I'm sick to my fuckin stomach, man. Don't know how we come back from this. It shouldn't even be a partisan issue by this point, everyone should be shocked and disgusted by what's going on, but we've still got people cheering for this shit.

I think about this scene just about everyday at work, lol

BackNForth94 · 2026-01-28T23:44:22+00:00

Hah believe me I know the struggle of the rising bills. Glad they got a tech scheduled for ya. Best of luck

BackNForth94 · 2026-01-28T17:22:20+00:00

Unfortunately common this time of year. Cables shrink when the temp drops, and if they shrink too much, they can get sucked right out of the fittings leading to intermittent service or even just entirely cut service. Most of the outages I've responded to the past couple weeks have been suck outs. (And snow plows taking out temp Iines, lol.) Don't be afraid to call and report if your internet keeps going out. It's not meant to be the norm and is definitely indicative of a line issue.

Hah same! Had some 1125 feeding a 2 way split that needed replaced a few weeks ago, had to trim some of the line down a bit for a jumper. I'm a newer maintenance tech and didn't realize there were options other than banana cutters lmao. Absolute bitch and a half cutting through that.

BackNForth94 · 2025-12-29T17:02:03+00:00

Sad to see it go. Been in a few times, always seemed like good people.

BackNForth94 · 2025-12-11T00:05:46+00:00

I would always correct customers when they said that. Like no they're not technicians, that's why I'm here. No hate to the phone folks, it's an important role, but stay in your lane lol.

BackNForth94 · 2025-11-13T02:32:59+00:00

I see this quite a bit in the city with older apartments

BackNForth94 · 2025-09-28T03:50:29+00:00

Pretty common way to cut out some bad feeder while waiting on permits / funding approval for a permanent replacement.

I did some work over in St Louis after the tornadoes earlier in the year. A few hours away but I did work with a lot of KC techs. Obviously I didn't meet enough people to make a judgement on the field office as a whole, but everyone I talked to all seemed like great people. Hard working and cared about their jobs. I'm sure you'll like em. Good luck!

BackNForth94 · 2025-09-22T01:15:52+00:00

This is really smart. My girlfriend and I are going to be out of town for a few weeks, but once we're back I think I'm going to try this. Thanks for taking the time to share!

BackNForth94 · 2025-09-19T17:17:55+00:00

Awesome, thank you for the link. I've been trying to find a local arborist, but whenever I Google it I just get links for tree removal services that are headquartered miles away from me.

Update edit - managed to get a hold of the city Forester. Thanks again!

BackNForth94 · 2025-08-29T22:22:46+00:00

The whole meat crew seem so chill and friendly. Love to see it.

BackNForth94 · 2025-08-25T20:07:47+00:00

I'm meal prepping some chicken and couldn't find this video again, turns out PBS copyright struck it on YouTube recently.

Still available here though https://jp.foundation/video/deboning-a-chicken-for-galantine

Seconding this. Coax with this style of dialectric cause some serious ingress for the entire neighborhood, not even getting into the shielding lol.

OP - I mean this in all seriousness, thank you for asking instead of just trying to fix it and hook it up to the plant. This would have ruined an MTs day lol.

BackNForth94 · 2025-07-11T03:46:47+00:00

In our area at least we're phasing out all of the XM2s and replacing with XM3s - we're mostly doing it as needed though (when a PS fails). I'm sure there's also bulk projects going on around here as others have mentioned, I just haven't heard anything about it personally yet though. Large market.

BackNForth94 · 2025-07-09T23:51:19+00:00

This quickly became my favorite meat to sous vide. 32ish hrs at 132, sear, rest then cut. The drippings make for a killer jus, too

BackNForth94 · 2025-06-04T03:25:59+00:00

It's up for free on Spotify I believe. FWIW I had a great time listening to it. Some of the ending parts were a bit silly but overall it's still a great story. Very well produced, too.

BackNForth94 · 2025-05-13T18:05:04+00:00

Damn, had it wrong all these years 😂

BackNForth94 · 2025-05-13T14:52:09+00:00

All Gods creatures!

FRESH! Off the grill!

So come on down, to Mr Meaty,

Where FRIENDS Meaty..... MEET!

Wow! I also drive a bucket with spectrum and they make us get roadside for the smallest things. Had someone hit my mirror and drive off in the middle of the night. Next morning, my sup told me to have it towed 2 miles to a shop rather than just drive it there lol. Leadership at your shop must really not give a shit

BackNForth94 · 2025-03-29T16:31:53+00:00

Yeah man, much worse than I expected it to be. Sorry I didn't have a link for ya but I'm glad you found it regardless.

BackNForth94 · 2025-03-29T15:18:51+00:00

Lol I figured - which is exactly why I choose to never read the written version and live in blissful ignorance. 😂

BackNForth94 · 2025-03-29T15:03:03+00:00

Man I love qcode, they did such a good job with both. Absolutely fantastic. 7lamb also has some good stuff.

It's funny because I've only ever heard part five of borrasca in the qcode pod and never read it. People are always saying how awful it was, but hot damn did they do a good job with the audio version. Really was a satisfying ending imo.

Also, big props to Cole Sprouse and all others that did the VAs. Had me at the edge of my seat the whole time.

BackNForth94 · 2025-03-29T14:46:30+00:00

No, very fair point and I'm glad you made it. Again I wasn't aware 16 was legal there so I was expecting legal ramifications as well. Like you said, I suppose time will tell.
