The dude they send out to remove my fancy new rainbow sparkle camera faceplate, how much you suppose they pay him per hour? I bet I can make them send him out here at least a dozen times on a single $15 roll of PLA, and I (probably) wouldn't catch charges if they caught me with it.

    I still have the keys to my first car. Car is long gone, passed down to each of my siblings and eventually donated to some local charity I think, gotta be at least 20 years ago. Somehow I ended up with a set of the original keys and they've managed to follow me around ever since. At this point I fully intend to keep them till I die, because why the hell not?

    NFG was a pretty decent chunk of my life's soundtrack for awhile back in the day. I haven't listened to them quite as much in recent years, but I've always given every new album a spin or three, I still sing along every time a song shuffles in, and I've just sort of always liked them in that "comfort food" kind of way. This kinda hit me a little harder than I would have expected, I guess. Fuck cancer. RIP Chad. It's better where you're going anyway.

    How can I fix this S&W M&P 1100078 knife that gets stuck open? (sh.itjust.works)
     

    I got this knife as a gift several years ago, I don't really use it a whole lot but I do like to take it camping and such. However, on a camping trip a year or so ago, it got stuck open.

    There is some little wire loop looking thing that seems to pop out of wherever it's supposed to be and blocks the thumb unlocker from working. I can take a tiny screwdriver or Allen wrench and poke around in there and pop the thing back into place, and then it works and closes just fine. And it'll be fine for a few times, opens and closes correctly, but after a handful of times that piece inevitably pops back out again and locks it open.

    I've tried to use a tiny torx bit to remove the sides to see if I can figure out what's going on, but the screws just spin. The big screw at the hinge unscrews as expected but all the little ones all act like they're stripped.

    What else can I do? Is there some trick to removing the sides? Any help would be appreciated.

    Here's what it looks like opened correctly with the little piece still wherever it's supposed to be:

    And when the piece pops out and gets stuck:

    Somewhat useful red circle if you couldn't see the problem:
