@StoleMyThundersBalls iirc the composition of gypsum board was different back then, and trying to nail it today would just crunch it up into crumbs and delaminate the paper, so it's all screws all the time

@skylar @StoleMyThundersBalls drywall nails still exist but nobody uses them because screwguns with collated magazines exist that do a perfect set every time without breaking the paper.

@DemonSixOne @StoleMyThundersBalls i am NOT buying one of those for the amount of drywall i end up doingand then i'd have to get rolls of both coarse and fine thread screws too cause i like using steel studswe'll just deal with tearing the paper sometimes and putting in another screwmaybe i should have got one of those drywall screw bits with the foreskin to set it to the right depth

@skylar @StoleMyThundersBalls If you only have to hang a room or two then these are the best $4 you'll spend, perfect set and dimple for mudding over: https://www.harborfreight.com/drywall-screw-setters-4-...If you're doing more than that or tall ceilings then spend the $120 and get the right tool.

@charliebrownau @DemonSixOne @StoleMyThundersBalls i need a new air compressor soon, my current one is an old oil-free compressor and getting slower and sloweri'll probably just get the motor and pump and a tank by themselves, cause i don't have a spot for a 60 gallon tank but i don't want another small and shitty compressor.a 20 gallon tank would fit in the basement under the stairs once i build a little frame to support it over the sump pump pit, and if i could put a pump and electric motor next to it instead of on top, it'd fit real nice

@skylar @charliebrownau @StoleMyThundersBalls By the time you get a pump and a compressor rated motor you're into the price range where you could just get another 27-30 gallon unit.

@charliebrownau @skylar @StoleMyThundersBalls 60dB is nice but that flow rate is pretty bad for anything more than very light nailing or maybe airbrushes.

@DemonSixOne @StoleMyThundersBalls @charliebrownau gotta find one with the right combination of size and cfmi don't want a shitty one that produces one sad wet fart per minute, nor a gigantic tank that weighs as much as elftummy's taste in womengiving it a dedicated 240V circuit is not a problem, it just obviously has to be single phase

@charliebrownau @skylar @StoleMyThundersBalls Its short for Harbor Freight, a tool importer here in the states. They source direct from factories in China, often their product is from the same factory as a very expensive name brand at a fraction of the price.

@sapphire@shortstacksran.ch @skylar@misskey.yandere.love @DemonSixOne@poa.st @StoleMyThundersBalls@poa.st @deprecated_ii@poa.st that was/is only true for CFLs and a narrow window in the early 2010s for LEDs.CFLs tech has gotten really good longevity in order to compete with LEDs though some states banned them as I hear, and you'll probably still save money with modern LEDs despite planned obsolescence.BTW in these new LEDs it's usually an IC or even a whole god damn CPU or RAM module that kills the bulb because they overheat and cook themselves, even in dumb bulbs with no internet connection or dimmers or color changing. I wish I was kidding.

@sapphire@shortstacksran.ch @skylar@misskey.yandere.love @DemonSixOne@poa.st @StoleMyThundersBalls@poa.st @deprecated_ii@poa.st adding on to this, since in these LED bulbs, it's almost never the actual LED that dies, if you modify your bulb with heatsinks or other means of heat dissipation you can substantially increase it's lifespan.
