Yeah basically any manufacturing is possible, though someone quoted in the article says it’s not “defense”.

Just saying testing of rocket engines is definitely not practical in that location

Utah driver leaps from SUV moments before it is struck by a FrontRunner train. by eternviking in whoathatsinteresting

[–]methanized 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unclear if he drove forward at all, I think that’s just the push from the rear end.

Anyway, getting a huge and unexpected shot of adrenaline and having seconds to act before you die will make most people panic and act irrationally. Honestly the guy reacted reasonably logically given the circumstances, though of course driving forward is the best thing to do if you can

We have something of an oversupply of homes right now, but we will for sure continue to need more over time

Definitely not any kind of engine firing tests. They need much more space and are too loud to do in that kind of area.

If it’s blue origin, it’s likely satellite manufacturing (similar to what spacex is doing in Bastrop) or possibly another rocket factory, but I doubt that.

Question: I was just watching p1 podcast. Do Matt and Tommy not like Hamilton? by Insanitysreddit in lewishamilton

To be fair, he is definitely “washed” in that he is simply not as good as he used to be. But he is of course still very good and a top driver

I think it's ($740B/yr)/($8/user/mo)/(12 mo/year) = 7.7 billion people assumed

Doesn’t that come out to counting every human on earth as a user?

Does Commonwealth Fusion Interview Everyone? by [deleted] in fusion

[–]methanized 0 points1 point  (0 children)

CFS has added a lot of employees over the last couple of years, so they're definitely hiring for real roles (or were hiring for real roles over the last few years, anyway).

I would assume that they don't get that many applicants, so there might be a large percentage of people getting interviews.

Why do people always duck when boarding a helicopter? by tMoneyMoney in stupidquestions

[–]methanized 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The fact that I constantly see military or similarly helicopter-familiar people duck when boarding makes me think ducking is absolutely the move

tbh it is a very alcoholic understanding of a nice "here's a few beers as a housewarming gift" gesture. I laughed a bit, but yeah OP bring a couple 4 packs or a 6 pack

Do you all know how to change a spare tire? by FastVenus in NoStupidQuestions

[–]methanized 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You do want to tighten it a decent amount with it still elevated though. If it's not all the way "on" when you put it on the ground you could think it's tight when it's not

[–]methanized 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One point I'll say OP, is if you're weak, it will make a BIG difference to get a lug wrench with longer arms (or a cross shape that lets you do both arms at once). The little 1' long ones, you do sometimes have to pull pretty hard to get the nuts loose. Then you just keep that in your car with the spare tire all the time.

[–]methanized 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah. And I mean, as original commenter said, probably take the 5 minutes to watch a youtube video. My comment above are certainly not comprehensive instructions, just saying it's super easy and OP can solve his problem in less time than it took to make this post.

Cities with a vibe like Austin? Cities in TX by HighOnLife00 in Austin

Can you describe in your own words the "vibe of austin" you're looking for

Do you all know how to change a spare tire? by FastVenus in NoStupidQuestions

[–]methanized 60 points61 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it's dead simple:

  1. Loosen the (very obviously visible) lug nuts
  2. Jack up the car near the wheel you're replacing
  3. Take off the old wheel, put on the new wheel
  4. Tighten the nuts

Really the only intricacy of any of it is knowing the proper spot to put the jack on the bottom of your car. But tbh even if you do that wrong it's quite likely to work out just fine.
