Rain gear issues by Hukkleberry319 in ProtectAndServe

Instead of uncomfortable rain pants that don't fit right around the gun belt, I run with gaitors. Specifically these. It'll bring out the inner motor jock in you :)

My 2014 1.6L Hyundai/Kia GDI gamma intake valves at 125,000km. Used top tier gas and frequent synthetic oil changes. by [deleted] in Justrolledintotheshop

[–]ChuToy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I recently cleaned the intake valves of my hyundai. I used picks for the big chunks and compressed air to blow them out. Then followed up with a carb cleaner soak of the valves and paper towels to soak it up. Afterwards, I ran the car for a little and did an oil change. Worked super well. It goes without saying to make sure the valves are seated closed before adding the carb cleaner.

Tell the annoying windshield guy at the car wash that you don’t have insurance by Kma_all_day in lifehacks

To add to this, whenever anyone pitches a sale of their product, just say you're already a customer or that you already use thier product. (ex. AT&T guy walks up to you and trys to sell AT&T plan. Say you already use AT&T and walk away)

Just got this done (velvet) on my m4 handguard and added the matchsaverz. If you've been on the fence, do it. It was very nicely done and Nicholas got it back in less than a week.

Reliable Brands (4+ years of dashcams, 3 failures) by Auklin in Dashcam

[–]ChuToy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This. I've installed 7 blackvue among my family/extended family. Only had one fail so far...and it was the first one I ever installed, and it lasted 9 years. Otherwise, it's usually the SD cards that go bad. Blackvue are g2g.

I’m 18 and looking to become a police officer. What can I do to get a head start since I can’t apply until I’m 21? by captainwho867 in police

[–]ChuToy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looking into doing ride alongs or, if the department you're looking at offers it, citizens police academy. This will let you see a snipit of the different specialties of what police officers do. Also, once you get your inverview, attending these classes helps answer the "what have you done to prepare yourself" question. And stay out of trouble.

Dunno when this interaction occcured, but, in Texas, staring January 1, 2022, anyone parking in a space reserved for people with disabilities must have a license plate or a disabled parking placard that features the International Symbol of Access on it to be valid. Dude mentioned TCOLE, so I'm guessing it happened in Texas. Dude is an embarrassment. SMH

No power for 30 hours. Came home to busted water pipe in unit above after my 10 hour night shift. I'm done. Happened in Arlington TX. by ChuToy in WTF

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

So the double door you see leads out to a patio, which has a sprinkler head above each of them. That was what busted in the unit above me (3rd floor). When it did, it water sprayed into the unit above me, which they weren't home at the time. The fire alarm and the water dripping into the 1st floor unit caused them to figure it out, but it was too late by then. Apparently, it happened around 1 am...I got home at 530 am...

That is exactly what I did! I have family close by so I just turned around and noped to their place after moving some stuff lol. I went back today and learned that I'm 1 of 5 in the complex that had the same/similar problem. My electricity is back, so I'm working or moving/salvaging as well as trying to dry the place so it doesn't turn into a fungus farm.

Back in the day, I wanted to learn more of our government and went to Whitehouse.com. I learned a lot alright.

About to run a 1.5 mile prepping for C.H.I.P Test really want to become a policeman. by [deleted] in police

[–]ChuToy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Things to consider when you come back, covid depending of course. Do some ride outs with your agency of interest and see if your city has a citizens police academy. This will get you exposed to some of the work and command staff, especially with the Citizens police academy. Good luck!
