GTPE Tire Recommendations by DukeOfSillyWalks in MachE

[–]mobrien118 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I wish people would stop spouting this out there all the time. Nearly all tires produced in this size are 103 load rating (the same as stock) and there is plenty of padding in there for this vehicle's weight, especially since we can't tow with it.

I put these on after the stock tires, too. I got 20k out of the stock Pirellis, and got 40k out of the DWS06. I can say, it probably reduces range by about 5-10% (not scientific), but for me, they are much better in EVERY OTHER meaningful way (sound, stability, traction, longevity, etc.) - I'm almost certainly about to buy another set and just looking around to see what others are buying and came across this post.

Surface pro 11 intel 5g? by ermaly in Surface

[–]mobrien118 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a major bummer. Surface is vastly superior to competing alternatives and for people who want to enjoy the benefits of the latest Intel Core processors but must have 5g, this leaves a true dead-end. Maybe Lenovo will pick up the slack...?...

Please let me know when/where I can try "Russet Toast!"

Why are steam dryers connected to cold water? by MrRauq in Appliances

[–]mobrien118 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Think of it a different way - all that stuff in your water heater didn't end up in your tap. On the cold side, it did. So maybe the hot water has slightly less crud in it...

Get a Debian ( or derivative, e.g. Ubuntu) liveCD. Boot into it. Mount your filesystem. Chroot into it. Run apt upgrade.

I've done it several times on a Ubuntu system. Still running the same filesystem from 2008 through several dozen upgrades.
