This is such a nothing statement from Microsoft. I mean good on them for asking LG to remove the adware for Mcafee specifically but they don’t say anything about keeping this stuff from other auto-installed apps or making the apps ask for user permission (let alone not enabling this bullshit by default).

I dunno man, my 7 month old has at least an inkling of object permanence, so gotta bump that ager down to like 3-4 months old imo!

He was arrested according to local news.

I hadn’t heard about that one. It’s depressing to realize how much shootings have become non-news

There was another 9 victim (1 dead) mass shooting in Denver around the same time I think at a nightclub that I only heard about a few days later.

My republicans parents would just argue we shouldn’t let them litigate it after the verdict… in their mind can’t make appeals means less cost so everything is back to being perfectly ok

Looking on the motor looks like the right keyword was rs-775 . $20 for a new motor, I might still try to get the brushes out when the time comes just to see but that’s half the price of a new one.

It is a ryobi, at ten years and $40 when I bought it I probably can’t complain much on cost. When it breaks I’ll have to see if I can find a replacement motor or force it apart like you mentioned to see if I can get it to go again.

Nope they don’t seem to budge before starting to tear.

 

The drill has lasted me almost 10 years at this point of light usage. I opened it for the first time to re-grease with some lithium grease, and noticed despite it saying brushed motor it sure looks like I'd need a Dremel to open this. Figured I'd ask if anyone has seen similar and if so, is there a trick to opening this when the the brushes wear out?

The ministry of truth worked hard on that headline huh?

It won’t, if anything I’ve been seeing even more of these around since gas prices shot up…
