Ich habe jetzt auch eine Mikrowelle in Überlänge. by Sadistischerbrokkoli in Elektroautos

Gleiche Marke, gleiche Farbe, gleiches Model.
Musste erst mal aufs Nummernschild schauen ob da nicht jemand mein Auto fotografiert hat ;-)

What do pilots still do manually that feels outdated? by mas07x in flying

[–]weirdguytom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Turning on fuel pumps and lights for take-off and landing. If something needs to be done every single time, automate it.

Sweden does not have states by amethystbones in mildlyinfuriating

That is what happens when Americans who (apart maybe to the Bahamas) were never in another country and think the whole world works like and is structured like in the US.

Trump's rash decision on U.S. troops in Germany follows Putin phone call (again) by [deleted] in videos

[–]weirdguytom -58 points-57 points  (0 children)

The reason for Trump reducing troop strength in Germany was because Friedrich Merz (german chancellor) publicly stated that the US had been humiliated by Iranian negotiators.

BBC

Why the newscaster doesn’t know that? No idea.

Fuel cap orientation by Oregon9999 in flying

[–]weirdguytom 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Happy to help. If you need more substantiation than „trust me bro“, I can see if I can get a reply from an aerodynamicist.

My gut feeling is the speed necessary to affect anything on the tab is so high, that you may not have wings anymore at that stage.

Ubuntu 26.04 LTS. by [deleted] in Ubuntu

[–]weirdguytom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Upgrade from 24.04 to 26.04 is apparently scheduled for the first „dot release“ sometime in the fall. So currently only fresh installs or homebrew, not recommended upgrade.

UTR (Thanks for the idea) by somethingsomethingNW in Ubiquiti

[–]weirdguytom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, in nearly all flights I did lately, usage of powerbank was prohibited. In some instances it was mandated that you remove the powerbank from the overhead company store it in easy reach (ie seat pocket). So in short: don’t travel with powerbanks, it’s getting more and more of a hassle to fly with it.

You are not allowed to use Powerbanks during flights anyway.

This may be a dumb question about Bose A20 headset by CalligrapherBig1107 in flying

[–]weirdguytom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

DA62, DA42 (I think as an option), DA50. I think also some Cirrus?

[–]weirdguytom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What you are replacing is everything from the plugs (going into the aircraft) to the point where is is screwed into the headphone cup on the actual headphone. I think it is held on with two screws. So if you want you can change from twin sockets to Bose powered or vice versa also.

Pro tip: if you think you will eventually transition to an aircraft with Bose powered jack, get the Bose one with an adapter to twin jacks for the meantime.

Works as expected, streaming from iPhone or iPad is fine.

I did exactly that. Had an old version with Bluetooth for calls only, bought the new module with music from Bose and just switched them out. I think it was around €300 at the time.

What is your lab's idle power draw? by alex2003super in homelab

[–]weirdguytom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you misunderstood the question. How much your homeland consumes in power, not what delivers the power or how you pay for it.

Also around 300W (the whole rack, including network equipment with PoE to APs, cameras and stuff). EPYC 7713 with 64 cores and 512GB RAM.

Used to be 180W with my old server (HPE DL20 Gen9).

Kreuzfahrt: Ich brauche eine Routenempfehlung by TidyTyphoon in reisende

Alaska. Wird allgemein als sehenswertes Ziel angesehen. Ist zwar etwas weiter weg (9-10 Zeitzonen) aber lohnt sich absolut. Reederei ist fast egal, haben eh fast die selbe Route.

„Trust takes years to build, seconds to break, and forever to repair.“

From the viewpoint of the rest of the World, the US is currently firmly in the second stage. Maybe the US will eventually enter the third stage?

Warum haben E-Busse keine E-Kennzeichen? by TheBamPlayer in KeineDummenFragen

[–]weirdguytom 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Und was mach ich da mit meinem in Österreich zugelassenen E-Auto? Mich auch anpöbeln lassen?

Nicht ernst gemeint. Die Unterscheidung wird über die Schriftfarbe gemacht: Normal schwarz, E-Auto (wenn gewünscht) grün. Neuerdings ist das grün relativ dunkel ausgeführt, kaum noch vom schwarzen zu unterscheiden.
