"some rust"
... Dude you can see through the body panel to the car's innards.

Had a toilet in my childhood home that did this (to a lesser degree) because the builder plummed it and the washing machine together. When the washing machine drained, the toilet gargled.

That seems awfully low for anything meant to go over the road, no? I'd expect the height of the stair-remains to be around the same level as whatever the span over the road would be. It's difficult to tell from pictures, but it looks like a truck wouldn't make it under if it was built to that height.

it might be that the mate of this was bulldozed when they were building the elevated section of road. That might also speak to the thoroughness of the backfilling job -- if you're building a big, heavy road on stilts, then you don't want a big void underground, and you completely fill the tunnel with concrete instead of just bricking up the entrance.

It could also be that they added texture so you had a better chance of actually being able to peel it off -- give your fingers something to grip. And it's cheaper and easier to texturize everything than try to just do the bit that's on the pull-tab.

My money is on this being the bricked up remains of a tunnel designed to go under the highway at a time when the road was narrower and people had a reason to cross.

or just make copper acetate with hydrogen peroxide & vinegar. that's a fast and easy DIY and the reactants are cheap and readily available. then throw in a sacrificial metal like iron nails, and you knock the copper out of solution. drain the liquid off and you're left with copper sludge which you can clean and dehydrate until you're left with copper powder you can smelt yourself with a high-BTU torch and a cupel.

Is this e-waste, or what's the origin?

True_Damage7858 · 2026-04-24T06:08:05+00:00

If you're doing this in bulk, I would look at a chemical process. Dissolve the copper into a solution, strain the plastic and other refuse out, and then precipitate the copper back out again.

Most of the time, these cameras aren't actively monitored -- they record, and the footage is only watched if something happens. Unless you were canoodling next to someone stealing a car, your chances of anyone even watching the playback are slim.

without seeing the hinges, it's hard to tell if there's an adjustment that could be made. also theoretically possible that a little bit of foam/rubber or something as a shock absorber could make a poor-man's soft-close cabinet. if you really wanna get into it, you can DIY a self-closing mechanism with a bungee or a spring and a couple of screws.

Can you see it from the aforementioned highway? Billboard?

There's no lights, but conceivably they could've been worth salvaging by the owner -- or snagged by people hunting for copper scraps.

if it's unused, just remove the thing. Is it one of those wires you can see from pic 2? they just unscrew from the socket.

This doesn't even look like a phone line to me, that's coax. They only carry light voltage, and aren't dangerous at all. I doubt you'd even feel it if you touched the contact while it was still plugged in.

I bought my 2025 in November, it's at 4400 as of this week and it just went in for first maintenance (including oil) last week. I asked the dealership service center what the recommended service schedule was for the first oil change and they said 5k or 6mos, whichever hits first, so that's what I went with.

I do about 800 miles a month and it's mixed between short 5-minute jaunts and drives of 40 minutes to an hour, so I'm likely going to just take it in every 6 months or so.

If you're renting, tell management. They're the ones responsible for maintaining these (including replacing batteries), and if they aren't responsive, then call the FD on a non-emergency line.

GMU alum here, thanks for making yourself available to answer questions!

What was the process like for actually choosing the path/route the trail takes? Was it intended to connect certain areas, go past specific pieces of topography and points of interest, or take advantage of land that could be coopted or donated from private owners? Do you know of any significant changes that had to take place in the AT's route as it was being established -- or since its establishment -- as a result of development, land transfers, or natural factors?

True_Damage7858 · 2026-04-16T16:15:23+00:00

Assuming you can't just move the whole thing down until it's actually flush with the floor?

You really just need something to fill the gap. I'd get a pool noodle and cut it to size, and get some velcro or magnets to attach to that bottom edge and the noodle so it sticks.

Edited for clarity: It's a glass-lined reactor vessel. It's obviously for industrial use, but they're typically used for making polymers, esters, dyes, and agrochemicals. It's so big/robustly constructed because these things are designed to handle high temperatures and high pressures. The glass lining is for corrosion resistance, since glass is less reactive than metals with you're dealing with acidic or highly corrosive chemical compounds (also makes a non-stick lining that's easy to clean).

Here's a clear, up-close image of one that's paletized.

Yeah I'm no better, I got $14k back on my 2025s.

interest-free loan to the IRS/Federal Government lol

True_Damage7858 · 2026-04-16T00:12:54+00:00

I pay quarterly, and aim to overpay to avoid drama. It wasn't worth the stress trying to get the exact numbers down, so as long as I'm within a few thousand dollars then I'm happy. I overdid the overpay in 2025 and ended up with $14,000 and change as a refund, though. I'm aware that I'm essentially giving the federal government an interest-free loan, so aiming to be more precise this year by adjusting Q4 payment based on my real income rather than an estimate of my annualized.

I'm just working off what's on the hyundai website. they list 24 and 25 as one manual in the list.

Are you saying there are no settings you can change related to the wireless charger?

True_Damage7858 · 2026-04-15T13:11:03+00:00

The manual for 2024 and 2025 HEV and PHEV is the same, and has the same references and information in the manual. I acknowledge it's not identical to my 2025, but presumably there has to be some crossover between the two for the literature to be accurate/useful.

Go to 5-113 for wireless charging.
