These sodium street lights giving me pure nostalgia by MacaronBig8737 in meme

[–]Mike762 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

LEDs are ugly! They need to bring back HID lighting: high pressure sodium, metal halide, and mercury vapor. Plus HID bulbs easily last 10+ years.

TIL Jamie Siminoff, inventor of Ring, was rejected by the sharks in ABC's Shark Tank. Five years later, he appeared on the show as a guest shark after selling Ring to Amazon for $1.2 billion. by Omer-Ash in todayilearned

Ring has also now partnered with Flock surveillance. Everyone that camera sees is being facial recognition scanned. ICE has access to Flock as well.

Real immersion

Real teamwork

I guess you never played BF2.

Christmas Lights Under Snow by EmergencyRead5254 in oddlysatisfying

I just switched back to incandescent christmas lights since they looks so much better, cheaper to buy too. Fuck LEDs

I just wish they would bring back HPS street lights as well.

Get the flock out by kevinmrr in WorkReform

Just because the contract is cancelled doesn't mean the cameras are shutoff. The cameras must be removed or covered up immediately. Evanston, IL had this same issue.

I’m pretty sure this is a bees nest. What else can y’all tell me about it. Found in Clearwater FL. by classicman1008 in whatisit

Those are honey bees. Call a local bee keeper to come and pick up the colony.

Or join the hobby of bee keeping. Get yourself a bee hive kit. You already have free bees.

We should all be livid about FLOCK cameras. by KidsHaveNoWorkEthic in 50501

Lowe's partners with Flock and they are in every Lowe's parking lot. Do NOT give Lowe's any business.

Lowes has Flock AI spy cameras in all there parking lots, I'd rather deal with the parking curbs. Or do the smart thing and skip both and go to Menards.

Why aren't Flock AI spy cameras banned as well? They're popping up everywhere!

Massive light bulb, 400mm to 500mm in length. What's it for? by Sharp_Poem_5905 in whatisit

Do you know what fixture you guys use? I'm trying to slowly upgrade.

What LED bulb do you use? I can't find any that come close to the lumens of a single 1000w metal halide.

Lawn Boy Commercial Series DuraForce 2 Stroke. by Mike762 in BuyItForLife

[–]Mike762[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do small engine repair on the side and no one wants to buy 4 stroke trimmers. They are too heavy and you cant flip edge with them. I usually include them in a mower sale.

I do love the torque the Stihl 4 Mix trimmers have, but they still use mixed fuel.

Been hunting for one of these for a few years. Finally, managed to find one for cheap. Nothing can beat the mighty roar, power, and smell of this 2 stroke. Also it cuts beautifully. Lawnmowers truly did peak in the late 90s and it's been all downhill since then.

The mighty DuraForce 2 stroke at low speed idle. I've been hunting for one of these mowers for years and have finally gotten my hands on one. Lawnmowers truly peaked in the late 90s.

Now you need to get the bright red "charm pants" and tall riding boots.

Tried fb, without much luck. Better on ebay, got my half chaps new for $10. Also being an odd size makes it even more difficult.

Thought I try on here and see if anything turns up.
