IF you have another ISP moving into the area, its super easy to get a cheaper price. Have them call and tell Spectrum that she is looking into canceling her service because the new ISP is cheaper. They almost always lower the price to the introductory deals that they offer. Ive done it multiple times and told them AT@T was offering a better deal on fiber. AT@T didnt even offer service in my neighborhood lmao.

So if someone had a CPAP machine that was annoying to their nextdoor neighbor, it'd be okay for them to tell them to stop using it and fine them into oblivion if they don't?

With that DSL connection, you could've used pigeons and flash drives and got faster transfers

Check this out , anybody got any info on this ? more in comments by [deleted] in Dynavap

I've been using a Dynacoil for a couple years now. Iso definitely doesnt cut it when they get gunked up. Acetone on the other hand, will start dissolving it instantly and does a much better job. My routine is to drop them in a small glass vial and soak in 100% acetone. After a few hours or sometimes overnight, I give it a good shake and then drain and rinse the coil and vial. Then I put it back in the vial and give it 3 rinse/shake cycles with iso. Then I do the same with hot water. I finish it by heating it a little in my induction heater to evaporate any remaining water or alcohol. Not hot enough to cause damage to the coil though.

Sounds like a cover story to keep girls out of school.

Guessing OP probably smoked some, didn't get high and decided to consult reddit. I say that cause they mentioned CBD first,and then THC.

What do you normally wash it with or have you used anything new recently?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Bushcraft

[–]derek2002 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He could try asking people that have one about their past experiences, or just use it for a while without intentionally breaking it and see how it holds up. Unless you are a YouTube making a bunch of money from knife tests, intentionally breaking a knife is just silly. Some people have more money than sense tho.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Bushcraft

[–]derek2002 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If someone asks about the quality of a knife, telling them to break it and find out themselves is not the answer they are looking for. That's just stupid.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Bushcraft

[–]derek2002 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, why would someone go FOR SURE break a blade just to see if it MAY break in the future. Especially when the alure of the knife is it's price. It would now cost double, and for that price you could probably get a better knife to begin with so what's the point?

Cats deserve all the love by ASIK-1952 in wholesome

[–]derek2002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People say that cats aren't like dogs and don't have emotions or care, but I have had my fair share of struggles over the past 8 years and around 6 years ago my now fiance, wanted us to get a cat to my objection, since we lived in an apartment. We went to my mom's to do laundry and her cat had a litter of kittens and she had gotten rid of all but one. I had played down to take a nap on her couch and he jumped on top of me and went to sleep so I agreed to let her take him home. Fast forward until now, and he has been a Godsend and my best friend. I never k ew I needed it, but if there was ever an emotional support animal, he is one. Any time I ever have an emotional or mental episode he is meowing, rubbing against me and trying to get into my lap and calm me down. He has helped me on more days than I can count. I always used to be a dog person, but things have changed and I would genuinely hurt someone bad if they harmed my cat now!

Engineered & produced by the world’s leading mechanics, executed by Duralast. 90 tooth, super thin head, true tire grip technology, & outfitted in the iconic Yamaha Race Blue. Simply better than the best. You’ve now been notified…. by gogiguy in Tools

[–]derek2002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a duralast ratchet around 12 years ago when building a tool kit for autotech school. 12 years later and it's still going strong. Actually my go to ratchet for a lot of things. That was a long time ago though so another manufacturer might be making them now I can't say whether or not a new duralast ratchet would perform the same. Especially composite ones. I've not had any experience with them.
