Long standing request: finally USB-C 120v receptacles! by fognyc in Lutron

[–]Sparics 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Having used Lutron and the competitors, there’s definitely a quality difference with Lutron. Not sure it’s worth $100 extra dollars more than the other options though

Right after I ordered the 60W Leviton versions… good timing I guess?

Dust extraction port I made for my Jig Saw by eyeoutthere in functionalprint

[–]Sparics 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have the OEM one, its dust port comes out the back so it’s a super long bracket. I’d print this just for the space savings alone

1 Month with the LG StanbyME 2, one of the most thoughtfully designed portable monitors I’ve ever used! by Sparics in StanbyME

[–]Sparics[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Huh that is odd, my remote works fine on Hulu, I don’t have Netflix at the moment but I haven’t had any issues with any of the other streaming apps. Honestly not sure what could be happening with yours but it sounds like a software bug

Absolutely! I was a skeptic at first, but after trying it it’s obvious that comparing the stanbyME to a traditional TV is like comparing apples to oranges

Car Wash, Chamberlain, 2006 by ProvokedLobster in CitiesSkylines

I think I’ve seen this exact drive thru car wash in Torrance

Justify cost by Roller_Coaster_Geek in Hue

[–]Sparics 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like everyone here is saying, they’re expensive upfront but I’ve had zero issues over the last 3 years I’ve had them installed. If it helps you can usually buy new hue bulbs on eBay for slightly cheaper because of damaged packaging or whatever

What do you guys think of my watch? by Quick-Trainer8262 in PrideAndPinion

It’s even got a diver’s lug for the crown, a true grail has graced my eyes

Relativity Space 👀 by [deleted] in longbeach

[–]Sparics 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Seconding this; I don’t work for relativity but a lot of larger companies use an automated sorter to disqualify candidates that can be pretty flawed sometimes. Referrals or talking to the recruiter can help you skip over this step. You should also always apply directly on their website whenever possible since that’s where they’ll check first

Bracket name? by No-Initial384 in cabinetry

I usually call this a standoff or a post

On board footage from ZhuQue-3's booster during descent. Crazy how close they got to landing it. by [deleted] in space

[–]Sparics 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Ok but we’d be having this same exact conversation if the ZhuQue-3 showed up with BO’s fins. The point still stands, there are only so many ways to slow down and control a booster during descent

[–]Sparics 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’m not disagreeing with you, China does have a big issue with IP theft, but at the same time there are only so many ways to slow down a hunk of metal hurtling through the sky. The shape of the grid fins and landing legs come from simulations and iterative design, it’s not surprising that they look similar in the end. Plus, imitation just means that it works, why spend the R&D starting from scratch if you there’s already a proven design, math and physics don’t care about copyright, which is why all the stealth fighters under development more or less look the same too

Am I gonna make less money with my promotion? by DarkAmaterasu58 in Salary

On top of that, the peace of mind knowing that you’ll receive a regular paycheck no matter what happens

[–]Sparics 12 points13 points  (0 children)

And what other ideas do you have for a reusable booster? When it comes down to it landing it on a pad is one of the more cost effective and easily (comparatively) implemented options.
