Can I input single phase power to a VFD and have it output 3 phase if I work on the assumption that it'll be basically 50% good? I won't fry any diodes if I keep it running motors under half its rated power? Pretty sure. Srs q if you're knowing.

Previews are terrible. Trying way too hard. No desire to watch. Looks like written for simpletons.

I've been eating a lot of kale lately. I buy the salad bag pictured below. My question is my wife said that eating kale can increase your risk of kidney stones. I've had one before and never want to do it again. Do you have any tips for eating kale and keeping the risk of kidney stones as low as possible? I already drink lots of water.

Fuck man. I bet. Srs, look at your water hardness level. I was reading about reverse osmosis filtration and there or a link talked about the flip side, high mineralization of tap water and cock rocks. Seems like a pretty direct connect. It was strictly a research thing. I don't just spend all day reading about cocks, you understand.

Shameless on Showtime is hilarious and is very good.

I tried to get into Empire. Terrence Howard is one of my favorite actors.

too much like Glee I guess, the musical arrangements annoy the piss out of me.

.

For fans of "The Wire", this fellow -

, has uploaded all of "The Corner". It's the middle of David Simon's Baltimore trio (Homicide, The Corner, and The Wire). It's an interesting watch, between Homicide and this one, you can see the molding of what would become The Wire.

I don't think any of the streaming services carried it after HBO ran it. An edited version was played on BET for a bit, but it's sorta faded from memory for some folks.

I heard it was foxs way of getting their foot in the black community. Any truth to this? Are they trying to hard?

Leatherneck · « **Reply #18 on:** February 26, 2015, 02:32:57 PM »

Fox has been in the lack community since show like NY Undercover, Martin and Living Single. As for Empire, my wife and have been watching it and like it so far. Taraji Henson in lingerie makes any show better.

King Shizzo · « **Reply #19 on:** February 26, 2015, 02:55:32 PM »

White people being able to watch an all black TV series/movie died with Martin and Friday.

Now, it just seems pathetic.

It depend on the show. The Wire, Treme, etc.... were majority black and excellent. NY Undercover was pretty good, and I have a soft spot for Living Single.

It's when they shoehorn or soft peddle things in regards to race that things really go bad. Haven't seen Empire, but this thread has me curious.

Power on STARZ is better, way better.

Why do you guys have channels Starz Black and BET? Sometimes I feel that black people segregate themselves.

Smart People like Morgan Freeman do not want specific months, or specific channels "set aside" for them.

You would never hear the end of it, if the WET (not a porn channel, white entertainment t.v.) network ever came out.

Yes you can use a vfd as a phase converter. The output will be 3 phase 240 V
