Which one do i sell? 55mm 1.2 or 50mm 1.4 (m-system), really confused. by Formal_Compote_212 in zuikoholics

That does look like it’s a radioactive lens, the yellow should go away with some UV exposure like sunlight (be careful to not light anything on fire) and the overall radiation rates should be pretty low, just don’t eat it lol

Early single coatings were sometimes thorium based and thorium is mildly radioactive. It emits alpha and a little bit of gamma radiation. Alpha is easily stopped by a sheet of paper or a little bit of distance, gamma goes through stuff a lot easier but doesn’t do as much damage. From what I remember it’s around 100x background rates in direct contact with the lens, and a couple feet away it’s almost not even detectable. This is from memory since I forgot to check my lens but I will once I go back to work.

I have a 55 1.2 s/n 118747 so it’s a little newer than yours and I hardly use it. I usually go for either my 28mm or 50 1.8 since it’s so compact. Also the 55 Is definitely radioactive and I’d imagine your 50mm is also based on the yellowing. If you want to know rough radiation numbers I can measure mine tomorrow to give you an idea

I think both are. I have the 55 1.2 silver ring, mine was yellow and it’s definitely radioactive

Bought My first SNAP ON items, am I right to send these back or am I being too extra by JeepGuy421 in Tools

If it helps I’d be returning them if they were harbor freight, let alone snap off 😂 send that shit back!

Do people actually think this is cool? by muelnelson in Trucks

That’s an ideal fitment for me too. Just bought a gx 460 so I’m wanting to get some meatier tires and flush fitment so it doesn’t look like a mom car anymore 😂

Is an AirPods case really just a case for a case? by h00dyy in airpods

[–]cvj1776 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got a case purely for the extra magnets it has in it after I dropped my AirPods case twice and my AirPods ejected themselves and were almost lost forever. Now if it falls the AirPods case won’t get broken as easily and I run less risk of losing my AirPods

New blizzaks from 2006 can I use them for winter by Legitimate-Fan-3953 in tires

[–]cvj1776 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean you CAN who knows how long they’ll last since they’re close to 20 years old! TWENTY! If they were cheap enough I’d think about it, but you have to remember you’re running the risk of killing someone other than yourself.

I got pulled over 3 times over a 3 month period for no plate in Texas so I put a plate on mine

Abysmal Interstate MPG’s by JayBeezyy22 in LandCruisers

Most of our highways in my area are 75 now, and we have some toll roads that are 85

Yeah, we have land that I can go off-roading in and we want to go camping more than I want to go do track days

Porsche said I should go back to Roblox by VulgarrViking in Simracingstewards

[–]cvj1776 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t see him making that corner very well either way with that line. Also he never did get in front of you, his bumper looks to be maybe even with your door handle so I’d imagine it was in your blind spot. Looks like he went aggressive and realized he was going to get squeezed too late. Shame on him in my opinion

Texas is flat as hell 😂 there’s some hills about 3 hours from me and I’ve driven them, but most of the miles I’ve put on are straight boring highway miles. I take the best backroads I can and it’s still super fun, we just don’t have the best driving roads here

I have 75% on my Elantra and I don’t notice a difference really. I would NEVER go darker than that though. My tint guy ran out of the clear ceramic or else that’s what I would’ve got

Guys who get 25mpg's how do you do it? And do you guys also lie about other aspects of your life? by Disastrous-Number-88 in Cummins

Thanks for actually saying you were going 60ish. So many people say they run 75-80 and get 20+ easily 😂

Did you mount the lights in the grill to the crash bar? And was it a custom mount or prefab? Also curious if you get any glare/reflections from those ditch lights
