Re: Tell me about psi

At a guess, the risk factor is not very high at first (unless ya hit a pothole hard as I did in my Corolla in the first month and popped the tire). The problem with continuing to run hard is the wear over time. If the center is wearing more than it should, then at some point the portion of tire you'...

Re: Tell me about psi

The rougher ride is a result of the tire not being flat on the road surface. Higher pressure pushes the centre further down which may give more mileage, I suppose from less contact friction area. But the tradeoff is uneven tire wear and less safety. (Less tire surface area on the road means less gri...

Re: Elections 2025

Interesting. I briefly considered voting for myself (and my wife promised me her support) as a write-in for the Board of Education locally. Then I discovered that (at least here) you can't just "write-in" George Meade because the only eligible write-in candidates must register quite some time before...

Re: Home for Random Thoughts

I generally love my job and the people I work with. All of that is undercut by fucking horrible management. At this point I’m completely burnt out and am demotivated to do any work whatsoever I suggest you stop fucking horrible management. It must interfere with work performance and mess up the desks

Re: WWIII? Or just a little fuckery?

lib - I would not call FDR a liberal except by comparison to Hoover. You should read Hoo's speeches during the 30s - he was kind of OK with people starving because it was a correction to the economy. The true business of government was to govern and not fund infrastructure development - it was the j...

Re: He is turning the White House into a whorehouse

What are you going to do with all the hate when Trump is dead and gone? You know it can’t be much longer, even though I think he will last longer than four years. I for one put hatred on the back-burner in the expectation that he will soon up and die. But I will detest his memory until I die becaus...

Mixed message from a Trump future pardon recipient

A federal judge in Tampa has ordered the arrest of a former Green Beret accused of plotting to invade Venezuela in 2020 after he failed to show up to court for a hearing on whether he should be taken back into custody for violating the conditions of his pre-trial release. Jordan Goudreau, 49, was a...

Dim Kardashian in remake of 'Moonstruck'

What's the Buzz? Things one should not Cher: US space agency Nasa has rejected reality star Kim Kardashian's claim that the 1969 space mission to land the first man on the Moon was faked. "Yes, we've been to the Moon before... 6 times!" Nasa acting administrator Sean Duffy wrote on social media. “Th...

Re: What's Going On Here?....

Surely you agree that what Lincoln did was right and necessary for the preservation of the Union, in a time when there was an actual enemy within? Specifically, as to Merryman, no I do not agree. Once Congress authorized his imposition on grounds of national emergency, that's a different matter. Li...
