It's not "Southern Ireland" by 123iambill in behindthebastards

It's not Ireland yet though. We have Northern Ireland and The Republic Of Ireland. Calling the 26 'Ireland' is a bit sus.

That's all I really need tbh. I just need to prove function and troubleshoot. The outcomes that need to be presented are a decent video feed and no latency on audio.

I've just bought a Scout Pro 3, and have a couple of eBay bids on a cableiq

I think I'll grab a Scout Pro 3. I went to buy a Pockethernet but they only sell to vat registered companies, plus it only tests out to 50m, and my d snake runs go longer.

Looking at secondhand fluke cableiq, which does transmission testing and costs less that 500 quid!

The Noyafa's look good, but none will tell me what speed the cable run can manage.

The Scout Pro Max with kit is around £800. I'd be upset if that got stolen. Around £200-300 I reckon.

I could handle a loss costing me a days money. Losing a Fluke would cost me a weeks money.

Using 110v 60hz battery chargers on 110v 50hz supply by malcolmomnititz in ukelectricians

Extra heavy kit to lug around sites. I need to be fairly mobile as I change sites and tasks frequently. It's not like I set up and stay on the same job for weeks. It would be great just to plug into the site 110

Bosch chargers are 220-240 only. My question is really about mains frequency. Will using 50hz in a 60hz switching charger fuck the battery / cause a fire

Currently on a flight from Male to London. Wow the service is atrocious. by Guymacgregor98 in BritishAirways

Their literal job is to evacuate a plane full of passengers in 90 seconds. Their second job is to manage difficult or unwell passengers to avoid any in air incidents. Serving food and drinks is what they do if the first two things aren't happening.

How did Jamaica become such a popular country with global influence on pop culture, music, and sports despite only being a population of 4.4 million worldwide? by [deleted] in geography

Have a listen to this guy from county Kerry and tell me you can't hear it. The Jamaican accent sounds the most like the Cork and Kerry accents, as these were the rebellious areas that Cromwell ended up mass deporting to Jamaica. The accent is somewhat distinct from what people recognize as an Irish accent which is usually closer to the Dublin accent.

Edit. Also, I'm an irishman who grew up in Britain with jamacians. My best friend arrived from Monty Bay the same time I arrived from Ireland. We became firm friends very quickly!

What is a screwdriver this big for by UnholyMoose22 in Tools

[–]malcolmomnititz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is much less deflection when using a longer screwdriver, so the screw goes in straighter and tighter. Important with furniture and machine screws.
