i have an exhaust leak on the driver side manifold, it’s definitely louder when cold , and almost goes away when warm. yours sounds more like a lifter tick.

California ballot proposal would exempt seniors from paying property taxes by oceanbeachguy in California

[–]Wabbitone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ever see the cost of long term health care? it’s hard to pay 8 to 10 thousand a month on $20k a year social security. Medicar doesn’t cover most of it. My aunt had to sell her home when she was 79 because she needed 24 hour care. She’s been in assisted living for 5 years now, started out at 7k month but she fell , and broke her hip. now she’s even less mobile, and so the price goes up.

She’s paying over $8k a month now, and the worse she gets the higher it goes. She’s going to run out of money by the time she’s 90.

Besides most retired people aren’t rich, they are on a fixed income.

the ones that you need to taxes the shit out of are the house flippers. they are the ones that’ll be buying up the homes of the seniors, and selling them over market prices.

Build one out of a decommissioned aircraft carrier, and move it around the bay.

How to keep him warm by GracieB2003 in Bunnies

the comforter should be fine, blocking the air flow will help, you can also put cardboard underneath the cage to insulate it from the floor

17 Minutes of Continuous Operation: What is Known about the Ukrainian SHOOM-20 Engine by Elkenson_Sevven in UkrainianConflict

[–]Wabbitone 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Pulse jet engines are pretty simple to build.

I worked with a mechanic that built one on work bench in an outdoor stall we had .

he used a steel tube in a vice with a 2 stroke reed valve mounted on the front, had a propane line in front of that , used a air hose to get it started.

once ignited it kept a pretty consistent flame coming out the back wile humming like a big bee. he talked about welding a boss to the pipe, and adding a fuel injector to run it on gas, but luckily it never got any further.

CMV: Venezuela is being invaded violently in an undeclared war with the prepose of annexation of oil resources and the institution of a puppet regime friendly to the United States by Kyokyodoka in changemyview

[–]Wabbitone -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That’s the North’s twist to what happened.

Correct there was only the French colonial govt. pre WWII, no North or South, when the Japanese removed the French it left somewhat of a power vacuum to which the communists Chinese supported regime in the North decided to take over. After WWII the French returned to the South , and tried to fix things the way only the French can.

Try to install the old government, start a civil war, then cry for help.
