The UPS is terrible

EDIT: I mean USPS. typo

I very rarely order stuff on the Internet, but I ended up buying something that I couldn’t find in a store near me, and it had shipped from only one state over (i’m on the East Coast in the Appalachian region near the Virginias) and when it was in a post office only about an hour away from me, it then got transfered out to St. Louis Missouri .... Naturally, that’s going to add at least a couple days to its delivery date. Maybe this is a fluke, and I don’t order enough to know, but if this is how they always operate, they need to make some serious changes. Not only an annoyance, but a serious waste of federal money

I’m really annoyed when I connect a UPS to a generator and it rejects the power source due to the TDS. I hate that. I’d be better off connecting a DC power supply to the generator and use an inverter to get clean AC. Fuck UPS’s.
