  • I think I remember hearing methanol got most of its bad rep (over IPA) because it was commonly produced with the ethanol when moonshine was made by inexperienced people. During prohibition, people would go to these inexperienced distillers because of the low cost (or even try doing it themselves) and get sick.

    It is also used to “denature” (make unfit for consumption) ethanol for industrial use to be exempt from alcohol taxes. Bittering agents are more common now though, especially when the product is consumer facing and the residue left by the agent isn’t important.














  • A THAAD still could potentially be used for offense even though they don’t use any warheads.

    A better argument could be early warning systems, or even their space division where they may have NASA or ESA contracts. Products closer to scientific research, like the Osiris, crew capsules, or the lunar rover they are supposedly teamed up with GM to design.





  • It looks like it’s primarily aesthetic.

    A few notes though… With the faucet and valve so close to the open side, the shower curtain could inconvenience adjusting the temperature or catch onto the handle if not paid attention to. If the shower head is also offset that much (not sure by the pic but a couple of easy fixes are available) it could make it more difficult to shower especially with having to stand in a tub.
