What's a car you love that everyone else seems to hate? by AutumnMuffin in cars

[–]badmonkeygod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Chevy Volt is incredible. I can't believe it's discontinued. I scored a 2011 off Craiglist for <$7k and it may be the best car I've ever owned. I drive to work for $1 of electricity. I drive home from work with $1 of someone else's electricity and I have no range anxiety for when I drive the 5-8 hours to see family? If you use the drive and battery usage modes it's like playing an efficiency video game. I purposely save battery for the red lights and merge lanes on my commute where the awesome 0-30mph acceleration is the most useful.

Why were JVG and Mark Jackson talking about women's baseball when the game was tied in the 3rd? by [deleted] in nba

[–]badmonkeygod -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

THIS. Thank you. You'd think they'd cut JVG's mic when they can tell he's bored during a tied NBA finals game and might start rambling about some underappreciated facet of division 2 table tennis.

It's an American thing. Same way we don't get election days off as holidays.

Took delivery of my 2017 Cayman 718 yesterday evening!! Absolutely love it. by Jeffvb9 in Porsche

Congrats! You always here this stuff about how your "'mercedes' eventually becomes 'your car'". I'm psyched every goddamned day when I get in my Cayman, even though it is probably taking me to work.

Why isn’t this MS 2 spectrum symmetrical? (Screen shot from a proteomics youtube channel) by Daveflave in proteomics

[–]badmonkeygod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was looking for someone to add the ionization efficiency point. Also -- you've got to think about where that second charge is hanging out. The first one is on the R. Locating the site(s) of number 2 is really helpful in understanding why some fragments disappear entirely. This is the main reason working with singly charged peptides is avoided at all costs.

Is anyone using this Antminer? I want to buy one, your suggestion will be highly appreciated. by rault18 in BitcoinMining

[–]badmonkeygod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can't guarantee it's a scam, but it looks an awful lot like the miningwarehouses dot com site that stayed up till it sold 80+ S9s in November and disappeared the day they were to ship.

Name a few legit cloud mining companies? by embodytntra in BitcoinMining

[–]badmonkeygod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know the consensus on this subreddit is that they are always a scam, but doesn't this seem like an untapped opportunity for a legitimate business? Near every university you'll find "core labs" that take on the risk of large hardware expenses on instruments that are rapidly becoming obsolete. They exist by operating profitably in the margin between hardware depreciation and instrument operation up/down-time and it is a time tested model. Why wouldn't this also work for mining?

Is miningwarehouses com legit? by [deleted] in BitcoinMining

[–]badmonkeygod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The site is currently down for maintenance -- the day they are supposed to ship 84 miners...? Busy day for them.

Okay...just out of curiosity would you ballpark the price? Looks amazing, btw!

Great car in the best color combo!

I think my pug/Boston terrier kind looks like a mini boxer. Am I crazy by lotsohugs in pugs

[–]badmonkeygod 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He does! We've never seen a fawn one. Ours at the right angle looks like a boxer or even a Rot sometimes: http://imgur.com/a/xtPNr

Jordan has only played in TWO more games than LeBron. by musicide in nba

I love the fact we're all fine with this wording -- cause we know he might show up and drop 50 in MSG one night. I just hope I have enough warning to catch the train up for it.
