inPro tip: I used to swear by a 3/4 inch impact for lug nuts, but a 1 inch drive with a torque stick is the only way to go.
We had a 2008 Cascadia in the shop with seized inner lug nuts... the 1 inch gun with a 450 ft-lb torque stick got them off without a single broken stud. That extra mass in the anvil just seems to break things loose with less shock to the fastener. I still use the 3/4 for most stuff, but for any heavy truck wheels it's not even a choice anymore. The time saved on just one job pays for the socket adapter.

inTried baking my grandma's pie crust recipe with butter versus shortening

inPSA: I thought a password manager was overkill until my email got hit
That Romanian login attempt is a classic sign of a credential stuffing attack. They use passwords leaked from other sites, not guesswork. A manager stops that because every password is unique.
