Depends on what you need.

I use my truck about the same as you. But get 13mpg towing, and 18 not.

1995 Ford 250 PSD.

It’s not comfortable, it’s not fast, it’s not fancy. But it’ll pull whatever I put behind it. Carry almost anything I will ever need to (definitely more than I want to physically unload), and it’s economical, and “future proof” in that I can modify in almost any way and still register without new diesel problems (high pressure pumps eating the entire system, def fluid and filter plugging, egr cooler plugging etc.)

Personally I’d say get an older diesel that is in ok shape that you can make what you need.

Gauge pressure not absolute

It’s not the right choice, but alcohol has been doing well for me for this.

Dad died last year due to what I feel is my fault…

Germany has a ton of the no speed limit signs. But in reality they are just no artificial speed restriction signs, meaning drive the limit of the road type you’re on.

Sounds like it’s the opposite of unsafe for the companies continued profits.

Second note, the metal pipe has to be continuously metal from at minimum where it enters the house, don’t trust that if you see a metal water pipe (or drain pipe) that it’s grounded.

id-gaf

Though I agree, it’s also interesting to see reactions when people don’t initially understand, then think through it and realize what it means.

I have started unironically saying idgaf in sentences. Often when “fuck this shit” would fit as well. But fts isn’t really easy to pronounce, where idgaf is pronounceable.

Home assistant, and frigate. Along with whatever type of smart lock you choose (even building one with esphome, diy version)

Exactly…

Essentially.

PLC, along with motion control.

Maintenance, transitioning into automation tech.

When you can’t afford to lose what you “invested”

The only liquid we’ve discovered with no surface tension is helium. And only at or below specific temperatures depending on the type of helium.

Very unlikely water would ever get to that state.

Those posts were installed perfectly parallel. Nice

The biggest problem with automation is, it can’t deal with things that aren’t expected or detected.

The current roadscape is too chaotic to be able to code in all the edge cases, as well as deal with the sensor issues.

I think the only way self driving vehicles will be able to operate (until the roadscape changes/evolves) is to have dedicated roads(probably toll roads initially), where only compatible vehicles will be allowed to utilize, and only when in autonomous mode.

There the environment can be controlled much tighter, and we can get through teething problems with the inter vehicle/roadscape communications.

These roads will expand as society adopts them, and there will be fewer manually driven roads.

Eventually all cars can communicate with all others, as well as a centralized road traffic controller. And almost all roads will be autonomous required.

Then the car crash scene in irobot can happen.

I read a lot of that about his postings on Twitter… and yet covfefe

To these fucks it’s only fascism when it’s against them. Tone fucking deaf

Sounds like a market niche, you could start it up, call it something like “macrosoft”. … then start making scripts that do the work for the user, don’t release the scripts because people pay for them. Let this go on for many years and you find yourself shoving “AI” down your users throats and screenshotting their desktop without explicit permission…
