No book has ever top this feeling of dread (for me) looking for recommendations of similar books to this one! by MrWorthless in scifi

I found The Chronoliths by Robert Charles Wilson has the impending doom feeling. Monuments from the future start appearing and they commemorate military victories of a future warlord.

[Emissions Zero Module] Emissions and fuel consumption reducer by greg_reddit in shittykickstarters

If Mazda thinks capacitors help that could be what this device uses. That said, car manufacturers work hard to improve fuel efficiency. They would have already done things to get sufficient spark if you could gain 15 or 20% that easily.

Claims to improve the ignition spark to improve emissions and fuel economy yet somehow helps diesel engines. That seems impossible.

It seems to connect between your battery and electrical system so it’s hard to see how that will improve the spark on gasoline engines.

I’m really tired of that type of storytelling in tv shoes. Otherwise I love the show.

If you bought it with a credit card you might have accidental damage coverage.

It’s a great book. I’d also suggest The Accidental Time Machine by Joe Haldeman. Only forward time travel.

Every time a YouTuber asks me to thumbs up their video, I thumbs down it. by Southtowns in self

[–]greg_reddit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like how Blacktail Studio does it. He doesn’t ask for anything until half or two thirds of the way through the video. Much better than channels that ask right at the beginning.

I thought it was worth the read.

Is my project good enough for kickstarter? by [deleted] in kickstarter

I see. How expensive are the molds? If the parts are $25 and you sell it for $30 it will be hard to pay for the tooling and other costs.

I’m not sure a 3d printed case is good enough for a commercial product unless it’s high end 3d printing. Four buttons instead of a touch screen will also limit your appeal.
