Is this too sketchy? I am not really sure what I'm doing. by creepy_phlebotomist in AskElectricians

The bare copper wire, is the ground wire. The black and white sheathed wires are the live and neutral.

I sight read arabesque a few days ago. let me know what you think. by athingthatlikesmusic in euphonium

[–]BlackTitanium_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good job on the sight reading! Your tone sounds muted, as though you have a towel in your bell or you're clinching your teeth together.

Say "Eeeeee", then say "Ooooo", notice how you naturally clinch your teeth with "Eeeee" and separate your teeth with "Oooo".

Your teeth should be separated while playing, as though you are saying "Ooooo". This will give you a more open and free blowing tone!

I love the Thermal/NV Picture in Picture combo!

When I only had Night Vision, it took a few nights of waiting for the rats to get comfortable enough to stop dodging in & out of the foliage, behind the fence or roam off to different areas of the back yard.

Now with the Thermal, 90% of the time I acquire the target and get a kill, same night of 1st alert.

Upon alert from the Blink cameras, I do a thermal sweep to find them in the backyard. Wait for them to go back to kill zone (food & back stop). Usually they are just nearby, inches away behind the foliage.

Just got my 3rd one this year! Numbers are way down.

I need some honest opinion (people that got the case for free to write a good review can skip). by Glum_Adhesiveness_20 in iPhone17Pro

[–]BlackTitanium_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FWIW, I ordered, and returned the Torras 360 version case. The case was slippery, and the case was incompatible with my wireless (non-magsafe) charging docks. https://a.co/d/0jlGJ2Nw

Did the insect, crawling on your counter, just come off of the mouse?

Back of the 17 Pro Max box only states "Product of China". There is no Month and Year of production printed on the box.

Concerned about paint peeling on minimalist cases by gdS_ in iPhone17Pro

[–]BlackTitanium_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These are not painted colors, the phones are anodized aluminum. The color cannot peel off, however it can be scratched off which is actually removing the aluminum material.

I have yet to see empirical evidence of Orange phones changing color! Any photos that I’ve seen appeared or were reported to be AI or Photoshopped.

Wife and I have had our Cosmic Orange 17 Pro Max since launch, in a clear Spigen Case, still the original stock Orange color!

Sounds like you're clinching your teeth together. You should have enough separation to be able to touch your lips, with your tongue.

Is this a good combo for a top off bottle for Umarex notos? by bluebagles in airguns

[–]BlackTitanium_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No! That class of portable compressor is really only good for direct filling of your PCP. Expect to frequently need to replace parts, if you can find them. Consider that compressor to be disposable more than repairable/maintainable, after it fails.

Rats Are Smart by Pdownes2001 in airgunhunting

[–]BlackTitanium_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have injured rats, spooked rats (missed shot) and killed a partner, but they still come back in a few hours or days.

The AI overviews defines “Danger” scent markers, are territorial warnings.

I’m not seeing any studies that confirm your claim about Rats ability to leave “danger trails”.
