“Fast charging” has 4 conductors.

You are best friends with all the dominos drivers?

That’s what 3 days worth of unhealthy hot food, delivered to your door should cost. It’s an extravagant service; it should be an extravagant price.

The real problem is that all those extra fees and expenses just go straight into owner pockets/shareholder value instead of providing the employees with medical care, proper insurance and a real retirement.

If you want to save money, teach your daughter how to safely cook a frozen pizza. If she’s old enough to be home alone and answer the door when strangers show up, why can’t she fed herself?

We have more bacteria living on and in our bodies than we have “human” cells.

Kinda makes you wonder where the “human” starts and stops. Maybe we are bacteria driving human mechs.

These days, as in…Now?

Today?

This is the era of boomer shooters…

We haven’t had a new stand alone Uncharted game for…7 years.

40 days backpacking 800 Miles on the Arizona Trail.

Walking from Utah to Mexico, in November with gradually decreasing daylight. Lots of night hiking.

True story, rabbits are prey animals, so it takes work to build confidence in them as pets.

But the thumbnail is peak Youtube. Just needs the bunny to grin like Mr Beast.

I have a headlamp that’s basically just a metal case wrapped around an 18650 cell and it is quite insane.

You really don’t want to use stainless tools as they will plastically deform

They are made specifically for stainless fasteners.

You’ll frequently find them in the toolbags of aerospace professionals and industrial electricians and they are really the only folks that deal with a lot of stainless fasteners.

Bicycle and motorbike folks have lots of stainless hardware, too. And lots of time you’ll see folks blame JIS/Phillips on ruining their fasteners, but sometimes it’s just because they’re using toolsteel tools on stainless fasteners.

If it is posidriv, you must use posidriv and you can’t use posidriv with a conventional Robertson/Phillips/JIS.

Uh…you can use pozidriv or Robertson tools on pozidriv fasteners without issue… I think it’s the only standard that has cross-compatibility with another standard like that.

Higher-end bike parts might be the one application a home DIYer might encounter stainless steel hardware.

Stainless hardware is generally pretty uncommon, but most common in things like commercial kitchen equipment, aerospace and industrial machine panels.

In those industries, the pros know and carry specific stainless steel tools, because using normal tool-steel tools will destroy the hardware.

tl;dr Phillips, pozi or JIS, you might just end up shredding the softer stainless bicycle hardware with your harder tools.

Torx’s highest-in-class leverage without camming out gives it superiority in some applications (eg impact-rated deck screws), but if you had to choose one fastener head for everything, posidriv is it.

Torx is not self-centering, and therefore inappropriate for many tasks including anything not hand-assembled. It is also susceptible to stripping out after rusting.

The patent is expired and it now has ANSI and ISO standards.

So, restaurants might do this to avoid the cost of printing new menus with new prices.

Much easier and cheaper to just put signs at the table or print inserts, especially if you think prices will go up again soon.

But this honestly just looks like they’re trying to screw you.

Everybody needs one big ass flathead just to demo with. The superior wonderbar.

Stainless fasteners are niche and require stainless tools, full-stop.

Most fasteners are not stainless.

Phillips was designed to be simple to cut and self-centering, so it could be used on assembly lines. It exploded in popularity just as mass manufactured goods were becoming popular purchases.

Later styles like square, Hex (cut) fasteners, or 12-point (both types) or Torx can create higher torque without slipping but are not centering the way Phillips is.

Pozidriv > *

Not only is it self-centering like phillips and JIS (eg the reason they are used in so many line-assembled manufactured goods) but it’s has superior contact like a Robertson (square drive) or hex or torx.

I just know this n***a eatin beans.
