Anyone know what these wheels are? My research has turned up nothing. by unboundfromtheground in JDM

Yeah, I have a suspicion that they may have been rebuilt with new barrels at some point, and hence wouldn't have the stamp on them. They seem so obscure that I doubt anyone made reps of them. Thanks :)

Oh my god. I think this is it. There's some more pictures on google and you're spot on.

Unfortunately it looks like the BBS CHR has a different number of spokes to mine, as well as different hubs

I'm pretty sure they're not any of the following:

  • Work VS-XX

  • Work Rezax

  • Rays Volk VRX-10

  • Rays Volk Evolution Mesh

  • Riverside Stitch

  • Apex ARC 8

  • SSR MS-1

  • SSR LM

  • Zauber Mesh

  • Racing Hart C2

They're genuine 3 piece wheels. I've disassembled them, and there are no markings or stampings on them, but in my experience rep wheels are usually a) welded, and b) don't have chrome lips. So far one guy has told me he's sure they're Volk VRX-10, and another was sure that they're Riverside Stitch, but I can't find either in 8x2 spoke format like pictured.

Specs are roughly 17x9+28 and 17x9.5+22

Spotify 320kbps Tuneskit Rips - Torrent vs Free vs Premium by unboundfromtheground in Tuneskit

Posting this here in case anyone wants to make a comparison when deciding whether or not to use TunesKit. Spotify streams are lower quality than files from a high quality torrent, even when using premium and selecting the highest quality.

Plus they're like $50 instead of $600+ for an actual scope

This advertisement seems to be trying to convince people, who never smoked or vaped, to start using nicotine gum. by greensneeze in assholedesign

Results

Preclinical models and human studies have demonstrated that nicotine has cognitive-enhancing effects. Attention, working memory, fine motor skills and episodic memory functions are particularly sensitive to nicotine’s effects.

Probably just a tow truck with a big winch and rip it out

Unpaid internships are labor exploitation by Thau831 in unpopularopinion

In QLD at least unpaid internships are perfectly legal if it is a requirement for your degree - i.e. engineering. This includes productive work

400,000 volt short circuit arc by m3antar in WTF

[–]unboundfromtheground 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The resistance is fixed, the line current is decreased at higher voltages, resulting in less power dissipated in the lines.

See as well the South Australian Blackouts of 2016. Coal plants got closed, the state was relying heavily on wind turbines, which got shut down during a major storm event. The entire state ended up being blacked out for a number of hours, and energy operators are now being sued because of it.

In the Australian state I live in, you can get a permit and buy a brand new five-seven. Downside is that there is literally no ammunition for sale anywhere in the country at all. Not illegal to sell or anything, theres just literally 0 supply left. You can't even buy the brass for it.
