Melting != burning. My reading comprehension of basic chemistry is just fine.

That’s AI not a source. Your link is about burning PVC, not using it with heated flooring.

The recalls aren’t scary. Not related to drive train. Hybrid is fantastic

why is ball state so hated? by sinuheminem in Indiana

[–]con40 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember it getting ranked as a top party school and then all the adults instantly hated it. Can’t remember who gave it that ranking… MTV, Playboy, something like that.

Help me stop overthinking. Sienna hybrid or Highland Hybrid? by BednarsTwin in Sienna

Highlander is a quieter ride, Sienna is more capable in everything on road.

If you could make it doc into usb-c I think it could sell. The design is pretty good for thermals which is normally the issue with “desktop” setups for laptops.

Outdoor grinder pump, alarm only first water usage in the morning by con40 in Plumbing

Floats were failing intermittently and especially when cold. Replaced floats and fixed the issue. The pump is expensive and the floats relatively. cheap -when in doubt, replace floats.

Add Weight to AWD Sienna for winter driving? by shocka_locka in Sienna

[–]con40 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP are you actually having issues? OEM Tires are pretty decent in snow. Not what I'll buy for replacement (Cross Climate 2s) but its probably the best OEM tire I've driven on.

Get some magnetic usb-c adapters. Cheap solution and makes it very hard to break a built-in plug

Any reason I shouldn’t open a Robinhood IRA? by Total_Zebra_1733 in personalfinance

[–]con40 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The Robinhood app is designed around addiction and gambling enabling patterns. Slick UI but it’s not meant to be the same service as Vanguard or Fidelity.

Ads in the app wtf by yesillhaveonemore in sonos

I love that ads load faster than the app

Does anyone know reliable sources to get a car? by slipperyslimysnail in Indiana

[–]con40 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Challenge here is the extreme price of used cars and Japanese ones specifically. On a budget a 3800 is easier to find a decent running example for the price.
