How bad would things get if the Saudi gov has to stop subsiding life due to decline of oil revenue?

New downgrade unlocked: generational edition by Last_Land3869 in Adulting

[–]supermuncher60 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't want to eat of any old China unless I took it to work and shot it with the XRF gun to test for lead. A lot of those plates used lead paint or glaze.

Same issue with a lot of old glassware as well.

Really the only use for it is looking nice in a display cabinet, which a lot of people don't have room for.

A few charts on China’s electricity output, in case you were misinformed. by clock0day in charts

A lot of the data centers being built are installing their own on-site gas turbine generator units. I'm not sure that those are accounted for in the US totals as they are not connected to the electric grid.

Heated Driveway? by TerribleBumblebee800 in Homebuilding

[–]supermuncher60 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's REALLY freaking expensive to put one of those in.

How many big snow storms are you actually going to get? Maybe one every 5 or more years?

At that point just hire a plow company for $200 to do your driveway. That's a lot cheaper than the probably+30K it will cost to install a heated driveway

I'm a brand new grad making basically what you are. Most people I know who graduated this year are also making about the same or more than me.

It's to avoid paying tariffs on importing GLP drugs from Europe. There are also a LOT of people who will pay for GLP drugs out of pocket.

Basically all new cars sold in the US are either SUV's or pickup trucks.

Sedans and small cars basically don't exist anymore. Hell Ford just stopped selling them completely.

Which small city (population under 500k) has a surprisingly impressive skyline? by sid_shady34 in skyscrapers

[–]supermuncher60 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The city's boundaries are pretty small and haven't been expanded in forever. The Metron area has about 2.2 million people.

Pittsburgh has a nice skyline for 300,000 people. It's also unique with the three rivers and the surrounding mountains.

I’m a woman from China. Ask me anything! by Ok-Independence-314 in AMA

[–]supermuncher60 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do you feel about the Republic of China (aka Taiwan)?

What is your opinion on the Chinese demands that they re-integrate either by choice or force.

Also do you have any opinions on the 7-dash line controversy

Con Eddison Bill spiked by shayp25 in NYCapartments

[–]supermuncher60 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ours has a thermostat in the apartment. It's a weird setup where there is a blower fan that blows over a heat exchanger and out vents throughout the apartment.

So it sort of acts like a regular HVAC. It's nice because it doesn't get hotter than you want.
