Topic | Ford making their F-150s out of aluminum was a terrible idea. |
treewojima 09/16/19 10:07:06 AM #8 | pogo_rabid posted... Aluminum doesn't rust tho. That's a good point. Aluminum can oxidize and develop corrosion, but it's not like rust where it just eats away until you cut it out. Rust is also more of a localized issue, since you're only really gonna run into it if they salt the roads where you live, or if the vehicle was just left out in the elements for an extended period of time. |

You can't use it in a unibody vehicle though, it'll compromise structural integrity (except for non-structural panels like the hood). These trucks are body on frame, so they can get away with it. |

treewojima 09/16/19 9:50:23 AM #1 | Yes, it saves weight, but it also makes the vehicle difficult to repair and incredibly expensive to boot. Not too many body shops will work with aluminum outside of straight up panel replacement; if there's shaping or welding to be done you'll have to take it to a more specialized shop. Labor rates take a huge hike too - general body labor at my old shop was around $45/hr depending on what we negotiated with insurance, but I've seen aluminum rates as high as $110/hr! Plus it's just easier to deform and damage, so if you do get hit, it's more likely to crumple. Fuck you, Ford. |

treewojima 09/16/19 7:42:42 AM #3 | When I was a kid, we used to shoot those little paper wasps/stingers at cars while waiting at the bus stop. One time we actually hit the side bed panel of a truck, and the dude pulled over and got out and started yelling at us about throwing rocks. |

treewojima 09/13/19 4:01:26 PM #8 | VanananaHeyHey posted... I figure adults have body hair that distinguishes us from children and adolescents, so I might as roll with as much as someone's got. Pretty much, I don't care one way or the other. The girl I'm with now doesn't like her legs to get fuzzy but it doesn't bug me. I also remember way back when fresh out of high school I was fooling around with my sister's friend in my backseat and she was like "sorry I'm a bit fuzzy" with a full blown mega bush - given her strong personality I think it was a test lol |

Topic | Would learning code chronologically be beneficial? |
treewojima 09/13/19 12:40:23 PM #6 | Not really, unless you're a language buff or a fan of computer history. Languages like COBOL are tedious, and others like APL are downright frightening. Smalltalk is fun, but I can't really find a use for it. Even ancient languages that have stuck around like Lisp, C and Fortran have changed quite a bit since the early days, mostly in terms of quality of life if that makes sense (try programming in the original K&R style of C, you'll see what I mean). And then there's all the different assembly languages for all the different minicomputer architectures, or more business-oriented stuff like RPG and JPL for IBM mainframes... yeeeeah, have fun with that lol |
