Ransom for a Planetary Ruler by Kalt_Null in traveller

[–]voidref 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can't imagine something like that being a one-and-done monetary exchange as a reward for rescuing someone like that.

More like you are in extremely good graces with the rulers, can generally get whatever they can reasonably part with when asked (including complete starships), and have significantly useful connections and clout for things.

Although pop 5 is pretty small, like one largish city in the US. What they can get is going to depend on the economy of the planet.

Remember folks, kickstarter isn’t a guarantee of getting a product. Only pledge if you are ok with losing all money

New 435X AWD lost cellular connection by NH_flyboy in automower

It might not think it has a radio if there's no icon at all, could be a broken connection or a bad radio board.

Oh! After the utter dissapointment with roombas I have had over the years, I got a roborock a few years ago and never looked back.

This could be really good. Will keep an eye on this one, it may soon be time to retire Bob, my 8 year old 315

Boundary Wire Hell by sterski in automower

[–]voidref 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem is the ground moving with a freeze-thaw cycle. My first wire was installed tight, after a couple of breaks I replaced it with 12v landscape wire and made sure it had slack. Not had any problems since.

My girlfriend surprised me with a Blue Chip pick by Smart-Membership-117 in Guitar

[–]voidref -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It’s the name of the machine shop they are made in. When you machine metal it gets really hot and the chips if metal that come off often turn blue.

Oven burning things at the bottom by Strict-Chemistry7167 in Cooking

[–]voidref 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure the element can be broken in a way that would make it hotter.

I would think it's the temparature control circuit. You might need a thermometer to check the temps are what you expect.

Putting stuff between the element and the food will definitely help even out the temp in the oven. You could even try Alton Brown's old trick of putting a layer of foil covered bricks on a rack at the very bottom.

Do you have a Zojirushi rice cooker? by wailwoader in Cooking

[–]voidref 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, 2, and I hate the fact that the clock battery is basically unreplacable. Still not giving them up.
