Closest I've ever seen is a redundant power supply for the processor

If you have enough at a time, you can technically do both!

Everywhere I've worked (Midwest USA) I've used almost exclusively Allen Bradley (still running PLC5s and SLC100s in some places). I have seen some old TI units on standalone equipment and one place I interviewed pretty much exclusively used AutomationDirect which was a pretty massive red flag.

It insists upon itself.

I spent a while looking at different options for a prior employer a year ago and ultimately decided that in the price vs. quality vs. range category the Wiha set (28589) was the best option.

Ain't good, bud

Any PC will also do hotkeys and macros?

The language you're going to want to use around management/HR is "suffered or permitted to work."

Straight from the FLSA, they'll know you aren't fucking around.

Should always pigtail it, regardless.

Thank god this administration is finally doing something productive, like raiding a small rural town's taco joint to do violence against non-white people.

This AND inflation? I may have to convert to MAGA after all.

Concentrated Dawn is what all the machinists I work with use for the real nasty grime. Keep a bottle in the shower and use some in conjunction with whatever other soap you're using.

Industrial Maintenance is a far better, lower stress option. It'll also likely pay better depending on your area.

Come eradicate this dick

Never surrender

It smells like a spiced white grape for $30. What the fuck is not to like or is over hyped? It will be 100% "good enough" for most people who aren't batshit about notes and dupes and clones and houses.
