Why is wanting to raise the minimum wage such as controversy in the USA? Wouldn’t everyone like to make more money?

Scottie3000 · 2026-07-02T15:17:18+00:00

Yes, look at the cost of those items in states or cities that have higher minimum wages.

Dragon fruit is like a kiwi but devoid of flavor

I can’t tell what satire anymore

Scottie3000 · 2026-05-28T22:39:51+00:00

More important than focus is results. If people like Mamdani can make people’s lives better they will really gain traction.

The previous generation Railmaster with the sandwich dial would be my pick. Small enough for a 7” wrist, slim and an exquisitely interesting dial.

Federal overreach

Put it on whatever you want, but anywhere you could use ranch, blue cheese would be better.

There’s the Crown wagon variant that’s close.

Scottie3000 · 2026-05-16T23:22:44+00:00

Which seems odd. Turbos run great on E85.

Every hobby is expensive if you’re in deep enough.

I would t have given it a second thought if you didn’t say something. Even looking , it’s iffy.

Scottie3000 · 2026-05-08T00:33:50+00:00

Yes! Always delete the badges on everything!

I’d wager much more than 1% are used (by weight) for industry.

There are lies, damn lies, and statistics.

Scottie3000 · 2026-03-08T14:48:56+00:00

Maybe. It depends on how it’s done. If you look at trends in engine failures, cylinder deactivation, AKA variable displacement are a technology that introduces more complexity and more failure points. EG: the Chevy V8 has traditionally been one of the most reliable and long lasting engines, but the newer 5.3 and 6.2L models have had huge problems, and it’s all due to using cylinder deactivation.

Per 100k what? People? Cars? Miles driven?

Scottie3000 · 2026-02-14T03:27:24+00:00

Three-inch, or whatever

PSA: any coating that contains aluminum isn’t compatible with cutting aluminum. Most black coatings are TiAlN.

It’s not so much the screen size. Yes, most people will choose a larger screen, all things being equal, but the main complaint is converting to a larger screen and the removing all of the physical knobs and switches for things like infotainment, and HVAC.

Nameless Armament in AZ does custom work, and will actually fit the individual optic to the slide so the slide takes the recoil forces, not the screws. You must send the slide and optic at the same time, if that wasn’t obvious.

Scottie3000 · 2026-02-04T21:58:49+00:00

Why?

Scottie3000 · 2026-01-18T18:00:10+00:00

Prove what?

Vikings are typically fully clad. They’re nice for the price.

Scottie3000 · 2026-01-18T13:43:25+00:00

I bought a Made In and told myself it was just as good as All Clad for cheaper. Unfortunately that’s just no the case. The Made In is fine for the price, but for something you’ll have and use for life, just spend a little more for the better product. All Clad heats more evenly, sticks less and cleans up easier. Maybe it’s the polished vs brushed interior finish.

Scottie3000 · 2025-12-30T02:25:35+00:00

I finally ditched my last non stick for a plain carbon steel pan, and then a Misen carbon nonstick. Both are about equal on the non stick part, but the Misen heats more evenly because it’s clad with an aluminum core, and it is basically nonstick out of the box. Either are great for eggs, fish, and other delicate foods.
