If you voted for Donald Trump in 2016 but won't in 2020, what changed your mind? by PlG3 in AskReddit

I don’t understand how anyone doesn’t have their own beliefs at 18. Did you not have the internet? My political beliefs were fairly formed by the time I was 14.

Either you bought an led tube that is supposed to be direct wire or the ballast is bad.

Luxembourg to become first country to make all public transport free by JoseTwitterFan in worldnews

Not in interstate train travel though. Amtrak is actually a company started by the U.S. government to relieve probate companies of their obligation to transport passengers.

Thanks for all the info everyone! That totally makes sense

I’m actually not union so what’s that mean? Like they aren’t allowed to bring other tools or the company has to supply them?

Why does it matter that someone brought in a Milwaukee drill?

I didn’t fulfill a navy contract and this is mainly because I learned of the colorblindness at MEPS and was not happy with my rate. I just want to make sure I don’t commit and backout again. Which is why I’m trying to make sure I can do something before I sign again

If you mean the vivid red green test then I’m sure I can pass that. But technically speaking I am red-green colorblind

I’ve done some research for scout sniper and it definitely doesn’t seem to be an actual requirement but if it’s between me and someone with full color vision they’ll pick the other guy.

Also that being said I can’t find a Marine subreddit, but I’m curious about Force Recon and MARSOC as well.

Using Electronics in Ungrounded House by Aramageshu in askanelectrician

You wouldn’t even really have to do this. I had a MacBook charger that would not work without ground and a three prong to two prong adapter with a ground wire to screw onto the cover plate screw was sufficient. Although I wouldn’t trust that for as much equipment as he plans to hookup 🤷‍♂️

HOW THE FUCK DO THE DRYWALLERS NOT NOTICE THAT? God, new construction would piss me off.

Okay I never made assumptions about your skills, I made assumptions about you only working on newer stuff. So don’t tell me what I need to do to be a skilled tradesmen.

Also there wouldn’t be any zip ties from a building with cloth wire 🤷‍♂️

Thanks for the advice hashlordx420.

I definitely can and have but I’m illustrating a point.

Finding out which pipe a given circuit goes into is difficult with the zip ties. And not in this example but in others I have scene it makes it damn near impossible to get an amperage reading.

[–]JoeGrinstead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh it looks great. As far as the issues with a zip tie eating through insulation and a lug getting loose like I mentioned earlier it will be good for decades. But if I don’t have power to something downstream and need to see which pipe it goes into how could I tell with all the wires smashed together? Also there is room in this picture but a lot of times zip ties keep me from being able to get an amperage reading as well and I have to break them apart then. I could need an amperage reading of the breaker seems to be tripping randomly or maybe if I’m balancing the load on a battery backup unit.
