“A pickle for the knowing one” was a book written completely without punctuation. When people bitched about it. He printed a second edition that that last few ages were nothing but punctuation with the instructions to put them where you want them.
The only rule on punctuation that I ever learned in English was:
If in doubt - leave it out
Anyway, I fully acknowledge that my cellphone autocorrected my first comment wrongly and that “its” should have had an apostrophe. I’m just not going to edit it, because it makes no sense in any other way, so no one should be able to misunderstand the sentence and the grammar nazi added nothing of value.
Heh Nah, man you’re good. You’ll never see me be a grammar Nazi. I mentioned that book because Sam O Nella did a YouTube video about the guy that wrote that book.
Odo has absolutely always returned the cart. In fact, I’d say he’s tracked down everyone he can find that hasn’t returned the cart and forced them to return one in front of him.
Nah, Odo believes in rules and order too much to force others to return their cart when there’s no rule saying they need to do so.
He doesn’t like it when people leave their carts in random locations, which is why he leaves his very neatly where it’s not going to be a danger of rolling into a car or the middle of the lot, but he definitely isn’t going to return it himself when it’s someone else’s job to do so.
Yep, and he’d probably return other people’s carts too while grunting about the decay of federation morals and wishing he could put them in the brig for a few hours.
I don’t think he would put other people’s carts away.
He would track them down and make them do it themselves.
While grumbling about the decay of federation morals…
And obviously he put them in the brig while going over all laws and regulations to figure out if he can lock them up. He does that every time. It would be improper not to double check.
Also he will arrest Jake and Nog and drag them into detention for Nog’s quarter scheme. Quark will feign being outraged but then will insist he be included next time so he can teach Nog how to not get caught.
These are shit. Aging wheels on YouTube did a review on them.
They have lead acid batteries, so it’ll trim a full yard once or twice on a charge for about 6 months. After a year or so you have to replace the batteries. That’s like 400 bucks worth of batteries every year.
I believe this is the same model the Aging Wheels guy on youtube bought, and then the inevitable happened. You could desulfate the batteries, but he stuffed it full of custom lithium cell battery packs instead.
You are correct that using lead-acid in this application is a really bad choice. Even deep cycle batteries will have a crap energy-to-weight ratio. This was the result of the manufacturer (or more likely Home Depot themselves, who specified the product) to rush something, anything out the door to jump on the bandwagon as fast as possible. You see this shit coming out of China all the time, like the little “neighborhood electric vehicles” that in their stock trim leave the factory with like two lead-acid golf cart batteries in the back that give it a range of approximately eleven feet.
I was at Home Depot trying to get a gas powered hedge trimmer. I have almost an acre of property, and there are tons and tons of bushes around the house.
Salesman says I should buy electric. I tell him yes, but I’d have to buy another battery or two just so I can do all the work in one day. Which makes it significantly more expensive than gas.
“Ah that’s the thing. You just replace everything with electric, and you get a battery with each device!”
Okay, so, what if I want to cut the grass, do the edging, and trim the hedges in one day? I understand the need to switch to electric and reduce emissions. But the number of towns banning gas powered lawn care equipment is just ignoring the obvious. Electric is simply not practical for anyone with a remotely large property.
The secret is not to buy your battery packs from Home Depot. The markup on those “genuine” Ryobi packs is insane, especially given they’re just stuffed full of the same low quality 18650 cells as all the other Chinese garbage anyway.
I have a small fleet of Ryobi cordless stuff by now: A mower, a string trimmer, a blower, and one of those inflator thingies. I just buy the knockoff battery packs online for 1/3-1/4 of the cost and so far I’ve found the knockoffs to have just as much or more capacity and to be more reliable than the Ryobi branded ones. Home Depot wants $189 for a 40v, 4.0Ah pack. Or you can buy a “6.0Ah” knockoff which is probably actually still 4.0 online for $57. The price gulf on the 18v packs is even greater.
The only motivation she has to return the cart is that she finished her shopping and forgot to buy six cases of a cheap off brand coffee that is on sale at the Costco she just left.
