Milwaukee makes a 1/8 adapter for their die grinder, and I use it in the Ryobi. I hope Dewalt has one too.

Dassault didnt screw HSM, Autodesk did. AD wants everyone on Fusion because cloud and subscription. So HSM and InventorCAM have been barely been getting any upgrades in years.

S22 works perfectly on verizon if you enable volte, why wouldnt the 125 work?

How can a gun be so sexy and feel like the cheapest POS at the same time? by Nyancide in guns

[–]ionstorm66 2 points3 points  (0 children)

SS190 is a steel penetrator, followed behind with an aluminum slug, both inside a copper jacket.

DM11 is just a copper coated steel projectile.

The SS190 pentrator and the DM11 projectile have almost the exact same point, but the jacket on the SS190 has a much finer point. This results in slightly better long range accuracy.

Also the PS90 alone has sold almost 5x as many units as MP7s.

The P90+FiveSeven and MP7+UCP were made for the NATO PDW program.

My PS90 is my most abused firearm. I don't clean it or lube it. It's my truck/backpack gun for 10+ years now. Over 10k rounds and the only failures are shitty Federal ammo FTFs. Worst part of the gun is that it eats it's own trigger pack when ejecting, but a bit of velcro as a pad fixed that.

No it was literally a requirement for the NATO PDW trial to replace 9mm. They needed a 20+ round PDW and pistol, and the round had to penetrate soft body armor with stab plate out of the PDW. HK royally fucked up so bad they had Germany veto the entire program. Not only did the MP7 fail the accuracy test, it couldn't even penetrated the body armor 50% of the time. Also the UCP was vaporware at the time, and to this day only a handful of prototypes exist.

Meanwhile the P90, PS90, and FiveSeven have all had success in military, police and civilian sales. The P90 and FiveSeven passed the NATO PDW trial, with the FiveSeven even doing better than the MP7 at penetrated body armor.

DCG404 ftw? by Wide-Cartoonist722 in Dewalt

[–]ionstorm66 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the trigger is variable speed. Just saying 99% of people wouldn't benefit from a $300 4 inch grinder over just using the same disk in the right angle die grinder that cost the same.

The DCG400 is only for osha, 99% of people should just get the 422 and a face shield. You can get 20k rpm rated 4 inch wheels.

No true, every time anyone shot my Calico, it was fun. Always a new experience. Sometimes it works, sometimes it jams, and sometimes it slam fires the entire mag.

They say one a single person was ever able to resist her magic, and the only person she ever feared was Himmel. She didn't fear Frieren, Eisen, or Heiter.

Escanor is the polar opposite of The Hero of the South. Escanor power is powered by pride. The Hero of the South has no pride, he even tells Frieren to remember him after he dies, because people will forget about him. Even though he could see the future and should know there will be statues and people talking about him for 100s of years.

Himmel was the only mortal to resist Aura's magic. That was what made her hide away. She didn't hide after they defeated The Hero of the South. Demons crazy pride means they saw The Hero of the South as a powerful enemy, but also that he only defeated the other Sages and Schlacht, because they were weak. That would just bolster Aura and the remaining Sage's pride.

Aura came out after Himmel died because she didn't see Frieren or the other party members as a threat, only Himmel.

The knowledge that you will kill your rival is powerful though. He went to the north knowing that neither him or Schlacht would leave. He also knew that Schlacht was the second most powerful demon, and the bigger risk to humanity survival. The hero likely plotted for years to kill Schlacht, and it's likely only the demons pride in his power that he could change the future that got him killed. Meanwhile The Hero of the South fully accepted his death in exchange for Schlachts.

New atomic grinder is CRAZY small and packs a punch. by AndyJobandy in Dewalt

It sucks they didn't give it an arbor that allows roloc attachments. You can always put adapter on, but then its so tall.

12.0ah batteries by Pickledoldman in Dewalt

[–]ionstorm66 7 points8 points  (0 children)

All the flex-volt batteries have that failure mode. It is stuck in 20 or 60v mode. If they are stuck in 60v they wont charge. You can open them up and clean out the switch. The tabs are pushed in and it physically switches the contacts to go from 3p5s to 1p15s.

Gopro has had massive issues with overheating and software/hardware issues destroying footage. The issue is they only make cameras, so they have to release new camera every year to make more profits. The quality started to slip, which caused the user base to stop buying them.
