okay the guys at the shop don't think i'm ready for welding yet. explain how he's loving up?

as a rough rule of thumb you want about 1 amp per .001” of base material thickness up to around 300 amps. that material looks to be 1/2 to 3/4” (just my eyeball guess) so he’s not putting enough heat into the root of the weld for good penetration. its just for a photo op so who cares, but that would be putting a “stringer bead” on top of the material without actually fusing the tube to the plate.

also those little harbor freight 120v units generally aren’t capable of the duty cycle or amperage that the job requires. we sometimes use those specifically to avoid burning through thin gauge sheet metal, never for heavy duty structural applications.

yeah, deleted my account, and it's kind of nice. another reason to stop going there is that profiles sort posts by number of likes rather than by date without logging in.

It’s not surprising but the blue checks are nothing but white nationalists. It’s safe to assume if someone has a blue check they’re a raging racist or Nazi :laffo: good job X the everything app.

Depends on what you want out of your Twitter alternative.

If you just want the shitposts Bluesky is your best bet, if you want hobbies, art and scientific/techy stuff then go to a Mastodon instance. If you just want a good news aggregate I don't even know, I've looked around but haven't found anything.

Finally deleted the app. The tipping point was seeing a picture of a woman who got beaten so badly that half her face was swollen by an account called "single woman posting their Ls". Reported it and nothing was done. Site is legitimately loving evil.

For me it was when reporting people using straight up slurs or racist imagery got below a coin flip's chance of there being any repercussions or not.
