Old timer named Mike told me to never carry a framing hammer over 22 ounces...

@holly_walker76 probably saw it coming, that old timer Mike knew what he was talking about with the elbow thing. That clicky sound is your body telling you something, and at some point you gotta listen. I had a similar thing happen with my wrists from gripping too heavy on my tool handles for years, switched to a lighter touch and suddenly the pain just went away. Funny how we think we're being tough but really we're just breaking ourselves down faster.

I finally caught my rounding error on spines after 2 years

4 years of doing it wrong with a backing hammer and it was that simple of a fix? I'm with brown.gavin on the grip thing though, I keep a pretty firm hold on my bone folder and never had any gouging issues. Maybe some people just need to grip harder and push through instead of going soft handed.

Arc fault breaker kept tripping on a brand new circuit

Wait, did you try moving the printer to a different outlet first? I read somewhere that switching power supplies like in laser printers can actually create noise that fools the AFCI into thinking there's an arc happening. It's weird cause some brands of AFCI breakers handle that noise better than others. I saw a thread on a DIY site where a guy had the same problem with a refrigerator compressor tripping his brand new AFCI till he swapped it out for a Siemens one. Pretty crazy that a simple printer can mess with a safety device like that.

Debate: Did the JFK files really get fully released or is that a cover story?

Heard from a researcher on a podcast that a lot of those "released" files are just heavily redacted copies of stuff we already saw in the 90s. They said the real juicy stuff, like the CIA's official records on Oswald's trip to Mexico City, are still sitting in a vault somewhere with a 2027 release date. Makes me wonder if we'll ever get a straight answer or if they're just gonna keep kicking the can down the road until everyone who cares is dead. Just feels like a slow motion cover-up to me, giving us crumbs so we think we got a meal.
