OAKLAND STATE OF MIND on Instagram: "[News & Educational awareness] BEWARE: California.— Gas pump technician discovers card skimmer while making a repair at a gas station in San Gabriel Valley Area. The pump was not working correctly so the gas station owner called a technician to repair the problem and thats when the device was discovered. TIPS TO STAY SAFE: How do you tell if there is a card skimmer? The stripe reader is at a funny angle. The buttons on the keypad are off-center or hard to push. The easiest way to detect a credit card skimmer is to yank, pull, and tug. Before you put your card into a point-of-sale terminal, wiggle a few parts of the machine to see if anything is loose. #california #bayarea #oakland #sanfrancisco #usa #reels #explore #explorepage #viral"

Lichens can survive space conditions for extended periods
A new study shows that a large percentage of hardy lichens exposed to space conditions for one and a half years remain viable after returning to Earth. The lichen Xanthoria elegans was part of the lichen and fungi experiment (LIFE) on the International Space Station (ISS).

RESEARCH NOTE: Arm’s “Blackhawk” CPU Is An Audacious Plan To Have The Best Smartphone CPU Core This Year
For years now, there has been what I consider a healthy, competitive tension between Arm CPU instruction set licensees and Arm’s pe-packaged and pre-validated IP licensees. (I am sure some licensees would challenge me on “healthy” given Apple’s performance.) I think it made sense that Arm would...

It was the same with the XiaomiWhereToGetRefunded camera I bought, which insisted on a firmware update, then bricked itself saying "Cannot be used outside China" after updating lol. Only the very long USB lead supplied would fit. Convert to microUSB and back to USBC? I keep loads of USB converters handy.
I've had long cheap USB cables burn with 2A - could be why they make it difficult to use cables other than the ones supplied?

Blade looks too thin, it'll break and cut up your hand. The dusters look thin too. "Tactical" my arse. Go full Crocodile Dundee.
It's a useless toy! Dusters should have a large surface area so your fingers and skin don't break - wide to distribute pressure. That blade is crap. Maybe I shouldn't go on.it is strong tested it all ready and sharp was only 20 quid posted.
the part where the blade meets the handle would snap fist
i broke a plank of wood in half with it 
loads more thicker ones on there.

Was it Balsa?i broke a plank of wood in half with it
I can make someone break wind using a plank of wood, but I don't want to.
You've got woodworm, you should move ASAP, especially if you're afraid of heights.

You'd be amazed how many people use Botox these days, muscles might stay where they are. Is there any particular reason for you to remove parts of other people's faces? Do you get attacked a lot? Knives are all over the place these days, sadly. Seems every kid has one. Luckily they're all crap knives like yours.nah was the same with the other one as also thin but you whack some one in the face with either parts are going to come off there face

That handle will break off while you're trying to hack off a leg - the embedded blade shaft will rip right through the handle and go through your hands. You'll never w£nk again... not with your hands anyway.View attachment 56036
why stab them in the head when i can chop them off
The blade is ok, the handle is weak. You must chop a long dead tree to be sure. HAI! (Wear kevlar gloves)
handle cab be changed if i wanted to but all held in the same with one wooden peg you hammer out.
cuts like that its a giant razor blade
they are all made in the same way from the same metal just old ones can be worth alot depending of maker.
cant find any high end knuckle duster knives but will do for pat boxes
and no one at the
Kenjutsu
club would play with me with it
