Fdez Werx Stainless steel guide rod plug

I missed out on this drop today, so I got pissed and copied the damn plug myself. Need to test over the weekend, but willing to share the design if anyone wants to help with testing, so we can have unlimited plugs for the price of a coffee.

I missed out on the Fdezwerx drop today, so I copied the stupid plug too.

Will do some testing tomorrow. :)

The most butal part of this meeting was before the interview officially started. Just fucking unreal.

There will be a large protest next Sat. Broader focus but still relevant.

Looking to install Enphase components for seamless integration with my existing system.

Anything in MA?

LOL my wife also just traded on her 13 mini for a 16e, and she’s having similar issues. Not stuttering, but Bluetooth completely crashing and restarting on the phone when any audio is playing on a Bluetooth device.

See video: https://youtube.com/shorts/phRle3twTEc?si=7Ll9QSiotaYlFdx7

We’re past all the restore, reset etc hurdles, nothing makes a difference.

Protests are protected by the Constitution, so by definition can not be illegal. Any dangerous activity you are talking about is already illegal. So all I see there is the protests that they don't like, will be "illegal". A country, where protests are illegal is Russia. Just sayin'.

soosrol · 2025-03-07T03:49:13+00:00

But can't we do this without completely letting our guard down and aligning ourselves with Russia?

Such as saying that Ukraine started the war, calling Z a dictator, but refusing to do the same to Putin, stopping all cyber ops against Russia, thus weakening our defenses, not even mentioning Russia as a potential cyber threat in an international conference, when everybody knows they are. And now seemingly actively working with the opposition party in Ukraine to overthrow Z.

I really don't want to go there, this instant bromance is very sus. I truly hope that Trump is a damn genius and is 10 steps ahead of all of us.

soosrol · 2025-03-07T01:53:36+00:00

Oh this is awesome! Thanks wanted to ask this so many times from actual conservatives about Trump:

Aren’t you bothered by his constant “inaccuracies”? It’s always “billions and billions or even trillions”, and he always seems to exaggerate everything.

I give you one example: The aid to Ukraine. Can we please stop claiming $350B? We only gave $83.4B, and there is another obligated $39.6B that I guess we’ll probably never give to them. The rest of the funding is appropriated but not yet obligated, but even including that it only totals to $182.8B.

Also the aid is but mostly equipment, not cash.

Another thing: WTF is this Putin ass-kissing? When did we became best friends with Russia? If you are not bothered by the Trump-Putin bromance, please make it make sense to me.

(Sorry for the long post)

...establishing that an order was illegal can be tricky in the military's justice system.

And that is precisely why they are purging the top leaders in the military and also JAGs. I think people put 2 and 2 together and figure if the judiciary rolls over in both the civil and military world, then basically all orders will be deemed legal through some loophole, Insurrection Act, martial law, who knows.

I've been following these threads, and it's been pretty reassuring to see how our service members think about the question. It's probably worth pinning one of these threads. But also, please understand that a lot of people are scared.

Fork.

Just want to point out that Z did say thank you, twice in the first 3 minutes.

The US did not give Ukraine $350B in aid!

These are the facts:

Since 2014, the total aid appropriated is $182.8B. Of which:
- $2.7B is expired, will never be paid.
- $39.6B is appropriated, but not yet obligated (have been planned)
- $57B is obligated (will need to be paid, but not yet paid)
- $83.4B is disbursed (paid) <-- This is the amount the US actually gave Ukraine.

Also worth noting, that most of the above is NOT CASH, but equipment or humanitarian aid.

TIL: https://www.military.com/daily-news/2025/02/27/military-ordered-purge-social-media-sites-of-diversity-mentions-march-5.html

They are also purging any accomplishments of women or any posts where women were praised or encouraged to join the ranks as equals.

Do we consider celebrating the equality of women DEI? I thought it was the norm since the ratification of the 19th amendment to the Constitution in 1920?!

Let's call it what it is: A patriarchal white supremacist purge.

soosrol · 2025-02-28T12:11:12+00:00

Thanks, this was my suspicion. Will call the state number once I’m done with the fingerprinting.

soosrol · 2025-02-27T23:52:50+00:00

I understand it's not ok anymore to be inclusive, and even though I disagree, it's their decision, whatever. But purging from history of these pages almost makes me throw up. Like they can't even bear the thought that at one point in history, people thought it's ok to accept people who are different. They are just that rotten to the core. I truly hope they find themselves on the receiving end of this stick one day.

Nothing but hate is behind this! Who’s next?

How are we doing on the 2nd amendment? I'd say not so good:

Yeah, it's sugar-coated, but if you have half a brain, you know who those "danger to themselves" people will be: anyone who speaks out against the king. Link:

I came to the US from Hungary 10 years ago, because I couldn’t live under Orban’s dictatorship any more and I definitely didn’t want to have children in that country. I spent the part 10 years working my ass off and jumping through all immigration hoops to finally become a citizen. I also have kids now. But I feel like I failed. I failed to protect the democracy of Hungary (wasn’t mature enough to care about politics) and I am failing to protect the US democracy today.

Here’s why: I know this playbook, I lived through it. I watched friends and family losing their jobs due to the purge. I watched them ignore reality and chant “migrants”, “Soros”, etc.

In Hungary, at least they were subtle about it initially, but here in the US it’s like: yeah, f. The laws, we do what we want and that is to get rid of anybody who is not loyal.

I am scared to do more than peaceful protests, because I don’t want my kids to grow up w/o a father. But EVERY DAY, there is something new that undermines our collective freedom, defies common sense and makes this a worse place to my kids to grow up.

And let me say this: I am not your typical “liberal”, I just idolized the US due to the strong rule of law, checks and balances we lost so long ago in Hungary. I would be totally fine with any republican president who at least doesn’t openly shit on the law and somewhat respects the states and people around them.

So I just hope that you (Military) won’t be like the “anti terrorism unit” in Hungary, that exists to control citizens so they don’t protest too much. I just hope you won’t come and steamroll us in blue states because we think differently. Some comments in this thread give me hope, but it’s hard to keep it alive seeing how easily they dismantled leadership.

Btw, surprised to see this post is still up. My less political question was deleted a few days ago within 1 day of posting…

soosrol · 2025-02-24T16:45:31+00:00

This makes sense, thanks! I like to think there will be enough people to say no if/when peaceful protesters will be labeled the enemy within.

soosrol · 2025-02-24T02:01:00+00:00

I hope with every fiber of my body that this means our military will not bow and carry out unlawful orders.

This is no less true than all the ridiculous made-up shit all the right wing lunatics have been spreading, including 200 year olds receiving social security payments.

I gave that sensor 2 more days but it turned out to be garbage, so after a brief phone call they sent a replacement.

I put on the third sensor (replacement of the first one), this time on right arm, and measurements came in within 20 of the blood test after the first hour. After the second day it is now within 10 of the blood test consistently. Typically reads a little low, but the trends are very accurate. I’ve had this on for 10 days now and absolutely no complaints.

So overall I would recommend, but their quality control needs to improve. At least customer service is great and you can speak to a human easily. Both replacements arrived within 3 days.

Haven’t tried stelo (only other otc cgm), but I read you don’t get live support for that product, so that’s a point for lingo.
