Going by the writing on the wall, it’s for a 3-way dimmer switch. It also is likely the picture was taken during its install and not from someone trying to find a stud

I’ll have to try this with a coworker’s. He was also auto tech, so it’ll have to be hidden well…

For a solid cut of beef, that’s my goto. But for ground beef, I would go closer to medium, both for food safety and so it doesn’t fall apart in my hands too easily

Way back, years ago, and if memory serves…
There was short story about Harry Potter in a Disney Adventures magazine one month and I think that was supposed to be all there was as far as the story. The popularity of it may have had JKR rushing to build a more in depth story and throwing anything in it that seemed whimsical and fun to a kid, regardless if it made sense.

Try with a different/new cable.
The contacts on a USB-C cable can become fatigued and lose the tension needed to maintain a solid connection, which can cause this issue.

It might be by locale. I live a couple blocks from a high school and I’m seeing the opposite. Kids are wearing baggier and baggier jeans, some even near JNCO style.

Meme:
why did boys stop wearing jeans like this??
My answer:
I just saw a high schooler wearing black ones when grabbing something to eat at the store.
(I.E. They are still wearing them, and in different colors)

The picture is of a vaccination though, not euthanasia. It’s a random stock image chosen by someone who doesn’t have any practical medical knowledge.
This would be a more apt image…
But, yeah barbituates are only IV or IC (intracardial; mainly for small animals like hamsters)

Here’s a quick video to add, giving the reasons for the 3 drugs. youtu.be/aP7rP6_OxKI
While it may not seem too bad on the surface, there is relatively high failure rate of 7.12%, which is pretty alarming as most of them were doses (of any of the drugs) that weren’t high enough. (Some may even have been intentional)
- Comment on This woman must have a really bad dog 3 weeks ago:
That’s actually the correct technique for a subcutaneous injection. You have to tent the skin with 2-3 fingers so that the needle can get under the skin layer without going too deep.
- Comment on This woman must have a really bad dog 3 weeks ago:
It is. All anesthetics used for euthanasia (mostly barbituates), that I know and recall, are either given via IV (in a vein) or IC (directly into heart). Nothing other than certain vaccines or just fluid are given subcutaneously.

It was the last part of the show where they pull two people from the team to try to get 200 points for the extra prize.
Both cannoli and tiramasu got zero, with ice cream as the top answer.

I mean, if you covered his face, he’d look like a 3-4y/o who likely needs their parents to dress them.
On a side note, a lot of older men either lose track of where their waist is or pull their pants up to try to hide their overhanging belly. It’s mostly people from a generation that always wore pants with the waistline at or above the navel

- Comment on WARNING! 1 month ago:
Using baking soda a bit of water and some time will also get rid of the corrosion along with neutralizing the acid which tends to come back otherwise.
Just disconnect and remove the battery. Wipe the battery with a paper towel covered in a paste made from baking soda. After, rinse it off with some clean water. Clean and rinse the car’s battery tray and Clamp like you did with the battery. Get a large-ish bowl or dish with some water and. Soak the harness terminals for a few minutes while adding baking soda until it stops fizzing. Get an old toothbrush and scrub the terminal with a baking soda paste. Rinse, re-install everything and you’re done.
It got my harness terminals from a crystallized mess from leaking to looking brand new (seriously) and none an issue for the past 4 years.
