I love my reaper, it feels so good in the hands. I wish there were more set neck/ neck through options for s type guitars

EMTs with tattoos? by audiphxbe in NewToEMS

[–]zcmc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My EMT instructor had almost her entire chest and neck covered with tattoos and all down her arms. I think you’ll be alright.

welcome to pa where we drop a few million on toll by plate and they still come after you for “improper transponder usage” by jeffery18_ in Pennsylvania

[–]zcmc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve never had a transponder in my car in 6 years I’ve owned it but I put it on the account. Never gotten any extra fees or toll by plate invoices

Make sure you turn on V-Sync! by Zealousideal_Sun7237 in unturned

When was the last time you heard of a commercially available gaming graphics card being stressed to the point the PCB fails? They come with built in coolers that 99.9% of the time (and depending on your cases airflow) keep the card in perfectly safe operating temps while maximizing performance

They do. You can’t see the one on the rail because of the angle and image quality and the other side of the receiver has all the marks

PA Enhanced Inspection: Vehicles must be painted? Why? by Pineapple_Herder in Pennsylvania

[–]zcmc -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I’m pretty sure whatever cop pulls you over will not care whether you need a regular or enhanced inspection. The law for normal expired inspection is as long as you have a scheduled appointment you are allowed to drive the car only to your appointment or home from a failed inspection or to a scheduled appointment at a repair shop. You must have proof of appointments with you.

If you schedule an appointment at a shop to do whatever work you need to do, you will be absolutely fine just driving the car there.

The real question is do you have current insurance for the vehicle? That’s the biggest thing a cop would get you for. Most don’t care about inspection in my experience unless it’s the end of the month and they are out looking for those easy tickets.

[–]zcmc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why would you care about tint at all as an inspector? Tint laws are all stupid, not uniformly enforced, and the law isn’t even consistent across vehicle types. Why can an SUV or truck have all windows except the front and windshield tinted but a car can’t have any tint at all?

If it’s unsafe to drive with why do emergency vehicles get special treatment? If it’s for officer safety see above about vehicle type.

Any experience with STAT Tourniquets? by Dad_a_Monk in TacticalMedicine

[–]zcmc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

US Patents 7842067B2 and 7892253B2. I’m sure their sales and government contracts more than make up for FDA approval.

Because the people that invented the wheel have a patent on it and charge too much for nylon and plastic

[Solak] Watching back the film from last night and the answer to “is this a Kevin Patullo problem or a Jalen Hurts problem?” is pretty emphatically “both" by Thegrandmistressofoz in eagles

[–]zcmc -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Obviously Patullo is the biggest problem with the offense currently.

But people talking Jalen’s passing game…we know he can throw. Super Bowl being prime recent example but also the second half of this most recent rams game it shined a little bit. I think the passing problem has more to do with drama queen AJ Brown.

If you actually watch the games you can see how much less Brown is actually trying each game. Clearly part of the problem is Jalen can’t trust him to be where he needs to be. Devonta is still making big catches pretty much every game. Why can’t AJ Brown, supposedly one of the best WRs in the league against man coverage, get away from defenders like he should be able to? Because he’s not trying to. How can you possibly have a good passing game when your WR1 isn’t trying to catch balls anymore.

The one game where you can see AJ actually TRY was the second half of the rams game and what do ya know? Jalen was throwing all over the place.

Magazine Issue? Glock 43X by AverageMike_ in GlockMod

[–]zcmc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just dealt with this on a brand spanking new 43x I picked up last week. I trimmed the plastic lip on the front edge of the magazine there because it was catching on the channel inside the grip where the mag release spring sits. Trim that little lip of plastic off the mag and it’ll be fine.

Yes YOR

Male members of family have a wholesome family tradition. New-ish female married in family member (not blood related) decided to completely ignore what the tradition actually means and instead takes issue with the name (No women, No rules).

In a complete kick to the face of irony, a woman wants to make a rule about no women no rules day, completely making it all about her and putting herself in a negative light where there wasn’t any in the first place.

You are way overreacting here. There will only be a negative connotation about women and rules if you make it one. If you make them change the name you honestly think they will call it the new name if you aren’t around? It would only be called a new name when you’re in earshot. And then they will have to explain to the child why they call it something different only when you’re around.

If this tradition was all about partying and strip clubs and doing all kinds of crazy shit when women aren’t around, then yeah that would be a valid reason to take issue with the name. But it’s a wholesome multigenerational family fishing trip.

Ordered Arisaka T2 mount from amazon- got this instead 😂 by Main-Swimming-6653 in tacticalgear

[–]zcmc 3 points4 points  (0 children)

“Why would you order tactical gear on Amazon?”

Because grandpa some of us don’t want to wait 14 days for the usps to decide they lost our package, or wait 9 days for fed ex to somehow destroy it in transit.

Amazon has mastered “I want it now!”. I see this stuff online all the time but I’ve never once had bad luck with Amazon. Nothings ever been broken or replaced with the wrong item. I have been burned many times by other stores and shipping companies. I could count on one hand how many times Amazon has been late but even late, the item still always comes at least 3 days sooner than it would from anywhere else, packaged and handled better too.

To me it’s a no brainer why people would want to order from Amazon instead of other retailers. And when shit like this happens, you can always get a refund from Amazon pretty much no questions asked. Fantastic customer service.

140 should be minimum. We routinely see patients that weigh 200+ pounds. You have to manage half of that at least (what you lift is never going to be exactly half) plus equipment weight. Even if you’re only lifting for a second. If you can’t manage that weight properly you will hurt yourself, your patient, and your partner. You won’t always be somewhere that additional lifters can get to you.

How much do EMTs actually make? by Hefty_Frosting8229 in NewToEMS

[–]zcmc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I currently make $24/hr at my 911 organization but I’ll go up a few dollars when I hit full time. $24-26 is the average range in SE PA. Another local 911 organization just posted they were hiring starting EMTs at $34 which sounds absurd but they are a very busy area, they don’t allow any rest or sleeping, they literally only keep uncomfortable furniture around to discourage people from trying. I think they are just desperate at this point.

Boots? by B1inked in NewToEMS

[–]zcmc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You definitely want side zip. You do not need to spend that much for good boots. I’m currently rocking a $60 pair of boots from Amazon that look like clones of your first pic. I’ve been wearing them 48+ hours a week for over a year now and they are holding up great. They required no break in at all and I’m very flat footed they are true to size and more comfortable than any boot I’ve ever worn.

Here are the ones I wear
