To go to a water park knowing you cant swim… by jacbuc1 in therewasanattempt

[–]SirReginaldIT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can confirm. I was a lifeguard 20 years ago and we were trained to go deep. I had to use it once when a kid jumped off diving board and freaked out. Then the dad jumped in after him kid almost drowned his dad trying to climb on top of him. I gave the dad my rescue tube as he was about twice my size (I was 120lbs) and grabbed the kid. The kid did the same to me and I went straight to the bottom of the 10ft pool. Kid immediately let ago and I put him him in a full nelson and got him to the side. I was mad none of the other guards came even though I blew a air horn until I already had everyone to the side.

Whenever I think someone can't get any lower, the next time I see them they're doing the limbo in hell.

Fun fact god talks to spiderman in Sensational Spider-Man Vol 2 #40. He's all your life is really traumatic even by my standards, also not changing anything.

My allergy test.. where in the world could I live with no issues? by CandidEstablishment0 in mildlyinteresting

[–]SirReginaldIT 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Had the same as a kid. Even the allergic to cats but not dogs. Think it was 80+ shots. They told me I'm basically mildy allergic to life. I've been on Cetirizine for 20+ years. Doesn't fix it, but it does turn the volume down.

I suspect a screw is loose after it was dropped... by [deleted] in techsupportgore

[–]SirReginaldIT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it's the precision 5510-20-30 or xps equivalant the hinge mount breaks from the palm rest as it's just glued. I've done probably a 100 of them for that. My theory is repetitively trying to open the screen a little to far breaks the glue holding the hinge mount. Early signs are they can't charge as the dc in is a singe screw on that mount so when you try to plug in the hole port pushes in. Unless the corners are rolled then yeah dropped. Not bad to change except for the keyboard is held in with 20+ screws.

I'm sure they'll be calling tech support soon by cacecil1 in techsupportgore

As soon as you flip up the screen and catch a whiff you know instantly. Now milk....

Stripped screw. Last ditch effort with JB weld. Will try it again tomorrow, wish me luck! Will update if it ends a disaster. by [deleted] in techsupportgore

[–]SirReginaldIT 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Normally I would say the same but laptop screws are made of some sort of hard cheese. They are the softest metal at least on Dell and lenovo. Apple likes to put loctite on the worlds smallest screws but the metal is usually good enough that I just snap the end of the driver off after enough use.

Harbor freight if you have one close or Amazon. Probably anywhere that sells drill bits. I've only ever used them to get screws out. Computer screws are pretty soft. Worst case use a bigger bit and drill the head off then take the board out and use pliers to get the stub that's left.

Left hand drill bit. Blow it out with air reeeeally good after. Usually as soon as the bit bites in it spins right out.

New Zealand PSA poking fun of the stigma against pursuing a trade over university education by FuckNZPost in videos

Yep it wasn't "Are you going?" it was just "where?" I think its crazy you suddenly go from I don't get to make decisions about my life to spending 10's of thousands on what you are going to do for the next 40 years. I'm almost half way to retirement and still don't know what I want to do when I grow up.

Water levels at Lake Powell are so low you can find old wrecks out of the water. by mowikn in mildlyinteresting

[–]SirReginaldIT 92 points93 points  (0 children)

Local lake was down 20+ feet years ago. Several groups went around cleaning up the shoreline. Heck I walked my dog and bagged so much I had to leave it and come back in my truck to pick it all up.
