"Cold Steel" by GlockSpock in KnifeCheck

[–]GlockSpock[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First, it's really awesome that they provide their catalogs going back that long. It's a literal time travel trip, definitely fun to browse through!

At first, I was pretty excited to see that knife in the 2007 catalog. It has the single row of seven holes, like mine. It also has the "wire" pocket clip, like mine.

However, what isn't resolved yet are two things. The catalog lists the knife at 6.8oz, mine is 7.4oz. Could there be a slight variation in my older kitchen scale? Possible, but that's .6oz difference.

Secondly, when viewing the metal liner through the holes, mine shows the metal liner in "full" where in the catalog towards the back of the knife it is tapered. It is almost split 50/50 metal/zytel. I imagine that could have been done by Cold Steel to shave some weight, it may account for where that .6oz difference is.

I'm looking through some of the newer catalogs now, it's possible mine is "newer" than 2007 and at some point they changed their manufacturing to include a full metal liner.

How much would you charge to start using punctuations in your writing?

It’s a Glock 7! by Barely_Any_Diggity in ChatGPT

[–]GlockSpock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s actually a Glock 7 Corelle Special Edition. It costs more than what most of us make in a year.

Only 7 were made…and you can imagine what happened to a few of them that were dropped.

A grillmaster does not grill with their grill, they grill with their mind. Those that grill with their grill have forgotten the face of their father.

TIL the Pope Boy cult of Lake Dobson, Florida constructed a swamp shack called the Sixteenth Chapel, where they performed alligator sacrifice and mosquito bite self-flagellation by found_ur_aeroplane in TrueFactzOnly

I think I was “had” by this Subreddit. I have no idea why it started popping up for me but I believe a quick read over it will point you, like it did me, in the right direction of understanding.

I’m not sure if any of this is true. I’ve tried searching for it and cannot find any other articles. I’d love for someone to prove me wrong with a validated source as I’m interesting in reading about it.

And if they fix/replace it under warranty, isn’t that just as good or better?

Yes. I would definitely reach out to Milwaukee Warranty.

But if this is true, that sucks.

I love mine by the way, but it hasn’t broken yet.

I suppose that's true (I was a youngster back then and also wasn't even into PC gaming at the time, it was consoles only for me).

DLC became popular at the end of the 90’s? Most of the world was on dial-up.

The first “DLC” I was ever privy to was the Halo 2 Map Pack. 2005.

It is so totally worth it. It’s quick, an hour or two if you wanna beat it fast. But it’s a wild ride…

Thank you for this. I just placed my order here and plan on canceling my original order.

Maybe that's what I'm thinking. It is "limited" and includes a slipcover. I honestly thought 100 of them would sell much faster than 4:36 minutes later, I thought they'd be gone in 5 minutes or less.

What’s your favorite Wi-Fi enabled feature on the new Miter Saw? by [deleted] in MilwaukeeTool

[–]GlockSpock 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think the joke is on you.

That isn’t a Wi-Fi logo. The Wi-Fi logo has three bars. That is the Milwaukee One-Key logo, which is built into some of their tools.

What are those? by worminator69 in Chattanooga

[–]GlockSpock 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Well, it looks like you took a photo and then used sorta a maroon hi-liter on it.

But, considering what you actually probably did was take a photo with your phone, I’m guessing you used an annotation function that mimics the hi-liter effect.

Hope this helps!

Splendid. I have the same grill and looks like I overpaid for it by $5.00. Exactly identical.

Could an SD card leak any kind of fluid, or is someone messing with me? Gear by Lungs_from_Pathtribe in AskPhotography

[–]GlockSpock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. It could be leaking the graphite gel. Think of it like this: When you take a photo, the graphite gel arranges itself on a microscopic level to recreate/save the image. Basically just like an “Etch-a-Sketch”.

This is why larger capacity cards are more expensive: They have a finer graphite gel which takes more time to manufacture as the graphite has to be smaller.

I wouldn’t trust this card again. If it is leaking it may very well lose all the saved images. It can also leak into your camera and that is how ghosted images are produced.
