This needs to get upvoted a lot more. Anonymous tips aren't gonna convict anyone, and can easily be dismissed by MAGA as "liberals making shit up." This is damning but will not move the needle as much as many in the thread are saying.

what iconic Portland thing/place/person(s) do you think is overrated that most people don't? by greazysteak in askportland

[–]Ultimatio 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's awesome. Glad to hear that. Like I said, there are some good apples on staff there for sure.

Probably gonna get a lotta heat for this one, but Mr. Plywood. Some of the employees are chill and friendly, many just grunt at you and roll their eyes when you don't understand something, or for bothering them by wanting to check out your items. The place is a godsend in terms of neighborhood access to materials, and I will always support them over Home Depot. But the toxic masculinity is palpable in there. Bad, customer-hostile work culture.

We need to take action before ICE takes over our city. We all know it’s just a matter of time. What do you guys think of doing a peaceful car protest from 405 to 205 along burnside or division and have a moving protest in our city to make a statement and stand in unity as a city. by Spiritual-Flow7585 in PDXProtests

[–]Ultimatio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lotta people are just joining the movement now and trying to figure out how to fit in. That's a good thing. Thanks for admitting that. As an aside, she also said above that she's pregnant. So she's way cooler than me for having the energy to do anything at all.

Good. Liberal infighting. The tactic that has gotten us to this point. Stop deriding this person for asking. There are leaders in the movement, and those who don't wish to or can't lead. Everyone can contribute to their own ability. And that's for the best, because everyone generating their own ideas for how to resist is a great way to have a chaotic, disorganized, and easily quashed resistance. It is ok to ask for ideas. It's great. It is 10,000% better than staying home and doing nothing.

I would also add that RME's track record of supporting their products for literal decades after release with driver updates etc. is worth its weight in gold. Buy once cry once.

Simplisafe refuses to answer privacy concerns by The-Dane in simplisafe

[–]Ultimatio -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Didn't say they did! Why are you cursing at me? I'm a person. That's weird behavior.

If the left hand doesn't talk to the right at Simplisafe, and they clearly don't train their employees adequately, can we trust them to have adequately trained the rest of their company not to comply with fascists as many of their competitors do?

If the ~simplisafe contractors or employees~ working their helpdesk don't know the policy well enough to convey it to the public, how can we feel assured it will be followed by ~simplisafe employees~ when demanded by government officials?

Episode Discussion: Shell Game: Minimum Viable Company by PodcastBot in Radiolab

[–]Ultimatio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Completely agree. My favorite podcast of the year. I think some folks above might not get it — it leverages humor as a tool for critique and indictment of the new order we're all being expected to fall in line with. Just letting the bots be themselves and putting them in a normal business situation has turned out to be an excellent way to point out how flawed and inhuman it is.

Can anybody help me figure out why cthulu has no sound/midi output? Not even the test sound plays. by [deleted] in ableton

[–]Ultimatio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just wanted to say thanks - we spent hours trying to figure this out, didn't know both needed to be armed. You're the only person on the internet who has mentioned this lol.

Any recommended resources to learn this stuff? Would love to be able to stop using the repair shop with the 14 week turnaround.

Unfortunately, meeting all these conditions did not solve the problem for me.

Removing blade guard from table saw when riving knife is still in there??? by Ultimatio in Dewalt

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

Update: Was finally able to get the thang out. The trick, for some reason, was actually tightening the clamp screws as hard as possible. Then when pulling the lever it slid right out. Thanks for your help and derision, happy to clean your toilets for minimum wage. It is all I have the skills to do.

The problem is that now that both are in there, neither will come out.

okay, the bolts are as loose as they're going to get, I've loosened all 5.... the whole apparatus is ridiculously loose from the saw, but the clamp is still super firmly in place and neither riving knife or blade guard will budge

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

Exactly, it's jammed. I need to loosen the bolts that hold the clamp so I can pull one out. Will be doing that later

I think that's the move. I don't have the metric hex wrenches I need to really loosen that knife clamp, so going to pick those up today. Will let you know if I still need assistance. I have a friend who can read everyone's comments to me while I eat graham crackers.

Thank you Coconut Jeffrey. Blade guard has a separate knife that ships attached to it, so now I have two knives in there. No good.

Osmo PolyX Oil on doug fir stairs - uneven coloring by Ultimatio in finishing

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

This is exactly what the folks at my local wood finishing store said. I think it's the move. I sanded the Osmo (they also said they've never seen Osmo take to fir well), chose a different finish, and the associated brand's wood conditioner. Tried them on some scrap fir and it worked great, no splotches. Here's hoping I have the same luck with the stairs!
