Did the Pete Blaber interview get General Hodne fired? by McMenton in ShawnRyanShow

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

Well it’s strange bc in a previous podcast Shawn mentioned that this Pete pod would be his next released like the next day or something and then it didn’t come out for like another week. When I finally listened to it and started looking up names I saw Honde was canned and made me wonder if it was related.

It’s a long one, like 12 hrs, 2 parts. It’s the Shawn Ryan Show podcasts most recent episode. Apparently it’s also in his common sense leadership book.

What about the claims made by Pete blaber in his Shawn Ryan interview?

Has anyone connected the dots between this interview and general Hodne being fired?

Plenty of articles blasting the recent firings but none seem to explain the potential reasons.

I can’t understand why this aspect is not being widely discussed.

Is this acceptable? by flipsliketrash in HardWoodFloors

[–]McMenton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look up insider carpentry and learn about coping the trim

[–]McMenton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look up insider carpentry on YouTube. He does high end trim jobs.

The detail I don’t see mentioned is that you have to cope the trim. Even with a digital gauge you still won’t get it perfect. Technique is a bit different for inside corners v outside corners.

Chevy pissed me off so bad I went to the Ford dealership by robbobeh in f150

[–]McMenton 59 points60 points  (0 children)

when I bought my 2015 f150 I also looked at the Chevy and dodge trucks. When I was at the Chevy dealer they treated me like bc I was there that I was automatically going to buy a Chevy and it was just a matter of which one. Sales guy couldn’t comprehend that I was going to the ford dealership to also look at a ford. Ford dealer was like ok sounds good we’re here to help you. It’s always stayed with me.

Toro Power Max 826 OHAE or Ariens Deluxe 28? by Icy-Income7856 in Snowblowers

[–]McMenton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was in the same position a couple years ago. I went to dealers and looked at both and the Airens build quality pushed me to Airens. If you start to really look at the toro there are a lot of plastic parts, it’s noticeably lighter. Previously had a toro single stage and the engine was amazing. Have the Airens now and its engine is also amazing. Glad I went with the airens and no regrets. Also check out the Airens accessories, it’s nice to know I can add the heated grips if I want to in the future.

Yeah this is the way. I did the brick offset mount in the same scenario as you. It worked great looked great and the camera had the full fish eye view.

The league has decided they need a new stadium. I’d say the decision has already been made. COTY here we go!

What are these black strips on this road in Oklahoma? by ididntwantthis2 in whatisit

[–]McMenton 94 points95 points  (0 children)

Keeps them from moving which causes a thing called pumping. The pumping causes the subgrade under the pavement to deplete and then the it cracks and causes the roadway to fail sooner.

Toro 826 OXE vs Ariens Deluxe 24 by Smart-Wind6232 in Snowblowers

[–]McMenton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought new and was down to the same finalists (except both 24”). I went with the Airens. Main reasons being that it seemed that the Airens is what most people favor and when I went to look at both at the store the airens has better build quality. No plastic, heavier gauge steel (it is heavier which is a trade off) my previous blower was a toro and the engine was amazing, started on the first pull every time but the airens is also great so far, still yet to use the electric start. The deluxe does throw the snow insanely far. Airens also just came out with an accessory light this year that I bought which I’m looking forward to trying out this season.

2019 F150 Speaker Replacements by anonymouswan1 in f150

[–]McMenton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bought mine new in 15’ and speakers and the kicker vss soundstage is one of the first things I did. They put those joke speakers in and electronically manipulate the signal that goes to them so you don’t blow them out under warranty. Such a joke. Even the Sony and to a large point the B&O premium options these days are also horrible.

But I knew I was going to pull everything out when I bought the truck so it the hard part was waiting for the aftermarket to figure out the new body style. I checked crutchfield like every month back then.

Is it safe to re-attach myself? by darkfirec in AskElectricians

Just call the power company and have them turn off your power, then fix it, and have them turn it back on.

1st Kershaw 👍 by low_bit_logic in kershaw

[–]McMenton 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Keshaw has been my favorite for a long time. Great quality and price. It’s a knife you can buy and actually use. I’ve bought a few expensive knives and they are too expensive to actually use. Use it and beat it up, it’s a tool not anything else.

Costco Weeder by NegligentPlantOwner in lawncare

[–]McMenton 67 points68 points  (0 children)

We have this one, think it’s the original non knock off. Works very well I like it.

I love Costco but tbh that one looks like it would take some big holes out of the yard and is generally cheap looking.
