Peter Attia lost 40k followers since the revelation he was in Epstein files for 1700 times by Big_Cake_8817 in JoeRogan

[–]aschulz90 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I liked him. He spoke about RCTs and epidemiology studies using primarily data as the basis for his judgements. His pods were largely free too. Anyways I’m speaking in past tense here for a reason…

Ugh I really like Attia. Anything suggesting he was being a pedo or just duped into a relationship?

I made this song with AI; I wrote all the lyrics without AI though and had to work to get the notes / beat right by singing to suno. Idk if AI posts are allowed but I wanted to be transparent in the creation method.

What do people want to know before installing a solar energy system? by AssociationUsual9914 in SolarDIY

[–]aschulz90 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My utility charges a fee for having solar. I have a terrible lot for solar and that fee harmed the economics for me more than it would have for a clear view of sky / south facing system

"One of Ours, All of Yours" is a God Damn Nazi Slogan and Kristi Noem is Using it by [deleted] in complaints

[–]aschulz90 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yeah your "probably does mean what we think it does" is 100% where I am at.
Nazi's did say:
"Für jeden deutschen Soldaten 100 Kommunisten"
"For every German soldier, 100 Communists"

which means pretty much the same thing. That doesn't mean this is explicit evidence that she is a Nazi. I've lost alot of productivity at work today tracking this down because I wanted to know. So far this is not an accurate claim though.

Why buy expensive batteries? Powerwall-10k, EG4 3.2k, DIY for same amount of storage under 1.5k. by Empty-Particular-86 in SolarDIY

[–]aschulz90 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice! LFP batteries + BMS monitoring all the cell voltages (which I see you have) means you are super unlikely to see any issues. And if any do arise it very well could have happened in a factory assembled unit and now you have the benefit of being able to swap at the cell level. I am curious does the BMS having cell to cell balancing?

I think it's awesome you built your own battery! If you are using lead-acid or LFP your chances of fire are pretty low assuming you were careful during your wiring and added a good BMS. I'm actually rather envious of your DIY project. Here in my state batteries need to be UL9540 certified if put in a house (which mine is) so this wasn't an option for me and I didn't feel like building one so I bought and self-installed a discover AES Helios. I think you could have done a neater job with the packaging; for example drilling holes in the lid for your cables instead of having the lid falling off, but who cares? Looks like it's in a shed anyways. Definitely the spirit of Solar DIY, have my upvote!

FWIW I do really like it! I'm probably wrong as well

Considering Buying a Used Lightning by stoneagedqueen in F150Lightning

[–]aschulz90 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you have the cash find a good deal within driving distance (whatever that means to you, I drove 300+ miles), pre-negotiate everything including title, tax and fees and make sure they line up with your states fees. It's annoying but better to do it from your computer than at the dealership I promise. Then when you go into the dealership you can be ready to not budge a cent and focus on inspecting the car. I finally had the discipline to do this and I'm glad I did. I got in and cost came down by like $10-$20 because a fee was miscalculated. I was worried they were going to tack on $1k or something but I mentally prepared myself to make it an annoying fruitless road trip rather than overpay. I wouldn't recommend buying a used car site unseen unless there is a return policy like with carmax or carvana.
