  Yay! More space junk. Every country/broadband provider should get it’s own constellation of satellites!

  Opposite in the US. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a base consumer model with internal heating.

  If you look up the hardware for installing a washing machine https://www.lowes.com/search?searchTerm=washing+machine+outlet+box they all have spigots for hot and cold water.

  Fair amount of experience in both. And it works surprisingly well. For a time. I’ve had fully PLA printed designs like the fgc-9 and glock frames like the invader above hold up to hundreds of rounds, only to spontaneously shatter in the safe 2 years later. PLA is an amazing material, in ideal conditions.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Squirted Glock comp that doesn't suck⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Mostly all 3D2A (3d printing, 2nd amendment) acronyms.

  Squirted = 3d printed Compensator = a barrel accessory intended to reduce recoil PLA - Type of 3d printing material. Invader v2 - The name of the design of a certain printable firearm frame

  For anyone windering. Its called a “wrist map pouch”.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨No Man's Sky 10th anniversary Cosmos update is here, and that means orbital bases, space station ownership - and yes, you can finally fly to the sun⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I would wait until their next “event” that they have after every update. That will give you kind of a hand holdy “tutorial” to bring you up to speed with the core mechanics, along with a direction to go. Plus during these events you can find lots of other players with cheaty bases you can quickly farm to get all the materials/credits you need with minimal grinding.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Deleting posts⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  When you post something it gets sent out to every federated instance. When you delete something, it sends a deletion request to all federated instances. Other instances can process this request slowly (or not at all) so you end up with posts/comments that look deleted to you but still show up on other instances.

  At least that is my understanding of how it works.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨An Airbus A320 recently lost all 3 hydraulic systems at the same time. They are supposed to be redundant. How come Airbus hasn't grounded the A320?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  “Now, should we initiate a recall? Take the number of vehicles in the field, A, multiply by the probable rate of failure, B, multiply by the average out-of-court settlement, C. A times B times C equals X. If X is less than the cost of a recall, we don’t do one.?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do I identify someone who has deleted their post?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  If I decide I want to remove something, or edit it, or whatever, that should favor me, not preservation of my past activities.

  Should, yes. But just FYI; Lemmy does not work that way. Deletion/edit requests are solely up to the instance to comply with.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do I identify someone who has deleted their post?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  For past deletions, probably no easy way.

  For future deletions, just spin up your own instance and ignore delete requests.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What would happen if you maxxed out your credit cards and line of credit then moved to some village in the phillipines?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  No, I’m not sure how it happened. I found some default judgements against me searching threw court records; but it wasn’t on my credit at that point. I did expect to be hit by a surprise garnishment or seized tax return. But they never came.

  I’m guessing I fell through the cracks during some data migration. I doubt you could pull that off today.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What would happen if you maxxed out your credit cards and line of credit then moved to some village in the phillipines?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I kinda did that in the early 00’s. Left the US and told creditors to kick rocks. They basically just wrote it all off. I came back 10ish years later and it was like it never happened. I went to get a loan for a motorcycle when I got back and they told me that since I didn’t have any credit history (wtf?) that it would be a slightly higher interest rate. Now some 15 years after that, I’m a model citizen, credit wise. I’ll save the next time for retirement.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why don't people wear underwear under the padded bike shorts?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes, underwear will help keep you from getting poop on your bike shorts. No, underwear will not keep ass sweat and smells out of your bike shorts for more than a couple minutes. So it depends on use case. As long as you are dingle berry free, an extra layer of fabric isn’t going to help much for smells.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"I don't answer questions"⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why don't people wear underwear under the padded bike shorts?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Ignoring possible medical conditions; that seems like a fairly easy problem to solve.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is the name for a "mechanical wire" I saw in a video? One end of the wire can be plugged into different gears for different gearing ratios. Like a flexible drill extension. More info below⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s just a specialized version of wire rope. Similar to what they use in flexible ratchet extensions.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are these brownish speckles on my polyester shirt? How to get it off?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I work in a hot and humid shop. The best way I’ve found to get the smell out of my clothes is washing them in 55c water, 1/4-1/2 cup cleaning vinegar (depending on the size of load), and whatever the minimum mark on the detergent is. I’ll let them soak about 15min, let half the agitate cycle run, soak another 15min, then let the washer run as normal.

  Any clothes that don’t survive are just shit out of luck.
