“trainwreck” here is figurative and means some kind of potent personal disaster, you can find there retrospectives after things like multi-year long addiction or waking up with four open fractures in another country

this reads like one of these erowid posts from trainwreck category

Overvoltage during charging might do that (water electrolysis happens, meaning that there’s hydrogen inside)

The only winning move is not to play

Yes even in places where there’s no legal requirement because it is better to do that and because insurer can fuck you up if you don’t have correct tyres

The master craftsman will know where they can wing it and by how much, and this includes shitty tools

is that basque space program reference?

tvs were made before fr4 was a thing

that’s because the right thing is to switch to bike

TVs made to soviet design famously caught fire, this was before this all printed circuit board deal was perfected. they just used cardboard-like material for that, it was flammable, absorbed water over time, and there were too closely spaced traces with high voltage on them

People just don’t remember shit that broke down quickly

Maybe you can pull it off WW2 style by adding a couple % of aniline to unleaded gasoline

World will survive without one small time youtuber

WW365 with Copilot

That’s still mostly engineering achievement, what you need is scale (if this approach of building these extra tall turbines works)

drop DOIs

onsite solvent recycling is a thing, what can’t be recycled can be burned for energy. chlorinated solvents require extra energy input because they’re less flammable, and extra corrosion resistance is required in equipment used for that

DCM is also about the only good solvent left that is also resistant to lewis acids. I think that some people were pushing for benzotrifluoride as a replacement, but it just straight up doesn’t work as well where i tried it

Tbf before “do it in DCM” was “do it in CCL4” or “do it in benzene”, DCM just works without nuking operator’s liver

Lots of these new green solvents are also annoyingly polar so perhaps they can be used as replacements of other polar solvents but not anything else. I’m not using cyrene, fuck that

TFA is used because it works and is shelf-stable. Replacements like HCl in ether or ethyl acetate are bitch to make and when these can be bought, they have to be refrigerated all the way. Straight up not worth the effort on small scale

that’s illegal (unless you own a zoo basically)

BMP-1 also has fuel tanks in doors, not sure how they solved maintenance problem but it’s doable
