To be fair, it’s a Ship of Theseus - none of the current sub is from the 1960s:
The current Alvin is the same as the original vessel in name and general design only. All components of the vessel, including the frame and personnel sphere, have been replaced at least once.
Hopefully a healthy used market develops over the next few years as children grow out of their child-haulers. They seem awesome, but for people not lucky enough to live in a place where they truly enable owning fewer cars, the cost is still squarely in “luxury goods” territory. As it stands today, it’s hard to justify a $4000 bakfiets against a $250 trailer, especially when a removable trailer lets you keep using your bike as a regular bike too.
This was more interesting than I expected. Though they didn’t clarify why it costs $700,000, given the context I assume it’s customers on slower devices/connectivity leaving rather than something like bandwidth?
It’s similar to AC-DC. From a simplistic perspective, efficiency at idle will be 0% because the converter itself still uses some power, then efficiency increases with load since the converter overhead becomes less significant as the useful work increases. Googling “dc dc converter efficiency curve” gives plenty of results.
In Thomas Salanderer’s latest video his sponsor sells something that claims to fit your needs. I’d never heard of it and have no experience.
I think it’s fair to not be interested in hearing about kids, but the reality is that may mean you aren’t interested in their life any more (and thus you aren’t interested in having a relationship with the person they’re able to be now). It’s likely to hurt their feelings if they mourn their past life themselves, but that doesn’t mean hurt is avoidable here. It’s also possible they love their new life and will not be bothered by moving on from their relationship with you, at least for a few years.
I think MPX (Magic Studios / Magic Phoenix) will be offering one very soon, and their other kits are supposed to be pretty good. They’re including canbus for fewer wires, and Tap.
Do you need a full cube, or is the standard 250mm Z adequate and you just need the extra X and Y?
Burley kids trailers have a weight limit of 75lb (~34kg) for the single and 100lb (~45kg) for the double. Are used double trailers available there?
Are you asking about adding a fan, or moving one of your fans from non-PWM to PWM?
Keep in mind that most 3d printing materials creep a little, so if you aren’t removing and reinstalling the gate periodically, it may loosen. Make sure it stays snug!
Realistically, I usually stop if I see a car even if I have right of way, because I’m the one who gets hurt if they roll through. Modern cars’ A-pillars are thick and I know I’m hard to see. I only exercise my right when there aren’t cars near the intersection, or I made eye contact with the driver and they waved me through.
But why would a driver have to know I’d treat it as yield? If they arrive first, I have to stop—same as if it were a stop sign—and if I arrive first, they have to stop: same as if it were a stop sign.
The only difference a driver will see happens if I arrive first and don’t stop, and then they’ll either know the law and appreciate me getting out of the way faster, or not know the law and think I’m one of those aloof cyclists. But they still had to stop.
