Costco on Mondays

작성일: 2024년 12월 30일 글쓴이: 광오

 

First, I hope you go to Costco on a quiet Monday when there are no people. This is a great tip I learned while hanging out at Costco.

Since Costco usually ends its sales on Sundays, if you go on Monday, there are many new discount items and it’s also fun to look at.

 

 

Second Costco offers refunds at any time if you are not satisfied with a product you purchased a few years ago Even some food products can be refunded in an opened state.

 

 

Third Even if you don’t have a membership, you can buy at Costco at any time as long as you have a Costco gift certificate.

 

 

Fourth Don’t worry if you left your Costco membership card at home, you can still shop using the digital membership card in the Costco app.

When you shop, you may find some really great discount items hidden in the back corners, so don’t just buy what you see, but look around every nook and cranny.

(Kirkland Signature products are famous for their high quality and value for money, so please remember.)

Electric vehicle fire risk

작성일: 2024년 12월 27일 글쓴이: 광오

 

It would be good to think that tall buildings are dangerous in the event of an electric vehicle fire, but this Cheongna apartment fire has proven that After the fire,

many households were unable to evacuate to the front door because the electronic apartment stairwell windows were useless due to a power outage, so they had to evacuate using the 119 ladder truck

 

 

If we apply this to Lotte Tower, there are no windows at all on the 123rd floor, and to get out of the building from inside the house,

you have to change elevators 3 times, and it is 100% ventilated by electronic air conditioners. Fortunately, the residents of Cheongna Apartment were evacuated using fire ladders,

but Lotte Tower, Busan LCT, and Yeouido Park One are tall, so you cannot evacuate using fire ladders.

 

 

Above all, the most concerning thing is that there are 124 electric vehicle chargers on the 2nd to 4th basement floors,

but in the recent Cheongna fire, 1,400 vehicles were burned by a single parked vehicle, and the parking lot temperature rose to 1,500 degrees.

For reference, the melting point of iron is 1,538 degrees, and most apartments built since the mid-2000s use underground parking lots,

and there are many places where outside parking is not allowed at all. So, some apartments are banning electric vehicles from entering underground parking lots.

 

 

Most electric vehicles have lithium-ion batteries like this, but they are small and stacked on the bottom of the vehicle.

If you look at the impact test, if you hit it with a hammer a few times, it will burst with smoke, and if you look at the lithium-ion separator puncture strength test,

it will burst if a hole is made. They say the car is designed to prevent impacts so it won’t explode, but the batteries are packed tightly right under the passenger seat,

and if even one cell explodes, it’s a structure that causes a chain reaction explosion, so if there’s an accident, you just have to pray that it doesn’t explode.

Tariff bombs are coming to the US

작성일: 2024년 12월 26일 글쓴이: 광오

 

After Trump was elected in 2016, there was a strong tone to protect the domestic manufacturing industry. At that time,

LG and Samsung Electronics’ washing machines were taking over the US market

 

 

Whirlpool protested to the US government to impose a 50% tariff on Samsung LG washing machines for 3 years. At that time,

the Korean government and Korean companies protested, but the US ITC International Trade Commission instructed that the 50%

tariff was a bit much and instead agreed to a quota system of 1.2 million units per year.

 

 

When the safeguard emergency import restriction measure was announced on February 7,

2018, exports immediately decreased by 45% compared to the same period last year. At that time, Samsung and LG held out by operating their US factories,

and the Korean government also started a WTO lawsuit. At that time, Samsung had 1,000 people, LG 600 people,

Whirlpool 200 people, and 1,800 jobs were created, and the US is said to have seen an annual economic effect of 100 billion won.

 

 

But then, a year later, the price of washing machines was falling every year in the US market,

but due to the tariffs, import prices went up, and the production costs of US manufacturers also went up, so the cost passed on to consumers was more than $2 trillion,

which is equivalent to $815,000 per job. Not only did the prices of Samsung and LG washing machines go up,

but the prices of washing machines produced by companies in the US also went up, so the prices of dryers, which are not subject to tariffs, also went up.

Consumers started buying less washing machines, but Whirlpool held back so much and couldn’t beat Samsung and LG.

Manufacturing jobs were created in the US, but in the end, only consumers were harmed by the increased prices…

It seems like the same thing will happen again this time…. How should we prepare for it? !!??

Nowadays, at car centers…

작성일: 2024년 12월 24일 글쓴이: 광오

 

Why do auto centers these days only want to replace the entire part? My car’s electronic parking switch hasn’t been working for a while.

I went to an auto center and told them the symptoms. The mechanic tried changing the OBD and pressing the switch a few times and said,

“This seems to be a PB module failure, but it’ll probably cost about 500,000 won to replace it.

“ I said, “Is there a possibility that the switch is defective? When I park with the auto hold on, I hear a motor-like noise. If that’s true, I think the switch is defective.”Auto hold

 

 

The mechanic listened to me, sat in the car, pressed the button several times,

parked, and said that the sound was not from the motor, but from the other side. He said that the EPB module was broken.

