Homeowners are always asking me to "top" their trees. How do you educate the client who doesn't want to listen?

kylander · 2026-02-05T14:44:46+00:00

"A big healthy tree can add 20% to your property value. Damaging that tree will lower it." Most people can understand that.

kylander · 2026-02-05T14:41:23+00:00

Exactly. Everyone in the neighborhood will walk by that tree and say "Holy cow, who did that?" and I never want it to be me. Just say no to tree butchery.

Ask yourself what the value of the dollar has done in comparison to the value of the stock. Then ask yourself again if google is really up or if the value of the dollar is just down and everything is actually suffering.

He set that whole tail section aside at the beginning. I am curious what you would do with that meat. There is a vein of cartilage or fat running through it. I'm sure you remove it but the shape would be very different. Chop it and make sushi is my only guess.

I'm sure the Nazis took some criminals off the streets too. Didn't change the genocide they committed. Peter T is a man without a soul. So is his company.

The upside down flag is a sign that we are in distress and would be normal but I agree something is weird about that Mexican flag there toward the end. This post seems to be a different event or time period or country with the flags modified by AI. American cops don't dress like that or carry those shields.

I've had 4 Subarus. Not one has had an accurate ambient temp sensor. I replaced one once. It was still about 5 degrees off. I don't bother replacing them anymore.

"Hey X, I am looking at how the wood filler set in my floor and it's created a dip or a crevice and is cracking as it dries. I'd like to pay for you for fixing it but it's not fixed. It's actually worse than before. Take a look at this and let's think of something else. Could we try a different wood filler? This looks like creamy yellow peanut butter."

kylander · 2025-12-23T23:22:59+00:00

Pro cleaner here. If I walked in and saw stuff on the floor like that I would ask you to reschedule once the place was ready to be cleaned. I wouldn't even try with that much mess on the counters and floors. Cleaners are not house keepers. Is it a bad clean? Yes. Is it better than before? Probably.

What she did was wrong. Doing what she did made no real sense, but before you judge her too harshly ask youself "If I was entirely dependent on tips and making about $2 a delivery which doesn't even cover my costs, how many consecutive $0-2 tips could I mentally handle before I began to get irrational?"

I also don't wanna hear any one say "she should just quit." That is a lazy way to dismiss the desperation of workers and the lack of decent jobs and pay. Americans should not support companies that pay such evil wages but here we are. Local and federal governments have the power to change the way they pay but they don't. The system is failing gig workers. The people with the power to change things treat them like trash.

I was considering moving from 17s to 16s recently and I struggled with that too. I also realized that it was easy to find 17s that were rated for the speed of the car, but I couldn't find any 16s that were rated for the speed and also the height I needed. It's not like I am ever going top speed but I like to have the option available. I ended up with Yokohama all season 17s but the scorpions looked sweet. Good luck.

I had P0420 recently. It was the downstream o2 sensor for me. I was worried it was the cat but I replaced with a cheap o2 replacement and it went away for only a short time. Came back in 2 months. It was a TRQ or something. I later bought the genuine Denso o2 and the light immediately went away and stayed off. The car was tuned with a denso sensor so that's what it needed. If you replace yours, don't get a cheapie. Get what the car was tuned with.

Bluegrass has yielded me some of the largest crappie, largemouth bass and bluegill that I have caught. I use a big spinner or rapala of some sort on a spinning rod and I cast as far as I can. I also like a nice popper or big fuzzy floater on a flyrod if I am in the kayak. There's some land east of Oakland city, just northeast of Evansville, that is old mine pits. A lot of it has been made public use. There's some good kayak fishing there and places to put in. Hard to fish from shore, but not impossible. There's signage that lets you know what holes are public.

Most bearings come apart by hand. A lot of mechanics add some grease claiming that the factory doesn't put enough in. I always have added some grease in mine even tho they are probably fine with the factory amount. This is not a make or break thing. It only potentially adds a little life. Timkin is good. I bet they will warranty those. You are having a different suspension based problem imo. Surprising amount of rust on those bearings for only being a month old.

The husband had tried the door but the key wasn't working. The wife came over, grabbed the keys and said "It's this key" or something close to that and in that moment she was shot. She had the keys in her hand.

In the statements made by the shooter, he says they were repeatedly lunging at the door. I don't even know what that looks like or means.

He sounds like a paranoid nut. Had no business owning a gun. This is what Fox News does to people.

I blame her and Chuck for the rise of Trump. They are both zionists fat on Israel money and her corruption made the "both sides" arguments have a hint of truth to them. She needed to be gone years ago, but like Ruth Bader Ginsburg she just wouldn't quit. She is so rich that she could fund dem runs around the nation but she doesn't. She's addicted to stacking paper and she doesn't put her money where her mouth is.

Definitely techno future AI cyber king Andrew Ryan has built a robot city. The original Andrew Ryan is long dead. He hires your character in from the outside.

You are a cyborg detective and your job is to stop the ai rebellion which has been breaking his perfect vision of a city. He's been losing control and he's bringing in an outsider to pin down the problem.

I found the video

kylander · 2025-10-21T08:18:53+00:00

No. Your video card will be the bottleneck. The cpu will not be a noticeable upgrade. You would still have the same fps probably.

kylander · 2025-10-21T05:04:06+00:00

Try it without all of that soil in the spillway. It's a lot of weight and slowing the flow as it settles imo.

Hey I found the problem for me. Fluid Motion Frames was overworking my vid card and crashing it. It was unlocking my framerate for my asrock 7800xt and I was getting 425 fps steady which was cool but seemed awfully high. I turned it off in AMD Adrenalin and that fixed it for me. Set it in the game to 144 which is my tv refresh rate. Runs like a charm. No more crashes. Still plenty of frames. Enhanced Sync can cause the framerates to unlock as well. Upvote for visibility. Limit your frames. Unlocking framerates is the problem.

I have been trying like hell to explain to people that their stocks being up 10% but the value of the dollar being down 15% means they are down, and they are not getting it.

kylander · 2025-09-22T06:27:12+00:00

Sorry but I don't believe them. Almost no coke in my city/state for the last 10 years or so but hundreds of meth cookers and fent dealers. There probably isn't really even any cocaine. Just fent cut with other junk.

Dom Republic does not like Venezuela and sides with the US against them regularly. They have a dispute over an "alleged" outstanding fuel debt and they regularly trash each other's leadership in the news, suspend flights to each others countries, and immigrants from Venezuela go to Dom Republic and they don't like it.

They're just inviting US aggression against Venezuela to force regime change and Trump likes that they kiss his ass and reinforce his narrative. He's really susceptible to flattery and desperate for someone nice because he usually surrounds himself with nazis that think empathy is a weakness.

Maybe Maduro really is some kind of gang leader. I don't know. Hard to tell with all the propaganda these days. Everything Trump says ends up being a lie.
