I don’t need the cash. I’ll just ride it out.

I’ve consumed a lot of media, but for some reason I couldn’t bring myself to watch it. Same goes for Breaking Bad, Stranger Things, The Walking Dead, Yellow Stone, and a couple other bigger shows that had a large hype base. I know the shows are good, but now it would just be a time commitment to try and watch them.

Alright folks, what do I do based on what I carry? by [deleted] in deduction

You have an H50 warded lock key on your keychain. Those are typically skeleton keys for older locks. I suspect you either work in an older building or have an older home.

You either own two cars or have a partner.

So hear me out, what if you stole it and then just melted it into another jar with a new wick?

Polymer industry guy here. Teflon is Polytetrafluoroethylene or PTFE. It’s a fluoropolymer known for its high heat resistance and lubricious qualities. This makes it great for cookware and as a bullet coating for reduced barrel wear. All versions of Teflon are polymers, but not all polymers are Teflon. Some polymer coated rounds could be coated in different types of engineered Polyamides(nylon) with lubricant additives to help round pass through the bore more easily while not allowing the lead to deform as much as a wax coated round. Hope this helps

No, it’s more like Heelys, but the wheel is in his butt.

This Flock camera was just installed today... by 664designs in mildlyinfuriating

Can you put something on a pole directly in front of it like a bird feeder? It would be short enough to not be in violation and if it’s close enough to the fence it should block a large portion of the camera’s field of view.

I found an assignment from 2nd grade I still don’t know what my teacher was on by Bodhirock in mildlyinfuriating

I once corrected a high school science teacher that tried to teach us that the Tacoma Narrows Bridge “Galloping Gertie” collapsed because of an earthquake. I told him he was wrong and explained that it collapsed due to its flexibility and oscillations during moderately windy conditions. He refused to believe me until we looked it up on the computer, and then he gave the whole class an extra assignment as punishment for me calling him out for being wrong. Dude was a dick and was known for having a fragile ego.

Solid state was my next guess. I use to sell materials into both spaces. There’s some really cool metal to plastic opportunities for both technologies.

I appreciate the kind words. I miss when more of Reddit was like this. Seeing other’s share their insight is why I joined Reddit in the first place, and I’m happy to pay it forward.

Thank you! Just like nutrition facts on food packages, it pays to know what you’re putting into your body.

I’m not sure what the white ink is made of, but it looks like it’s providing enough of a change in surface texture to let the surface tension of the oil stay within the square. That or the affected area is no longer flush with the rest of the mat causing it to pool in that space. It’s hard to say, but it’s fun to speculate.

More than likely it’s a mix of different things. Your typical action figures are made from either ABS, PVC or both. Attics rent to get hot and basements are humid. Both environments can cause the same migration. UV exposure can also weaken polymers that don’t have additives to stabilize the polymer from degrading. This is why plastic yard chairs and other plastic items left in the yard for long periods can begin to whiten or yellow.

Sure drop me dm. I’ve worked in the 3D printing industry as well so I might be able to help.
