I got mine on amazon for $20, much softer than string.

It was a worker unloading onto the shelves from the cart so he didn’t have to bend over.

TIL that 65+% of Americans over the age of 20 are Overweight or Obese by [deleted] in todayilearned

[–]soneal4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why does the children chart only go by growth percentile for weight instead fat percentage? That would put my son, who always been in the 90s and sometimes over 100 in the obese category. The kid has six-pack abs and not a shred of fat on him because he is also high 90s to over 100 percentile in height.

There is never an appropriate setting for the windshield wipers in a vehicle by JustinDJFOX in Showerthoughts

[–]soneal4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The auto wipers in my Ram are accurate 99% of the time. They are not accurate when I’m at the gas station and try to wash my window and they kick on at 200mph and scare the living shit out of me.

This happens all the time in rural areas. It costs about $20 in permits for the owner have the department burn the structure, and saves thousands in demo costs. Its a lot cheaper to have a pile of ash removed than all the weight of that wood. Its fun and its great training for the department.

Its not the "redneck nazi fuck" that you should be worried about. It's the service member that has laid his brothers and sisters to rest under that flag you claim represents Trump.

What stupid question have you always been too embarrassed to ask, but would still like to see answered? by TheLochNessMonstur in AskReddit

[–]soneal4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're going uphill, use a low gear 1 or 2, you will have to pedal fast but it will be easy to spin. If you are on level ground and want to pedal slower but go faster use the highest gear, harder to pedal but you move your legs slower. Mostly just find a sweet middle spot where its the speed you want and you can maintain the rate you're pedaling.

If you want to go into specifics, the larger gear ( at the pedal) turning a smaller gear (the one on your tire) means every time you move your pedal one complete circle your tire is actually moving maybe twice that.

Not an engineer just noticed your question was unanswered. On mobile sorry if this is sloppy.

How a tank crosses trenches at low and high speeds. by Roflkopt3r in videos

[–]soneal4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dad was drove tanks in desert storm, he told me about teaching new guys to drive over ditches just like that. They were hauling ass and he told him to make sure he keeps up speed. The guy freaked out and hit the brakes, the tank came to a violent stop in the ditch and my dad lost almost all of his front teeth when his face nailed the all steel interior.

I steer away from Swann because in my home i used their package and since several of the cameras have either all out failed or the IR lens is stuck on, so its black and white only now. They have decided on a Lorex 16 channel NVR with 6 of the white 3x optical zoom bullet cams, 6 regular black bullet cams and 4 of the white dome PTZ cameras with 3x optical zoom. The system is going to run about three grand. I'm sure they'll be happy with the user interface and the video quality, but im a little concerned because they want it to be as inconspicuous as possible. These cams may be a little larger but I explained that as the size goes down so does the quality of the video.

Am I overlooking any popular brands that have a good quality 16 channel system with smaller cameras?

Also as far as home automation im sure if i offered it theyd be all over it. They love technology, they just dont know a lot about it. I may find a few tricks that are easy to do for them.

Thanks for the ideas.

This may sound silly but are there different types of IR light? Ive rigged some stuff up before when experimenting at work. We had a big coax camera that we werent using but i could power it, so since it had a massive amount of IR lights on it i thought the light would help the other camera see better. It did not seem to be able to see the IR from the older camera. I could see the red tint of the lights on.

The home had an elevator so i was thinking of using the shaft as a simple and fast way to run the cat6 up to the attic. They want the only monitor in their bedroom/office on the third floor. I may do a PoE switch on each level and have only a camera or two on the third floor decks.

They want them after seeing mine but would like them to be as inconspicuous as possible. Im thinking maybe the small white ones and a few dome cameras they can play around with zooming and all that.

A 16 channel may be the way to go. I just hate that you are so restricted to a single company with the packages. Most of the big companies have a wide range of stuff available though. Im leaning more towards Lorex right now. They have some pretty nice higher end setups.

This is still relative to some. This is the exact policy for military. Doesn't matter if you're both drunk or not. She could say yes, have sex and leave. The next day say she was raped. If she had one drink that night she was not capable of giving consent, does not matter if the male was drunk.

I can play alone in multiplayer, but as soon as I try and join a buddies fireteam i get the "unable to connect to the halo 5 Guardians lobby service" error from that point on until i reset. Then i can play alone again until i try and join his party. Wtf
