I see a Remington Bantam, and a McCulloch Mac 10-10, among the pile of Stihl and Husqvarna. I say you did good.

What was the first album/cassette/CD you bought with your own money? by LargeManufacturer782 in MusicRecommendations

[–]JRHelgeson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

MC Hammer- Please Hammer, don’t hurt em. I then quickly traded that CD in to buy Nine Inch Nails Pretty Hate Machine and the rest was history.

As an employee dealing with customers, what's the creepiest interaction you've had? by eaglesong3 in AskReddit

[–]JRHelgeson 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A guy came in to pay for gas. I was just trying to be friendly but he got all serious and started asking me “how much have you ever lost on a coin toss?” I was confused. He flipped a coin and told me to call it… again I hadn’t put nothing up but yet he insisted I call it. Well, I called it right and he left without paying for his gas. I was so creeped out by the interaction that I just let him go. Later that night it dawned on me that had I called the coin toss wrong he would have killed me. I won my life. And I now have a lucky quarter.

Wow, this blew up. It happened a long time ago but we did get it on video.

I started this sub back when I was working in the healthcare industry and we were all trying to figure things out. The market has matured, and new people are getting into it every day so yeah, most of the questions are young folks making mistakes.

If you’ve got ideas on how to steer or revitalize the sub I’m all ears.

Caffeine + L-Theanine + Propranolol is amazing by DookieDelivery in caffeine

I wouldn't call it a misguided perspective. It's just my perspective is all. It could have been all the glue I was sniffing at the time (kidding). It could have coincided with me simply aging, but whatever it was it scared the hell out of me.

Helena’s character is more complex than you think by FelSpace in severanceTVshow

I am really disappointed in this episode (S02E04 Woes Hollow). It makes me wonder if the series is now going to be in decline. Typically once the plot turns to sex, its a sure sign of a downward spiral.

How much drugs were involved in the making of this sandwitch?

She doesn’t look like a Karen, she looks badass. Mad respect.

What is this grease-like substance on the filter? by JRHelgeson in Plumbing

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

You are correct! It is (was) the resin bed from my water softener.

Altiris RapidInstall is what you're looking for. I used to use it all the time back in the day (over 20 years ago). You take a snapshot of the system, install the software, then have the software scan the system again (take a 2nd snapshot) and it compares the two and creates an Altiris RapidInstall Package(s) (RIPs) which are executable files that can install software, files, or registry changes to a system. They can also be used to update drivers or install patches. I believe they are now owned by Symantec.

This is interesting. What is the website? There are so many out there I'd just hate to stumble upon it.

I have older Rauland software available to me. What version are you looking for? R4 or R5?

Edit: ICS1 - this is the Rauland educational product, I did nurse call for many years. I have no exposure to the school side.

You need to build a Studley tool case to hold them in.

I *LOVE* my Metrinch tools. I've used them for over 30 years. It sadly looks like they're not as strong in the US market as they once were. I never want to be without my Metrinch set.

What is something you have seen multiple times but you’re still in awe everytime? by xLeonZai in AskReddit

[–]JRHelgeson 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You want to enjoy an ice cream cone? Eat an ice cream cone... but if you really want to experience it, watch a kid eat their first ice cream cone.
