    The official "WTF" thread

    I made a tasteless joke to the wife about the pilots just forgetting to put on the brakes. 5 people are dead in the van the plane hit. I begged forgiveness because it was uncalled for. I have since seen the NTSA press conference where they said that at the time of collision the brakes were not...

    The official "WTF" thread

    I won't mention the major corporation. IIRC, it was a modbus transfer. It used freedos to copy modbus registers over an RS232 connection. The original code was 30 years old and was "public domain" Unix code. the company just put a trademark statement on the top of the script and wanted $1500...

    3D printed hardware thread

    I just spent more money than I wanted on a 3D printer at Costco so it was a bargain! Right? It is a Creality K2 combo bundle. https://www.costco.com/p/-/creality-k2-combo-multi-color-3d-printer-bundle/4000413591?langId=-1 I think that this is a pfb-203w mount. I am looking for a base for the...

    Should I remove my front gate?

    @Flintstone61 i like reading other’s replies. Neighbor had several packages delivered while out of town and they sat outside his gate. Removing a couple of bars and building a hinged package door would have helped there. If some other square tube were welded perpendicular to the gate, they could...

    Should I remove my front gate?

    I've seen so many movies where perps are attacking and as the victim is trying to unlock the doors, they drop the keys. If you had a remote on the gate, you could get in and if you even drop the keys, you would be safe. Unless of course firearms were involved! That was never covered in the movies!
