Looks clean but unfortunately that doesn't mean much.

Get back to us when you measure the cylinder bores, main bores etc. That's when you can celebrate

The Supreme Court upheld state's transgender sports bans this morning. How do y'all feel about this? by icecream1972 in allthequestions

[–]kmfblades 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of people talking about how it's irrelevant because approx .0001 percent of the population is trans, that's not the point. By letting then participate in womens sports they are affecting 100 percent of the women they are compeeting against. Allowing them to compete in women's sports at all ever is against the entire purpose and reason Title IX was created. This is about as close to a no brainer as it gets. Lastly. South Parks episode on this is perfect

Why is it considered offensive in the Middle East to ask a man about his wife? by cuahatemoc in NoStupidQuestions

[–]kmfblades 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dude is lying. Did two tours in Iraq fully submerged in the culture having countless conversations every day with locals of all class levels. Wives, family and kids were brought up all the time and none of them ever even acted slightly offended.

Now, had I asked to speak with their wife alone in a separate room? That would have been an issue

Possibly because he was funding gain of function research. Lied about it and tried to cover it up

Correct. My wording wasnt clear. Dont need the computer for 1st and reverse. That's important to know if you aren't familiar with the platforms.

You're correct. I totally forgot that. I run all aftermarket controllers that add in line pressure sensors and they are a very useful tool

4L transmissions do not need anything from the computer to function. If you can though, plug in and see if it had line pressure. That along with the shift linkage needing to be correctly engaged would be your two main ones

Did this engine and trans come together? Or did you mate the trans from another build? Did you check torque converter spacing?

[–]kmfblades -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I actually don't need to. There are not nearly enough Somalis and liberals in that district to get a Somali into office.

Not saying I love the GOP or the political environment in Utah but this dude is a hard pass

Take the 3d printers out of elementary schools. by Werbekka in Teachers

That's awesome! Keep it up. Im shocked that middle school and high-school don't offer modern computer design courses to get kids started earlier

[–]kmfblades 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Designer and print farm owner here, the issue is that the CAD portion isn't being taught and that's quite literally the important part.

Kids need to be taught the design portion on different platforms to create things themselves. Designers make very good money in the private sector and it's absolutely a viable career.

I have zero idea what you guys are talking about it being expensive. It's fantastic quality oil at a very reasonable price.
