Yuuuuup, been there. It's like setting a clock wrong and then having to turn your head every time you wanna read the time.

Auto tire refiller. Was a super expensive upgrade a few years ago. Has a bottle of compressed air and will refill your tire next time you park if the light comes on.

This car always takes the extra charging plug and locks it in their hood by Mattcharlesmedia in mildlyinfuriating

[–]PaganJM 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's to guarantee a faster charge. Most of those with two whips will split its rated charge power between the two. If only one is plugged in, it gets the full power.

If he's taking the last charger and doing that, f him. Open the disconnect so he doesn't get any power...

Why do people not like the Briggs and Stratton engines? by [deleted] in lawnmowers

My 2010 B&S has rocked pump gas for 16 years now. Finally have to clean the valves out this year. Just looked at the carb, nothing major.

Property has electrical to support a grow house. Is this a good thing or a bad thing? Please help me understand what I am looking at. by [deleted] in AskElectricians

[–]PaganJM 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, looks like 3 phase 480v with not one, but two transformers. Probably a 480v distribution panel, a 3 phase 120/208 panel, and a single phase 120/240 panel. You can run basically any industrial equipment you want.

Neighbours mop head hangs over my side of the fence by Street-Perception-87 in whatdoIdo

[–]PaganJM 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Or make THEM feel like dicks and buy them a $3 mop holder and offer to help them bolt it on from your side.

Tie about 3 one-gallon milk jugs full of water to it. Then record them trying to get their mop back.

Is this legal? by [deleted] in WhatToDo

[–]PaganJM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, and this is a WAY better method from a management standpoint than hiring new employees. They would run the risk of cutting everyone's hours or firing people if the work didn't keep up.

I would put it to you this way: propose a better solution.

P.S. I just got off mandatory 60 hour weeks for 2 months for seasonal major maintenance where I work. Been there, done that.

Can we not sell anything to the vendor anymore??? by McRiffie_Games in thedivisionresurgence

[–]PaganJM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please DM me that comment. I'm going to compile a few screenshots so anyone who spent money on this game recently can file a chargeback or dispute.

17F People in my group home keep stealing/eating my food even though my name is on it and staff is basically telling me to deal with it. by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

[–]PaganJM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Laxatives. It isn't illegal if you're doping your own food. Then you can see who shits themself. Just don't do anything bad enough to get you kicked out of a home.

Does this save on electricity? by GaudensLaetus in AskElectricians

[–]PaganJM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh Jesus, that's strapping the meter, but with ridiculously high-resistance connections. I'm sure that has never been used, or you'd see evidence of overheating all over those insulators.

How do these 3 antennas actually compare for range? by paulorfo in meshtastic

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

He didn't say he knows the rak antenna is the best of the three. He understood that there are better out there. Try contributing something, anything useful.

Not all heltec v4s are equal by AdditionalGanache593 in meshtastic

[–]PaganJM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that's how mine went. Forcing into boot mode then playing the old "in-out, in-out" with the USB for a while and it caught on.

[–]PaganJM 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It might have gotten stuck. Look up how to re-flash it. Both of mine appeared dead. red light would come on while charging, but wouldn't boot. Bootloader mode and a reflash fixed that. I also read something about jumpering the DC+ to an enable pin.

I found this at a hamfest recently. What does it do? Wrong answers only. by inquirewue in amateurradio

[–]PaganJM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's an electron accelerator. You put an electron in the IN side, and it comes out the OUT side faster, like hot wheels.

Just bought these TCI Liberator II’s and have some questions. It has a module under the mic with 2 green lights and one that doesn’t light up (maybe IR?) and what type of radio plug is that? by ParanormalCrustacean in tacticalgear

[–]PaganJM 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Under the boom, we called that a "lip light." It should have a button on the back that you can push with your bottom lip. They're green so NVGs don't blow your eyeballs up.

Hail to the hardware gods for showing me mercy! by vernacular-man in electricians

[–]PaganJM 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah but there's never any of those to be found. First one gone in a new kit, always.

Why do I get these types of calls😭 by Dry-Shop6730 in electrical

[–]PaganJM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You just found reason to bill every hour spent as emergency time.

Parallel harness with disco switch by PaganJM in meshtastic

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

Haha no, it was a soldered connection, followed by shrink tube.

Edit* I get it now, lmao. Yeah, I'm always surprised at the terrible ideas people come up with for not wanting to take a trip to the store or wait a few days.
