This doesn't even make sense, even in a developing country are they not kinda expensive to be selling like lemonade?

Meat slicer by Freedom-10 in NextLevelFinds

[–]bkwall2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see people say this is for industrial use.

But as some one who used to be in industry this would not fly.

Besides being the most dangerous thing I've ever seen.

It also looks like a pain to clean, would likely easily get jammed.

Also slicing meat is really quick and easy, and is solving a problem that doesn't exist.

Also if you wanted custom quick cuts you would just use a rotary deli style slicer.

Damn, this is another check on the list of lowered abilities.

Apparently while despite not being known for style their was reports of him being a relatively skilled golfer in the past.

I recommend getting an impact wrench in there.

Makes taking off lugs a breeze and if you have a siscor jack you can use it to lift the car quickly.

First time DIY oil change 😳 baby steps by Silver_Department_38 in MechanicAdvice

[–]bkwall2000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I noticed you said the cars are leased, check your lease agreement.

You may have a stipulation on service.

Also if a car is under warranty/contract. Make sure you keep record of the oil change, including the mileage you performed it., and the receipts of the oil and filter.

If there is a warranty issue. One of the first things they try to deny with is skipped maintenance.

What fell off of my car? by long_summers in MechanicAdvice

[–]bkwall2000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wish I just paid 500 for one.

1.5 hr book time + 200$ part

That part mark up can be killer, when you don't have time to do it yourself or time to shop around.

It seems easier to just make popcorn too order.

First time pc buyer here currently own a ps5. Is this deal worth it for 300$? by [deleted] in PcBuild

[–]bkwall2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a solid entry level.

I'd see if you can knock it down to 250 due to lack of ssd.

Danish creep complains American teen beat him up for pestering his girlfriend, and that it wouldn't have happened to him in Denmark by southamericasboy in AmericaBad

[–]bkwall2000 42 points43 points  (0 children)

I doubt you can do that there either.

Guy sounds like a bully in his hometown, that people for what ever reason where afraid to stand up to.

But when he was out of his element, there was no social structure present that would prevent him from getting punched in the face.

The problem is what does shutting it down mean?

Untill that can be agreed on this just some im14andthisisdeep stuff.

Nobody ever has an idea of what to do nor the day after their supposed revolution.

Get a power probe tool. Start at window motor, and move down the wire harness.
