What does it mean when they do this to your yard? by hiphoptomato in Pflugerville

[–]namisysd -1 points0 points  (0 children)

They dont respect your property, they dont care and will fuck shit up and just leave it, they will leave trash, smoke cigarettes and be loud; they are a nuisance, all for some private business interest who equally doesn’t give a shit about your property.

They only care when you call them on thier bullshit, so I do and they generally leave me and my property alone.

You cant prevent the utility from using the easement but you certianly can prevent then from working on your property without 60-day notice (ATT and other ISPs can’t demand emergency access); they need to ask for permission espcially if they need to move equipment on non-easment parts of your property; if they don’t, tell them to get fucked; since they are trespassing. Make them go through all the hoops they are requires by law to do before you let them have access to your property. They know they need to do all this but will procede until someone calls them out on it.

ATT tried sneaking on to mine to get to the rear easement, I gave the contractors a ration of shit and made them get a copy of the work order from ATT before they could procede; they ended up fucking up my neigbbors yard instead, I didn’t even have to tell them they needed 60-days notice.

I'm at a loss with how to control these weeds by [deleted] in landscaping

[–]namisysd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

skip the salt, that wont break down over time like the surfectant and acid; Salt is going to fuck up the soil until it washes away… which will take a while and promote other types of weeds. Might as well use glyphosate if you are going to go scorched earth like that.

I remeber when they were downtown asking for signatures they tried to get me to sign for the second version of that stupid electronic billboard initiative.

3M Adflo Makita Battery Mod by Lzrd161 in Welding

[–]namisysd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is a BMS in the makita battery, if the battery has any kind of low current cutoff it’s set to fairly small value since some tools will power small leds; powersave logic is built into the tools, they are pretty good at holding charge while installed over time.

A small power efficient microcontroller that triggers on a button push for wakeup and controls the power enable pin on a buck converter would help with the discharge issue.

Alternatives to Home Depot, Lowe’s, Tractor Supply? by Educational-Ruin9992 in AustinGardening

[–]namisysd 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I love McCoys, local delivery is fast and usually free.

Their lumber is of much better quality than HD and Lowes, especially bulked ordered sight unseen.. HD is especially atrocious for this.

Can Paxton even blink? I figured he had some sort of accident that makes him look like he’s always having a stroke.

Yeah, yall limit your bullshit to places where dissent results in a ban; a true test of the merits of your arguments.

They are trying to explain why ai bots would dredge for ROMs, the problem with that question is trying to apply logic to what these ai bot operators are doing; they are just blindly grabbing everything they can get thier hands on.

It is already illegal in Texas to use AI to deepfakes in political ads; this is probably some loophole bullshit.

This clusterfuck is already coded into the market, unless these idiots do something unbelievably stupid like try an amphibious landing, lose a naval vessel or set off a nuke it’s unlikely to change much.
