    That high gloss slippery tire shine belong on tires of a mud truck or mall crawler only

    The stupid things worked fine now every time I push the switch the online fuse pops I started taking wires back apart but I'll fool with it more later. May need a different or better harness idk. Will probably take back apart and check lights first

    I just have the dogs piss on the tires, works at even below zero. Wish their legs were a little longer and they were a bit taller however.

    It's a work in progress. See my build thread.
    System working as designed. But now everyone knows I paid $6 for a damned bolt. FWIW, I found it at a Toyota dealer for $0.82 - but they wanted 7.95 to ship it.

    :notsure:

    Sounds like you may have scraped the insulation off a wire somewhere. (Assuming you have the right sized fuse)

    Probably wire gauge size problems , may have to go a size bigger for length of run and amperage

    This is why I have a 8 gauge wire feeding my MSD 7AL box so there's no loss of voltage and amps feeding it . The box comes with a 12 gauge 12v (+) wire but length of run and amperage I decided to go up in wire size . I've now got wire capable of up to 250amps capable of keeping that box supplied with 14 plus volts

    Bare Metal Restore with remote management for the win. Actually doing it from home for the win!

    I always put my headset on mute for conference calls, usually anyhow only got caught snoring a few times. Hate it when I leave the mute on and start talking to myself though.

    I have all my essential and critical servers in AWS, and they auto-heal. Something goes stoopid, I have a new server configured and deployed in under a minute!

    That's why I rarely do dishes. Too many accidents in the home and my hands don't fit inside the glasses or tall travel mugs. Don't feel bad man. At least you didn't take off a hunk of thumb with a banjo slicer.

    Thanks Chuck.

    Listening to you and Cypher here ... Forget I said anything about this little scratch on my pinky :oops:

    Glad you have another job already. I hate reading about places closing down like this. :(

    I do the dishes pretty regular here, we don't have a dishwashing machine. Wife opted for extra cabinet space ... she don't care for them based on the one her Mom had 40 yrs ago ... who am I to argue? ;)

    There's a reason for the Moose nickname, graceful and small I am not. :laughing:

    I've had more than one woman tell me there is nothing sexier than a man standing at a sink doing dishes. Especially after cooking for her. I have a dishwasher but often do them by hand, when the occasion warrants anyways.

    Lotta people find it odd we don't have one, but with just the two of us here now, it's not too big off a deal. I did have the cabinet plumbed for one. We got into this place when it was being built spec, so we got to tailor some stuff.

    EDIT: Even when we lived in base housing in England she never used the one in the kitchen there; stored the pans in it IIRC. :bananadead:

    We are 94% Virtual on Windows Servers management wanted 96% but can't happen. At least without performance hits on major players like databases, etc.

    Most everything is on prem yet slowly going to off prem and MS Azure for new projects. Have more than a thousand programmers running around but slowing chipping away at moving as much as we can to Software as a Service. The old time programmers are not happy...
