    Guys. Look how awesome this wire stripping tool is.. I had no idea something like this existed.. Had to strip a wire today and it was terrible

    I have one, and it is awesome.

    How much does this one cost?

    looks like $21 USD for this particular one. I think this is a name brand one too

    Oh ok. Whats the brand?

    The one in the video was Irwin originally but i looked at the wrong one for pricing

    Oops sorry @noob404 , $21 USD is a Klien tool version which is most definitly a name brand version!

    What's the good brand called?

    I think both Irwin and Klien tools are "good" brands. Im not an electronics afficianto though, but i do see those all over at higher prices.

    Would love to have one. Infact been looking for a stripping and joiner tool for ethernet

    Is it expensive?

    I guess it depends on your country. But nevertheless if it's something you end up using a lot, then it's worth it

    how much would something like this cost over there? Even the knock off? Knock offs often work just as well, theres only so many ways to make a tool like this

    Anyone hear back about sweaters yet? BRRRR its cold outside (like legit snow in texas who would've thought XD)

    The irony of another part of the country reeling under wildfires

    Or maybe its not the snow in Texas? Is it the ashes from LA? :)

    On the other hand, when the fire is so wild, why is it not fought back with fire? Since my childhood I knew the theory that if you can't fight the fire, prepare the area upfront and start the controlled fire there. When they both meet, they will not have anything to burn on and just stop.

    I have never seen this being used in practice though...

    Fighting fire with fire? I am not sure if that's something that's recommended in an area/region with potentially high population and property. Yes, something like that could be tried in an abandoned area to check if it really works. But, ig, when reducing property or life loss is something that's a priority, I don't think the firefighters would actually try something like that out.

  • In any case, like any other natural calamity, humans have a very big hand in setting the stage for them. This wildfire is no different. Pretty sure, we already know the reasons, but in a few weeks, I am pretty sure theres gonna be a govt appointed commission that's gonna find irregularities in the town planning and what not! But, like every other time, those will be buried soon enough when the next Marvel movie launches or when the media gets other juicy topics to exploit.

    Indeed, the world is full of such ironic scenarios!

    I remember reading of the butterfly effect a few years ago. The recent times, I have seen too much stuff happening IRL that proves the effect is real.

    That reminds me of a real old movie, Butterfly effect! I should watch that again. I dont remember too much of it but i remember it was good. Something about a guy that can alter the past or something i think?..

    Well, letting the wildfire expand for third day in a row doesn't help the wild life at all. If fire vs fire was started after first day, it would have been stopped already and less area would have been lost to it. I guess, making such decision is hard for a human - you admit that fire won against you...

    I heard that is why they do control fires too. Eventually you get so much brush built up everywhere that it can lead to a huge fire. Theres a research out there about how putting out fires is actually making the fires much more danagerous and destorying parts of the forest because they dont go through this natural "purging" cycle

    it definilty gets tough when there is high population around. Control fires is things they do in grassy plains places in teh USA believe. Likely other parts of the world that are near civilization. California is just so packed though... its on another level

    It will be interesting to see the cause indeed. Sometimes there are big fire outbreaks because of someone dropping a match or doing a weird reveal party of some sort. Sometimes fireworks. I would not be too surprised if they find there was someone being careless and they set it off.

    I think one problem with that too is that i guess it was super windy the first day too which would make any started fires difficult to contain as well

    Oh ok..you are right there. BTW has this principle been used before in any of the devastating wildfires before? I am curious now.

    Heres some talk about the concept in action! They dont see to note any specific fires fought with fire though controlled burning is essentially that, fight the fire before the fire starts

    I just read the premise and it sounds very interesting indeed. Really dont remember much from so long ago.. I dont want to spoil it but it does involve altering the past! I want to watch as well now... Perhaps when the telly arrives!
