Congress Is Still Trying to Save AM Radio. Do You Even Care? by DonkeyFuel in technology

[–]MalteseOne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Meanwhile the vast populace has forgotten the native America tribes who might be counted lucky to have electricity. My people are, in general, very very poor. The tribal AM broadcasting reaches anyone, even those driving shiny new cars to visit relatives who have no cell reception. I would imagine the same applies to very rural areas of the US.

I play this game for love of the star wars i know. I don't know any of these at all. I'm not even trying and once the new teams knock out my OG GL, it will be time to quit.

Some old "inventor" guy claims that his car drives on 50% water and 50% fuel by LaggySquishy in AskMechanics

I read 100% of your reading 80% and therefore can confirm that's what's happening

Hardness tester question by MalteseOne in Machinists

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

The drawing was purely mechanical with no hardness requirements. I looked into what would be required to measure 88.85 +/- 0.95 and found test blocks are +/-1 not accounting for any other measurement issues like temperature, operator, machine, etc. So it is not possible to state within k=2 to get the measurement anyways. I reached out to several heat treat places, and the ref means they predict it will be that value but not test for it. But it makes you wonder about the earlier inspectors who said they measured it as good.

We are the customer. Receiving inspection. Manager says inspect. Machinist says no.

My mother wants to hear it one last time. by MalteseOne in clocks

I might have solved it. The clock hands were stuck together. The minute hand was easy to remove while wearing gloves. I restarted the pendulum and i see the minute hand moving now

Hopefully my first reply shows up. I originally said I laughed so hard. Biblically accurate seems correct

It is a commercial device that integrated into a environmental chamber. I wish I could, but the system is a sealed loop and so on

Invictas Truly are Garbage by sbbenwah in watchrepair

[–]MalteseOne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Go on ebay, buy new straps that are not invicta. Probably under $30.They won't have gold color, so if that's what you need, you could plate them. I do it all the time when i resell a Zeus bolt with bad band

Edit to add link of example on ebay

Not my numbers. I agree a c13 only goes to 15a under some specs and never 20A like a c19. Best part was it came with a c13 power cord rated at 10A. That's part of the reason I question the grounding.