I was worried, so I left the service center and stopped by a nearby auto parts store to buy a switch.

I thought that I would lose money before spending a lot of money, so I decided to try replacing the switch myself.

When I arrived at the parking lot, I searched the Internet to find out how to replace the switch, and after replacing the switch in 20 minutes,

I tested it and it worked normally. ㅡㅡ::

 

 

These days, even if you listen to the internet or stories around you,

it seems that repair shops, unlike in the past, do not find the cause when something is wrong,

but rather just replace the suspicious part. Furthermore, there are many cases where the cause cannot be found without an OBD.

I think that the repair industry needs a change,

whether it is because cars have a lot of electronic equipment these days or because the skills of mechanics are declining and they have no will. What do you think?

A phenomenon that appears as you get older!

작성일: 2024년 12월 23일 글쓴이: 광오

 

A phenomenon that appears as you age An online study found that people stop listening to new music on average after the age of 33

 

 

According to the analysis of Spotify data by Kalia, an ajusshi who runs a music research site,

Kalia says that teenagers are fascinated by pop music, but as they pass their 20s, their interest gradually decreases,

and their music tastes mature in their 30s. However, women’s interest in pop music lasted from at least 13 years old to at most 49 years old,

while men’s interest rapidly decreased from their teens to their early 30s.

It is said that this is due to the lock-in effect, where people choose the original service or product even if it is better than the service

or product they were using before due to the investment cost or inconvenience.

 

 

So, in Kalia, there are two reasons why we listen to less new music as we get older.

1. When people get older and encounter unfamiliar music, they tend to dismiss it as music that only teenagers listen to.

2. People tend to look for music that they enjoyed when they were younger. Come to think of it,

I also stopped listening to songs at some point and only listen to familiar ones. What do you think?

Bubble tea that will kill you if you eat it

작성일: 2024년 12월 20일 글쓴이: 광오

 

A Chinese reporter drank tapioca pearl bubble tea at a bubble tea shop in Qingdao, China, and went to the hospital because his stomach hurt so much.

 

 

The CT scan done at the doctor’s recommendation showed that tapioca pearls were still there in the reporter’s stomach.

However, the doctor said that he didn’t know exactly what was left in the reporter’s stomach,

but that the adhesive was so strong that It was definitely not tapioca pearls and would never be digested unless he forced himself to vomit it out or opened his stomach to get it out.

 

 

After hearing this, the reporter immediately went to the bubble tea shop owner to question him, and the owner’s confession was truly legendary.

“To be honest, our shop makes bubble tea granules from used tires and shoe leather,

so if you drink bubble tea made from used tires, it doesn’t matter as long as you don’t get sick, right?”…

 

 

What’s shocking is that even if you eat bubble tea granules made from discarded tires or shoe leather, the chewing sensation is not much different,

and the color is similar, and even the taste is similar when pickled in brown sugar. Surely there aren’t people in our country who fool around with eating in a similar way?

Culture shock when you go to America!!

작성일: 2024년 12월 18일 글쓴이: 광오

 

These days, I often see people immigrating around me. Jejiin also immigrated to the US a few years ago!!

When he first immigrated, he had a hard time and spent a lot of time talking. I’ll tell you about some of the culture shocks that Koreans experience when they go to the US.

 

 

1. There is no concept of recycling at all All trash, including food waste, is thrown away in black plastic bags Do they not think about the Earth!!!?

We are doing a lot of recycling…

 

 

2. Disposable items are used a lot at home or at school They say that disposable plates and cups are used for everyday use at home,

but in fact, the use of disposable items is quite well-known. They use disposable plates for school meals, and this is so common…

They say that after eating everything on the disposable plates, they throw the leftover food in the trash can.

It seems that there are often scenes in movies where they search through trash cans to find food. In our country,

there is nothing to eat even if you search through trash cans….

 

 

3. Air conditioners are running at full blast at companies, schools, and homes.

They say there are a lot of kids who wear coats because it’s cold. They don’t think about electricity bills at all.

There’s no progressive tax system. They think the reason Americans worry about electricity bills is because there are not enough resources,

and the reason they separate their trash is because there aren’t enough places to throw it away.

Japanese late night bus!

작성일: 2024년 12월 17일 글쓴이: 광오

 

 

1100km late night bus in Japan Late night bus route between Fukuoka and Tokyo Hakata-go has a total travel

distance of 1100km and a travel time of 14 hours and 40 minutes. The high-speed rail travel time is 5 hours. This is more than 3 times longer.

Perhaps because of the distance, the business class and premium risk class fares are also high. It would be much cheaper to go by plane, so why did you take it??

 

 

First of all, there’s a room? There’s one. There’s also a bathroom.

Hakata-go’s competitors aren’t trains or airplanes, but hotels. Haha. It departs around 7 PM and arrives around 9 AM the next day.

So you can save on one day’s accommodation fee.

The idea is to just sleep instead of paying for accommodation. It looks really good. It’s a niche market that makes sense. Haha
