  • So you might be able to save both the jar and the weight here.

    Finish the pickles, empty the jar and clean it out so you just have the jar with the weight inside. Dry it out and put like a drop of vegetable oil around the weight.

    Put the whole jar in the freezer, get it super cold, more importantly get the air inside of it super cold.

    While it’s cold get the weight in the mouth of the jar and get it trying to come out, it should want to pull a vacuum. Once it does, just warm the jar and the air inside of it up to room temperature. The pressure from the air warming up should pop the weight right out, if not use a hair dryer.



  • For small cuts it’s fine, worst case you get a small scar where you wouldn’t have otherwise. The reason you want the pads over stuff like betadine is cost, application, and shelf life. Mostly cost.

    You aren’t trying to clean the wound itself as much with antiseptic, it’s more cleaning the surrounding skin under the bandage so you don’t get a colony of bacteria causing staph. It’s a numbers game, your body can handle some bacteria, so you get the number down to a manageable amount with a swab and bandage it to keep it clean while the body handles the rest.

    You should be cleaning the wound itself with just water, any antiseptic will cause funky healing when applied directly to broken skin.



  • A lot of the same issues VR has that relegates it to a very niche hobby, as well as VR itself becoming more of a thing.

    Basically, it’s twice the cost at a minimum. Want 3D movies? Well, that’s 2 cameras, double the storage, and all of the added workload in alignment, effects needing to be done for each eye… Basically double everything and add some to stitch them together.

    3D games? Same thing, but with calculations. You have to render each eye, plus the calculations to keep them aligned and in the right place.

    3D screens? You have to render each eye, so you have to either do glasses or funky screen tech like the 3DS to get that image to each eye at the right time, so the usual minimum is a screen that refreshes twice as fast plus a bit extra with the glasses to tie it all together.

    See the pattern? It’s twice as hard, twice as expensive, plus a little extra.

    Which begs the question:

    Is it twice as good, plus a little extra?







  • It will if it’s inside the engine, as in inside the crankcase where oil goes. Your fuel filter will block any sediment, and there isn’t a ton that dissolves in gas. If the only thing you have available is the gas tank you want to add an oxidizer. Bleach in a gas tank will fuck an engine up, as will a few non petroleum fuels. Diesel will stall a gas engine, sand and sugar do nothing, but bleach will internally rust every bit of iron in the fuel rail and inside the cylinders.






  • A car without a clutch could also just be a funny car. They don’t really have a clutch, it’s more a bullseye looking thing that drops in stages. Basically if you try to dump 3000+ horses into first gear metal tends to explode, so you dump multiple stages that just roast until you get speed. You still have gears, but it’s less of a clutch and more of a time delay friction welding system attached to the crankshaft.
