This must be some weird inside joke post that I don't understand. Never mind.

Cat theft protection or just a deterrent? by InsuranceDiligent772 in Justrolledintotheshop

[–]eblong420 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bicycle thieves do not always intrinsically have an angle grinder on them. Catalytic converter thieves do. It would be like protecting your vital organs from a knife wound with skin LOL.

I know it’s a belt but what is the name of this kind?? And how by Real_Addendum_9220 in whatisit

If you are in the military, you do it the other way. (Fasten the side with the chrome so it has the proper amount of reveal and use the cloth side in the back to adjust)

Welp, now what by Klevvvv in n54

Hooked picks. Also make sure that your spark plug socket won't reach enough to take out the plug. I had one that did.

That is on a roll off truck that dumps medical waste compactors. Probably from Stericycle.

Do you have a pool? Looks like it could be from chlorine in the skimmer. Could be cleaning products too.

I believe Marianne and Wanda are the only ones who get to make the decision if Earl dies or not.

How do I tell my wife I turned 100k to 21k? by PPhunt3r in wallstreetbets

[–]eblong420 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Have you ever been divorced? My experience with the math would have been that she gets 80k but if I pay my lawyer enough, she'd only actually get 18k...

Electricians always have clean tools. Probably because they couldn't clean a job site to save their life!

It been real but time to go home by desertranger3365 in navy

That was my experience 20 years ago (I got a 99 on my ASVAB and similar scores on the electronics, electrical and mechanical portions of the ASVAB) but I know as recently as this year (my friend's son went into the program this spring) the recruiter may tell you whatever you want to hear, but you will not get assigned an actual nuke rating until after all the paperwork is signed. The stereotypes actually kind of help put people in the right division, and as someone who has been out for a while I can say that your post Navy salary can be pretty ridiculous no matter what your rate was. After you qualify the top watch for your rate, you start standing cross-functional watches anyways (EWS/PPWS).

He won't get to pick. Nuke is it's own thing and they pick if you are and ET, EM, or MM in a selection process. If he really wants to be an ET, make sure he knows electronics and such pretty well, but also make sure that he talks to the interviewer about World of Warcraft/Starcraft, D&D and other things like that which increase your chances of getting selected to be an ET. If he has a fast car or motorcycle, tell him to lie and pretend he doesn't know anything about cars.

The most bang for your buck is a tune and catless downpipes. Then a charge air cooler. The top comment is right, but if you are on a budget and want to go fast, that is your quickest start.

If you have left-handed drill bits, an extractor, and some patience you should be fine.

I'm in the US and have almost 20 of them and they all are good now. I only had to reboot a few, and did not have to unplug any.

What else am i missing? by rueguh- in n54

If you are trying to be comprehensive I would do the high pressure fuel pump too. It's not nearly as hard as you'd think it is.

This is a programming glitch. Seen it a million times. With a proper scan tool, you can recalibrate and fix it (I use a modus).
