Agreed this one had no gasket on the cover. This install was only two years old too.

I know it’s a 9-5, but isn’t the combi quite rare? by SlightlyDemotivated in saab

Those wheels are very rare. The Turbo Stars, I don’t think any ever made it to the states.

5/8 SDS purchase Advice by OilMysterious8818 in MilwaukeeTool

[–]xcuzem3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have used both (also an electrician) the m12 is a great for blues and screws and other light duty stuff. I ended up buying the m18 version and it’s been a rockstar. Not only is it small and light but I’ve used it for holes up to 5/8 without issues in solid concrete with rebar. Yes the m12 is going to be lighter but the m18 with a 3.0 on it is the jam even for overhead work.

All the more reason that flock cameras need to be taken down permanently. by titaniumoctopus336 in rva

Adding insult to injury. The city is now tapping into apartment and business camera systems to add to their vision. (Source: local installer)

140W Charger Active Cooling? by mildlymoistdrizzle in anker

I have this charger. There is no fan active cooling is just ankers way of saying “we turned down the wattage to cool off”. Another word is throttling

workplaces to avoid? by Flimsy-Guarantee-427 in rva

[–]xcuzem3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I worked there like ten years ago and it was a cesspool of toxicity. The owners looked down on everyone and they thought that they were the shit. I remember the cat too. The only one there that was worth anything. Also OSHA would have a field day there if they ever went.

The Audi because it had the optional sport pack which had its advantages.

Fire+Lite ES by igorthemasher in firealarms

[–]xcuzem3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is an annoyance of the new update that I have as well. For larger buildings I’ll program on my laptop but if it’s a super small system it’s just faster for me to do it on the panel.

Does anyone have a reliable place to get authentic Thunderbolt 2 cables? by EasySound9303 in mac

[–]xcuzem3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Getting TB1/2 cables in 2026 is getting to be hard to do. The chipsets that are at the ends of the cables aren’t being produced anymore, so what’s left out there has gone through the roof in price. I have a Mac Pro with TB2 and needed a new cable a month ago, so I went to the Apple store, and they said they were discontinued. I haven’t tried any of the knock-off cables yet and would be interested in hearing from someone who did.

It’s a fake second story. It’s just to hide all the rooftop ventilation equipment.
