Also virus: This is not my house, this is not my beautiful wife

Better yet, having a (halfway decent) multimeter and knowing how to use it is huge. A good one can test capacitance, but simply tracing voltage isn’t too tricky.

Hope the box you mounted it to was rated for a ceiling fan :D

Working with electricity is actually quite simple in a lot of respects, and I make a lot of money mainly because people are afraid of it (and rightfully so, me too). But many of the small things like changing plugs/switches out and hanging fixtures can be done easily by anyone with a basic knowledge hand tool use and basic rules like a) turn off the main if you don’t know which breaker you’re working with, b) check that it’s off with a meter or hot stick, c) even then, don’t directly touch the shiny parts, and d) match your colors exactly as you found them (take pictures to be safe). Granted I’ve been doing this for 10+ years, but even a layman can save themselves a service call with a couple basics and YouTube is a great resource for such things.

Crack is whack, or at least that’s what I keep telling myself

You don’t have join them, but you can also not see a god damned thing. Unless they’re doing something that screws over good, innocent people, especially on a wide scale, I’m minding my own business.

Bullshit, they’re building a database to track all of us, and then some janky “AI” program will determine who’s worthy of staying alive.

"Open"AI

They’re just pissy that it outperforms their proprietary pieces of shit, thus the psyop campaign.

Not with that attitude

Or in the near presence of the FCC or similar agency

Jeez, it’s almost just straight not worth it to fly these days once you factor everything in. Luckily I haven’t had the need in a few years, but damn.

It seems like it is a private company contracted by DHS to roll this out, and that is where I have an issue. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t think biometrics is the best route, but I absolutely do not trust a 3rd party random corp to have and securely store all of my sensitive biometrics, not do I trust them to not sell it for an additional revenue stream. Same reason why that company Clear was kinda bullshit, and how it was cost effective to have agents “selling” you on the service at the airport.

“Does this shirt make me look gay?”

“How about now?”

But only after the morning seagulls have turned it into their version of guano.

I wonder how effective at 308 round is to a drone, even just putting a sizable hole in the wing. And that’s assuming it’s causing at an altitude that’s within range.

Drink verification can

A regular carburetor, but old

Bingo. Here in my area of CA, all project go through plan check, and larger commercial projects that will be utilized by the public are given even more attention. Engineers are not immune from doing stupid shit and running bad calculations, and ultimately it falls on the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) or whatever their local variant is that approved it.

Haha yeah it was an old flip phone circa 2005, unscrewed the antenna and packed the bowl there and through the charge port that was one of those super wide Kyocera types. Not our best idea, but it makes for a fun story.
