We found out a while ago that plumbing pipes aren’t the best way to ground a house for a variety of reasons, and this is why ufers (grounding to foundation steel) and ground rods are now the NEC standard. Also, this is why bonding wires are important as well. If the plumbing were bonded to a proper dwelling ground system, the current would find a direct path to ground and trip the responsible breaker, instead of using the gas lines as a big ass resistor and creating the light show we see here.

Better yet to just have a bond to the gas and water pipes. In this instance, any current introduced to the plumbing has a direct connection to ground, which will allow current to flow freely and trip the breaker.

Underestimating the bed rail loading. I’d love to make a Ford joke, but let’s be real, all truck beds would crumple like that.

Watch it for the plot

Right. I’m all for find a way to tip the balance of power away from the ownership class, but willful damage only screws you. Check your rental contract, a landlord can and will sue you for negligent and purposeful damage to their property. They’ll also sing your rental history . Plus, if you’re still living there, you’re only inconveniencing yourself with the repair process.

Until your toilet stops up and floods dookie all over your stuff a week later

Ok calm down Satan, I still have to live here in the near future

You certainly have a way with words, good sir.

The Sears catalog was multipurpose

It must be location dependent, but our local marketplace is a goldmine (it also might just be an FB group, not sure where all that’s at these days). Every now and again you get some dufus trying to pull some shady shit, but this is a small town where most everyone knows each other, and people are pretty quick to call it out.

I have a 10th gen x1, I’m plenty happy with it

I haven’t had Facebook in years, but I’ll admit the marketplace is pretty damn good for finding secondhand deals. Luckily (unluckily) my wife doesn’t give two shits about being spied on so I browse it from her phone

I just want to use my player of choice, and play a locally hosted file. I don’t want to deal with the visual compression artifacts or choppy sound that comes with streaming through a poorly coded player, I’d rather run a full bitrate file through VLC on my own rig that’s tied into my surround sound system in peace.

I was a few years out of HS when those blasters became more wide spread (my HTC M7 had one, though 6 years too late), and how I wish I had one back then.

Incognito is on your client side browser in that the browser doesn’t retain any trace of the current session once you close the tab. The search engine still knows what you whacked off to.

I love my 6.5, but I still really want a 30/06

Shocked Cleesachu

Bingo. Same goes for pretty much any show from the 90s and beyond that didn’t get an HD remaster. It’s the same quality with older shows on any legit streaming service.

Anyone can setup a honeypot with the right knowledge and resources. The kicker is to go about it in such a way to attract users and not tip anyone off of ill intent.

I’d imagine the receiver’s location could possibly be tracked, but the bigger thing of restricting communications to officials channels while on duty is to ensure anyone on the ship doesn’t let slip sensitive information that could compromise the mission or ship’s safety.
