How long until US tariffs are tied to Russian sanctions?
- Comment on Is there any handbooks for warning lights on cars/machinery 4 days ago:
Like a “best practices” type thing? In the US, Federal Regulations cover lighting requirements on passenger car and commercial trucks. FMVSS 108. If your machinery is ever driven on the road they most likely have lights according to this regulation.
www.ecfr.gov/current/title-49/…/section-571.108
There should be a section near the top that covers “incorporated by reference”, where they list all the industry standards referenced. A lot of those are available on archive.org. That’s probably as close to a “best practices” as you’re going to find.
Search by images for FMVSS 108 and you’ll find various diagrams showing light location requirements.
NTEA publishes some information about lighting, but I don’t know if you have to be a member to get it.
If you’re talking about flashing beacons, that’s not covered federally, and each state usually just says what color the flashers can or can’t be (blue reserved for police, red for emergency vehicles, green for snow plows, etc.)
If you have a more specific question, I might be able to answer.

Based on what we know about the universe, isn’t this pretty obvious? I’d rather see estimates for how much water?

Android Auto will let you split-screen, it looks something like this. Carplay might be similar?
- Comment on JD Vance Tells Globalists To Their Faces To Stop Censoring People 2 weeks ago:
Why so many downvotes on this? This type of bullshit should be amplified and spread, so people can see for themselves the absolute crackerjacks running the country. It’s impossible for anyone with half a brain to see this and not be shocked by the duplicity.
- Comment on Is This How Reddit Ends? 4 weeks ago:
No, I’m describing removing the “context” from the search. Here, this part is relevant.
Remove the context and I lose that trust.
- Comment on Is This How Reddit Ends? 4 weeks ago:
This AI shit is stupid. I don’t trust anything I read on the internet, and don’t try solutions unless they come from a reputable source, or are verified in the comments. Remove the context and I lose that trust.

Not “people”, tech companies.
Not “donations”, buying influence.
- Comment on Samsung is the next company to try to popularize 3D displays (again) 1 month ago:
I loved playing Fallout New Vegas on my HP 3D monitor. But it rarely worked out of the box with new games, relying on the community to develop profiles for every game release. And eventually the glasses cracked and broke, with no way to get replacements.

- Comment on USA President term limits 3 months ago:
I think it’s technically written as 10 years. If a vice president replaced the president, he could serve 2 more terms as long as he only replaced the president for 2 years. If he served out more than 2 years, he could only be president for 1 additional term.

Not really a secret, it’s yet another military base. Probably used for enhanced interrogation™ during the Eternity War.
- Comment on Why is space 2 dimensional? 5 months ago:
The system starts out as a big cloud of debris orbiting a central point. Each particle is orbiting in its own way, there isn’t any organization. Since there is no organization, most of these particles are going to bump into each other. This changes the speed and direction of the particles, some of them will clump together and most of them ending up gathered at the center of gravity of the entire system. This eventually gets large enough to become your star.
As the remaining particles become clumped together into larger items they will begin exerting gravitational pull on other objects. One plane of orbit will become dominant, and the remaining clumps will gradually settle down into their orbits, in the same general plane, in the same direction. Those that don’t will have their orbital speed reduced enough that the object ends up gathered into the center.

The only reason Tom Petty was in the Wilburys was that George Harrison left his guitar in Petty’s studio, and had to go get it. He brought Petty back with him.
I’m going to say “What is Tom Petty’s studio?”

- Comment on Ceilings and joists 5 months ago:
You want to fill the area above that wall, just between the floor joists? I’m not sure the faced fiberglass is worth the trouble. Are you trying to mitigate noise? What’s that wall made out of, and how thick is it?
The welding blanket is a great idea. But, fiberglass, can you cut it without shedding fibers everywhere?
Avoid ANYTHING that will burn. You’ll violate your new code compliance. You can get fiberglass insulation panels with a foil backing. These can be cut to size with a utility knife. Some good tape should hold it in place.
Do a search for “basement fire barrier” and you’ll find other ideas.
