Recently read that something like half to two-thirds of net traffic is search bot traffic. In number quantity, not size of traffic.

It was in google news. I added a marker for "motorcycle". So it showed up in the news feed of items. Takes guts for guys to respond/comment on a thread about naked men.

Not the first naked rider, but a decent video. Did anyone notice the sticker on his chest moved? Was this two different rides? Was there a pit stop somewhere? I was not impressed by the burnout. What did that prove, other than prove that people get pissed off when you do it in a crowd. Hell, he probably wouldn't have a warrant out if he had not done that.

edit: btw, Germans don't get very upset by nudity. My first night in Germany, in a Frankfurt hotel, I checked out the basement gym/weight room/pool... and the pool area was naked people. Nice that it was all female, but also appeared little or no interest in males. C'est la vie

It does begin to sound like ammo selection is for a person's technique and grip. Entirely possible. I'm one who never had a problem with the Winchester white box, but repeated problems with most all Remington ammo. Remington is on that Chuck Hawks list and I will try what is recommended.

Maybe why I like revolvers. Never have feed/jam with those. (Not impossible, just not likely.)

Haha, my first job started at $1.15 minumum wage. Went up to $1.20 minumum wage that Summer and was big increase.

And there were tons of jobs at minimum wage. Easy to find one.

So 11.50 is 10 times the minimum wage of 1968. Impressive not.

edit: everything is relative, tuition at OSU was 125 bucks a quarter plus fees and books.

Truth About Guns article on G19 gen4 RSA says Glock will send you new RSA (Recoil Spring Assembly) for free.

Glock gen 4 Recoil Spring Replacement Program

It says for the ones sold before July 27, 2011 but maybe this is one by serial number. Call them and ask. It certainly might be one by the problem demonstrated.

 

...The new springs—called the “Recoil Spring Assembly (RSA)” in Glock spiel—was troublesome. At best. Owners reported Failure to Feed (FTF) and Failure to Eject (FTE) problems as soon as the first Gen4 G17s hit the market.

Users cured these FTF and FTE problems by installing a set of Gen3 springs with a little adapter. Glock moved quickly to head off a PR nightmare and offered replacement RSAs to its customers. In Glock-speak, this was called an “upgrade,” not a recall...

It also says the 12th, 13th and 14th rounds in the magazine did not feed very well. And was unable to load the 15th round.

edit: btw, magazines are notorious for feed problems. Would you say that all of your magazines had the same problem.

I hate reloads. Always problems. (My own reloads work perfect, that tells me something.) I ran across a Chuck Hawks article about ammo selection, usage and reliability. Worth showing. (Based upon the work of Massad Ayoob, Evan Marshall and Ed Sanow.)

The short list for 9mm (HP carry cartridges, not target. For quality firearms made after 1985.):

Special (Listed as overall best):

Cor-Bon 9mm 115 grain +P Jacketed Hollowpoint.

Standard pressure:

Federal 115 grain JHP (9BP)

Winchester Silvertip 115 grain (X9MMSHP)

Federal 124 grain Hydra-shok (P9HS1)

Remington 115 grain JHP (R9MM1) (older guns)

High pressure:

Remington 115 grain +P JHP (R9MM6) (If jamming occurs with standard rounds.)

Avoid:

Federal Hydra-Shok 9mm 147 grain JHP (P9HS2)
Winchester 147 grain 9mm Silvertip Subsonic JHP (X9MMST147)
Winchester 147 grain 9mm Super-X Subsonic (XSUB9MM)
Remington 147 grain 9mm JHP (R9MM8)
Remington 147 grain 9mm Golden Saber JHP (GS9MMC)

Never carry:

Wolf, CDM - Mexico, military surplus

could be worse, I had one cheap pos that would throw the slide off when fired

limp wrist possibly, but if he's accurately on target, dunno.Try two hand grip and see if fail-to-feed/eject goes away.

check the operator's manual for a specific type ammo. Many firearms are designed/tuned for a specific load.

And many firearms won't settle down until several hundred rounds are fired.

Or won't settle down till disassembled, cleaned, lubed, and reassembled.

And what type/manf/load is fired that fails?

Any 9mm better fire correctly with Winchester white box, or I'd be upset.

Soaking most of the bugs and crud will make it come off much easier. Some sort of degreaser for the goop stuff.

The bike brite does work nicely on the engine in particular, and other metal parts.

I've used Simple Green or that purple stuff on rims and swing arm crude, just to get it started removing.

