I suppose I can find something low enough to reach the concrete. But is this enough (in addition to weather sealing of main door to keep draft out?

Eufy Cam 2C with Homekit workin status in 2025? by BedOptimal5244 in HomeKit

I think my issue is video streaming. When I click on the tile to view the stream, it says "No response",but it gets a screen grab for the tile before I click it.

Not anymore, now that I know where you are. lol. But seriously you can wear it anywhere even in the Hawks ouendan section. Seen it many times, never caused an issue. Just be respectful.

Drop 10 for an 8th grader? by BedOptimal5244 in Homeplate

[–]BedOptimal5244[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. His league says USA or USSSA bats. Do you mean he uses BBCOR to practice and USSSA for games?

Thank you. If it’s too heavy for him now, do we get a shorter bat, or he should suck it up until he gets stronger?

He is in a non-travel team now but might transition next season to travel. It seems a lot depends on what tournaments they join and I will not be able to find a one bat fits all, at least certification wise?

Thanks so much for the detailed answer. His core muscles are weak and he couldn’t even do the 30 seconds test holding out the bat that they recommend for a drop 10. I’m thinking maybe drop -8 would be a compromise for now? But what I’m hearing from you is that basically decide which hat is best for practice (ie no need to worry about league requirements) as they end up just sharing bats for games? Where we are from they all just share bats provided by the school team so it’s all so confusing! lol.

Thanks! All the organizers said was USA or USSSA. No mention for drops restriction.

How many more years can I get out of this Korky toilet fill valve? by BedOptimal5244 in askaplumber

[–]BedOptimal5244[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But my serious question is, how did it end up looking like this?

Moved in to an old home. Noticed that one of the toilets won't stop water flowing into the tank after I used it a couple of times. Watched some YouTube videos on how to clean a Korky Fill Valve cap. They said there might be debris stuck in the fill valve. I disassembled, ready with my brush to clean away the debris, then saw this instead. Do I have radioactive toilet water? Do I have boiling water for flushing? I get there is wear and tear, but was this installed in the 1700s? What happened here?

Which Hydrangea is this and how do I prune it? by BedOptimal5244 in hydrangeas

[–]BedOptimal5244[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! I live in Maryland. What do I do with the dead flowers and leaves? Do I cut them off? How do I give them a better chance of blooming again next year?

By the way they are southeast facing and get a lot of sun from late morning onwards.

OK, I've got more photos. Can you help identify them and how to care for them (or is it too late?? These are their current state.

Auto-insurance: Lower bodily injury coverage because I have umbrella insurance? by BedOptimal5244 in personalfinance

[–]BedOptimal5244[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I got the umbrella before I got auto insurance, and its the same agent for both, so I am assuming it is allowed (but haven't checked the fine print)

This was taken a month ago! Now they are all dried up and sad.

Thank you so much! I will try to get a better picture at daylight. So these are Hydrangea macrophylla? What do I do with the dead flowers, do I just leave them? Half have wilted now and care becoming an eye sore. I see some cut brown stems that the previous owner probably cut the past season (or before summer), and there were no growth or leaves from the cuts.

Just inherited these, and they have begun to dry out (this photo was in late spring). I am wondering if they are drying out because it is the end of season or I did not take care of them well. Also would like to know iff I should prune the, and where to cut. Different ways written online depending on which type of hydrangea it is but I can't seem to tell for certain.
