I have a 3rd-party bit insert for my Leatherman that can check voltage on batteries, so I'm set for this problem (volty by pcpoodle)

Something on-battery would be cool, but with that Duracell PowerCheck implementation never seemed right to me, it seemed to show the battery having more and more power the harder and harder I pushed on the spots. 🤷

That is the silver lining to having this shitty beard -- when somebody inevitably gives you crap about it, you can look confused while feeling your smooth upper lip, eyes widening, then feel the beard and yell 'what the fuck!?' with an alarmed look on your face and run away

Yeah, and you build skills and reusable code base that'll be useful for automating/ simplifying future tasks 😎

Some years of this, you get to the point where you can solve damn near everything quickly and people think you're some magical shit-wizard

I like the (correct) implication that you'd only see that sticker on a truck 👌

Ironically somebody probably had that idea while paging binders full of pre-Trump popular Republicans

You aren't going to eat the glue sticks right?

You are going to eat all the rice chex, poop in box after so it's the right weight, use glue sticks to seal back up, and return back to the store as buying the wrong variant. Right??

😟

https://lemmy.ml/post/15882678 has good tips for exactly that

Yabba dabba don't, please 😂

It's a bad idea not to when it'd be a guaranteed loss

Flipside 4 wallet, put a clip on the lanyard to clip to my shorts so doesn't slip out of my pocket. I had a custom thin RFID made that I slipped between the outside of the lid's rfid-blocking plate and the plastic lid itself to get into my apt building's various doors. Wallet has all my cards and key, and cash for the rare times I have it.

I always carry a victorinox classic sd sak with a big orange Paracord lanyard on it so I don't lose track of it. It's black and limited edition with a cool skeleton carrying a Halloween bucket graphic.

I carry a Spyderco manbug as well, good slicer, small unscary size. Has super blue steel, so cool patina near the edge. I have a clip on that as well so doesn't fall out of my shorts pocket.

I have a modified Leatherman style ps as well, removed the scissors (scissors better on the sak anyways) and added a little titanium prybar that has a sharp enough edge for opening packages. That has a carabineer-style clip that clips on edge of my pocket.

I wear an apple watch ultra, good for apple pay, timers/alarms and texts. Siri to check stuff like sports scores in a pinch. Negates me needing actual phone, I tend to leave iPhone 13 mini in a cheap Etsy "Arnie" case (cameras are barrels of gun from that movie Commando) at home, unless I feel like I'll need the entertainment of f'ing with my phone wherever I'm going

I wear wedding ring out always, bracelet my wife made me often, next to the apple watch. Often have a mechanical wrist watch on other wrist, varies which (have a collection.) I often wear a couple/few Happy Beads bracelets with the mechanical watch to put the finishing touches.

Vast majority of the time I'm just wearing sandals, shorts & T-shirt (I work from home).

The above is my unique and probably awful/questionable taste, more of an admission than edc and/or fashion advice 😂😢

I don't think I'm jaded, I'm actually hopeful Dems will do the right thing here. I just have a fundamental thing where I can't vote for somebody I don't want in office.

Not sweating votes on the site, just like the conversation.

I believe you believe what you said completely. I shouldn't have said 'mild hyperbole', that's wrong since that would mean an intentional exaggeration.

I do think the biggest trouble Trump would cause if re-elected that we couldn't address once he's out is him not leaving. Feels like a too-high-odds deal of American electoral democracy ending with him. In that way I think Trump is a bigger issue than even your language conveys.

I have the luxury of throwing away my vote not living in a swing state, but I think others have similar voting instincts/morals/whatever that do live in those swing and near-swing states, and it will make the difference and let Trump in office ☹️ Right now I have to hope Dems will realize Biden wouldn't win before it's too late to replace him. That said, I bet they do the right thing; even with all the noise and biases in polls I think this is big enough where it'll become apparent in the data in the coming weeks regardless, and I can't see them going forward with what they will realize is a can't-win candidate. They'll wake the fuck up 🤞
