Reply to ELI5: Why does farming equipment require such low horsepower compared to your average car? by thetravelingsong
You can do a lot with less horsepower if your gearing is low enough.
But
All the gearing in the world won’t make you go faster once air resistance eats up all your power once you start moving over X mph (X being whatever speed all your engine’s power is used up just fighting the air resistance).

Reply to comment by Kodiak01 in Is Greeks making pizza just a CT thing? by Ancient_Belt_1291
We moved to western MA in Oct, and we keep encountering pizza from nearby pizza places that have fresh garlic in them.
Is this part of the Greek pizza thing (thin slices or chunks of raw garlic under the cheese)? We like garlic, but I guess we prefer it cooked.

Reply to Massachusetts has the 2nd earliest average high school start time in the country (7:38am) by LuckyLaceyKS
This article caught my attention when it was posted weeks ago in r/texas.
I still visit that subreddit because we moved from TX to MA in October.
We had kids go through high school in Texas, and we now have kids in elementary, middle, and high school in MA.
I was a bit surprised how early high school starts in MA, as that is the ONLY thing that Texas seems to be more progressive on. We’re quite happy to be here. Not happy about that excise tax bill I just got from my town here for my car. Oh, well…

Ok, I know the government does put out dietary guidelines for people to follow if they want to, but I’m not sure what regulations you are referring to.
When you say regulations, do you mean restrictions, or something that somehow penalizes companies that make food if they don’t follow certain rules? I was unaware of such things (outside certain states like the one where NY limited portion size on sodas, or something else rare and isolated like that).

Please explain the relevance of having Triple A. My official Masshole RealID DL is on the way from the RMV, but I’m still new here.
