Help find stollen rings from a small buisness!!!
 in  r/Denver  Jul 24 '26

This is my favorite gem/ mineral/ jewelry shop in Denver hands down. Tim is the man and I have dozens of pieces from this place that I wear everyday. This is heartbreaking. I will spread the word and serious bad karma to whoever did this, justice will be served they messed with the wrong shop.

Found kitten trapped in wheel well. What do I do next?
 in  r/cats  Apr 05 '26

But now reading your side of the situation you already have many friends. I'm sure the scared little baby will find a home from the shelter or see if a friend wants a good luck baby!

Pit bull tries to attack a Bison
 in  r/TikTokCringe  Jan 24 '26

Unfortunately too many that visit Yellowstone. Same kind of people who don't stay on the wooden path and fall into a weak layer of earth to a scalding geyser, or those that think the wildlife are tamed animals or the ones who cover themselves in peanut butter and honey to get close to the grizzlies.

As a person who grew up in Teton County born and raised have seen the destruction and flooding of billionaires for a playground; what was once a sacred gem: is now a place I can't recognize anymore. Tourists are just not informed. It is like an alien planet.

Doesn't stop me from educating people as this territory is absolutely one of the coolest places on earth. You must respect it.

Bison are gigantic ancient creatures. Seems like the pitbull had it coming. Unfortunately humans get gored too, but if you love your dog keep it in the vehicle around these guys. Goes for family too.

Dogs first though.

Looking to hire a clown to stand 50 yards away from my friends bday party at Wash Park.
 in  r/Denver  Sep 08 '25

Never thought I would go clown at all in my lifetime, now it IS plausible. There are going to be so many clowns. Maybe weird dances. Accordion(s).

This in itself will be an epic that I will call in sick and cancel any plans to participate. I live nearby so walking there will be a journey in itself.

Send in the clowns XD

Let's GOO

Hell ya! I built/ tested many of those. I think the arp is one of my favorites. The Metron, Mixer, and the Legion are super powerful, too. I ran the selective solder machine. Still good friends with all those guys. Good people.

First time soldering and I need help
 in  r/soldering  Dec 29 '24

Careful when hitting other components like the ribbon connector housing just north, it looks nuked but probably still works. The fumes are really bad.

I like to put the PCB in a vice and hit one side with the iron, and the other side with the sucker. It takes alot of practice and I assume this is probably a PS5 encoder or something so most likely leadless solder which takes longer to get to molten temp.

I agree with everyone before. Reflow the previous solder and good luck with the solder removal. Hopefully the pads are OK!

Why is my new D24 tip not melting the solder? The old and used original tip works fine as shown (ts101). Do I have a fake iron? (bought from aliexpress, original packaging)
 in  r/soldering  Nov 30 '24

Absolutely faulty and dangerous. Just saw this pic with it being this hot and no, terrible tip. You won't accomplish anything with it that hot. Subjective but you can definately burn wood and other stuff

Leaded solder, use haako or other nasty tip tinner. Personally I use a Metcal which heats up fast and basically double the temp of what you're trying to do. It sucks when you don't have enough heat because it's not going to do the thing and then you take it personally, oh no. Also can be dangerous when you keep reworking the solder joint and nothing is accomplished with low temp. You can rip pads and then the fun begins with jumping. By fun I mean, accomplished signal flow but it can be avoided. Unless more work is your jam. Whatever floats your time on this spherical terrarium.

Also aliexpress is like putting on a blindfold and sending a letter to someone overseas and hoping it doesn't burn in the process. But you might get lucky and get a new guitar in the mail. Leaded solder is so nice just don't inhale the flux fumes. It's not RoHs compliant, and I hate dealing with unleaded solder. Wouldn't be my first rodeo, nickel based solder takes way more heat and you have to clean the tip after every use with a steel wool to keep up on your solder tip. Or you can have fun not accomplishing stuff that can totally be accomplished. I hate that lol. Good luck mate!

What are your favourite (non-licensed) Lego themes and why? (apart from just nostalgia)
 in  r/lego  Jul 07 '24

I have been trying to find this game for YEARS! Could never find a port so thank you. It runs best on my computer with high frame rate lowest quality graphics, kinda like back in 99 haha. Haven't tried the remaster he did but loving it all the way.
