You have a very good point. When left alone too long they reinvent Stalinist and Maoist failed policies like the OK politician with the “no man, no problem” approach to journalists and the “Every american should have to be a farmer for a year” from a bit ago.
Needs an Ash Williams style chainsaw hand and a skidding winch grundle
A couple years ago I got a handful of F clamps for christmas.
My wife: “I thought you already have clamps”
Me: “Yes, I do. But not enough.”
Wife: “How many is enough?”
Me: “One more than I have.”
Also a little 18ga brad nailer makes those glueups way easier.
touches nose Why risk your money on gold or silver when you can invest in brass? Pretty good odds on another spicy summer in America.
The knob should just pull off, but sometimes they require full chooch. If she breaks it, it’s not a big deal. If Habitat Re-Store is a thing near her they usually have a shelf of these knobs for almost nothing. If not the big box stores sell them too, and the lights can be turned on and off without the knob until she can get a replacement.
Back when I worked as a handyman I used the old knobs for many things. Some people get very weird about change. I’d usually ask if they wanted the new one to wedge into their junk drawer, though.
Remember, folks: “Private School Choice” has always been a trojan horse for segregated schools. Anyone who supports it is either a rube or a racist.
When my dad died ss went into my parents joint bank account and withdrew the amount of his latest payment. It’s not just fear mongering. It is possible. I don’t think even this administration is ballsy enough to do it, though. The backlash would be enormous, and as another poster mentioned civil asset forfeiture already exists.
For driving fasteners impacts are better. For drilling drills are better. Impacts can drive fasteners that would stall a drill, but drilling metal with an impact would make a dog’s dinner of the bit and piece.
edit: the impact engages at a mid-low torque. That is the point. They drive with the impacts, not direct drive. The ryobi will start impacting about a quarter though a 2" deck screw.
I will add: If you are sinking 2" (50mm) screws into wood, a little 1/4" speed chuck impact like that green ryobi is perfect. Every brand will have one so choose your quality/price balance and get one. Impacts are more forgiving about camming out on screws, they don’t jerk your wrist like a drill, and they are not as hard on batteries.
Very nice! Nice combo 😅
regulations like these are written in blood
Absolutely 100% completely. But in this case it I’m not sure the church is actually violating codes, but rather the city is using the claim as a smokescreen to punish them for helping homeless people.
This article quotes the city.
Bryan’s planning and zoning administrator gave the church 10 days to stop housing people, saying it was in a zone that does not permit residential use on the first floor.
There’s that, but also whoever controls the panama canal has a huge amount of power in global trade. Almost anything made in China and sold East of the Mississippi in the US went through the canal. Almost anything Made in the western US and sold in the EU went through the canal. Panama is also going through a drought that is lowering the levels in the reservoirs they use to raise the locks. This is causing them to raise crossing fees and restrict traffic. The line-go-up people hate that, as they’d turn panama into a desert before they slowed the increase in their profits.
Well that’s troubling. Seems to me that “I’ll shoot you if you leave this cage” is pretty darn violent.
Solution oriented
Well I’ll be. Poked around and even teslas have aftermarket head units available.
I just installed a new head unit in my car this year. It’s still a thing. I do think the sizing standard is dying as car manufacturers currently favor integrated units over modular. I hope that fades as these cars age and people see the flaw of “my car wont start because a capacitor in my radio dried out and it fails post”.
Elon’s step mother-sister? Who was adopted as a young child? Who has had multiple children with Musk sr?
I completely get where you are coming from.
The Republicans have been pushing all this shit since before I was born and the Democrat’s answer has been small business loans to compete against the corporate consolidation they take no steps to slow and other neoliberal bullshit. The Democrats complete capitulation to the right wing surge, and complete fumbling of creating economic policies that doesn’t breed disillusioned youth ripe to be picked by fascists, has left a festering wasteland. I don’t think more hurting will somehow make anything better or convince people that the grifters selling them snake oil are wrong. I’m worried that the muscles of empathy and compassion are too weak to pull anything good from the ashes.
I don’t know how to convince more people to care about their neighbors, but I do know that is the only way to make anything worth having. Even if they are an asshole. The system doesn’t need any help destroying itself. Capitalism and fascism are death cults. What we need is more people showing good examples of horizontal mutual aid. Helping someone who needs help can teach a better lesson than hurting them. Even if they are an asshole.
