Winter is upon us. Rubber and plastics get stiff and need to be handled carefully depending on weather.
Customers will break the air pumps basically daily by yanking/flinging the hoses around and then come in to bitch the free air pump isn’t working.
- Comment on Maybe this isn't proper shopping but $18.50 for four veggie burgers, buns, and danish seems like a lot 1 year ago:
Meanwhile at Aldi, veggie burgers $3, brioche buns $4, family sized Danish $4.
Yeah, it’s your shopping.
- Comment on What makes a bicycle so expensive? 1 year ago:
Because you forgot that Target, Big Lots, Dick’s, Amazon, Ave literally several hundred chains of sporting or general stores exist?
Definitely not anywhere close to being limited to Walmart.

It’s called a a skinny snake or instrument snake and comes up easily on Google when you include sizes. Lots of choices.

Just use a snake?
- Comment on What would it take to change an Internal Combustion Engine Car to an EV? 1 year ago:
You’d better learn to imagine better.
There’s an entire documentary on an 18 horsepower compressed air car that does 0-60 in under 4 seconds.

A miracle, an engineering degree, and a lot of money?
You’d be much better off looking into the hundreds (thousands?) of interesting tweaks? that have been done to vehicles as experiments to make them more efficient.
Adding all the latest innovation to an engine. Adding a full rear axel with an electric motor and a simple “push while driving” setup. Swapping the motor for a much smaller motor and storing unused horsepower with compressed air and welding tanks. A small turbine motor powering electric drive like a train…
There’s to many ways to make a vehicle massively efficient to even begin going over it here.
