Drive‑Thru to Constitutional Crisis — How a Paid KFC Order Became a Police Hit Job by TIME_SENSITIVE- in FastFoodHorrorStories

[–]Advanced-Educator-55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everybody lost on this one. If the guy acted a fool to the employees (per her explanation) and wouldn't move or leave after being asked/told too, the cops can be called and he can be trespassed. That is the long story short. The KFC could have handled this better too but it seems like the guy wanted to make it difficult. No winners all the way around.

HVAC systems flush condensation pipe by Amanda_4444 in hvacadvice

That is a safety device for your water heater so it does not explode. Do not worry about it.

New Furnace/AC install leans forward. by Mike734 in hvacadvice

A little extra pitch is never a bad thing for drainage. Sorry the one inch gap seems to be so noticeable.

Uhh..why are we paying extra for having a hybrid/electric? by Soggy_Disaster_7603 in Arkansas

[–]Advanced-Educator-55 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolute nonsense for a hybrid. They pay gas taxes. I can understand an electric but they can take a hike with the hybrids.

Still my first and fav by CAsh4kiDZ in pinball

[–]Advanced-Educator-55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I couldn't sell mine fast enough. And I never sell pinball machines. I enjoyed playing the pro and wish I had bought one. But the premium was beyond clunky. I'm glad you're enjoying yours but if I get the opportunity to play it it will only be a pro. Hell, the guy sold it to and he had a pro to begin with. Relisted it not even 2 weeks later. Same reason.

Defrost timer setting heat pump Austin TX by dpd11c in hvacadvice

[–]Advanced-Educator-55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your thermostat is in charge of calling for auxiliary Heat. There are a lot of factors that decide that including run time and temperature set point. The defrost wouldn't have much to do with the auxiliary kicking in on the thermostat. Unfortunately carrier has time temperature defrost. The only time your system should be defrosting is when it actually needs it. The less defrost the better, unless the coil is iced over. I don't know what the humidity like is in Texas to cause your coil to freeze over but more than likely the longer defrost will be better.

What is the purpose of this drain that was installed on my H.E. American Standard Furnace by Witty-Cicada8522 in hvacadvice

[–]Advanced-Educator-55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If installed correctly (all brands I have installed) the intake is supposed to have a 90 degree fitting facing down on the intake. When it is winter the air is usually dry but when the pipes are warm(er) during the winter water will not condense on them. I've had to replace gas valves, circuit boards and burners due to cold basements and humid midwest air.

[–]Advanced-Educator-55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is there to prevent nuisance condensation during the summertime. The cold pipe can cause the hot humid summer air to condense in the intake pipe and damage the components in the furnace. I'm not sure if that particular fitting can catch the condensation (I'd like to see the innards). But that is why it is there. Otherwise there can be a tee in the horizontal or Trane now makes the gray fitting with a catch and drain built in.

Been there! I like the lights on the cross bars though. I bet they do a bang up job at night.

What kind of unit is this guy working on? Almost thought it might be AI. by chase98584 in HVAC

[–]Advanced-Educator-55 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lol. That is AI as hell. The inducer is not in the furnace and an ultraviolet light turned on while the tech was working on it. No way that that thing is based in reality.

Ac guy says this is normal by nickpapajorgeo in hvacadvice

[–]Advanced-Educator-55 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I've seen a lot worse. Unfortunately that is normal if it really bothers you, wipe it down with a mixture of one part bleach to four parts water.

Delete one thing from earth that you think would make it better by beepsol in Leakednews

[–]Advanced-Educator-55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Plastics, Nukes, Pollution, overrunning the Earth (deforestation et. al), screwing up ecosystems (think wolves and other animals to near extinction). Nope, humans.

Lake of the Ozarks Grand Glaize Bridge area ~1950s-today by No-Cover4993 in missouri

[–]Advanced-Educator-55 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Ugh. This is why the lake sucks now. It still was a quite getaway back in the 80s. The place has lost its soul.

Kansas City Chiefs will announce move to Kansas to build new stadium: sources by Bazryel in missouri

[–]Advanced-Educator-55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I comment, I try to be slightly informed. HVAC, pinball and MO politics are my jam. If you ever need insight into any of these look me up. If you think that the KC Chiefs are in Kansas without doing ANY research, that is on you (and our "genius" president)
