  • Try understanding. The road was already designed to be safe at 80kph. They lower it down to 50kph because of folks such as the ones who brake at the green light because the count down timer for the walk signal hit zero. Or the ones who don’t know where the fuck they are going, panick miss their turn and slam on the fucking brakes in the middle of a 3 lane road instead of pulling a u-turn 100m up the road. Then they try the bulshit of traffic calming shit by retiming the lights so every light in 10km stretch will be red when you get to it. Fucking phenomenal way to prevent irritation.







  • Really, that hard to pull a plug when you’re done? This is a non-issue. The plug too far? Okay, get an extension cord.

    I know this maybe sounds like an easily solvable problem - just turn the power off when it’s done - but that’s just not how things roll in our house.

    Maybe try fixing your house where pulling a cord to keep toddlers safe takes priority over the inconvenience of pluging something back in.

    This is a load of baloney. If it was welded before, it can be welded again. You only need to heat the effected zone not the whole frame. Also put a sleeve over top and add more weld. Heat treat isn’t anything fancy. Get a temp gun and a propane torch. Get it to temp and let it cool slowly or quickly or both. depending on the spec you find.

    The only reason they cook the whole frame is because it’s easier from a manufacturing point of of view.




  • Yes I am dumb normie. Who has set up for doing things a certain way. I have my cnc plasma tables, my 3d printers and cnc mills. They are essential to my business. I need to be able to run the cad programs, communications and links. I have spent alot of hours already establishing this, learning how to do this. I don’t have time to re learn all this because I “should switch to linux” I don’t have time to learn new cad programs because the ones i use aren’t Linux friendly. Many of us normies just don’t have that spare time to go through the process. I just need something that I know will work.


  • I do heavy equipment/industrial/marine maintnace and fabrication work. The ability to overhead load things into the bed. Rather than being limited to what is on a pallet with a forklift. Being able have cargo that is longer than the bed of the truck and not have to drive with cab doors open. Being able to install a 5th wheel trailer to tow more than what the standard ball hitch allows. You shure aren’t going to make a tow truck out of a van. Bulk cargo? Just show up to quarry or dirt pit load a bucket full or 2 and of you go. Lots of reasons. These are just the basic examples. There’s lots more. From welding rigs to just being able to put a skid of drywall in with out hassle.
