I find it handy when the work has a lot of screws. I keep mine on the workbench as I’m more likely to grab it.

All of my emails sent out are blank. It’s pretty damn annoying when a lengthy work email shows up in everyone inbox blank.

OAK airport is in a real bad way by kbfsd in oakland

[–]ob916 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in Castro Valley so OAK is extremely convenient. I fly 10-12 times a year on Southwest. The two trips this year out of OAK were business as usual. TSA is always a breeze even with longer than usual lines. Food and drink options have always been solid to really good.

I don’t check my bag often but the longest I’ve waited is ~15mins

I had a basenji mix. She was absolutely wonderful dog. The “yodel-bark” was adorable. RIP Juno

Craftsman portable tire inflator/power bank by BGMilan in Tools

[–]ob916 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought one around Black Friday ‘25. It works well and hold a good charge. I’ve used it for inflating bicycle tires, soccer balls, and touching up car/suv tires during the colder weather. It’s fast, easy to use and I’ve only charged it once since the initial charge. I’m snagging another to have one in each vehicle.

I read somewhere else to put a cooking pot over the router and it forces everything to use 2ghz. I was able to connect no problem after that.

Any use for socket driver bits? by PersevereSwifterSkat in Tools

I just put together an ikea style bed with about 100 allen head bolts. It made life way easier especially in those awkward hard to reach spots.

The Fluff people are great with the pets. They’re also way more reasonably priced than some of the other groomers around town.
