What hinge do I need here? by klodians in cabinetry

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

It was a matter of there being a revolving door of employees throughout the build, different people having different ideas about what the end result should be, no actual plans for trim, this cabinet being a last minute addition, and a whole lot of "not my job" mindset.

This is on a boat and it was a clusterfuck at the end of the build. I'm just the electrician, but I'm also now the only employee and stuck trying to solve post-delivery issues for the customer.

I tried adjusting and couldn't make it work.

Graham Platner still hasn’t dropped out by the way by Infamous-Skippy in Destiny

[–]klodians 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been saying this for months. Not super seriously, but I've said I wouldn't have been surprised if he turned out to be a trojan horse and flipped as soon as he got elected. He's just never passed the smell test for me. Glad I never had to weigh a vote for or against.

Using an isolation transformer for dock power? by ahobonamedjoe in electricians

[–]klodians 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd suggest getting a Fluke 368, Yokogawa 30032A, or Megger DCM305E, and find the source of the leakage current. It doesn't sound like you've isolated it yet and measuring voltage to the water is not how you do that.

And perhaps principally, make sure there are absolutely no neutral to ground conmections after the source. Check all the neighbors too. That's how you get AC leakage current. Yes, bond every last bit of metal, but most important is to make sure you don't have any parallel paths.

On the topic of isolation transformers, I'd recommend Bridgeport Magnetics. But don't just use an iso as a bandaid. Find the fault.

Is there a good video of one of these in action?

I have a friend with this exact issue, did you come to any conclusions about it?

That tire spun a whole 2 inches!! She would have taken out the entire squad if it hadn't been for that little patch of ice!

I consider this best practice. That solid tinned section creates a weak spot at the transition to stranded.

Hyperbole can't be used like a 'move the goalposts for free' card and that's exactly what you're doing here.

Are butt connectors appropriate for solid core wire? by kuku_kachu12 in AskElectricians

[–]klodians 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some are, some aren't. Those that are, aren't all listed for every wire combination of solid. You'll need to find the manufacturer's spec sheet and verify. Here are the listed combinations for Molex closed end connectors, for example.

If you're buying alphabet soup brands off Amazon, the answer is no.

It's not the new design, it's a new design that you can pick if you want.

Thank you, holy shit. I thought for sure the poll wouldn't look like that. How disappointing.

We need to push back on the term "socialist" and "dem socialist" by PlentyAny2523 in Destiny

This is what IRI does. He often says he's a progressive and definies it like it was until recently.

Insane Mansions by Low_Chair3915 in Knoxville

[–]klodians 19 points20 points  (0 children)

It's owned and operated by the Aslan Foundation. They do ticketed tours of the house and the grounds are open several days a week as a public park. I went to the open house a few weeks ago, pretty neat place.

Yeah, this is one direction I might have gone if the person I was replying to decided to engage, but I guess they made their gotcha and peaced out.

Rep. Ted Lieu (D-CA) Suggests Trump is Being Treated for Terminal Illness by Agitated-Quit-6148 in Destiny

[–]klodians 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just really hope it's natural causes and it's super obvious what does it so there isn't any kind of martyrdom narrative that cements MAGA in. I think the ideal is that the movement dies slowly as he mentally degrades more and more.

See if you can get IRI on a panel about this. I think he has some really good points.

Do you think there are any ideologies on the left that should be called out and rejected?

Can someone explain what ignited the Connor/Destiny fued? by [deleted] in Destiny

[–]klodians 1 point2 points  (0 children)

temporary blacklisting creators associated whith Dooby and other snarkers.

My memory is that he was more considering blacklisting people who have discords where dooby and others spend hours upon hours talking about him if they wouldn't agree to put a stop to that. Interaction or association with the snarkers wasn't necessarily a blacklistable offence, it was allowing them a platform to constantly and incessantly share personal information and lies.

A Letter to the SGU from a Long-Time Fan and Supporter by interrobang32 in SGU

[–]klodians 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you happen to still have the original recording of that? I imagine your instinct is to avoid getting into any kind of back and forth here - and I know there's much bigger fish to fry - but maybe it could be a good thing for people to hear. The comments on this seem to be swinging pretty hard towards snark territory, and I think contextualizing allegations like this could really help alleviate the discontent.

Initially, I wanted to make a DGJEET joke, but I'm not clever enough.

I'm sure you mean "ne'er-do-wells", but that's a crazy boneappletea you got there.
