@buperac Ouch

How does this happen?

@JSeimes I feel your pain #cartdriverhell

I’m gonna miss it like hell when these two old guys aren’t out here working with me anymore, but the GPS line circus and jumping around and doing weird shit today might give me an aneurysm…

A Brandt 16” 125 auger has to be the worst auger ever built definitely the worst purchase I have ever made

@hodgetwins @grok is this true?

@Martyupnorth_2 Marty can you correlate rejected ballots to riding that were close compared to ridings that were not. In other words were ballots rejected in the close ridings

This is one of the craziest visuals I've seen in a while. This is the percentage of rejected ballots for each riding from the 2025 Canadian federal election, sorted from west to east. I basically attempted to match the country's geography. The blue boxes are all the ridings in Quebec. It is statistically improbable that one province would have rejected ballots at a rate that is an order of magnitude above all the other 9 provinces. Either there is some cheating, or Quebecers are morons who don't know how to properly make a simple checkmark on a paper ballot.

@Rainmaker1973 Not a check valve this is a flow reduction mechanism. It is neither “check” or “valve”

A Tesla valve is a fixed-geometry passive check valve. It allows a fluid to flow preferentially in one direction, without any single moving part.

@OldHollowTree Parchment paper?

I’m sick of all our food touching plastic. I want to sell raw comb next year. Help me think about the best way to package a 4.5x4.5x square of raw honeycomb that doesn’t use plastic but is still affordable. Small cardboard cake boxes? Something else?

@Martyupnorth_2 Although it may seem like he went too far maybe it’s intentional. Maybe his way of getting us to grow a pair and stand up for the great country we once had. National pride is dead and if it takes him taunting us to turn that around I’ll play along.

The key to comedy is knowing when you've pushed a joke too far. This is not funny any more.

@gaurav_kochar Nope

With this yield and planted area, the durum wheat production will be 7.4 million tons, representing a strong recovery in production. The spring wheat yield will be 57 bushels per acre (3.83), which is 10 bushels per acre (0.673) more than last year.

After a 3,500-kilometer tour across the prairies of Canada, MarketsFarm forecasts an average durum yield of 44 bushels per acre (2.959 tons per hectare) for 2024/25, which is 18 bushels per acre (1.2) more than in 2023/24.

Question for my eastern Canada followers. Are there any forest fires in Ontario and Quebec? Because right now the MSM is making it sound like only Alberta and BC are burning infernos.

@RobSomerville1 @Cstein00794427 So you need the capital cost of another vehicle for those excursions which for me doesn’t make a lot of sense.

@RobSomerville1 @Cstein00794427 Fair enough. My assumptions based on what things look like today. Your assumptions are based on summer conditions. Don’t get me wrong electric vehicle technology is great and will get better. Currently for me it doesn’t work on a -30 Jan day because I can’t get to town and back…

The first week with the new Ford all electric truck... Basically it is a Ford F150 (with all the bells and whistles) that is dirt cheap to drive. Very comfortable to drive. Incredible horsepower and torgue. Need to be careful about speeding. Equivalent mileage is 3-3.5 li/100kms

@JohnHurkot @RobSomerville1 @Cstein00794427 Guessing a truck battery is gonna cost more than a little commuter car

@vartyd @RobSomerville1 @Cstein00794427 How did you get an $80,000 battery price?

@RobSomerville1 @Cstein00794427 $80,000 battery and after 5 yrs it’s half used up the cost/yr for battery $8000/yr. At 30,000 km/yr that’s $0.27/km. At stated 3.5L/100km the electricity costs you roughly $0.05/km. Total operating cost is $0.32/km. My 6.2 gas at 10L/100 costs about 1/2 or $0.15/km

@Cstein00794427 Yes. I expect that will happen.

@clay_reinecke @Plantmore1 @Kotyjo What is the size cutoff because locomotives exempt

@vartyd @Plantmore1 @Kotyjo No chance

Pics taken off old combine forum. Looks heavy! On the front anyway. Needs an extra trailer axle.

Oh and forgot to mention sat outside for the first 50 years.

Hey Goodyear. This tire is 75 years old and hasn’t had air added to it since 1992. Maybe time to try out your original recipe again.

@KevinBooth68 Keln Solar drainback system. Solar and/or wind powered. No heater. No “Mess”. I also have the new Ritchies. So far like the Keln system better. -40C/-55C wind chill and his morning.

Gotta love Richie waterers ! -40 this morning!
