Oh yeah, I know we talked about it a few weeks ago, but what battery ecosystem should I get into? I think my wife already has a few Ryobi tools, but not so many that we can't start a new. First purchase will probably be a hedge trimmer.

My GF is a landscape designer/custom gardener and we’re both deep in the kobalt brand. It’s lowes in house brand and they warranty everything in store just like craftsman.

generally ryobi is good enough and cheap enough that it doesn’t matter if it isn’t great. Would certainly not recommend ryobi if you’re actually using it for work in trades but the ryobi hedge trimmer is probably half the price of the dewalt and Milwaukee ones. I don’t know about prices wherever you are but around here a single dewalt 5ah 20v battery is around $200 at places like home depot

Oppenheimer is, of course, way too long, but there's some really high highs along the road. Add that to some dynamite performances from the leads, and I'm willing to forgive it its excesses in runtime and in musical score.

This will sound like a backhanded compliment, but I feel like much like Michael Bay, Nolan has pretty much settled into making movies the way he makes movies. Neither is likely to show us many new tricks at this point in their respective careers, but they're both such masters of doing the things that they do, I still appreciate every opportunity to see them at work, especially in cases like this or Pain and Gain where they put those talents to somewhat unusual ends.

Nolan had his head way too far up his own rear end for Oppenheimer. Switching scenes every 2-3 minutes for the first two hours made the movie so completely disjointed. The only really good scene in the movie is the trinity test, which is the only scene over 5 minutes. Since it's the climax of the movie, it's really weird to have another 45 minutes of movie after it.

Pain & Gain is a fantastic movie.

This is why I recommend Kobalt. The warranty through lowes (because like craftsman its their in house brand) is amazing and they're not horribly expensive.

Also, if you didn't know, lowes bought craftsman from sears when they went under and warranties them just like sears did before. You can take a craftsman wrench from the 80s bought at sears that finally croaked in 2023 and lowes will replace it. When we had a trimmer die on us, they replaced the trimmer with a brand new one and let us keep the old battery and charger. Now we just have an additional one.

I use the lawnmower and weedeater at my house weekly. She uses three different trimmers (two pole and one short), leaf blower, and a chainsaw all the time. They're really good and priced great.

Will they replace Craftsman socket wrenches with the equivalent Kobalt? As of 5 to 10 years ago (what is time, really) Kobalt was head and shoulders above Craftsman for those. I got the 150 piece Craftsman set when we got our first house, and eventually just bit the bullet and replaced the wrenches with Kobalt because they kept breaking. My dad tried to sell me on the "well just take it to the store and get it replaced", but they were going to give me the same piece of poo poo wrench I knew was going to break again, and I'd rather just spend more to have the one that will last. Pretty sure I still have one or two of the Craftsman laying around, though, and it'd be sweet to upgrade those for free.

The funny thing about Craftsman is it's just an overall brand name for a collection of tools sold by Sears that was made by various subcontractors of various quality. Sears never made any of them. You had good plants (Western Forge) and lovely plants (National Hand Tool, then later the Chinese plants). It's still the exact same way- Ace Hardware sells the good Craftsman tools, Lowe's sells the Chinese stuff (which has gotten better).

There's a complete subculture of tracing manufacturer marks and dates to find the good tools. For a while they had a Craftsman Industrial line that was literally made by the same plant that did Matco tools.

By they way, this is an amazing read about logistical failures in a Craftsman plant in Texas from when Stanley owned them:

I think they'd be replaced with a craftsman because Lowes is the exclusive craftsman dealer now. I can't say for sure about upgrades.
