Leave it to the demon slayers to stand up against evil. Metal as fuck.

Based on the way they lean I’d say - mid summer and humid. Sticking to one leg.

You’d be supprised to see how many industries probably have some sort of backups in place for power … But it’s typically more costly to run and they may not have plans in place for extended outages. At the end of the day it comes down to money.

What’s frustrating about the current situation with the power companies is people just are unaware they are getting bled or don’t have options for recourse… Whereas monopolies and large companies are getting (fuck if I know why) white glove treatment and discounts. It makes little sense to be deferential to these massive companies - as while they promise jobs, economic benifits, and the moon itself… Data shows this rarely materializes. Its baffling.

Datacenter. The end.

Datacenters build their own micro power plants for uptime anyway. This is a line item and an investment. Little Timmy’s parents need to feed little Timmy… Not finance some techbro or deluded CLevel’s fomo into the next big bubble.

I’ve been complemented before in passing by someone and not felt the overwhelming urge to immediately engage in a relationship with them. Surely, context and place matters, and it can get confusing sometimes… But I think a “sorry, I was just appreciating ____” occasionally might be worth the net gain.

… And you can phrase something in a way that isn’t misinterpreted. Its situational. I’ve certainly told women a color suits them or complemented a look, hairstyle, what have you… Making certain to filter it in a way that is as complimentary as it can be without toeing that line. Its not that hard and frankly it’s worth seeing someone light up a bit when they get some positive reinforcement.

Mandarins out of nowhere with a chair!

I second this. I am currently still using the waxed canvas bag from the distilled collection and all I’ve had to do is replace the strap from wear. Its seen rain, snow, and shitloads of abuse that would cause these cheaper bags to just disintegrate. Its old as shit by now but aside from being well worn - is still perfectly functional.

The thumbnail is hitting all the uncanny valley checkboxes * shudders *

Rack tracks exist for this and if you are looking to not get smushed or see your equipment take a fall I’d strongly recommend it.

For a smaller lighter rack many racks can be bolted down and pulled out / rotated.

I second this. Especially if you’ve the means to vent it appropriately. It will help isolate noise.

And if youre feeling like some minor woodworking… They sell door framing for next to nothing at big box stores… A thinner one would vastly improve your light switch situation ;)

Let’s normalize not driving rifts into conversations that otherwise didn’t have them… And maybe not turn every conversation into a virtue signaling shitshow.

Never will understand why someone saying something positive about y must immediately mean x is excluded and should be maligned. Its a disgusting tactic typically taken by cults and ner-do-wells who benifit from the rift being widened.

Edit: it’s uplifting to see that people are tolerating that behavior less. I think it’s high time we started building better bonds with people in our communities rather than letting some hatefarm drive more rifts into it.

The brainworm won. And while Im not a fan of eugenics… I think america needs to do the rest of the world a solid and sterilize that 37% to protect the human race.

It becomes one of the other two when your DPS decides to stand in the no-no stuff.

While irrelevant, you’d be incorrect. Again. But let’s add some finality here using your own words.

As I already said just because most of his content is “talking head”, doesn’t mean he can’t recommend products. Which he clearly has done.

Welcome to this thread and, consequently, what everyone was pointing out to you.

Review, v.

examine or assess (something) formally with the possibility or intention of instituting change if necessary.

Dare I ask if such a formal thing might include numbers, data, and other specific metrics outside of opinions? Perish the thought.

Recommend, v.

to put forward (something) as one’s choice for a wise or proper course of action

It seems between your slip of the tongue and … Actual logic that you’d be definitively… Incorrect.

I’ll extend the olive branch in saying, as mentioned prior (Venn): there are some overlaps so you’d be forgiven for not fully grasping the difference… However the things that define those differences leave no question as to which they are - and ignoring that simply makes you … well… ignorant.

I mentioned before this wasn’t an argument. It still isnt. Its a dunce making a spectacle of his own foolishness. If you wish to continue making such a display I invite you to do so alone. I won’t be party to embarrassing you further.

Look. The last paragraph said what needed to be said. Its apparent its not a review and if you can’t see that… You’re either beyond help or a troll that is succeeding only in making themself look like those inmates from idiocracy. If you feel you need to overanalyze my reaponses to protect your ego… Do what you need to friend; it doesn’t change reality. If you can’t address the obvious flaws in your logic on the original topic you are simply running from the truth.

Both did the job of explaining different functions of the dishwasher and demonstrating, as I mentioned, that expensive stuff did not “clean more better.” To that end he literally had things independantly tested (for the sake of highlighting powders being just as-good.) I’ll go on to point out that he made several comments about pods not using the pre wash.

Again, as mentioned, even with him recommending a product… That does not make him a reviewer. If anything it was a mild advertisement … On a talking head show.

To go back to what spawned this discussion - I wasn’t arguing with you. I simply thought you couldn’t understand what the show was… Or perhaps could not differentiate. The comments (initially) sought to teach.

But, exasperatingly, here we are.

At this point you are nitpicking and being pedantic to attempt to “win” an agurment not being had. Were not even discussing the original video in question. If I wanted to approach this with the same (pedantic) energy: I’d simply focus on it being obvious that anyone with a bit of sense would have noticed that the review seemed to lack… Price, length of stands, lumens… The list goes on. If it were a review it would contain an awful lot more numbers and an awful lot less personal opinion.

Square peg: round hole. I genuinely hope we leave it there.

His dish washing video went to great lenghts to explain how something works and why hot water matters with an additional comment on different products and cost not being everything. Like any continuing series he did dive deeper into various subjects… and he did suggest some things which he used or liked. That doesn’t make it a review. Venn diagram. Its an opinion not a review.

Point in case: was he reviewing kettles in his recent water boiling video? No. But… but he ran a timer!

Short generalized answer: it depends on the strip / strand… But if the strand has a brick at the end that is converting ac - > dc with 2 wires you can typically replace that with a better driver easily. It gets far more specific when a data line is introduced. It won’t fix cheap LEDs outright but it can change how they behave.
