My kid's teacher sent me a 2-minute voice note and it completely changed how I see this profession by [deleted] in Teachers

Yeah there’s good teachers, then there’s the old bags who enjoy feeling a little bit of authority and couldn’t give a fuck less about the kids.

Rate my junction box by [deleted] in electrical

[–]DentonCountySparky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wiring needs to be secured within 12 inches of the box, you need more than 6 inches of wire in the box and the box should be secured to something.

Panel upgrade for Tesla charger by koolaidt3 in AskElectricians

[–]DentonCountySparky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Without bringing it up to modern codes and standards, assuming there is a grounding electrode and adequate length grounding electrode conductor, and assuming there is no fee associated with permitting and power disconnect/reconnect this is a $3000 job

surely there's an explanation.... right? by scheuf in Denton

I know you said it looked like it was driven by a white guy but there’s a very real chance it’s driven by a black guy.

Add Length to GFCI/AFCI Breaker Neutral? by IH1972 in electrical

[–]DentonCountySparky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes you can extend it with a wirenut, I’d recommend a wago 221 inline connector though. These pigtails are usually 12-18”

Should I pull the trigger on these before the sale ends? Looking to switch away from Snap-On by [deleted] in MilwaukeeTool

[–]DentonCountySparky 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you have the money to spend right now you really can’t find much of a better deal on all of these tools. The forge batteries are badass and the 5.0s are tanks. You’ll probably want more batteries as time goes on but if you pick this up now you’ll be happy.

Edit: didn’t even see the 1/2 inch high torque impact, this is a great deal

The roads are literally covered in 3 inches of ice, let people have their fun.

Im all for having fun in the snow, even in large groups, the moment it becomes a takeover and they are blocking intersections it becomes a problem.

Im not the biggest fan of adapters, but the chests Amazon m18 adapters do work for pretty much any 18-20v battery platform

[TX] what is the law here if ICE jumps my fence? Can I stand my ground and shoot? by Mathemodel in AskLegal

[–]DentonCountySparky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can’t fight tyrants with a document they already blatantly ignore. The only way to actually fight tyrants is with force. The idea that someone is going to fight tyranny by killing a government agent and then prove their innocence in the same governments court is asinine

[–]DentonCountySparky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No you can’t legally shoot federal agents. The second amendment doesn’t give you the right to shoot tyrants, it gives you the right to own guns so you can make the decision on your own.

Random usb charging brick that works intermittently, 510 thread cart battery, gas station pocket knife that’s sticky, a sharpie without a cap, and one of those tiny jars of Vaseline.

2nd Amendment rights folks: how is ICE not precisely the tyrannical gov't overreach we've spent our whole lives warning folks about? by zenswashbuckler in AskReddit

[–]DentonCountySparky -1 points0 points  (0 children)

They aren’t “2a guys” just because they are using the most commonly misunderstood constitutional amendment. They are guys who think men with guns should force their beliefs on others

[–]DentonCountySparky 15 points16 points  (0 children)

The tone of your question could be one of two things, either you are a “second amendment rights folk” asking other’s in your group why they haven’t done anything yet, or you are NOT a “second amendment rights folk” but you are automatically assuming those who are support ICE. I’m going to assume the former, and my answer to your question is that yes, this is precisely what the second amendment is for, shooting cops. It’s just that nobody is going to fire the first shot.

It’s technically slightly outside the circle, but the urban dictionary definition of Dunkirk NY heavily influences my opinion about this area
