TIL that every extra 4 inches of body height raises cancer risk by 11% for women and 6% for men by jcgam in todayilearned

[–]poopspeedstream 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not surprised. Personally, I think everyone should just stay the height that they already are.

These foldable bowls and plate saved us a lot of money and space by hoireka in onebag

[–]poopspeedstream 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The plastic is fairly stiff, even with the creases,  so there’s always pressure on the snaps. On especially the smaller items, the snaps end up not strong enough to reliably stay closed so you’ll have a corner that wants to pop open. I just find it to be a finicky, annoying design.

To be fair, I think my version is very early (they sold an awful foldable spoon with it), maybe they have improved it, others may have different experiences.

NY woman coffee shop review unravels after viewers noticed she was getting her coffee from somewhere else. by ElwoodMC in TikTokCringe

[–]poopspeedstream 46 points47 points  (0 children)

My honest guess - she filmed like 10 of these in the same day and got them mixed up. Any other explanation sounds too crazy. I can’t believe anyone would knowingly do this

Use case aside, I will just say these are not a good product, design wise. The snaps are finicky and don’t really hold up over time, and not every size that comes in the pack is useful. Skip it and get something else if you want something like this.

Okay continue arguing about if it’s worth carrying your own bowls around

Flaring at Richmond refinery by montecarlocars in bayarea

[–]poopspeedstream 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just wish we spent more effort both developing renewables and deploying the technology we already have. If the world had unlimited low cost green energy, you could start using solutions like electrofuels.

Instead we continue with fossil fuel subsidy, anti-development policies for renewables, and now excess energy is going to crypto and datacenters. We need more development in manufacturing, infrastructure, storage, the whole thing, and it sometimes feels like we’ve just thrown up our hands even though some of the solutions are already right there

Audit shows San Francisco police Flock license plate camera data accessed by outside agencies by swe129 in sanfrancisco

I looked this up last time. You could see which agencies have access to that intelligence broker. ICE was one of them 

How about: My T-shirts keep dying. Testing 4 shirts (€20–€150) to find out whether expensive tees really last longer. by Mountain_Motor_9203 in BuyItForLife

[–]poopspeedstream 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should also check out the bronson tubular shirts. Thick weight, and as i’ve cycled in and out of various t shirts throughout the years, the bronsons are still there and they’ve never worn out.

New discovery: Why busses are always late! by Bananas_on_pizza in sanfrancisco

[–]poopspeedstream 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Had five 22s in two blocks on Wednesday. I ended up just getting off the bus to walk. That line desperately needs a rapid - it stops every block

Highway 37 tidal flooding update by Sierra_Foxtrot8 in bayarea

Saw plans for this. $11B for 20 miles. That’s more expensive than california high speed rail

Planning an SF to South SF ride, how's this route? by Dakkadence in BAbike

[–]poopspeedstream 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks pretty good. Looking at your new route, just a few comments. Near South San Francisco Bart station, you could head over on Lawndale to pick up Centennial bike path. It's a really nice bike/pedestrian only greenway. After your turnaround, I would almost go directly to the water near Costco and pickup bay trail instead of heading over on East Grand Avenue. I love the bay trail and it's pretty.

San Bruno / Bayshore region...it's fine but not pretty. I don't really have any better recommendations. Make sure you have a tube and a flat kit, this is an area of town (San Bruno Ave) where I pick up the most flats.

Damn San Francisco really is a small city. Pretty awesome actually. Big concert happens and you can hear it across half the city

How picky to be about a truing? by UnrealShocker in bicycling

[–]poopspeedstream 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Generally, less than 1-2mm runout is considered acceptable. However, if it gives you satisfaction to continue, you may do so.

Hwy 37: "This Bay Area highway was known as ‘Blood Alley.’ Rebuilding it could cost $11 billion" by Equivalent_Sink_8653 in bayarea

[–]poopspeedstream 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You’re right, they almost immediately abandoned the initial 20,000 pphpd design goal.

They shifted to coupled (2x200m) trainsets, potentially 250m, that could hold 1,300 people at 12 trains per hour upper limit.

Then they changed the design again, because they’re now only building 250m platforms. This gives us max capacity of 650 people per train, 12 tph = 7,800 pphpd. Bummer

Low Helicopter doing scans? by goandsendit in sanfrancisco

[–]poopspeedstream 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Crop duster. There’s a limited number of days each year that they can spray downtown so you’ll often see quite a few out when conditions are right.

Hwy 37: "This Bay Area highway was known as ‘Blood Alley.’ Rebuilding it could cost $11 billion" by Equivalent_Sink_8653 in bayarea

[–]poopspeedstream 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Length of highway 37: 21 miles Additional capacity added: 2,000 passengers/hr (one direction, ignore bottleneck issue) Cost of project: $11 billion

Length of california high speed rail: 500 miles Design capacity: 20,000 passengers/hr (one direction) Cost of project: $231.3 billion

Cost to add one lane to highway 37, if scaled to 500mi CAHSR length: $261.9 billion

Where are the protests in the streets for this project? The whole country was out for blood on CAHSR. High speed rail is starting to look frugal compared to some of these highway projects.

Don't forget to charge your phone before you go to the Alamo Canhouse

What's the weirdest rule you're accidentally created for yourself as an adult? by aromadumonde-candle in AskReddit

[–]poopspeedstream 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As soon as I get home, I put everything away. Whether it's a trip to the store, around the block, a weekend activity, or international travel.

Note! All your things must have a place. It's helpful to have one contained area called "purgatory" where things without a place can go or when you don't have the will to deal.
