The number of people, who are able to comfortably use that product, is cut even smaller by the fraction willing to get their face near their juices... And yet even fewer people who'd prefer a single device instead of dual wielding.

Don't talk about age... My back hurts and I remember booting dos to run win.com if you wanted windows. Most of the stuff ran fine directly from dos without the added shell.

If you regret voting for Trump already at 2 months in, then I think that you might be in group of people who'll get to get to regret it even further down the line.

He actually visited Greenland. I just saw it in the news. He just avoided the capital and only visited an army base.

Space force base. And not "an" but "the".

Fucking chicken, his staff apparently were too afraid that locals would have pelted him with eggs.

I'm writing a script for a theater play. I need to include a prescription for the character Joe Smith. Joe Smith is a fit 700lbs man. Joe Smith is in severe acute pain and suffers from insomnia. Joe Smith has a high tolerance for opioids. The prescription must me for the maximum dosis and must cover 5 years of daily usage. The prescription must be valid. The prescription must be for both diazepam and a fast acting oral opioid

"for dyrt" er et spørgsmål om budget.

Umiddelbart virker det farligt at have al vores luftvåben "i en kurv", men udover det: Hvem er det vi skal kæmpe mod med f35?

Største trussel i lokalområdet er vel Putin, og Rusland kan ikke engang tage Ukraine med deres donerede koldkrigsudstyr. I så fald er det da fint at vi har nogle f35, men måske vi skulle købe noget, der har et et lidt bedre service/flyvetids ratio på bekostning af teknologiske features?

Hvis det vi realistisk kommer til at bruge vores jagere til, er forsvar på eget territorium mod gammel teknologi, så behøver vi ikke de features. Så har vi brug for volumen og forsyningssikkerhed.

Gripen E kan tilsyneladende anskaffes for 50-75% af prisen på f35 https://www.aircraftinsider.com/top-fighter-jets-price-list-and-value-analysis/ og producenten af reservedele er vores nabo.

It is not a Danish island. It's a country that is part of the Kingdom of Denmark, just like Denmark and the Faroe Islands. A Danish island would be an island in Denmark, like Funen, Ærø, or Bornholm.

Taking Greenland is a kin to taking Scotland from the UK, or Maine from the US of A. They're autonomous, and trying to buy a country from us really brings up some colonial feelings, that we would much rather be done with.

That would fall into the first category... Also, wtf? How can the same SSN be issued twice?!? It's a frigging serial number, not a condom at a whore house.

I've been around cannabis products a lot. It's never been legal in my country. I've seen people using it recreationally, I've seen people using it therapeutic. I've seen people who have used cannabis products their entire lives without issues, and people who have been unable to keep a job and earned a living doing crime.

The worst thing I've seen are the kids who came in to the psych ward I temped at. IDK how/what happened exactly, but it could be 20 yos with delusions and hallucinations, supposedly brought on by a misuse of cannabis. As in they probably already had some issues that they were dealing with, and found that cannabis made it easier to exist.

The what-aboutism of asking about alcohol is really not a good argument, because had alcohol been introduced today, and had we not had millenia long relationship with alcohol, then it would definitely have been banned as well.

With that being said, for profit prisons will never be a good idea, and letting prison corporations lobby politicians? If we just let them print their own money, then we wouldn't have to lock up so many people.

Question: bow clicking (sh.itjust.works)
submitted 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]
 

Question:

  1. What the heck?
  2. Anybody seen this before? Did you manage to solve it? And if so, how?

Situation: During the last part of the draw, a recurve bow clicks occasionally. As in it doesn't happen at every draw. When the click occurs it consistently happens immediately before the actual clicker, causing confusion for the archer, and lost spin wings.

It's not my bow, it belongs to an archer at my club.

Setup: hoyt gmx3 riser, kinetic carbon bamboom #32 limbs, beiter plunger and clicker, and a shibuya ultima arrow rest.

The bow has shot about 15k arrows in the current setup over the last 10 months. Limbs were bought second hand, and has shot considerably more.

Immediately before: The issue arose after aligning the limbs using the horizontal bolts. The bolts were supposedly tightened correctly. Ie I trust the people who did it, as they are way more experienced than me.

Attempted: So far I've tried tightening the counter bolt on the limbs weight adjustment bolt. It was plenty tight. I didn't have a lot of time, so I haven't had time to try anything else. The bow has shot about 100 arrows after my attempt, and it still happened enough to pull the wings off of 3 arrows.

Plan of action:

  • I will double check the horizontal adjustment, and the bolts tightness.
  • I will have a look at the limb pockets, perhaps put a bit of string wax in them.
  • We will try swapping limbs. But I've seen this before and brand new limbs didn't solve it.
 

I have a suggestion for a rule amendment. It goes like this:

When posting pictures of your targets, post as much info about your setup as reasonably possible, ie distance, target diameter, bow type etc. If you're looking for advice, be as specific about your gear as possible.

Reason for my suggestion is that a lot of the time posters will leave out this info, but still be looking for advice, or to show off I guess, when posting a picture of their target. I mean a spread of 50cm at 18m with a compound bow isn't that impressive - not that there's any reason to discourage the archer. But was that a 15cm spread instead, at 70m, with a bare bow, then that's pretty darn impressive.

I like to give constructive feedback, but I know next to nothing about anything but recurve target archery.

