English ivy is a ground spreader, at least where I live. It won't grow on the ground if it gets a lot of sun, but ground shaded by trees will turn into a thick mat that is impossible to pull up. Some yards have it…
Toyota does make seals (Koyo), bearings (Koyo again), and forgings (Aisin). Dunno if they roll their own steel, but would be surprised if they don't.

I've sold lots, some of which were obviously chopped out of vehicles with a sawzall (vehicles that I legally owned, btw). They've always scanned my ID, took my thumb print, and mailed me the check after a couple of days.
I had a math professor who I'm pretty sure was borderline autistic. His son actually was autistic. While he wasn't the best math teacher I've ever had, he was very good. (Didn't help that I can't comprehend…

That was true 20 years ago. The question is how much do you ease up the brake on that specific wheel, and then how much do you reapply it? You need to know the coefficient of friction of the road to know this. Modern…
I was woken up by my neighbors Dodge Charger 11:00 last night. There's a special place in hell for these fuckers.
Or, like my wonderful neighbor, want to remove their muffler to show off how awesome they are. More seriously, a successful electric car needs a chassis that's been engineered to be an electric car. You can convert a…
Visually? Really? Didn't know that. I only own and work on old vehicles, and those all have a float with a magnet that triggers a reed switch.

I have a family friend that recently had 2 strokes. The doctors are confused because he has none of the risk factors for a stroke. Really, he pretty closely follows this: (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32143344).…
My grandparents bought a game camera at Costco, so they could see what animals were in their yard at night. I had to help them view the pictures on the SD card. It came with some app to view them, or you could just…
Perhaps. But that's how Starbucks works, by buying shitty beans and dark roasting them. It also makes it easier to have consistent coffee (consistently burnt, that is).
Two things, that are obvious to gamers but really confused me: Sony owns PlayStation. This is the Bungie that made Halo. Yes, Microsoft owned them at one point, but sold them 15 years ago.

Your examples aren't of this law being abused. This is the whole point of it. The writers know exactly what's going to happen.
