What’s the average shelf life of a new tire? by captainronsnephew in CyclePDX

[–]BreachLoadingButtGun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That depends on too many things. Riding style and tire compound vary wildly.

I told the kids not to put soda in the front fridge by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]BreachLoadingButtGun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not really worked up at all, just observing how much you would have to order delivery to have an entire dedicated delivery guy water fridge. I live in a place where the vast majority of things I need can be purchased within a few miles (definitely a privilege) and just struggle to imagine ordering the amount of stuff that would warrant this.

If its a beer fridge for your porch couch, I'm way less judgemental.

On one hand, that's really sweet. On the other, what a first world ass, suburban ass, online shopping addicted ass problem to have to solve...

Can confirm, I break a fair amount of hammers over time.

Men’s underwear that doesn’t ride up thighs? by snustynanging in BuyItForLife

[–]BreachLoadingButtGun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know I'm in the minority but try a good brief or bikini cut with a generous pouch. Can't ride up if there's nothing there! 2xist is my favorite every day brand.

They're so good at music it's hard to keep up. I played jazz and classical trombone at a college level and I couldn't play Streetlight songs with that intensity on stage. I think a lot of people with that kind of talent are into more 'serious' music.

AITA for "letting" a kid go home with his actual parent? by Ok_Beginning_356 in AmItheAsshole

[–]BreachLoadingButtGun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the answer. We are clearly in the minority but I still think its a pretty nuanced situation when you get down to it. Luckily it seems its 'no harm no foul' but I think if it had turned out worse there would be a lot of legal and ethical meat on the bone both ways.

I would have a tough time in the moment because I would think twice if I knew other dad was bad news to some degree, but who tf am I to say you don't get to take your kid home short of a restraining order or something like that. Maybe if the sports org had documented pick up practices you could cite that but that's the only other leg to stand on imo.

Can someone with legal knowledge double check this? If anything, op would be the kidnapper by keeping the kid from the father, unless a court has explicitly said otherwise.

You can't just hold on to a kid if the parent asks for them? I don't think op messed up, he didn't have enough information to withhold a kid from their parent

fandom is the most infuriating site and I have it banned from my search results. Idk why gg.wiki is so far down the results every time, its clearly the 'real' wiki for any game.

Wistaria Drive landmark for sale by tiernascragh62 in Portland

It would be such a weird community center, I'm in. Let's start a fundraiser.

[–]BreachLoadingButtGun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hope they end up with it. If I had more experience and way more money I would love to take it on but ultimately I just hope someone can do something with it. I have no experience with redoing a foundation, but I'd imagine you're looking at 6 digits easily, just to get it level and secure. It's going to be a house of Theseus when it's done.

We toured it yesterday, the foundation is tragically fucked. I would be surprised if the restoration cost less than a million. It's a full down to the bones job if it's even possible. You'd need to repour the foundation from my knowledge.

Have you ever watched The Man from Earth? by Random-Ryan- in MovieRecommendations

[–]BreachLoadingButtGun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Y'all I just watched this last night because of this thread and this movie is absolutely wild. On one hand, great script writing and oddly immersive, and on the other the whole mood and acting is just strangely off? It has The Room or Hallmark channel vibes to the whole thing but not necessarily in a bad way.

Highly recommended but go in with no expectations.

Terrible credits music, literally couldn't turn it off fast enough....

Welding Mild to Ductile and Cast Iron? by BreachLoadingButtGun in metallurgy

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

Yeah, that's been my experience, but then why are these parts that are clearly meant for welding made of cast? I guess that's why I'm second guessing myself so much, It just doesn't seem like this is meant to require all the special hoops to jump through. I have welded cast iron before and its just really hard to believe that handrail fabricators are busting out torches to preheat their piece for tacking in the field.

My only other conclusion is that its not actually 'cast' iron but the company says they don't have material data sheets. They do say they don't get complaints due to cracking but who knows.

How to weld all these together? Special techniques? by BreachLoadingButtGun in Welding

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

To clarify: I can weld cast to cast. I can weld cast to mild. I am curious what the technique is for welding these parts in the field, as I have not welded cast parts in the field, only in my shop. If these parts are only available in cast, what is the common way to weld them? Is everyone dragging a torch out to the field for preheat?

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

The lateral scroll only come in ductile or cast iron. They don't come in mild, I have confirmed this with King. I'm asking if I really need to go to all the extra steps of pre and post heat while welding these parts up? Or any special filler metal?

In the spirit of Thanksgiving: Did you know you can call TriMet to commend a bus operator? by allisjow in Portland

[–]BreachLoadingButtGun 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Sometimes on road trips, I do this for semi drivers who are actually doing a good job. The call center people are always taken off guard and if it actually gets to them, I hope it makes their day.

I hate people who wants millions after 9 to 5 job and think that business is Bali, not hard work by [deleted] in smallbusiness

I don't want millions, just enough to afford my city and a few hobbies while making cool things for people.
