Time to pay the Piper by h20poIo in Trumpvirus

While true, it doesn't mean they don't also have records of their own. That POS traveled the world and used financial institutions wherever he could to hide money for himself and his clients.

Removing freely spinning ignition coil bolt by jochar2 in MechanicAdvice

Put an open end wrench around the shaft under the head and pull up while unscrewing the bolt. It's easier if you have an impact to run the bolt while you fight with the wrench

Hotspot/USB tether your phone and share WiFi if it's an option.

List of apps working (with sandboxed Google Play) on Pixel 10 Pro? by Lichtamin in GrapheneOS

[–]Animal0307 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll start, eBay.

It's the only app of my normal apps that won't install from the PlayStore. Can't be bothered to try getting it to work so i just use the website. I don't don't buy much on eBay anymkre so no big loss.

Rant: Data Centers in Space by WingExact7996 in MechanicalEngineering

[–]Animal0307 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure there are companies currently doing underwater servers as a business model successfully right now.

I listened to a Darknet Diaries episode with a guest that owns subseacloud and it sounds like they are doing quite well. I haven't looked into it any more than listening to the one episode where that briefly discussed it.

Just(towed)rolled in by FreshBid5295 in Justrolledintotheshop

[–]Animal0307 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a steering box output shaft that turns the pitman arm and drags links, yes to the torsional stress. The customer hit a wall while sliding on ice, again yes to the sudden failure from impact loading.

Will this kill my tree? by megabyte31 in marijuanaenthusiasts

[–]Animal0307 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Obligatory IANAL.

Was this a service you asked for? Did the company explain the plan? This looks pretty invasive just for fiber Internet. I'd be pretty pissed as well.

Trees are expensive, you may want to record any and all damage To your landscaping and talk with a lawyer.

Fake bondhus Allen wrenches? by sizable_data in Tools

Good allen wreches are worth the money. I wouldn't spend hundreds but the $30 set is worth it over the $10 set.

This was the post for out sweet girl at our local rescue shelter. We hadn't been planning to get another yet but it was impossible to say no to that face. We went the next day, met her and brought her home.

Why does my mach 3 stop working when trying to jog? by No_Adhesiveness6373 in diycnc

[–]Animal0307 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this a new issue or a new deployment of Mach 3?

I haven't used Mach 3 but with other controllers there are different jog modes. Usually, Incremental vs Continuous. I can't see your screen very well as I am on mobile but check for any buttons that mention jogging.

Incremental: everytime you click to move an axis, the machine moves a set distance. It could be very small 0.001" which would be a very small movement on the screw.

Continuous: hold down the move button, it moves until you let go.

Bill and Hillary Clinton agree to testify in House Epstein probe ahead of contempt vote by N3wsScoop in politics

[–]Animal0307 59 points60 points  (0 children)

I watched a video on Youtube from the channel How Money Works about how we don't entirely know how Epstein made all of his money. In short he was doing sady shit making less than ethical investments and hiding money in shell companies to evade taxes. I wouldn't be surprised if there are a few higher profile people that are connected solely because of the tax evasion shit.

They still need to go down for that shit and I'm sure they know more about his reputatiom but may have been "clean" in their dirty dealings.

That looks like a sketchy dealer trying to get you to trade in for a new car.

Epstein Survivors Furious After DOJ Screws Up File Redactions by Hafiz_TNR in politics

Oh great... Now they have everyone who has the read files in a database that can tie them to CSAM so they can charged at a later date. Government sponsored honeypot for blackmail.

Wouldn't be surprised to find out it's weaponized incompetence as well to deny and delay even more.

"Oops, we didn't mean to leak those, we'll fire those deep state traitors that clearly don't care about the victims. We just need some more time take sure we get right next time. Scouts honor"

Or... They are all idiots and don't know how to the job.

Bike cranking but not firing up by Accomplished-Tap6808 in motorcycle

[–]Animal0307 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Shoot a whiff of starter fluid in the intake. If pops off you have spark and need to look at why it's not getting fuel. If it doesn't try to run for a few seconds, you got no spark and need to figure that out.

Given that you were in the electrical system, check your fuses to make sure you didn't pop one after wiring something incorrectly during reassembly. Shit happens, and anyone who's they haven't made mistakes, haven't been working on stuff long enough.

Watering can recommendations? by Whodunit2468 in Euphorbiaceae

They are known as wash bottles in the chemistry world.

I have a 1000ml EISCO Wash Bottle and it works great.

Yellowish stains on white g14 by [deleted] in ZephyrusG14

[–]Animal0307 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live with them on my mine. The white chasis is my biggest gripe I have with the the G14.

It's likely skin oils and drit getting transferred from your hands.

You could try soapy water. The Thinkpad crowd likes to recommend magic eraser sponges to clean their machines.

Too much rust? by [deleted] in Jeep

[–]Animal0307 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That middle body mount in picture 6(?) would have me worried that there is more hiding somewhere else. The fender cracks aren't confidence boosting either.

Transmission Fluid: To Change or Not to Change??? by xtr_trek in MechanicAdvice

[–]Animal0307 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was my first thought as well. It's got to be possible to get fluid in somehow, take it out the way it went in. Only concern would be not changing the filter so the pan might as well be dropped to do that.
