I think the issue in this case is that the range of this specific car and battery doesn’t convey the impact of the battery innovation. If they gave an example of the range with that car and battery size using current battery tech to demonstrate the improvement, I think that would be more helpful.

Thank the fucking tax software lobbies for that. Assholes

Yeah clone hero is pretty sick. It can do drums too, and you can get it to work with a real electronic kit

You’re doing the gods’ work

I think there’s a lot of great ideas in here, but I’d start with the stuff that, when you need it, you need it now.

Something I didn’t see mentioned yet was a wrench to turn your water off at the line that goes into your house. If you’re on a well, then whatever tools you’d need to turn that valve off. If you spring a bad leak you want to shut that off asap

A few other things that seem like good things to have BEFORE you need them

• Plunger and drain snake (Good to have both, sometime the plunger won’t cut it, but it’s much easier to use a plunger if that’s all you need)
• First aid kit
• Fire extinguisher
• Carbon monoxide/smoke detectors
• Spare keys, give them to people you trust or hide them really well so you don’t have to break in if you get locked out
• A big bucket for leaks, mopping, etc
• ladder
• Generator if you can afford it
• Emergency bag with food, water, flashlight, spare batteries, cheap phone, list of numbers, map, first aid kit, etc

Those are the kinds of things I’d look to buying first since anything else you can just go get when you need it.

Small pet peeve of mine, wd40 is NOT a lubricating oil, it’s a penetrating oil, and a cheap one at that.

Penetrating oil is what you use when things are stuck. It will dissolve whatever old oil or grease was in a joint, and flush it away, and it can be useful for rust removal as well, but it is NOT protective. Get some kind of protective oil like silicone, lithium grease, or balistol for lubrication and protection.

Can you remind me what this is from?
