To accelerate a vehicle we need to put kinetic energy into it and Power is the measure of how fast we can do that.

From a technical capability standpoint, torque is a useless measure. With a motor of a given power you can always gear it up or down to whatever torque you need (assuming a lossless transmission system).

If we take two identical trucks with 10k lb trailers on them and one’s a 800ft-lb diesel and one’s a 300ft-lb gas, both with 400hp, they sould realisticly accelerate and climb a hill at the same rate. The diference is the gas engine will be screaming at 6/7/8000 rpm and guzzling gas. (This also assumes no other factors like heat cone into play, the gas may not be able to maintain as much power due to cooling system designs or other factors).

Torquey-er engines also tend to feel better from a driveability standpoint but that’s not representative of capability.

10 minute drive (where I live) is typically 6-10 miles. Average walking speed is 3mph so you’re talking over 2hrs. I had to do it once on a tractor and it sucked, and that was doing 10-14mph.

Yeah they bought some food company

Occasional exposure isn’t going to do much. Some people even use kerosene (diesel) can be used to wash some things off your hands. But you want to avoid it when possible.

Another reason I hate the EPA “safety” gas can nozzles. Because I’ve never felt more safe than when I’m covered in gasoline.

I, and most people I know, were taugh to shoot around 5 as well as being taught firearms safety around then. Also they’re typically going to eat the squirrels so it’s not just for the heck of it, but sometimes they do just need culling anyway if they’re tearing stuff up.

🤷‍♀️ I don’t get how it’s that crazy. I’m not into tree rat but some people like it.

You don’t just let them keep it all the time. You keep it locked up except for when they ask to see it. If you live in the absolute middle of nowhere on a large property then occasionally they may be able to go hunt squirrels/rabbits etc by themselves or target shoot at a home range but that depends on the kid.

I grew up with plenty of people who had “their own” guns at young ages but they didn’t just keep it all the time. Also legally it’s their parents just with the understanding that once they’re old enough it’s actually theirs.

Same

You are if dad says you are. Totally legal if your parents are with in my state.

Na, I know of elements that intensify way harder.

Yep. The title should get at least a very rough idea of what you’re looking for.

It’s asklemmy so we already know you’re asking a question. So you can typically get away with just doing like an email subject level of description.

“US to Canada buy and reship services?”

“Options for Canadians to get items sold in US?”

“How can a Canadian get something from the US that isn’t sold online?”

All of these would work and attract people who might know or have dealt with similar issues, as well as those who dealt with totally different issues that may share the solution, getting you better answers to your question instead of the shotgun approach and hoping the right people are curious enough to click on your post.

Photovoltaic doesn’t require water. What are you talking about?

I also remembered it’s often written in that format on clearance height signs and such so here’s an “In the wild” example.

Yeah I know plenty of chenese stuff ignores it. I forget where it’s said but countertop appliances are supposed to be 3’ cords and others are supposed to have 6’ cords. And then in houses you’re supposed to have plugs at those distances so people usually shouldn’t need extension cords.

3 feet.

’ is feet

" Is inches

Example: someone who is 5 foot 9 inches tall can write their height as 5’9"

Same. Also, countertop appliances should always have at least a 3’ cord. I believe that’s part of electrical code.

There was even a court case where they acknowledged that nobody reads those IIRC.

And get more surface area to the air than you could with straight air cooling.

And control the temperature more acurately if desired through a thermostat.

My grandpa has a Vanagon but it’s in kinda rough shape.

Body is pretty good but the interior is pretty much gone and it has electrical grimlins so it either starts and drives perfectly or just screams at you doesn’t even attempt to start.

Super cool vehicle though.

What was the original sign?

I’d argue they are giving him shit. She might be the punch line but he’s the butt of the joke.
