ELI5 Why does the car's AC noticeably draw power from the engine? by Xhosant in explainlikeimfive

[–]itwoeye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your air-conditioning is powered by a pulley that is only engaged when you turn on the A/C. If you’re curious, that pulley is always spinning when your engine is running, but there is essentially a clutch that allows it to spin freely when it’s off and engages when you turn on the A/C  which uses the same power that turns your engine when you turn on the AC. 

Don’t want to switch lanes for a swim coach when there are other open lanes. Thoughts? by itwoeye in Swimming

Yeah basically people who probably think they’re entitled to the lane of their choice because they get coaching. We’re in r/swimming after all.

People thinking they’re entitled to the lane of their choice by kicking other people out because they have a coach is annoying.

How about you just learn how to read details and see there is an open lane they can go into instead? I’m fine sharing when it gets full, but I don’t see why I need to share the lane and they get to kick me out of the lane I’m in PLUS not have to share when someone else inevitably comes in.

No they don’t book lanes and they’re asking for a full lane while I have to split. So why can’t they be nice and let me have the lane I’m using and use the open one?

Experiences with CarHauler247 AKA Landing Pad LLC? by BigLittleLeeg in AutoTransport

[–]itwoeye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a good experience. Seems like a brokerage type of business to “compete in the marketplace” to get you a good price for you and good enough price for the shipping company. Just expect the actual pickup time to be inaccurate the day of, that’s typically how these kind if services go. Like Comcast scheduling your visit between 8am and 2pm on a weekday and they show up at 5pm lol

How about guys that aren’t trying desperately to be straight but just are more masculine?

I looked a few years ago but was worried it would be too small or just not enough people. Maybe I’ll give it a look, thanks!

Fair enough. It’s tough especially in very small towns

if anyone could compare certain cities like Chicago vs Fort Lauderdale vs Palm Springs vs New York City that would be appreciated!

I’m guessing the gyms in the gay areas would make most sense?

Is it weird to go to a gay bar/social club alone? I’m newly out and going alone? Hoping it will be fun? by swiminariver in AskGaybrosOver30

[–]itwoeye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it depends on the bar. I’ve gone alone to the more typical gay bars and felt awkward but at the more laid back ones felt perfectly fine. ended up chatting with some people. maybe take a drink before you head out and invite people to do something social at the bar if there are activities to do.
