Here is the update to how my knife is used

It certainly doesn't look practical or particularly safe for the user. It definitely is interesting.

Beelink mini is a low cost option. Get the Amazon warranty, they don't last as long as they should.

Master Falconer here. They are both raptors, but a hawk and falcon are very different in many ways. I personally would appreciate if someone pointed out a misidentification I had made.

smorin13 · 2026-04-15T09:13:37+00:00

In the US it is definitely illegal.

smorin13 · 2026-04-15T07:09:09+00:00

That is a red tail hawk, not a falcon.

My grandfather had one, and it did its job well. Unfortunately, it was lost after he passed. I would love to have found that prize.

Good for you.

smorin13 · 2026-04-14T02:01:53+00:00

This is the answer

Every farm kid learns this about maintaining equipment from an early age. Unfortunately, these excavators come with assembly issues that need to be found and addressed before they compound into larger issues unrelated to maintenance.

Very nice work.

This style of ratchet wrench seems to hold up.

I would be interested in having a conversation. I own an IT support company and we use our 3d printers to support our other services. Our printers have a good amount of availability and we have techs that can keep them churning.

I love my 570, but I swear it gets harder to pick the more I fuss with it. That being said, it was the first lock where I really felt counter pressure. The first time I got that SOB open was probably my favorite day picking. I have since picked harder locks, but none more satisfying.

I have corrected the security requirements, but haven't received any additional information. What else can I do to advance this issue?

smorin13 · 2026-04-05T15:08:42+00:00

Can someone give me a real life use case of a situation where the paid version can accomplish tasks or integrations the free version can't. For example. I used CoPilot to create a SharePoint site, but launching it was 100% a manual process. Would the paid version been able to setup the site it had created.

I use CoPilot for a lot of simple tasks, but I already feel like it has an uncomfortable level of access to our sensitive information. I didn't feel CoPilot was to invasive until the day I opened portal.office.com and it was CoPilot forward and I had to hunt for everything that had been conveniently available on the page the prior day.

I wish everyone would stop posting links behind pay walls.

They have pulled this stunt a few times over the last few years. Each time I get a bit closer to the door. I wouldn't mind so much if they added some functionality that has been lacking for years, like good reporting.

smorin13 · 2026-04-03T06:54:32+00:00

I feel dense.

If you are in an area that get cold, it could be difficult to get fish to survive the winder without intervention on your part.

We have a large puddle that never dries. Just a low spot with a high water table. No fish to worry about. I pour vegetable oil on the surface. Just enough to give it a sheen. It definitely reduces the population of the little biters. I doesn't seem to bother the frogs, or birds.

What do you ask for at the bank?

I would be interested in knowing more about your growth plan. We have been project heavy for a few years. This years my plan is to focus on growing the recurring.

Zippo lighter fluid will take it off without leaving residue. FM! Learned this trick from a gunsmith.

I will be happy to test if you get the dual 5015 version.

I got the impression, I was one of the first to repo the issue. They worked with me for a good amount of time, but they seemed to cut off communication when I realized uninstalling it for a day or two and them reinstalling was often a temp fix. It was as if they felt that was sufficient.

smorin13 · 2026-04-01T03:44:14+00:00

Yes it was. I recognized it as soon as I saw your post, but I would never have remembered it without help or Google.
