The wiring issues we are having on the 2015ish and even worse on the 19 and newer trucks is ridiculous. I still think it's an issue in manufacturing the harnesses. It's never the same location, but it's always pierced insulation resulting in corrosion. And oftentimes in locations you know haven't seen the light of day since the harness was built.
We have the same issues here on later harness's. Komatsu tells us the smaller wire has a higher tensile strength and needs to be smaller due to the amount of wire needed and of course cost. I say bull chit on the strength, so here is my simplified that makes sense to my simple non college edumacated mind. Because we are seeing areas in wires not chaffed or poked with a tool but have corrosion glorified areas under the insulation or totally open burnt areas in one wire on a multi wire run. I really think this so called special high tensile multi strand wire will have a single strand break or burn open due to possible stress under the insulation. Hence this little strand burns a hole in the insulation that cannot be seen with the eye. Of course when exposed to the elements and oxygen corrosion sets in and it fester's.
Sorry for the lengthy explanation Ed but this has been a pet peeve of mine for many years. These failures as your well aware of can be very challenging to find. I've come to running a 24vdc bulb on circuits as times with a battery source just to see if the wire can carry the load.
Sorry mang, I've got a little out of hand on this. Better just eat my sandwich.

While I agree with some of this Gary I feel like conceding that "the drugs are already here" feels a bit like endorsing the distribution of them. Also, decriminalization may take down some barriers to rehabilitation, I feel it also takes down barriers to experimentation, which for some can lead to addiction. I have no statistics to back this up, just first hand observation. Removing punishment for mis-behavior is a big problem in the home as well as in society.

I don’t disagree but the limit of 2.5g is fairly low. With the removal of penalties for personal use, the penalties for distribution are strengthened. I don’t know that “do no harm” is achievable, while this allows for “do less harm”. Is it the ultimate solution? No, but it’s the best stepping stone we have at this time.

This is not the same as the legalization of pot that for sure has more people experimenting, myself included but I have mo interest in any opioids or stimulants.

I have to say I find gummies much more enjoyable than oil and CBD has been a great relief at times in the last number of months.

The reefer madness crowd would place that box in the same category as the opioids, which are actually chemically addictive. This is my speed. Very low dose. Very cheap now. The effects of ~3-4 beers at about 90 cents a pop. Very consistent. Nice on a Saturday night.20220525_140306.jpg

Just to wrap my head around this, you believe 2.5grams of fentanyl is a low dose?

I can't speak to exterior wiring, but before I left hvac assembly the wiring had become so small that we had to wear ESD shoes and attach(ground) ourselves to the assembly line so a stray static charge couldn't short wiring out.
The clamp is not supposed to go on your nipple tho.

Can confirm. My auto-electrician always uses a bulb, believes meters and electronics can mislead too easily. Bulb either lights or it doesn't.

We tend to get too attached to our animals here. They are pets, not food.

One of my best friends as a young man had a big goat named Rudy. Rudy liked cheap beer - Olympia, Hamm's, or Olde English 800. He didn't like the fancy stuff.

After a couple bowls of cheap beer, Rudy turned into a mean drunk. He bit, scratched, and would ram you from the side or the back. But, he was a sweetheart to the
other animals on the farm. The pigs and chickens especially loved old Rudy. He was very protective of them.

Punishments are required!
But routes to Rehab needs to be an option for sure. It won't help everyone but some will get it done while it would be a minor percentage.
I got three small ones today. Went into an area they’d just logged. Top piles and culls is what I cut on. Still some moisture in them. Heavy loads for small ones.54649394-C3EA-46DD-B9ED-E8979AC00CD6.jpeg7EDC7BB2-BCF3-4B81-8A01-C3107CE48A12.jpeg821FEA55-269C-4720-9027-566AAD9DC1F7.jpeg

Man I wish I could of got it on video but my gay coworker just went on an epic rant of how tired of and dumb pride month is.

Now I'm just quoting him here " Kyle if your biggest accomplishment in life is taking dick in the ass you're a *f-wording loser!"

I have no idea who Kyle is.
