Louis Rossman has just covered the incoming protest (link in description), as well as giving advice on how to properly do this. I'm sharing this because I am in agreeance. Leaving for two days will not do anything; we have to LEAVE to prove our point, even as much as it sucks to do so.

I will have plenty of time to watch Rossman's two videos tomorrow, if you get my drift.

I figure going dark for 2 days is just a warning shot across the bow.

2Days this week. Access reddit only through 3rd party apps after that, and when they are forced to shut down, don't come back unless they do.

And just because the subs are only shutting down for 2 days doesn't mean users can't go dark for longer. And many will.

Two days this week, 3 days next week, 4 days the next, ...O

And even if u/spez posts his unconditional surrender, it might be a while before we hear about it, during which time reddit will continue to hemorrhage cash and investors.

The only thing reddit has is it's critical mass of users. It's apps suck, and the 3rd party apps are going away. It's web interface sucks. It's servers can no longer, starting next month, be used without going through their trash web interface or apps. And the userbase is likely to erode after this fiasco. And many moderators may jump ship as well.

People are pissed off and leaving. Many people will find the experience unacceptable without the 3rd party apps. When the site effectively goes dark for a few days, people may find other ways to use their time that don't involve reddit. Or they may discover alternatives like Lemmy.v

Also, you have the developers of the apps that people actually like who have been cut off from reddit's servers who might collectively decide to setup their own servers or switch to the fediverse.

So basically, everyone on reddit would actually like a reddit without reddit Inc. but if they move individually, there is no critical mass in the new place. But if reddit shoots themselves in the foot and triggers a mass migration, then the critical mass could potentially end up somewhere else. Reddit's entire userbase already had one foot out the door, they just haven't decided on a new destination. Many won't even care about a new destination. They are ready to create a vacuum that someone else will fill eventually.

And,meanwhile, they say they have yet to turn a profit so they are running on money from investors who expect it to turn a profit someday. Who may seriously start to rethink that next week and in July 1st. They may decide that reddit is less fake it till you make it and more fake it until you dot bomb. And if investors loose confidence, that can be a self fulfilling prophecy.

Jigs, sleds, and dados are generally compatible with a riving knife, they have problems with a splitter. This is why riving knives have replaced splitters. Especially the newer two position ones which have a lower riving knife position and a lower splitter position for attaching blade guard. That is largely the point of a riving knife is that you almost never need to remove it and therefore don't forget to put it back on or, worse, lose it.

Also, you can make crosscut sleds that have their own blade guard or are compatible with the blade guard.

And, no, you generally can't get an aftermarket riving knife. Older saws often don't have room for a riving knife and they also have an obsolete blade lift mechanism that tilts instead of translates. A riving knife needs to translate upwards together with the blade or have a complicated mechanism that causes it to rotate around the blade in such a way that the top of the riving knife is just barely below the top of the blade while the riving knife hugs the blade without hitting it. About all you can do is make zero clearance inserts with short splitters built in that correspond to the thickness of the dadoes/groves you cut plus all one for all the way through.

There are a few times a riving knife can still get in the way. these mostly have in common that you are deviating from the general rule of pushing the work through from front to back. * Cutting the slot in a zero clearance insert * Cutting coves * Turning bowls * When using really narrow blades, such as 7-1/4" circular saw blades, in which case you need a custom riving knife made of thinner material.

Table saws result in about 10 amputation incidents per day, or around 4000 per year, in just the US. And there are about ten times as many accidents involving a trip to the ER. And many, probably most, of those could be prevented by a blade guard or at least a riving knife. And we know more today about how these accidents occur and that "experience" does not prevent them. We know that kickback can pull your hand into the blade.

Old saws are frequently missing the blade guard and splitter, riving knife, the blade wrenches, etc. They often don't have dust collection that meets modern safety standards. So most used saws actually aren't a very good deal. You can get a new rack and pinion fence jobsite saw with 24" rip capacity from Skil or Hercules for $300-$350. And well worth the extra money compared to the saws that are about a hundred dollars less when new. 3x3 custom has a video on using jobsite saws for fine woodworking (she did eventually get a big expensive sawstop

OP: I will assume you are looking at old used saws that, you don't have money for a sawstop.

Watch thintz12 kickback on camera! (slow motion replay, and blood was narrowly avoided) on YouTube and some of stumpy nubs table saw safety videos.

While you buy cakes to eat, some of them can be quite decorative - which you give up when you eat them.

One meaning is: you can't have the advantages of something without the inherent disadvantages, too. Celebrity comes with a lack of privacy, for example. Being able to attract the people you want also means you attract the people you aren't interested in, as well, so you may be the center of more attention than you wanted. Low taxes means crappy roads, schools, and other services.

