Maybe you could build a faraday cage around it or something. Wrap it in foil.
Critical_Insight@feddit.ukto Technology@lemmy.world•Burger King Giving Discounts If Facial Recognition Thinks You're HungoverEnglish106·2 years agoI prefer Burger King over most restaurants.
I’m probably going to order a burger anyways so I don’t see the need to pay extra for a fancy one that I need a knife and fork to eat when I can get just as tasty burger from BK.
Critical_Insight@feddit.ukto Technology@lemmy.ml•The Mighty Cybertruck Keeps Getting Stuck in the Snow4·2 years agoWeight alone doesn’t help. It matters where the weight is. On a rear wheel drive vehicle it absolutely does help with traction and handling if you add more weight on the rear axle. People have been hauling sandbags on their truck beds/trunks in the winter for ages for a good reason.
Critical_Insight@feddit.ukto Technology@lemmy.ml•The Mighty Cybertruck Keeps Getting Stuck in the Snow5·2 years agoThey do but the tires are specifically made for Cybertruck and the hubcaps lock in with the tire. If you buy a different set of tires they fit the wheels just fine but the hubcaps no longer do. It just affect aesthetics and probably aerodynamics.
Critical_Insight@feddit.ukto Technology@lemmy.ml•The Mighty Cybertruck Keeps Getting Stuck in the Snow1·2 years agoHuh… That’s interesting. My Nissan Navara (Frontier) weights 4400lbs despite being half the size of an F-150.
Critical_Insight@feddit.ukto Technology@lemmy.ml•The Mighty Cybertruck Keeps Getting Stuck in the Snow6·2 years agoIf you’re getting a separate set of winter tires you’re going to need another set of wheels anyway. I mean you could have them switched to the same wheels and be rebalanced twice a year but I don’t know anyone who does that. Here everyone simply just has two sets of wheels.
For hiking and camping gear: Savotta
If you’re not from Finland you’ve probably never heard of them but I’m yet to buy one product from them I’m not satisfied with. They make gear for the Finnish defence forces aswell.
Shoutout to Knipex aswell, especially the Cobra pliers. Costs an arm and a leg but you probably don’t ever need to buy another pair.

Critical_Insight@feddit.ukto Technology@lemmy.world•Evidence that we have been living in an increasingly risk-averse cultureEnglish0·2 years agoAn asteroid impact or super volcano eruption has the potential to kill every single human on earth and end the human race. That’s what I mean by existential threat. I feel like many people think of climate change as something that’s on the same scale but it really isn’t. Saying stuff like “climate change will ruin us all” just isn’t true. There are degrees of bad and while climate change definitely is up there in the bad end of the spectrum there’s still events that are orders of magnitude worse.
Critical_Insight@feddit.ukto Technology@lemmy.world•Evidence that we have been living in an increasingly risk-averse cultureEnglish0·2 years agoMy message literally starts by saying climate change is bad. It will be catastrophic. At no point have I claimed otherwise.
It will however not be civilization ending. It’s not an existential threat to humanity like an asteroid impact or super volcano eruption would be.
According to WHO: “Between 2030 and 2050, climate change is expected to cause approximately 250 000 additional deaths per year, from undernutrition, malaria, diarrhoea and heat stress alone.”
Also: “Even after accounting for adaptation, an additional 1.5 million people die per year from climate change by 2100 if past emissions trends continue.”
That’s about the same as what road accidents or diabetes kills every year.
Critical_Insight@feddit.ukto Technology@lemmy.world•Evidence that we have been living in an increasingly risk-averse cultureEnglish0·2 years agoClimate change is bad but it’s not an asteroid impact or super volcano eruption bad. It will not “ruin us all” and no credible scientist is claiming it would. Uneducated fear mongering like this is what causes extreme anxiety to people that don’t know any better.

It’s what I insulated my shed with so that I can let it get cold if need be and will not have moisture problems later.

Or I just have cheap taste buds. While to other people food is a pleasure to me it’s fuel.
