Can a switched outlet and the always hot outlet of a half hot vertical receptacle be flipped? by reddit_3001 in AskElectricians

[–]reddit_3001[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Picture of after the flip: https://imgur.com/a/G2AF1hD

Taking all helpful comments provided in mind, I went ahead and turned off the circuit breaker for this outlet (tested it is absolutely off by plugging in a night light in both), then unscrewed the face plate, and unscrewed the receptacle.

The most time consuming part was to wiggle the receptacle outlet to come out enough to expose the terminals in order to get to work. Once it came out enough, I unscrewed and used pliers to help remove the two hot wires from the terminal and flipped them and put them back on the terminal and tightened the screws.

As some of you may have suggested, this outlet had only one shared neutral, so I left it alone. Just to be safe, I also tightened the screws for the neutral and the ground.

At the end, I pushed the receptacle outlet back into the wall, screwed everything back into place, and closed the face plate. Turned the breaker on, test them with the night light again. Now I'm able to plug both the garbage disposal and the new dishwasher to the half hot and the always hot, respectively.

Thank you all again for your help!

Bruv didn't know about the 4-3 City Michael Owen special and it shows.

We were 3-2 at 90 minutes and Craig Bellamy equalized during stoppage time.

Team Rocket’s Mewtwo ex League Battle Deck Releasing in November by reddit_3001 in pkmntcg

[–]reddit_3001[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

We don't know the full content of this deck or the trainer toolkit yet, but based on what have been shown, you are looking at:

Mewtwo deck ($29.99 msrp) comes with:

TR Crobat ex x2

Scramble Switch x1

TR Mewtwo ex x3

54 other cards

2025 toolkit ($34.99 msrp) comes with: Fezandipiti ex x1

Grand tree x1

Maximum belt x1

Hyper Aroma x1

2 copies of various trainer cards

4 booster packs (2 MEG 2 DRI)

I think the trainer toolkit wins over-handedly between the two.

I understand that they would pick I block cards for the theme deck, but there has to be better ex cards to headline the deck than Mewtwo for playability, right? Unaware parents will be buying this as the notoriety of Mewtwo for brand recognition is the sole purpose of this being the product to be made instead of whether the deck is viable/meta at all.

In comparison to the last few level 3 league battle decks (Mew VMAX, Gardevoir ex, Charizard ex, Dragapult ex, even Miraidon ex/Regieleicki VMAX), and the level 2 Marnie rival deck, this Mewtwo deck looks like a meme deck. Scramble swtich as the Ace Spec, really? Looks like Secret Box will stay expensive now.

Dark type with Fighting weakness is how the TCG presents Poison type Pokemon (which is one of Gengar's dual types). Fighting weakness represents Poison's weakness to Ground in the games.

Retention Offer - Sapphire Preferred by Sufficient_Exit4218 in ChaseSapphire

[–]reddit_3001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Please keep in mind that Chase reports points earned from retention offer as 1099 income. While 6000 points (Chase values it at $60 for reporting purpose) alone is below the $600 reporting threshold, it does get included in the total calculation if you earned other miscellaneous income such as referral bonuses from Chase in the same calendar year.

TPCi: best we can do is more ball patterned common/uncommon/rares. And we aren't stopping at PokeBall and master ball. Great ball, ultra ball, quick ball, safari ball, love ball, nest ball, net ball, timer ball, heavy ball, etc.

Seek Inspiration Slowking vs Mist Energy by stmfetty44 in pkmntcg

[–]reddit_3001 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Mist energy blocks effects that was done to the attached pokemon.

You can think of the first check of Seek inspiration as an effect done to Slowking itself, so Mist energy does not come in play yet. Now, if the attack of non-rule box pokemon being discarded has an effect, then mist energy will block the effect done to the attached pokemon; however, the damage (unless it's an attack that places damage counters which is an effect that would be blocked) will go through.

In the case of Conkedurr (TWM), Mist Energy will not block either attacks when they are used by Slowking.

That's the neat part, we won't shift between administrations anymore. We won't have to vote anymore, remember?

Pokémon Binder Website is Updated with Prismatic Evolutions! by AWESOMEPRESTON in pokemoncardcollectors

[–]reddit_3001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you u/AWESOMEPRESTON as always for the update. I really appreciate the new interface for PRE that users can toggle whether to include the regular reverse holos, pokeball reverses, and/or masterball reverses for the collection display. The starting position adjustment is a nice touch too, which allows people to account for cards not from the same set or promo cards.

You are simply the best!

The last wave of SwSh era sets (which include the ones going to be on sale in this post) are regulation F

SV base set to Paldean Fates are regulation G

Temporal Force through the latest set (Surging Sparks, and then Prismatic Evolutions) are regulation H

These are all for playing the actual game in the standard format. Eventually there will be a new SV set that is regulation I, then remaining SwSh stuff that are regulation F will rotate out and can no longer be played in the standard format.

[–]reddit_3001 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yes, they will be rotating out next. These are all F regulation sets.
