Sooo experts of RS, my buddy gave me this smoked fish and I didn't think to refrigerate it. It's vacuum sealed still but I left it under my desk (in a basement) for the last two months.
Should I eat it? Do I feed my family this? Are we all gonna get botulism and turn into vegetables?

I think he's asking us to guide him to his own suicide after realizing how amazing HK is, how Canada sucks, and how he can never get ahead. Self-realization is a bitch.
RIP.

So Dukes just keeps adding fuel to my fire.

forget the article, just look at this guy's awesome outfit riding the bus. What happened there broski? your beetle broke down and you had to hitch a ride on pleabian transport?
One of these connectors on my water heater look like it rusted and broke.
Does anyone know what these kind of connectors are called or have a link where I can buy them? It looks simple enough to DIY fix, but I don't know what to look for. I tried googling but all these different types of pipe/tube connectors pop up. It looks like it's a threaded nut on one side, and you crimp the other end onto the tube.

can you loosen it off ?
if so then take it to andrew sheret and ask if they have something that'll match

I'm not a plumber, but the red pipe is called, "Pex".
You will need a small amount of Pex tubing to join the existing tube (unless you replace the entire pex tube, this will be cleaner job as you don't have to join two pex tubes) to the water heater via a connector and you would probably want to replace that rusted out connector valve with a new one. That copper ring on the pex is what you need to "crimp"
Unthread the copper fitting and take it to home depot and just ask them for another one.
The crimper tool to crimp the pex is around $50 + materials, you're probably looking at $100 total?
If you don't want to crimp, you can use fittings called Shark Bite, but many real plumbers don't recommend that, but shark bite guarantees it. With shark bite fittings you don't need to crimp.
This is what you want, assuming its 1/2 pex X 1/2 FIP and not MIP
Unthread brass piece
Cut off just past the pex crimp on red
Thread on new sharkbite with t tape and preferably dope
Push on red onto sharkbite assuming you have enough pipe to push on

For anyone who want's to get into sim racing Asetek is having a big sale.
I got this bundle plus I added the clutch to get free shipping for $834.10 from the US site. Will see if I have to pay any tariffs. https://www.asetek.com/simsports/us/...ima-gt-bundle/ Asetek seems to be some pretty high end stuff.

Oh yeah, you have to cut the pex first, which will require a tool...
There probably won't be enough original pipe left after you cut it, so you most likely will have to join the original pipe with new pipe via another shark bit connector, then use the shark bit connector that donk posted to connect it.
