And a Sgt Harriman for good measure.

Drill bits are coated in tungsten carbide. Sometimes. There are a variety of coatings.

The drill bits you’re buying at the big box store are high speed still with some kind of coating to help them last a little longer. The specialty drill bits you’re buying for working on metal are also HSS with a different coating and probably different tip geometry.

End mills are milling/lathe inserts can be HSS or carbide, also with some tungsten coating. Importantly, these are sintered, and made out of dust.

Tungsten carbide is waaaay too brittle to work as a drill bit.

You ain’t putting it anywhere. It’s getting delivered and staying where they put it.

A single 5 foot cube of tungsten would weigh about as much as an above average sized single family home.

On the inverse I’ve found it to be quite bad at that. I can generally count on the AI answer to be wrong, fundamentally.

Might depend on your industry. It’s garbage at g code.

My money is still on Paul Le Roux.

Head of garlic in to 2 sticks of butter on the stove, in to the potatoes when they’re ready. Skins and all.

Nommmmmm

Kinda depends how you like your potatoes. I generally like them a little lumpy, but I think the twelve or so of us in the lumpy crew nationwide lose that fight every Thanksgiving.

But! The ineffective ass potato masher does a real good job of breaking up ground meat in to super tiny bits in the pan for stuff like Taco meat.

Is it really Plato or just his shadow?

Hey if the batteries are that old you should replace them anyway. Every year or two it needs new ones. They will eventually start leaking battery acid and fuck up a good flashlight

That’s far more than I want from a flashlight.

On/off. That’s literally all it needs to do. I’d like to be able to plug it in and charge it but quite frankly if I can’t get that without it just going on/off with the single press of a button I’ll replace batteries until the day I fucking die.

I use a pocket flashlight daily. It is an integral part of my job. I use flashlight in a wide variety of light conditions and different levels of reflectivity.

I have never wanted my flashlight to flash on and off, change brightness, or any of the other random crap they force in to what should be the simplest tool in my toolbox.

Press button. Change state of light. That is literally the only thing it needs to do.

Fastenal them nuts amirite??!

MSC?

It is. Fat and sugar are not the same thing. Hot pockets contain about 25 grams of fat and 10 grams of sugar. Depending on the product. The label does not indicate any HFCS but the effect described above would be achieved with any sugar and most sugar substitutes.

The majority of calories from hot pockets are from empty carbs, and that is what’s causing you to feel hungry after eating them. 72g of carbs to 43g of combined fat and protein, and only 2g of fiber.

I would but arson is a crime

Listen all I’m saying is that if we were so far left that Bernie was center right on policy the country would be a much better place for everyone.

I live by this philosophy

If you charge me more to make both our lives easier, I will make both our lives harder out of spite.

It will cost you more than the fee you tried to squeeze out of me, and I will have spent nothing.

WKRP Cincinnati, first annual turkey drop. A piece of legendary comedy history. Low key a jab at a failed real life attempt to release 2 million balloons in Cincinnati that resulted in two deaths.

As God as my witness I thought turkeys could fly. We’ve all been there.

“MORE!”
believe it or not also Kylo Ren

So we’ve been down that road. There are company computers available for that purpose, and training has been provided. It’s a joke we tell each other around here that the only training we get is on the app.

For the handful of folks who are legally prohibited from having a smart phone, the state has requirements in place that they be notified of any schedule changes in advance, they’re often the first to know.

The CEO frequently holds little meetings and fields questions, that’s the next route.

I don’t know what they were sold or why they’re so insistent that we download the app, but their feverish insistence that we download it sure makes me suspicious.
