Things that make you go Wow 😲

I would apply super glue to that immediately. Set it and forget it.

as noted above i tried that right off the bat and the blood flow was enough that it wouldnt cure on it quickly enough, might help keep it closed without a bandaid now, but iv been using the liquid bandage stuff that my wife keeps on hand.
 
I disturbed my first meditator today, sitting lotus position down by the stream in 20° weather.
I came along clackity bang. Sorry buddy.

Please learn to solder if working on electronics

Edit - this is a $2,000 LED marathon clock. Last person in tore out the Charge indicator LED wires (behind the crimp bundle.
Under the electrical tape are two barrel connectors with the wires going in 1 end like a closed-end crimp.
They replaced the two batteries and didn't tighten the spade connectors, so they were loose, occasionally disconnected.

These clocks are out in the sun and the cold, and travel in the back of box trucks.
Not always handled gingerly. All connections need to be secured with silicone - apparently they forgot.

I replaced the power cord while I was at it. there was rub through damage to the point where copper was showing (it was the ground wire)
and there was no grommet where it passed into the metal case. They created their own stress relief with a plastic wire tie down and a sheet metal screw.
So I drilled a new hole, and added a proper grommet and internally secured the cord.

Transformer blew a few houses down across the Greenway so about 200' away. Took them over half an hour to finally kill the power. I have plenty of video, but no idea how to post it.

We don't have enough resources to host video. Upload it to YouTube, then share it here!

Local news might pick it up too
 
Want to warn everyone that on Meta I received a Ad for Specialized Bikes with 80% off. I did click on the Ad put in some information to see the final price with shipping but did not like the way it looked. Went to Specialized site no bike sales. Went back to Meta and Canyon bikes showed up same 80% off. The thing is they give you 6 hours to purchase the product. Big Scam. Wonder if anyone else have seen this yet.

Seen that for a while. If it looks too good to be true, I don't click on it.
 
Have you seen the Edge 20/25? Oddly probably all 90% of people would need.

I don’t even remember that device. The review was from 2015 so I guess that’s why.

The 130 does about everything a 530 does which is pretty sweet….all the power stuff, navigation, climbs, phone notifications, etc. pretty good for such a small package.

I’ll probably only use it for collecting the data and not viewing it. The screen is too small for me to see anything on it.
 
I guess no one is fucking around after the Texas disaster. Between nixle and the emergency alerts I must have had no less than 10 warning about flash flooding.
Lol. In my town there is a Summer concert series which was rained out tonight on the plaza so it was moved to the HS. The mayor posted that people should stay off the roads, but they'll pick you up and bring you to the HS (because Joey Fatone was paid for.)
 
No joke apparently, Somerset County / Rt 22 corridor got slammed. And many other places too I'm sure.
I just got home from picking up my daughter stuck in Plainfield after her car hit some debris and damaged something under the car and was not drivable. It was 7:30pm when I went to get her. The area south of 22 was a battlezone. We couldn't find a way back to Warren and just circled around for hours. Google showed open roads which were not. Lots of stranded car everywhere, including these three bro SUVs who apparently wasn't big enough, as they were abandoned when we passed at around 11pm. We finally got to 287 from Washington rd.IMG_20250715_000246.jpg
