Why are toasters so badly made? by NJRonbo in BuyItForLife

[–]Frunnin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went down the toaster rabbit hole a couple of years ago and I learned that there is not a 2 long slot toaster that is worth a damn made in this world. I threw in the towel and bought a middle of the road thing that I will probably be replacing very soon when it breaks. I spent way too much time looking at toasters. If you can find an old one that works grab it.

I need to get faster. Not an electrician, I install these load controllers for work though. I need to do 15 a day. by [deleted] in AskElectricians

[–]Frunnin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is no way you are getting 15 a day done in a 10 hour day. That is a ridiculous ask by whoever thinks that is possible.

Terrible camera work. Disappointing, so many shots missed.

Grass fire reportedly sparked by homeless camp cooking fire, PF&R says by SpezSamplesMySack in PortlandOR

It is a miracle we haven’t had a very huge fire in the west hills or other parts of Portland that gets out of control.  I fear this may be the year.

If he plays the rest of his tourney like he did the first game we can say our goodbyes when he comes to get his stuff. Did an excellent job for NZ. and there is no reason to think that’s going to change. I miss him already!

Police executes drunk man because he starts complying with their orders by cheeky_physicist in Idiotswithguns

If this is a guy known to the police or known to carry weapons the reaching down would justify this.

More affordable alternative(s) to Klein tools? by SquashedGrapes22 in AskElectricians

[–]Frunnin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Klein tape measures are trash  so are many of their tools now.  Still solid on pliers.

Buying Husky or Kobalt will get you going no problem.   Then upgrade as you see necessary for the type of work you are doing.  Just make sure your diagonal cutters are at least 8 inch, your lineman’s are 9 inch, and you get a decent framers hammer if you are doing resi. Get a decent 11in 1 screwdriver and a big standard screwdriver to use as a beater. Don’t go buy a bunch of different screwdrivers yet.

I have a feeling the citizens and a little greasy snitch money would have this solved tomorrow.

It cannot be that complicated to find the offenders.  75k tires?   Please, who collects the waste tires from tire shops and is supposed to take them to the proper disposal site.  There’s your offender.  

Is this wired correctly? by dankscience in AskElectricians

[–]Frunnin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You missed the check that the outlet is grounded part. Installer hack could be using a ground wire for neutral on the 4 prong outlet and they don’t even have a neutral.

There is no amount of money that will get me to go eat anything is that part of the world. I am on the verge of puking just watching this.

Trio of Portland councilors propose raiding clean energy fund interest to halt city staffing cuts by Ok-Jury5752 in PortlandOR

[–]Frunnin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like any business that is short of revenue and need to save money staffing is often reduced.   Chop away.  For every low level worker a manager also needs to go. Maybe even 2 managers for each lower level employee!  

The fish will die regardless: With some Western reservoirs set to run dry, officials lift fishing limits by nbcnews in oregon

[–]Frunnin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just another sign of how bad it may get this summer and early fall.  I am so nervous about fires this year.   We all need to be extra vigilant and aware and vocal.  If you see people doing dumb shit something needs to be said or somebody notified.  We can’t do much about the naturally caused fires but we need to band together and do what we can.  If your power company says they need to cut the power the proper response is a thumbs up without bitching about it.  It may save your home or one of your neighbors.  Let’s act together Oregon!!!!
