    Also, Masks Don't Work: A review of science relevant to COVID-19 social policy www.researchgate.net/publicat...
    addendum: One of the beautiful side effects of considered discussion is that when I post a un-intended strawman it underlines the mis-understanding of a situation. Now it's plainly evident that a mask would help keep one's sneezes contained but how does that really help? Most people wearing a mask have no fucking clue how to use it. Smearing monkey shit all over their faces, scratching, adjusting, pulling aside to talk, going around spittle barriers because they are protected by the virtue signal of sandwich artist gloves and a mask yanked down to allow them to be clearly herd. You need training and diligence to use a mask effectively, otherwise it's little more than kabuki.

    The article linked in the description is self-published by former physics professor Denis Rancourt, under the auspices of the Ontario Civil Liberties Association. He was dismissed by his previous employer, the University of Ottawa, for numerous subversions of the university's academic integrity. These included unilaterally changing the content of one of his courses, advertising another course he taught as being free despite it being a fee-taking course per university regulations, and giving every student an A+ in another of his courses regardless of their actual competence.
    Physicists have a time-honoured tradition of speaking authoritatively on topics they have zero expertise in. Having a PhD does not make one immune to the Dunning-Kruger effect, and I'm afraid this is exactly what is happening here.

      At least we no longer use common slot, which are the worst by far. Also, I think robertson manufacturing is easier than torx, as robertson was made by someone who said "Philips bad and stabby" and copied the process they used to make screws.

    AvE, masks aren't to stop the wearer from potentially inhaling 'viral particles', although they can certainly do that. The efficacy of masks in containing the spread of a virus has nothing to do with the size of the viral particle itself, and everything to do with the size of a droplet containing respiratory mucosal secretions (and viral particles). The viral particle itself has no chance of withstanding the extremes of the outside elements with its tiny protein coat. It easily succumbs to the effects of osmosis, at the very least, to dry out and become ineffective in attaching/penetrating cell membranes and replicating. Thus, anyone who dismisses masks based on their efficacy in mitigating the movement of a single viral particle can be safely dismissed. The efficacy of a mask lies in its ability to decrease (not eliminate) the transfer of previously mentioned respiratory droplets from an infected patient to surfaces that non-infected people may come in contact with.
    With that said, the mortality rate of COVID-19 is very very low in non-vulnerable people (below 65 years of age, not immunocompromised, no pneumonia, etc.). The way we've handled this, IMO, is atrocious. We could've done a much better job, and saved more lives, by not causing mass panic and simply allowing non-vulnerable people to continue regular lives while affording extra protection and isolation for vulnerable people. In the process, we could've rationed healthcare resources and distributed them in a more efficient manner. In order for that to work, we would need good social distancing in public, the normalization of masks in public, more testing, the closure of the international border, and educating people about the danger of coming in contact, under any circumstances, with a vulnerable person. Had all of that been done, we could've eliminated the need for mass lockdown, in lieu of regional lockdowns when necessary. Look at China, Taiwan, Japan, Korea, Singapore, etc. None of them had a nationwide lockdown. Instead, we've used Italy, Spain, and other such countries as role models.
    Then again, here in Canada, Justin Trudeau appointed someone with very little knowledge of public health to be the health minister (Sajdu) through a cabinet reshuffle, and our leading physician on COVID-19, Dr. Tam, was against border closures for months, she deliberately lied to the public (instead of actually controlling the supply chain) about the efficacy of masks, going as far as saying that they're not useful, in an effort to ration them for the healthcare industry. IMO, what Dr. Tam did amounts to criminal negligence, and she should be in jail right now. I can't imagine the number of cases in Canada caused by her. Imagine all the people who were infected and used public transit without wearing masks, spreading the virus on every surface they touched...

      No surprise there, considering Dremel is a subsidiary of Bosch. Here in Germany, the GO was never released as a blue ("Professional") version. Instead Bosch renamed it to "PushDrive" and released it with a green casing, which is basically the home gamer segment of Bosch power tools. Ultimately, I think this is all just marketing and brand recognition to appeal to the biggest audience because there are people who will strictly ignore products of a certain brand. Also, because certain brands are more wide-spread than others in certain countries.

    I bought that screwdriver under the Dremel brand name to drive in inch and a half hex screws on cable clips at work. I used that screwdriver 5 days a week every week and it is by far my most favorite tool as it pretty much negated the need to be running back and forth grabbing the impact driver, and when youre working out of a tool belt you want the smallest lightest tools possible to get the job done quick. and save your back. i loved how i could hold the screw with my index finger, hold the driver with the rest of my hand and still have my other hand to hold the cable tight against whatever surface was driving into and it never let me down.
    it did break after about 2 years of use, one of the bearings popped out of place and jammed the clutch but i took it apart as you did, put the bearing back in place, regreased it, and put it back to full time use like it was brand new.
