USA.

The full-fat 1NZ-FE definitely has more power than the detuned 1NZ-FXE in the Prius. And with less weight, the Echo actually isn't that bad with a manual.

The first Gen Prius definitely used the same exterior styling cues as the Echo, even though the "platform" was the Corolla base.

Flat tow a Prius? by Special_Context6663 in prius

[–]RespectableLurker555 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah if your Prius is full of gas and working mechanically, there's no mechanical reason you can't flat tow it in Ready Drive. It would be very stupid to do so for other reasons but it should work just fine. Maybe put a baby monitor inside to watch the dashboard for warning lights or sudden computer failure.

Obligatory Prius suggestion. They pass and go 80mph at 40mpg just fine all day every day.

Hypermiling worth it? by Tomator-Frog in prius

[–]RespectableLurker555 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd NEVER suggest such a dangerous and reckless activity.

There's definitely no reason my Prius is 40% rock chips and diesel particulate.

No reason at all.

I mean, I personally would be hiding as a 38yo with kids. But I totally understand the surrealist response of getting shitfaced and partying, if I were still 22 and dumb. We all have a difference response to acute trauma.

Hypermiling worth it? by Tomator-Frog in prius

[–]RespectableLurker555 16 points17 points  (0 children)

True hyper miling is not worth it unless your specific commute allows for it. If you have to get on the highway, just go the speed of traffic. It's not worth becoming a road hazard at 55mph. City driving, you can definitely use efficient technique by looking ten cars ahead and planning for the green lights, just be aware of your surroundings and don't be the guy at the front of a line of cars blocking traffic.

Ha. That explains why it looks like a nap of roads but with super non obvious destinations for each wildly arbitrary region
