My taillights come off with two screws accessible by opening the bed. Headlights are dead simple too. The only difficult maintenance task I have is sparkplugs, and that's only because I have 16 of them. I mean, they come with gas struts and underhood lights! They're actually made to be worked on. What a concept. e: ew, snipe. here's my favorite USCSB video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rktMzw2fd28 solarNativity fucked around with this message at 02:49 on Oct 1, 2021 |

My apologies for quoting something two weeks old but just in case this went un-noticed I wanted to make note that I noticed.

No one tell the LAPD You can put a scale inside of the bomb box, that way you know how much bomb is in the box.

You could even do some galaxy brain poo poo like have a departmental policy that you only load the box to, say, 85% of the manufacturer's listed capacity.

I dunno I guess I'm ready to have my mind boggled again. Started out as something akin to diabetic compression socks, then the whole "copper" thing started a decade-ish ago when people started assigning woo powers to copper (see CopperFit products). E: pretty sure it's antimicrobial but the bigger factor is the woo. Like PowerBalance magnet bracelets. CRUSTY MINGE fucked around with this message at 20:56 on Oct 1, 2021 |

That's the injector head of a coil tubing unit. It is very much supposed to be perfectly upright. A coil tubing unit runs tubing in and out of a drilled hole with specialized tools on it to do different functions. It can be used on active, producing wells. The stripper/packer holds the pressure of the well, and is above where that bend is. So now they have a kinked tubing string that is holding all the valves open that they can't pull out. If that well is under pressure, I don't even know how they would fix this gently caress-up.

EvenWorseOpinions posted:I am used to and accept that flat earthers and crystals people exist, it boggles my mind that anyone questions germ theory. Copper socks? I dunno I guess I'm ready to have my mind boggled again. There's a quack medicine movement called "grounding" or "earthing". The basic concept is that people are healthier when they're electrically grounded. Most of the people who believe in it just walk around barefoot a lot, or wire themselves up to copper stakes that they hammer into their yard. When they're dumb enough to spend a lot of money on it, then they get electrically conductive sheets or rugs that are wired up to electrical ground. Conductive socks are one of their things, although I've mostly seen them made with silver. None of the people involved know anything about how electricity works. There's also a lot of crossover with the "5G gave my kids autism and cancer" crowd.

With the existence of such things as 'docking', 'sounding' and 'soaking', is it weird that my first reaction to hearing 'grounding' is "ew what's this weird new sex thing?"

Except they did it by running a cable from a ground connection to their perineum while meditating.

I think some socks and underware use copper or silver "ions" or whatever in the fibers to reduce microb growth and thus reduce odor. They're popular with campers or travelers who want to stretch time between laundry.

They're popular with campers or travelers who want to stretch time between laundry. The soil here in Finland is so acidic that almost everything organic rots away in not a long time. But the presence of bronze jewelry in some iron age graves has preserved the fabrics they were worn over so we have been able to make reproductions of what at least the wealthy would have worn back then. Something to do with metal salts. Nenonen fucked around with this message at 11:40 on Oct 2, 2021 |
