A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Now that I think about it, it was probably before the pandemic. 🤔

Most mower engines are 2-strokes, they're designed to burn oil as lubrication basically, it's added to the gas. You don't need to change the oil. Unless it's a 4 stroke engine (unusual due to size/complexity), or you've got a transmission or some other motorized mechanical behavior.

Most mower engines are absolutely not 2 strokes… they are 99.99% 4 strokes.

Now strim trimmers are maybe 60/40 2s to 4s.
