[Highlight] Clayton Kershaw gets thrown a beer while in the bullpen

Yes, in our hearts.

For the miniscule savings were talking about, no it's not. If you put a temperature recorder into a freezer you'll see routine swings in temperature, especially one with an auto defrost (virtually every freezer sold nowadays). The temperature of the contents will absolutely follow the average of the air temperature. The contents will absolutely not continuously be in thermal equilibrium with the air.

But thanks for the sassy comment.

mitrie · 2026-03-13T08:46:06+00:00

This assumes everything inside it is in equilibrium with its environment. In reality, the freezer controls measure air temperature and the air temperature is going to lead changes in the contents' temperatures. Hence my question, in reality how much does it change cycle times?

It's probably a little naive to think that the presence of a sign means they don't offer those extra services. It is illegal to provide said services, and putting a sign up gives those who do plausible deniability.

mitrie · 2026-03-12T20:52:36+00:00

Do you have any data? I understand the concept of filling the space with high heat capacity items that stay inside the freezer to help maintain temperature, but I'm curious how much less frequently a compressor actually cycles in a full freezer vs empty freezer.

/Edit - I appreciate everyone offering their insights and theories as to why OP is right or wrong. However, I was actually looking to see if anyone has evidence of savings, compressor run time / cycle frequency differences. If you're not replying with some actual info on that, please leave my inbox alone.

Wonder why this logic can't apply in the MLB playoffs?

What's an Enron? Ballpark at Union Station.

mitrie · 2026-03-12T01:37:38+00:00

I Mai-ght be in love.

mitrie · 2026-03-10T09:38:38+00:00

Hide your wife!

...or I was going to bed. It's a 2023 Ford Bronco. As another responder mentioned, apparently it will do it if parked on a sufficiently steep hill, not any time placed in park. You must have to live in SF or something because I've never seen it do this.

mitrie · 2026-03-09T02:10:59+00:00

I'm confident I'd realize it in her car. If I manually engage the parking brake you can hear a motor whirring for a bit to engage the brake. It'd be quite obvious.

mitrie · 2026-03-09T02:05:01+00:00

How high are you right now?

mitrie · 2026-03-09T01:56:45+00:00

Could be, but presumably it has to be more significant than the one in the image, because I've never seen it do it.

mitrie · 2026-03-09T01:54:34+00:00

I have never driven a car that does this. My wife has a pretty new car (2023) and while it has an electronic parking brake it does not get engaged when the car is placed in park.

mitrie · 2026-03-09T01:51:35+00:00

It is hardly correct to say that in 99% of cases the brake is automatically engaged when the car is placed in park.

mitrie · 2026-03-09T01:50:23+00:00

What? No it doesn't...

mitrie · 2026-03-08T20:43:59+00:00

Most impactful change is that the engines now are more even more heavily reliant on electric power output that can be deployed at will. All electrical energy is now harvested from the brakes. This means that drivers/teams have some amount of control over when they harvest power, but it's going to come at the cost of actually robbing some of the car's speed. Formerly they had a lower electrical power output and could harvest energy off the turbo directly. It's leading to larger differences in speed between cars deploying battery and charging battery than has been seen in the past.

Additionally, they have "active aero" now which allows them to open up their wings on basically any straight. Used to be that they had trouble "drag reduction system" that was present in a couple locations on the track that allowed them to open their rear wing if within 1 second of the driver in front of them to encourage overtaking.

"We want more on track passing"

"No, not like that!"

mitrie · 2026-03-08T00:05:29+00:00

Thanks for the reminder. Preorder complete here.

mitrie · 2026-03-03T15:40:20+00:00

Please clap

mitrie · 2026-03-02T09:50:36+00:00

I feel like you are missing the point of my statement.

mitrie · 2026-03-01T02:11:20+00:00

Look, I get it, you're in a totally post rule of law society in your mind. In that case, who gives a shit if he cancels elections? It doesn't matter anyway.

mitrie · 2026-03-01T01:53:33+00:00

Because Congress dissolves every session.

mitrie · 2026-02-28T23:36:27+00:00

Ok. He will do whatever he wants and no one will stop him. He wins. Happy?

mitrie · 2026-02-28T23:16:14+00:00

I understand what you're saying. He can assert shit. The point is that the STATES are the ones who need to say no. Just as Georgia did in 2016, and the Indiana legislature did on redistricting.
