My first computer was the Altair 8800 with a 2Mhz 8080 CPU in it and maybe 16k ram (don't recall). I got a few more from an estate sale, and they had the 8" hard sectored floppy disks with some Basic operating system. I also had one of the original Shugart 5-1/4" floppies, very early serial...

Greensville is basically correct. For LEDs that simply turn on and run, they do not flicker under DC power. However, if anyone has a dimable LED, there may be "flickering", but at speeds humans do not detect. Also, any LED powered by AC may have a 60Hz (50Hz) flicker, again not visible to the...

Critical question is if there is noise without the tractor running but the lights are on. If noise, then LEDs are likely the culprit. If no noise, then likely the LEDs may be overloading a circuit or taxing the alternator more than "normal" loads when tractor is running. Some noise filter at the...

My earlier point about the 2x4 was that I could not push the fan back any farther in the old blower. I had to try and "pull" the drive shaft forward by pulling the auger/gearbox forward with a wedged 2x4 against the box, before the Gr8 shear bolt would fit. It was just a half of a 1/16" I think...

Answer is "maybe". The key would be if the gearbox drive shaft is the same or not. I've had both blowers, the one with the Gr8 shear bolt on the fan, and the newer one with the Gr5 shear bolt on the flange. The old blower had a similar problem as yours, the shaft/fan were not aligned any longer...

I used prescribed meds, JUBLIA to be specific. Toenail fungus is not just on the surface of the toenail, it lives below it, in the skin as well. Unless your remedy can penetrate down under the toenail itself, you won't wipe it out. I had a bad case back in 2003 (foreign tropical travel), and had...

Not quite the same. When one spins the stone on release, it will "curl" as it slows down and approaches the other end. Hence the name. The amount of curl can be as much as 4 to 6 feet!. The curl allows one to make a shot around a stone in front, with the proper skill. The reason the stone curls...

Hi Mike. The jacks work so far, no bending or other structural issues. Larger wheels would be better, especially wider wheels and at least 8" or 10" size or larger. Like I said in one of my recent replies, one has to watch out for "wave" creation when in float mode, as wheels in the back lift at...

Yup...

Daren, no fair editing after the fact... ;)

Tube to 5 is blocked at the end. 4 is blocked off at container #3

The way I see it, #3 will fill first since both of its outlets are blocked (4 and 5 will never see any water). #2 has blocked drain to 6, #7 has a hole in bottom so #2 will never stop draining. But question is incomplete, how much water is being added? Are the containers at elevations as...

CO2 produced during operation is almost zero. Most of the CO2 "footprint" values for windmills include the CO2 produced to make and install the windmills. Even then, the CO2 "footprint" of a windmill is so small compared to even solar, let alone fossil fuels. Ironically, the lowest CO2 footprint...

Fact check these "fake" posts. While this could be true if the windmill was placed where there was no wind. In normal wind generation locations, it pays back the energy costs in about 3 years: https://www.reuters.com/article/factcheck-windturbines-misleadingmeme-idUSL1N2R31IG

Happened to me a few years back. I think what happens is if a rock (or timber) gets carried along the leading edge of the "ear" of the fan, it hits the flange on the housing and bam, you get the ear bending out, and the flange damaged. The solution for me was to bend that flange outwards about...

Remember that there are different transfer panels, for different installations. Some transfer the neutral, some do not. It all usually depends if the neutral of the generator is isolated from chassis or not. Most home generators (automatic like Generac) have isolated neutral, so it uses existing...

A lot of the local computer shops that advertise data recovery use the same tools that you can get off the Internet. Tools like Recuva, Photorec, etc., which are free (for most of them). To do a serious data recovery of a crashed disk drive (or failed SSD), you have to go to those expensive data...

If you can get the drive running on another machine, try the utility "photorec". It is geared to specifically find photos, amongst other files, but mainly photos. It can scan sectors and find some photos without proper headers or directory entries. It is free...

On my BX25, the snowblower PTO shaft to the front has about 6", maybe more, of depth to it, allowing one to lock the back collar to the mid PTO drive and still leave a few inches on the splines on the front hitch driveshaft.

You might use that much fuel... If your truck averages 15l/100km, and at $1.50/L, that means you will have spent $12,000 on fuel by the time you reach 53,333km. Most truck owners will exceed that distance in 8 years, easily. Now, this does not count the cost of electricity to charge your EV...
