Many people really don’t know how to solder properly, and a sad number of them get paid to do this.

I’ve been learning to solder for some small home projects and your description of how to do the process correctly and why, really helped with some conceptual issues I’ve been having.

Yeah, I’m calling shenanigans on that one. Soldered joints aren’t prone to failure due to vibrations. Every module in the car has hundreds or even thousands of them. *Unsecured* joints are prone to failure due to vibration, particularly badly created joints. Soldering isn’t that hard, but there is some skill and a bit…

So many words. So few photos. Is this AOL dial-up?

So DeJoy got something right with these new trucks; doesn’t erase his fuckery prior to the last election. He’s gotta go.

Max temp of a car fire is 950 C in the engine compartment, and 1000 C in the driver cab. No mention of large battery system, and it’s from 2018, so it’s unlikely the experiment was on an EV.

Thanks for some context.

Call me naive, but if we’re getting an “alien lands on Earth" TV show based on existing IP, I'm still holding out for Xenomorph And Mindy.

Everyone knows that the only way to fight a Xenomorph... is an Animorph.

The best bit is how his audition went down:

Would I watch Mike Milligan and the remaining Kitchen Brother hunting down Xenomorphs for some reason? Yes. Yes I would.

I shouldn’t be interested in this. If you asked me which franchise should die for good, it would be Alien. Honestly, they could throw out everything after Aliens and I would be happy. On top of that, while the last season of Fargo was great, Hawley really screwed up the seasons before that and I’m not sure if I’m…

But the problem is he is too fucking handsome for traditional romcom. He either has to play handsome doofus or handsome monster.

That scene and the scene where he slowly allows us to see just how terrified he is after JJL drops her bomb in prison.

Run the Double Dare obstacle course.

There was that scene where he’s walking forwards, the camera tracking him, while a slowed down version of ‘Toxic’ plays. It should be way too on the nose, but it works, partly because the look on Hamm’s face of pure rage is so scarily believable.

Make it 2019 again using science or magic.

Streamed Hamms, you say?

Are you talking about him being an asshat 35 years ago?  I can say from experience that he’s a pretty good guy nowadays.  I’m all for criticizing the AV Club, but unless I’m missing something, Jon Hamm is a good dude.

I like Pedro but how did this dude not get the Reed Richards gig?
