    Yes, if the engine idles okay then they are perfect.

    He doesn't stand a chance. It's two against one. Just ask @eman1200.

    Tankless water heaters

    That's odd, most showers use more water than a sink faucet. I very rarely shower at home, so I haven't been able to test it out yet. It is a Navien unit.

    Tankless water heaters

    I guess in theory you are saving on gas because you aren't constantly heating the unit, but for 6+ AMU's I doubt I'll ever get a return. The water heater's usage is only about five or six dollars a month. It must be pretty efficient though - the vent gasses are so cool that they use a plastic...

    What would you do?

    I was working as a staff engineer for a utility while I was going through the grad program at the university. When I had a class during the day, I would take the company car, complete with logo and lightbar, park it on the side of the street close to the classroom, set the cones out, do my class...

    french fries (N/A, for potato's sake)

    I'm pretty much at conflict with myself over this. I don't eat fries. I would opt for jalapeno poppers or mozzarella sticks if they are an option. If I were to eat potatoes, my first choice would be baked. If I were to eat fries, thick cut, skin-on wedge fries would be my choice. Onion rings...

    Tankless water heaters

    Zero research. Did them on a project once but didn’t do that facet of the design. Had to replace the home water heater. The Other Person brokered the deal and this is how it came out

    Restaurant Feedback

    I used to be a fairly prolific Yelp reviewer. That is, up until the time I classified a gas station sandwich shop, as a gas station sandwich shop, which, is in fact exactly what it was. The owners of the gas station sandwich shop felt I was being insensitive to them over classifying them as a...

    Restaurant Feedback

    I’d copy/paste your exact post to wherever you want, google, yelp etc…. You point out some positives and recommend fixes to the negatives. You can usually pick out the bogus reviews from the non-bot ones.

    Semaglutide for weight loss

    Agree 100%. That is a little tough when the Other Person is a carb freak.

    What if... Modernizing GA

    The thing about it is all the things we need to make automobile engines perform well are nearly irrelevant in an aircraft engine. Things like variable valve timing, and even variable spark timing give little return. These engines turn slowly, spend 95% of their time at cruise RPM, and the...

    Semaglutide for weight loss

    You see a dirty animal. I see ribs and bacon. Hallmark movies would be a deal killer. Sounds too close to the beginning of a Hallmark movie.

    Semaglutide for weight loss

    I'm not "fat" per se, but I'm carrying about 20 pounds over. Lack of exercise isn't the issue. And I don't really eat that bad of a diet. I'm considering oral Semaglutide (which I can buy off the shelf) to help cut down the weight. Does anyone have any experience with it? Cautions? Does it work?

    Lets make Friday 'Joke Day'!

    A Scotsman brings a sheep in to the living room where his wife is seated and announces "this is the fat pig I scr*** when you aren't around." His wife looks confused and says "that's not a pig. That is a sheep." The Scotsman retorts "be quiet! I wasn't talking to you!"

    VFR flight plans. Do you file them?

    It's a good question. Outside of PPL training I don't think I've ever filed one. Technically, it probably would be a good idea when crossing the Sierras, but on the other hand, if I go down in the Desolation Wilderness, which is pretty much all vertical granite pinnacles, the landing probably...
