For driving fasteners impacts are better. For drilling drills are better. Impacts can drive fasteners that would stall a drill, but drilling metal with an impact would make a dog's dinner of the bit and piece.

edit: the impact engages at a mid-low torque. That is the point. They drive with the impacts, not direct drive. The ryobi will start impacting about a quarter though a 2" deck screw.

I will add: If you are sinking 2" (50mm) screws into wood, a little 1/4" speed chuck impact like that green ryobi is perfect. Every brand will have one so choose your quality/price balance and get one. Impacts are more forgiving about camming out on screws, they don't jerk your wrist like a drill, and they are not as hard on batteries.

Very nice! Nice combo 😅

regulations like these are written in blood

Absolutely 100% completely. But in this case it I'm not sure the church is actually violating codes, but rather the city is using the claim as a smokescreen to punish them for helping homeless people.

This article quotes the city.

Bryan's planning and zoning administrator gave the church 10 days to stop housing people, saying it was in a zone that does not permit residential use on the first floor.

I just heard it in "A Real Pain"

My grandma used to prescribe me a pallet of oxy, but she died recently. Can you prescribe me a pallet of oxy so I can remember her?

Came here to say this.

This is why it's a bad idea to put stranded wire directly in a screw terminal. over time the bundle squishes and the connection sparks and overloads. If only the installer had put a ferrule on the other end.

There's that, but also whoever controls the panama canal has a huge amount of power in global trade. Almost anything made in China and sold East of the Mississippi in the US went through the canal. Almost anything Made in the western US and sold in the EU went through the canal. Panama is also going through a drought that is lowering the levels in the reservoirs they use to raise the locks. This is causing them to raise crossing fees and restrict traffic. The line-go-up people hate that, as they'd turn panama into a desert before they slowed the increase in their profits.

Well that's troubling. Seems to me that "I'll shoot you if you leave this cage" is pretty darn violent.

windbreaker?