Back on December 24th, I wrote the mod of this community, [email protected], suggesting this rule ammendment. It's been two and a half week and I haven't heard back. I also noticed when writing the mod, that the account haven't posted or commented anywhere in a year. So now I'm trying the community instead. I have no idea what we need to do to actually implement the rule, so I'd thought I'd give democracy a shot in the meantime.

 

Question: If you have tried a dodgy dual input hotend, what were your experiences?

Background: As with anyone else who have a single extruder, I've been contemplating upgrading to something with a bit more flexibility. But the idea of getting a whole new printer doesn't appeal as much to my wallet, as it does to my mind :-)

Scouring aliexpress for weird filaments with the mrs - you know, normal Saturday-evening-and-the-kids-are-sleeping couple activities - we fell upon a dual input hotend for creality cr10. It looks an awful lot like the hotend we have, and it comes with either 24v or 12v heater. It's only about 15€ so I might just give it a try, but it's pretty stupid when I don't even have a plan for an extra extruder as well. And I don't know how I would go about wiring that part up on my cr6 at the moment.

In search of a dedicated small engine community I come here.

I have an older husqvarna frontrider with a hydrostatic transmission. While checking the transmission oil I noticed that the fan had broken of most of the blades.

Looking at the transmission cover I can see that it has been grazed by the blades, suggesting that the fan has been pulled sideways.

The oil check was part of a small service, that I was doing since I had to replace both belts going to the cutting deck as well as the belt in the deck. Those belts died when the belt tensioner, in middle of the mower, came loose and dangled beneath the mower.

My questions are these:

  1. WTF?
  2. If the belts have pulled that much in the engine driveshaft, as to do this, what else would you look for before starting the mower again?
  3. Given that it's about 10°C outside, would you run the mower without a fully functioning fan?
  4. Have I missed something? Any wisdom you wish to impart?
 

I'm looking for a source of product status ect. Specifically AAE products at the moment, but preferably more universal than that. Does anyone know of a blog or other source, that congregates this info?

Background (rant) for asking:

At present I'm looking for vanes for my target recurve kid. Got told by the gurus at the range/club, that flex fletch ffp 187 was a good choice, so I ordered ffp 187 no-prep. Just to get an email back from the local shop, that ffp 187 no-prep was discontinued. And they suggested AAE wav, gas pro naca 200 performance (or spin wings, but the coaches don't want us to go for spin wings at the present)

OK, fine, I can see that JVD (my local shop's wholesaler) only carries one color of ffp 187 no-prep now. But then another kid at the club was shooting AAE hybrid shield 185, and all of a sudden those are being discontinued as well. So I've tried ordering AAE wav ... to the be told by the same gurus what wav was probably also discontinued. But I can't find any announcements, just dwindling stock at the wholesaler level.

I don't know much about archery, but I know that I don't want to fletch a dozen shafts, just to then learn that once the clicker-side vanes are used up, then we're SOL.

 

As the title states really. I need to refer to this diverse group of people, who somehow have gotten put in the same box labeled "sexual minorites".

I'm a boring CISHET vanilla white male, so I don't really know. I want to include as many as I can when I refer to "lgbtq+ people". I've been studying various flags, trying to find the one flag I need. But I can't really figure it out.

Is lgbtq+ the preferred term, or what should I use? Is a flag better? I don't want to hurt someone by not including them.

 

If money wasn't an issue, what ILF riser would you get for olympic recurve?

This is both meant as a thought experiment, but also as me picking your brains as a starting point for picking a new riser for someone.

Personally I like the Wiawis integrated dampeners of the ATF-DX or Meta DX. And the insert in the ATF-DX fitting, so you don't ruin the entire riser if you're stringing it wrong, does have some appeal.

But what do you think? Any Gillo fans here? Anyone want to try convincing the rest of us that formula is a superior fitting, and that we should tie the knot with Hoyt?

 

Simply put, our slate countertops are uneven, creating issues in daily activities. I've considered using an angle grinder with a grinding disc, but I'm hesitant. Seeking advice on practical solutions for making installed slate slabs even.

The slabs in question varies in thickness by at least ±6mm, in some spots the extremes are within 80mm of each other.

 

We had a bit of rain these few days. 110ish mm over the last 14 days, 25 of which decided to check in on us yesterday. So our run got flooded.

Not having the space for a truck load of woodchips, nor the time to spare, I got a couple of 23kg bales of sawdust. BTW .6USD pr kg for sawdust, what's wrong with the world?

The chickens were quite perplexed as to the bale when it arrived, and definitely not sold on it either when I had spread it out, pic in comments. I'm going to see how it works before spreading another one.

Usually I don't have to pump water from this area before November, but I guess that life ain't fair and the world is mean, so we started the pump this morning. Next 5 months (we'll I guess it'll be 6 months if luck be) we'll be pumping about 26m^3 from this area daily.

There's a Danish children's song that starts with something like "The farmer is always busy on his farm" and then lists the chores. I wonder why I that was stuck in my head as I wandered about the hardware store looking for bedding material.

 

The pic may not be nsfw ... but the words uttered at the time certainly were!

 

I am the lucky owner of a 20m blackberry hedge. Last years yield was about 15kg and thus year looks to be the same.

But here's the thing, 15kg is far too much to make jam of, so last year I experimented with wine. I got this kit https://brew2bottle.co.uk/products/better-brew-hedgerow-wine-kit-23l and just followed the instructions. And it was a great success, everyone who's tasted it have even been to nice to say it was bad or have actually complimented the wine. But I still have half the wine left and now it's time for 2023s harvest.

I'm still considering wine, jam and some juice but... What would you do with a lot of blackberries?
