Modern road isn't just asphalt and rock, there are layers of different rock and dirt packed down to provide a solid structure for it to sit on. Asphalt doesn't have bend strength, it's really just holding everything together.

To everyone who hates the concepts of landlords and rent, what counts as being a landlord? by Chewget in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

[-] Chewget@lemm.ee 15 points 5 months ago

Airbnb isn't ethical and definitely a landlord but worse than long-term rental landlords, unless it's also your home (so not all the time) or a guest house. Banning short term rentals lowers rent and decreases homelessness.

Frozen Russian money should be provided to Ukraine as a stop gap at the minimum, it should be provided regardless. While politicians drag their feet, this is an good solution as well as an easy sell to the public. Funding war, someone else's war can be a tough sell to taxpayers, but this is funding for their survival. Get it done. Now.

I've been trying to figure out the peak power demands and an uninterruptible power supply that can handle it. There doesn’t seem to be any documentation for this. It just needs to run long enough to power off safely. It's a Trotec speedy 360. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Edit 360 not 400 and it's an 80W laser

Solved!

This is like the anxiety that creates the sunk cost fallacy. It's gotta be right there just a bit more time. We've spent so much already it'll be there soon.
