Machine screws / bolts with a # sign are sized by gauge, not the major diameter of the screw. The gauge system for screws is weird and dumb, but we still use it for small stuff.

Per fastener direct, gauge can be converted to diameter using the following formula:

Diameter (inches) = 0.060 + (Gauge number × 0.013)

A #6 machine screw has a 9/64" or 0.138" (approx 3.6mm for our metric friends) major diameter and is offered in standard pitches of 32, 40, 48, and 80 threads per inch (At least, that’s what McMaster Carr stocks. The 80tpi is likely for a specialty application.).

I’m fairly certain that the unified screw spec stops around 3 or 4" , so 6" is well into custom/non-standard sizing.

Then why bother commenting?

That’s totally fair. It was not my intent to conflate people who aren’t willing/able to take on the burden of living their truth in a hostile society with people who just lack the ability to reflect on their situation, but I can see how you arrived there from my comment and I’m sorry to have put you in that position.

I realize this maybe reads like some slop-generated apology but I swear that isn’t the case, it’s just my formal writing tone!

There’s an unfortunately large amount of people who completely lack any ability to introspect or think critically

Yuck, who puts mustard on a gyro? I’ve only ever seen them made with the gyro meat, onions, tomatoes, and tzatziki

Hawaiian pizza was, however, invented in Canada

I don’t see how someone else changing their last name has any appreciable effect on my life. If it makes them happy, I guess I’d be happy for them?

8gb of ram shouldn’t necessarily be an issue in and of itself, although it’s on the low end these days. The memory is also old enough that it may just be failing.

Some searching suggests you could use something like Memtest86 to run diagnostics on the memory.

If it isn’t a hardware issue, you might have luck trying a Linux distro on it. Linux generally runs better on older machines than windows, and some distros are specifically designed to be lightweight and consume as few resources as possible.

YESSSSS

Class and job-specific gear can now be stored in the armoire.

Almost anyone [with the funding] can run for office

FTFY. I’m not independently wealthy and can’t afford to quit my job and campaign for office, even locally. Nor am I interested in selling myself out to corporate interests to get the funding I would need.

It’s easy to be holier-than-thou behind a keyboard, though. Why don’t you run for office?

Edit: lmao, the keyboard warrior seems to have blocked me

Maybe they should stop platforming these geriatric fucks and make space for the next generation then.

The cylinder must remain unharmed

A calendar is not an inventory management system.

From the sidebar:

Must be SFW. No gore, porn, extreme violence, blood, corpses, or similarly disturbing content.

Emphasis mine.

What is it, then? Maybe a convection oven?

Idk, not sure I really want to live in a post-apocalyptic world. Life is already hard enough as is.

That’s exactly where I learned about it! They ran it as a worldbuilding tool for the Ethersea campaign.

I was under the impression that OnePlus was starting to wind down its operations, so I’m kind of surprised by the new product announcements we’re getting now

How does half a pickup truck compare to a large boulder the size of a small boulder?
