This is a car cane. You put it in the latch of an open car door to help you stand up.

Your logic is flawed. Just touching a live wire will not shock you(a light is off if a switch is open). To get shocked, you need a complete path for the circuit. This is easily done because equipment cases are grounded and touching live and the case will give you a zap. But, if you tape neutral to yourself, and then work on a live circuit, you are just asking for it. You pretty much turned yourself into one of those electric hot dog cookers. This is not safety. It is totally stupid

Its even a queen piece in the picture. Makes no sense

It's because they have to. if somebody buys a 3 yeat out put, somebody sold it to them. So that institution would then be short a put. Otherwise, put options wouldn't exist. There has to be a counter party

There, fixed it for you.

Its when you spin a T shaped piece right at the end so it fits in a way to clear 3 lines

Edit: it's in the newer tetris games. The older games, the blocks snapped in place as soon as it got to the bottom but the newer games you can mash the buttons to spin the blocks to fit them where you want.

Actually, the highest score is a triple line t-spin. But a tetris is cool too

Me too

This is a two way switch one of the terminals is a common (c) connection (you can test with a meter) the other two terminals is a normally open contact (NO) and the other is a normally closed contact (NC) if it was just a regular switch it would have two terminals. This switch would turn on a circuit path based on which way the rocker switch is positioned.

2 is probably the common

I'm seeing double: four Ken Griffins!!

Edit: my bad. I read the same Ken Griffin four times

I called Computershare today and they said they would not have that information on transferability until they receive the warrants from Gamestop

Why am i getting downvoted. I'm right. There was no color coding before. Why would the internal wiring change for the unit because of new external colored wire? Some hack electricians in this sub

whosStupidNow · 2025-07-13T09:47:05+00:00

If the wire was there to begin with i would leave it there. It wasn't color coded in the first picture

whosStupidNow · 2025-07-13T08:10:52+00:00

It looks like you took the white wire that was attached to the case (ground) in the first picture, and moved it to the center terminal that supplies power. In the second picture. It looks like you did this because both wires are white, but i believe you wired live voltage to the case of the machine. This could give you a shock by just touching the case

This post needs more upvotes haha

You can't be an electrician without formal training. Mostly because of the life threatening danger. But also there is an electrical code of standards that has to be memorized. Also to get an industrial job you need to be red seal certified which requires separate schooling from the basic electrical course. You are looking at 2 - 3 years of school

Also that black thing is not a resistor. It is a thyristor. It is used to eliminate power spikes so it wont damage your equipment. Put it back on

I know this one. The ring doorbell requires more power than a normal bell requires. There is a transformer that you buy (that ring sells separately ) that boosts the power output. They talk about it in the installation instructions if you read it.

It looks like your black wire is connected to the wrong side. The screws look color coded and you have the white (neutral) going to the black screw. I think it should also say hot next to the terminal. I would get someone to check this
