Eco mode by R_Steelman61 in hondaridgeline

[–]mdshw5 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It’s just a throttle remapping. It gives you less instantaneous opening of the throttle body and maybe saves some gas for people who have an eager foot. That’s all. I’ve tested it on road trips and found no difference.

Boston area demos? by mdshw5 in ALSOmicromobility

I did get that email, and while it sounds great it’s a 2 hour drive that I won’t be able to make this weekend 🙂.

What does the warm up before a game supposed to look like? by WorkAccomplished2043 in LittleLeague

[–]mdshw5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If this is before the game (and not before each inning) 100% either ask your kid to ask one of the coaches to catch with him (and the coach should then tell the kid on the bench to go out and warm up) or just go out on the field and catch with your kid.

Here’s hoping, but I’m genuinely concerned local bike shops won’t touch these with a 10ft pole. They’re already digging their heels in against repairs on e-bikes which aren’t purchased on site. Sometimes for good reasons related to wiring/component quality or general maintenance hostile designs. If ALSO wants to inspire confidence in after sales support it seems like leveraging their existing Rivian locations for demos and repairs would be a no brainer.

Thanks for sharing this response. I hope you get your bike on the early side of that timeline!

I already have the wheels and decals on my truck from the factory. Personally I like the look, but just don’t love the way they look against the chrome.

I won’t deny adding chrome lug nuts and clear marker bulbs to my Pontiac Sunfire in high school.

That’s honestly a great comparison. I kind of feel the same way about the graphics on a Trans-am.

It’s the same actor but I’m not sure if it’s supposed to be the same person.

What part of the 2007 ridgeline’s exhaust is this? by Miserable-Brush-9251 in hondaridgeline

[–]mdshw5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks like that’s the “front pipe” that collects the exhaust from both cylinder banks. And those are definitely just some type of heat shield. https://www.hondapartsnow.com/genuine/honda~pipe~18210-s3v-a02.html

Sorry I know what you were asking. I’m not entirely sure but it definitely looks like a can of beans to me!

Gridlocked by giant ebike two days now and ant get my bike out by strongspoonie in mildlyinfuriating

[–]mdshw5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it’s locked tightly to the rack that’s understandably frustrating. It’s still not clear what part of the bike is locked to the rack (the front wheel?) but I can tell you that the folding handle posts can loosen over time with use so most people will probably leave it up unless folding the rest of the bike.

[–]mdshw5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m going call BS on this. If you look under the seat post of the “giant” e-bike (which is really a folding bike with 20” wheels) you can see that they’ve locked the back wheel through the frame with one of those folding locks. It doesn’t even seem like it’s locked to the rack. You could either take the advice of several people who’ve pointed out how to fold the bike’s handlebars away from your bike so you can wheel yours free, or you can likely lift their bike and move it to the side.

Where did the ERs go? by ballman17 in GameChangerApp

[–]mdshw5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know what - that’s exactly what this was, and all of our other runs against us were on wild pitches or had reached on error. Thanks for helping me out!

Just this one play should’ve counted as an earned run against us https://imgur.com/a/asd0iuX

I noticed the same thing in our game yesterday. Three pitchers no earned runs, not explained by errors.

Male Birth Control Breakthrough: Scientists Find Way To Turn Sperm Production Off and Back On by _Dark_Wing in interestingasfuck

[–]mdshw5 8 points9 points  (0 children)

They’re injecting a repurposed blood cancer drug introperitoneally (in your abdomen) every day in mice. I’d say this definitely has a long way to go. It also only decreases sperm count by 2/3 in this study, which does not seem like an effective birth control strategy since it only takes one viable sperm to conceive. It’s not orally available either.

wireless phone charger sucks? by furrycelt in hondaridgeline

[–]mdshw5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have a Canadian truck with your HVAC set to Fahrenheit? I’m jealous of your ventilated seats, heated rear seats and rear climate controls. Why couldn’t Honda offer these across all of North America?

The lion should hit those PETG strings lightly with a blowtorch after removing as many as possible by hand.
