    Gold Bars/Ingots

    Well if I had an ingot, or could borrow one I'd be all set! Its hard to find people that have one, or would let me borrow one. (I think, I never asked!) Even if someone could measure their gold bar for me would be a start.

    Gold Bars/Ingots

    I'm looking for a way to cast ingots the size of those gold bars on TV. I only need to make 2, I think a sand cast would be ok but how to make it?

    Solid-state battery from US cell maker hits new milestone

    You might consider 'could' . I think battery fires are not inevitable. Technology will move forward as it did with gasoline.

    Does Premium Gasoline Have More Energy Than Regular?

    You mean they don't call it "Ethyl" anymore? I know....it was a tetraethyl lead thing. I think even regular had lead in it. But grandpa called premium ethyl for years after lead went out....

    Straight 30 or 15W40 for hard use air cooled small engine?

    I use the liquid kind, usually 5-40 just because I have it, I used to use 15-40 because it was free... Newer mower gets 5-30 and I want to add a cooler...it really runs hot. (Kaw FR691V) I'll go to a 0 or 5-40 when its worn in a bit.

    I use "classicshell" on an older laptop, I like it but its no longer developed. I would like to go to Linux but not sure how to save everything so I can do a clean install from scratch (or if I even need to) also not sure about drivers....

    Windows 10 Upgrade Guide

    One of the big pains with Win10 upgrade is Edge (browser) running in the background collecting cookies and opening no matter what. I would like it gone! I see it also used 4 instances running so if I delete one it reopens right away. I haven't found a way to stop it. The whole OS really is...

    Do you really need to change oil annually, if driven only 1000 miles a year?

    But....if you keep records and let a potential buyer of your car see that you run 5 yr. oil change intervals you might not get positive results? I'm with you guys on not wasting $ & oil, maybe I can use my used oil in my mower! That would eliminate having a 3rd oil spec in my shop....
