    UPS Flight 2976 cockpit voice recording recreated from spectrogram.

    I watched the Scott Manley video about it. He was the one that speculated that it was possible. I don't remember if someone did the actual voice audio or if it was the NTSB test audio they figured out it could be done on.

    Person bought used truck that had new tires on it. They got new rims and tires and are selling the old ones. What is so confusing about that?

    New tool thread

    I have one of those tables at work. They are built sturdy. The price on Grainger didn't used to be too bad. I am betting it has gone up now.

    Deere S140 Oil

    Just make sure the oil is always topped off with whatever you want to use. You will not have an oil related failure for as long as you care to use the mower doing that.

    What is "Performance Plus" oil and whatever happened to STP?

    Teflon is bad for engines so that turned it into just another thick oil additive. I use it to coat prover balls when doing water draws so they slide better.

    What are you watching on tv right now?

    Two of my sons and I watched it. It is cool and kinda boring at the same time since everything is automated. Wish they had some more views from the actual rocket.

    Upper Cylinder Lubricant (UCL) mitigate corrosion?

    Most small engines are aluminum bore. Some have liners. Would be more beneficial to just make sure both valves are closed if it sets for a while. Throwing it under marginal cover and changing the oil every now and then will make it last longer than you care to use it so anything more is overkill.

    I'm going to burn wood for heat! (What do you say?) 🪓🪵🔥

    Wood heating is a commitment and not much of a money saver if you include your time. Hope you have close access to lots of wood.

    What a difference 30 years makes

    I have had both models at the same time. The size difference is ridiculous. The picture doesn't do it justice.

    Contaminated Fuel

    Could be millions of gallons ruined. 50,000 gallons is a small amount in this industry. The stuff that made it to the stations will probably be sold as transmix for pennies on the dollar. The stuff still in the terminal will be blended off most likely. They said it came from a terminal...

    Contaminated Fuel

    It takes a large amount of diesel to contaminate gas at a terminal to the point there is a problem at stations. Stupid thing is it was probably some valve that doesn't get moved very often and broke or was forgotten about. Or they knew it was broke and had a bandaid on it that didn't get put...

    List times when accountants / business managers overrode engineering and caused problems.

    I have seen a lot of parts in taxis or hot shot that should have been in a warehouse onsite. Lots of downtime waiting for a belt or a coupling while hundreds of thousands of dollars are lost.

    Toyota AUS style

    There is a reason domestic mini trucks are nowhere or idiotic. No one wants a old school Ranger or S10 and the chicken tax killed the rest. The people that buy new vehicles want a spacious luxury vehicle with 600HP so that is what is sold.