The Honda/Harley quick spray and polish is exactly that. A quick shine. (original spray cleaner &polish)

The Honda shop I worked at used Lemon Pledge and pretty much got the same results.

and now for a completely alternate view...

The first thing that happens, is the employers hire a percentage fewer people to adjust the new costs. The remaining minimum wage employees do their work and the work of the ones not hired. The effect is immediate.

Then when prices might go up, the end effect is not a collective gain to the wage earners that were looking for it. It becomes profit for some one else. (Along with an increase in unemployment.)

yup, screwed again... them, us, everyone (Except the ones that will take the opportunity to profit.)

eventually it might settle down, and be somewhat "normal". But don't count on it.

Google MIL-PRF-24758, that rubber hose is not MIL-PRF-24758 ship-board conduit, it's a US Navy specification also and not Nasa.  The conduit has a flexible corrugated metal inner core with a weatherproof outer coating.  It's not a rubber inner core with a stainless mesh outer cover like in your image.  Where are you getting the info on that stuff from or a link to the pictures?  I'm curious to see what they are talking about now.

Agreed. The lack of a metal core is confusing. Almost nothing on board spec ships is unshielded. It would only make sense to me if all the wiring was itself shielded. Space stuff has crazy requirements for dealing with free oxygen that attacks stuff, and an electrical effect where current will flow on the surfaces like St Elmo's Fire. On top of the cold and hot and vacuum problems. Zinc boils, silver corrodes, metals loose strength...it's a pain.

Would I design something like that? No idea, it depends on the requirements.

Here's where it came from, and since it's not apparently their field, they just might have got it wrong. I've been unable to trace the image that they used to anywhere else. I wanted the windshield impact image, and the other one came along with it. I should have looked closer, but it was 6am.

edit: I had mentioned MIL-PRF-24758 since it appears to have a sub category of flexible non-metallic conduit. That's what this looked like. I haven't yet looked up the actual spec, so I could be wrong. And yes, it's a Navy spec. When I was working there weren't many specs for space. Humor is, that if it were a US Navy satellite, it probably used Navy ship specs...

Not sure about the first picture but a can tell you at 100% the image on the right ain't no electrical cable.  That's a piece of fiber reinforced rubber hose.

Just quoting NASA, but I have seen electrical conduits like that one. The wires aren't in there maybe?

edit: I looked, that one came from a satellite, not the space shuttle.

edit again: What surprises me, is that there isn't a stainless steel mesh on the inside or outside for electromagnetic protection.

yet another edit: It meets the requirements of MIL-PRF-24758 for ship-board conduit, flexible weatherproof.

Yup, even that dust isn't a big deal. Up to 40,000 tons of dust from space fall on the Earth every year.

On the other hand, moving in orbit like the space shuttle or space station does, has a significant impact.

This is a .06mm dust particle hit on a window, and a 1mm hit on an electrical cable:

Minor detail, but they did fail, sort of.... General Motors Corporation (GMC) disolved in bankruptcy, and was restructured as General Motors Company (GMC). That company name was also owned, and hadn't been used for a long time. It is now the current name.

I've seen comments in the news that basically said "trade places". If one of the family members had a gun to their head, what would they say then, to a good Samaritan and a rescue? Probably the exact opposite.

Don't bother trying to understand people like that. They will say anything at anytime to satisfy themselves only, and not for the common good. Essentially evil by their behavior.

It's very quiet on the memorial.

Yes, or you get escorted off or arrested. Sort of like pee'ing on the Alamo. Big mistake.

too late, suddenly moved to Miami Florida, last week, per facebook

Most shops are gone. I don't get repairs anymore. The harsh reality is most shops will charge close to what a new pair of boots would cost. Even at half the new cost, I'd rather go ahead and get new.

The last decent old time place I knew of appears to be gone.

btw, unless it's made with a Goodyear last (leather and stitched), it probably won't be repairable anyway.

The one piece molded and glued soles don't generally get repaired.

edit: after having some boots fall apart, I started buying Converse for Summer, they last longer. And still buying Wolverine, for Winter..

Somehow, it will have an additional unique patented sound.

If you're too lazy to make one, these folding stoves will burn about anything.

Sure. Any insurance company knows the actuary odds of what is what.

That's why they always ask color of bike, jacket and helmet, do you wear one, etc etc. (NOT)

They don't give a crap, too many other factors are way more important to calculating risk.
