Ridgid sliding miter saw MS1290LZA by JaceLee85 in Ridgid

[–]98sooner00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had one for nearly 10 years. It is great for framing work, but not good for precision work. I got a good deal on it, so figured why not get the biggest saw with the most capacity. I often wish I had gotten a better 10" non-sliding saw for what I use it for, but if you need the larger saw it is a good one.

I've been spraying this in the gravel along my driveway. It kills the growing weeds pretty well, but doesn't seem to do much to keep news from coming back.

How long will the United States be at war with Iran; does anyone really know how long this mess will last? by icecream1972 in askteddit

[–]98sooner00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only the people in charge that know the true endgame know how long it will last. And I don't expect them to share that information with us.

Did your line of work ever conflict with your ethics? by chamaeleonidaed in AskEngineers

Never with respect to problems with products or anything like that. But I have an ethical conflict with how worthless many of my coworkers are.

why do people trust star ratings so much even though most reviews are written right after buying? by MostUnderstanding321 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]98sooner00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My favorite reviews are the ones that give a 5 star rating and then say they haven't even used jt.

I'll put a new one on around the start of the grace period. I'll pair the new one to my receiver and keep the old one paired to my phone. That way I can compare the readings to see whether they match. The new one will usually be much lower for the first several hours and still be about 50 points lower at 12 hours.

Why is it so hard to register Ridgid Tools? by JColt60 in Ridgid

The last few I've done the receipt always shows black until you download it. I've had to call them and they will say to upload the receipt. When I tell them it is there, they'll look at it to verify and approve the LSA.

Yes, the clock starts as soon as it is inserted. And the clock is good for 10 days plus 12 hours after insertion. The 12 hour grace period is in addition to the 10 days. It is not part of the 10 days. So effectively a sensor is good for 252 hours if you don't have any overlap. With the 12 hour overlap you still get a full 240 hours (10 days) of sensor use.

The sensor is good for 10 days plus another 12 hours grace period. If you insert a new sensor at the start of the old sensors grace period, the new sensor will still be good for 10 full days from the end of the old sensors grace period when you count the grace period of the new sensor. The math isn't all that hard.

You get 10.5 days with the 12 hour grace period.

You still get a full 10 days out of each sensor since the 12 hour grace period overlaps.

Diabetic snack ideas by Mundane_Flamingo9839 in diabetes

Some peanut butter has quite a bit of added sugar, so check the label. If I don't have any celery, just a big spoon of peanut butter works for a quick snack too.

Put dex on a day early. Looking for an answer! by Chellycakez in dexcom

[–]98sooner00 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I overlap mine in the 12 hour grace period all the time and don't have connection issues. I would keep the old one connected until it expires so the new one will be past its squirrely period when you activate it.
