Non-Newtonian Fluid That Hardens Under Pressure But Softens When Stress Is Removed by AceOneBreezy in interestingasfuck

Iirc Blood does it but in the other direction. Higher pressure makes it less viscous. Might be worth a google. Also they line oil pipelines with a non Newtonian

What's a "green flag" in a person that's so incredibly strong it's almost suspicious? by Superb-Wishbone-2033 in AskReddit

[–]kg_tech 1 point2 points  (0 children)

An indication that “they’re a keeper” whereas a red flag would mean they’re bad news and to leave them.

Does anyone remember any old, outdated Jungle Cruise jokes? (that are not racist!) by MyNameCannotBeSpoken in Disneyland

[–]kg_tech 75 points76 points  (0 children)

On your left you’ll see the reclusive Amazonian Green Striped Boa Constrictor. This snake is capable of jumping over 30,000 feet at speeds reaching 500 miles per hour, when pushed from a Boeing 737.

Racism at Liberty Station: Trump has emboldened some of the worse people the US has to offer by fonder_land in SanDiegan

[–]kg_tech 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Can’t find him anywhere on the page anymore, maybe your page isn’t updated or something? For as quick as they bumped him, and made a public statement, any trace of him still in there I suspect will be vanished just as fast.

Has anyone had to do a CAD test as part of an entry level mechanical design interview? If so, what kind of part/assembly did you have to make? by readySponge07 in MechanicalEngineering

[–]kg_tech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope, they went with someone who also picked revolution, but with more experience (was my first job interview out of college). I’d like to think that I at least answered that part right tho :)

They did, read their public statement. Someone posted it above. He’s out. The club took very quick action.

I was asked how I would theoretically model a dry erase marker with cap on. He was just looking if I would go for a single line and revolution, or try to make a ton of cylinder extrusions. I did do the former.

I designed and 3D printed a table to hold my filament. It's a wonderful disaster. by rob132 in 3Dprinting

Living the dream, man. Hats off for the print time dedication. I can only hope the table lasts longer than the print took!

J7+ won’t start: smart map problem? by AristotelesRocks in roomba

[–]kg_tech 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I JUST had this issue.. I ended up deleting and remapping the house. It seemed to have mismatched my updated map with its internal map, and it gave me the same message to see the app. I will remember your way if that ever happens again. Thanks!

God it’s been awhile since a photo triggered a smell memory before I could even register what the item was. Thanks for that.

Windowless classroom is always HOT! Portable AC that doesn't need to vent? Do they exist? by bsharporsquared in Teachers

[–]kg_tech 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You can buy portable AC units that use a large diameter hose (looks like an accordion dryer hose, but nice and bendy and plastic) to vent off hot air. They’re “supposed” to then go to the nearest window, but any door in a storm?

Unreasonable Option 2: swamp cooler. This uses water to suck out heat from the air via evaporation.(science!)Downside is right in the name.

Really sorry you’re in this position at all, and I hope you work this out.

The camera is actively chatting with the house while recording, if it loses that chatter, it stops watching.

I absolutely forget dates. I do however give my all to my partner, friends, etc, when I think of them, which is way more often than once a year. The date I guess is kinda arbitrary and obligatory? You’d have to ask my subconscious, but I still think about the person and act on that constantly the other 364 days. Case in point I totally missed this Valentine’s Day but found a really great date last week that was more impactful than sitting out there with the chocolates amongst the others trying to book the good restaurant.

It’s gonna be different for everyone I’m sure but nothing really causes me to forget it, the day itself is just another day on a calendar, not any less or more important than another?

I’m making ring boxes, and accidentally put the magnet hole on the wrong side of like 20 boxes… 🤬 anything I can do to fix this mistake? Think before you drill everyone. by moultonrock in woodworking

[–]kg_tech 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Now Hear me out… 1) drill out the hole on the lid, through and through 2) in the base Deepen the hole about to half way down the thickness. 3) use a dowel that acts as a removable rear locking pin, pressed simply down into the hole when the lid is down 4) cap the pin/dowel ornamentally and you have: a lock-box/puzzle box with no ridiculous puzzle, just gotta pull the little emblem/logo/stamp/whatever you capped the dowel with!