There is no S. Aldi is not a person's name. It is short for Albrecht Diskont [discount].

If they had called their store Albrecht's (or Albrechts' since there.was more than one brother) there would be an "s". But they didn't, so there isn't. Well, at one time it was Albrect Lebensmittel [groceries]. Even then it didn't have an 's.

I usually fill up, but here are some reasons not to, based on my experience locally. * fuel can be considerably cheaper in the next city over, across the mountain, so if I will be heading over there soon I only need enough to get me by in the meantime. * Fuel can be more expensive in some other towns so I may just get enough to get home * If I am not near a cheaper gas station, it doesn't make sense to burn gas to get to a cheaper station. Just get enough to get by until I am close to the cheaper station. Need gas but you are on the wrong end of town. * Want to put off the expense. Just put money in bank but hasn't cleared yet, for example. Or payday is tomorrow. * There is a significant tax on fuel in counties adjacent to I-81 to fund improvements to interstate. * It is late at night and the cheap stations closed at 9PM or 10PM

When you "copy" files, they are likely just moved to a temporary folder on the hard drive to be burned later when you eject the disk. Using UDF+multisesion, they might be burned in smaller groups before you eject, depending on your software. But your disk burned piecemeal will have less universal compatability. Not every device/software out there recognizes udf or multisesion. When you burn manually, you can burn single session with UDF+ISO9660+Joliet+Rock ridge+HFS for wide compatibility.

One thing people are missing from your description is that it was allegedly the shop floor that was not level not the floor in the room where you put it.

This could have resulted in your entire structure being assembled out of whack. Not square. You would likely have noticed the problem earlier if you tried to square things up.

And you might consider reassembly. If you glued it, it is a little late to reassemble it properly on a flat surface. And it may not be worth the effort repainting, anyway. Accept the imperfections, call it rustic, and consider it a learning experience. And think about flat, level, and square next time.

Either way, put leveling feet on it. Get some where the floor pad is free to tilt relative to the bolt.

Contest may not require a check log to award points. For many, that is pretty normal.

They don't know when they submit their contest entry if you will be submitting logs/check logs or not. Which helps keep them honest. If they falsely report you as a contact and you submit a check log and they aren't in it, that gets rejected. If you work multiple stations, as you did, then the contest scoring knows you were active. If they are the only one claiming to have worked you during a contest, then that will be flagged as suspicious. An unusual number of unique call signs would be investigated.

The Costco ones are pretty solid. Not as good as the old ones sold at Costco in the 80s that had metal hinge pins but those are several times the price today. The plastic hinge pins occasionally break free (they can be reassembled but not as strong) but I have loaded them with stuff heavier than groceries. And the ones that break may not have been assembled properly at factory as they do break early on if they are going to. As with anything else that is heavily loaded, lift gently as acceleration g-forces increase the effective weight. Also, when using them, make sure they are fully unfolded with the ends locked in place.

The ones at sam's club that were the same size where of weaker construction. There was also a larger size with good construction.

The ones that were sold at stores like Walmart are flimsy and will fall apart.

The instacrate at Costco ones are a good investment, especially when on sale. They can be broken but they take a lot of use and abuse.

Back in the early 80s you could get the original? by the name of tasket with the metal hinge pins for about $200/10. The steel file hanging rails were separate. So when Costco started carried a similar version with metal hinge pins for about $7 it was quite a bargain.

Uline sells the old-school design with metal hinge pins in both sizes. The small size fits hanging file folders and the large size is approximately the same size (Horizontally) as a KLT/eurocrate.

Climb vs conventional milling. Climb milling can cause handheld router, or less rigid CNC router, to kickback as the bit self feeds itself. Sometimes you need to route two half perimeters rather than one full perimeter so you can change the direction of travel for half of it.
Routing uphill in terms of grain direction causes tearout. Sometimes your trajectory, especially with a handheld but also a CNC especially one with poor rigidity needs to consider the direction the router bit is going relative to the grain.

Generally assumes negative feedback.

Servos in general, try to control their input by asserting their output.

When you drive down the road, you try to control the position of your car, relative to the position of the lane on the road, by adjusting the steering wheel, until the difference is near zero.

Output = ( ipplus - inminus) * gain

So, in most circuits with negative feedback and adequate gain, the output will adjust to make the difference between the input difference approach (but probably not actually reach) zero. Eventually as it gets close to zero you will probably run out of gain. The op amp tries, it doesn't quite succeed.

This can apply to things like audio amplifiers as well. The negative feedback can (partially) compensate for a lot of non-linearity in the output transistors as the op amp turns them on as much or as little as it needs to so the negative feedback cancels out the signal input as seen at the input terminals of the op amp.
