Indeed.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
practice pushing the gas pedal just enough to hold the engine at 3000 RPM or so. Not making crazy racing noises, just a nice steady “the engine is running normal-fast-ish”
Depending on the type of car, this might usually be somewhere between 1500 and 2000 RPM, 3000 RPM are more typical for a sports car.

- Comment on Why don’t wireless connections (WiFi, Bluetooth, etc.) use anything between 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz? 3 months ago:
Indeed the regulator, e.g. the Bundesnetzagentur, will knock on your door and inspect your radio and wifi devices. That way, some years ago they’ve found a malefunctioning radio alarm clock in my area.

Some parts of the spectrum in between 2.4 and 5 GHz are used by the mobile communication standards LTE and 5G (also higher frequencies). GSM, DVB-T, and FM radio operate at lower frequencies.

- Comment on Do zinc tablets and toothpaste counteract each other in the mouth? 3 months ago:
Why are you taking zinc? I was under the impression that intaking zinc is a terrible idea and should be avoided at all cost.
Zinc is necessary for our body to make use of vitamine C. That’s why both are often combined in tablets.
The problem when welding brass or zinc coated metals ist the amount of zinc one is expoed to is uncontrollably high. Therefore one can get an zinc intoxication. Another point is that zinc oxide nano particles which are produced when welding are inhaled causing lung damage.

- Comment on What happens to all the used guns? 3 months ago:
I don’t think someone blew up a container, but as there are (illegal) hand grenades circulating in Sweden, maybe somebody deposited some in such a container. When it was emptied, all participants got into a hurry as they weren’t qualified for handling explosive devices.
Alternatively, they’ve thought beforehand and placed the sign knowing that some may also want to get rid of their grenades. But as they require extra care, it’s probably a bad idea to store them in a container in the foyer of the police station. - Comment on What happens to all the used guns? 3 months ago:
My gf once was at a police office in Sweden for filing a report. Near the entrance, there was a big solid metal container and the sign “no grenades” on it. It was to deposit guns without any questions asked.

- Comment on Im watching an episode of Mr. Rogers Neighborhood, filmed in black and white. In this scene a guest is showing glass making. What is going on with the film to make these black areas by the flame? 4 months ago:
I would suggest it’s the shadow the flame throws onto the coat of the glass maker, as they probably had a light source behind the camera while filming.
