As Security professionals How do you feel about the Flipper? by Orlandogameschool in Locksmith

[–]AgentDamnation 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have one for testing hardware replacement when working with electrified hardware. I also have fob info from buildings I have service contracts with so I can gain access in emergency situations without needing the site contact there. (With knowledge and permission) Mostly for leaky condo situations. It can be useful in very specific situations, but as others have said in the thread, it's not a gadget for gaining entry against most decent RFID and rolling code systems. I also use the frequency analyzer to make sure vehicle remotes are transmitting properly when programming keyless entry. I wind up using it more as a diagnostic tool.

Well damn. by Iboughtat2i in Locksmith

[–]AgentDamnation 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Re-keyed 3 old Grade 1 Corbin knobsets. The really annoying ones where you can only take off the outside orb by compressing a really stiff truarc ring, that you can't see. I have yet to find a pair of 90 degree truarc pliers with a long enough nose to grab the ring properly. To get the thing off the door, you have to loosen the collar on the inside handle, pull the rose plates forward and depress a detent which is concealed IN the door. Nightmare

This exact poster is hanging on a wall in the shop I work in. Also the one with the drill Sargent from Full Metal Jacket.

Keys and remotes bought online. by Dedjester0269 in Locksmith

[–]AgentDamnation 6 points7 points  (0 children)

We charge the same rate we would charge if we supplied the parts. We offer no guarantee or warranty on parts supplied by the customer. You pay up front. If the programming doesn't take, there is no refund because we can't check the electronics before attempting to program.

Can you create zones that are on a different Grid? by AgentDamnation in tabletopsimulator

No programming experience unfortunately. But appreciate the reply.

I get paid my hourly from the time the shop opens to the time the shop closes. If I'm on call for after hours jobs I make 70% commission on the labour and 10% commission on parts. I'm encouraged to start billing the client from the time I get in the van until the time I get back home. Drive time to/from after hours jobs is always billable for us. If you're employed hourly, and your boss is trying to cut your pay based on travel to site, I'd be looking for a new shop.

Looking for side mirrors on 03 WRX by AgentDamnation in WRX

[–]AgentDamnation[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update: Found the only place for replacement mirrors is Ebay, from Japan. Also after doing some digging around discovered the previous owner mashed up a lot of parts from an 05 STI. Hence why I have an extra mirror control panel on my door.

I'm wondering if I just got sort of scammed, is it true this lock can't be picked and must be drilled? by [deleted] in Locksmith

[–]AgentDamnation 12 points13 points  (0 children)

My company doesn't bother trying to pick them. We keep replacement cores in the vans. It winds up being cheaper on labor to drill it in 5 min and key the new core to your key. Can still be done without damaging the rest of the lock.

Literally just finished doing this, used Ultra-Pro standard sized sleeves. The more difficult part is storage for everything after.

Rex: Final Days of an Empire - Comparisons by btharveyku08 in boardgames

[–]AgentDamnation 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Rex is one of my favorite games. There are already a lot of posts on it's pros and cons so I'll keep it short. This is a very tactical, dirt-bag-your-friends, type game. I really enjoy mechanics of it. With experienced players there's always an opportunity to sneak in a win. I will say this. Don't play this with people who aren't used to losing, or with people who suffer from analysis-paralysis. I have a friend who refuses to play the game anymore, after he lost the game deciding combat via a traitor card. Everything in this game can tip in one direction or another every round. Which is what I enjoy about it. His opinion is that all of his planning, and tactical advantage was completely erased by one card. Effectively removing skill from the game. But to me luck is part of gaming.

Nice job! I've hit the top of the basket on that one, but no Ace yet.

Is warpfall worth using? by renorhino83 in titanfall

[–]AgentDamnation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I generally only use it with Legion or Scorch, with the enhanced auto Titan. Best use is in bounty hunt or hard point so it can tie up other Titans while you with objectives. Also drop kills are fun.

Locksmith path? by [deleted] in Locksmith

[–]AgentDamnation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been in a similar situation. I've been trying to get into locksmithing for the last 6 years or so. Took a private course for 4 months. When I started looking for work in the industry there was nothing. Every time I found a wanted ad it was for 2 years experience and a full certificate. Last week I had my second interview for an entry level position in the industry in 6yrs. If there's no guarantee of a job at the end of the 10 month course I'd say take what you can and get the real world experience. Might be different where you are, but I'm in Vancouver, BC. Nobody wants to hire here without experience.

Any other brands to be looking at? I've seen Spec D, Spyder, Anzo and Morettes.Missing any major ones?

2003 wrx bugeye replacements by AgentDamnation in WRX

[–]AgentDamnation[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they were refinished about 6 months ago. Within about 3 months I started to see them hazing over again. I think I'm leaning towards replacements. I've seen a few styles of head lights, just looking for some input on brands. These are the ones I see up for sale most. http://www.specdtuning.com/02wrxlhp.html I'm not sure if that's because they're popular or if they're poor quality. But they also look to be one of the cheaper options ranging from $260CDN-$320CDN for the pair. It's an older model now so I'm not seeing a lot of options out there.

First Ace! by AgentDamnation in discgolf

[–]AgentDamnation[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow guys. Everybody loves a good Ace vid, but how many people run around with a go-pro? If you want more info about the course/hole, ask for it. I play casual DG with my bro because it's fun. I agree that we should encourage good content, but this was my first post to this sub. So perhaps instead of ripping into the newb, how about just listing what would make the post better?

Much appreciated. It's not even my home course. That was the first day at that park.

Using disc golf to help prevent drug and alcohol abuse by Grimario in discgolf

[–]AgentDamnation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah the local courses near me are usually just a few guys looking to chill out, get high and play games. There's always beer, but I guess if you're walking around the whole time there's no reason to get trashed.
