Fixing things. Repair. Assembly. Construction. Diagnosis. It always surprises me how many people are incapable of understanding how something works or what needs done to repair it.

From engines to furnaces to plumbing, computers, electronics, whatever, I do it all myself. And it’s not even remotely connected to me career. Repairmen hate me!

Ha! A buddy of mine was a cable guy for years.

I’ll bet you $5 if it’s not your bathroom then the cause is the fiber installer poked a hole through your exterior wall and didn’t properly seal it.

It’s worth trying to see if you can get eyeballs on the room immediately above that location. If you have multiple floors windows are usually placed in parallel, one floor above the other. So it may be not a plumbing issue, but a window above could have a leak from the exterior that’s traveling downwards. Or the roof. I’ve seen leaks presenting evidence 20+ feet from the source before. They can take really unexpected routes through a building.

It’s a large capacitor. They are used in those big outdoor AC units to kick start the fan. Being outdoors and subject to large temperature changes and vibrations for years they inevitable fail.

What grocery items are always worth the extra

butter … my bed, my shoes, and my tires

Hello, fellow Costco shopper.

Philly used to be reliable for not having gums added. Sadly they started using them, too, a year or two ago. Now I buy a local brand with nothing more than milk, cream, and salt for twice the price.

Maybe you don’t use those settings?

Page 19, delayed start is only via app. And page 21 has the secrets to the “basic settings” that definitely requires the manual and patience to use.

Quieter, too

They do have that now, though. The control panel is as cryptic as ever, with certain settings only possible though divination (or a series of unlabeled button presses, I forget which).

But now some settings and wash modes are app-only. Still fully functional without an app, but frustrating I can’t use the thing to it’s fullest ability on it’s own.

*meme*

Took the words out of my mouth. I used to plan for a car wash after every trip through the countryside. Haven’t done that going on 15 years now. Amazing how few people notice.

Yeah, I ain’t got the energy for this.

“You will expire in 30 days.”

Retain the ambiguity across all translations.

Most frustrating thing is it doesn’t just delete the OP and hide the link but it nukes the entire thread and all replies.

There was a great thread yesterday about music with tons of recommendations that I saved to look at later only to find that it was deleted this morning and everything’s gone. It’s such a waste. Why even participate if it’s just going to be deleted like this?

Spiritual State by Nujabes

Nujabes was a Japanese producer that met a very unfortunate and far too early death in a car accident. His friends finished this, his final album, and released it nearly two years later. It’s both soothing and inspirational to me, and one of my favorites to unwind and escape to.

Edit: damn, this thread was awesome. Shame it was deleted.

$2500 is on the very low end. Expect and budget double that.

For the most part memes are self contained to their own communities. It takes a few days but you can achieve a relatively meme free experience if you block each community.

Copious amounts of gums and max overruns (adding air) together result in softer texture when frozen, which the average consumer likes, and higher yields, which the producer likes.

Essentially you’re buying 40% air with most brands, and the other 60% is not entirely cream & sugar & flavors. Try gelato or a local producer.

Not for a couple years now.
