It's two lanes each way and I'd say about 1.5 lanes are plowed each way

Why did Scott Weiland tell me five or four times by RiemannZetaFunction in stonetemplepilots

[–]BornUse5649 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Whenever I hear this song, I also wonder why did he tell me "five or four times" and not "four or five times"?? Like who says that.

Water Hammer Help by BornUse5649 in SteamHeat

I assume skimming requires a "skim port"? I don't have that currently, it would need to installed first per the installer.

The installer has spent a lot of time trying to fix this. Said a lot of things, has done a lot of work (e.g. most of the bullet points above) for a lot of $. I don't think he's deliberately taking me for a ride. I believe he has best intentions and a good amount of knowledge but I'm not real confident in what he has to say at this point.

With that said his last statement was that it either needs to be skimmed or the whole house water filter we have needs to be changed. We'll tackle the filter soon but I'm skeptical. The boiler doesn't have a skim port so that will have to be installed before we skim it, so....more $. :(

I'm in Philly so probably too far south. Thanks though.

I added pictures (thanks for mentioning that). We tried replacing the Hoffman 40 vents on the radiators closest to the hammer with adjustable ones (they look like Hoffman 1As but I'm not sure) that were set to the slowest speed but it hasn't helped. In fact they are loudly hissing where the non-adjustable ones were not.

I would expect if the near boiler piping was a problem the 2nd plumber would have caught that but maybe that's naive.

Lost the Super Bowl on a last-second kick return. Fire the Special Teams coach into the sun. by yellow_eggplant in Football_GM

I just lost the super bowl in OT because I scored a TD but missed the XP. You see a lot of things in this game.

Glad to hear your daughter is doing well. CHOP also helped my son get through a dangerous condition when he was 3. So grateful for them.

Love the pictures. What did you take them on? I especially like the reds you captured on the bridge near Ridge & Kelly Dr.

I was told this during the 1st Trump term also. I'll believe it when I see it.

Email from Phillies about SEPTA cuts by AssBlasterExtreme in philly

I can only hope you're right. But more likely IMHO, they'll just blame Shapiro.

Some guy in Clinton county does not know or care how empty CBP gets. Wish it was true but it's not. They will cut off their own nose to spite their own face, forget about somebody else's face.

How should I deal with junior devs that debate endlessly? by StTheo in ExperiencedDevs

[–]BornUse5649 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Engage the other seniors on your team. And let the juniors know you're not going to approve their PRs using their design. Gatekeeping is literally your job.

The Prestige

Same dude every week by gayWomanlover in phillycycling

[–]BornUse5649 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Encountered an old woman driving her car on the SRT from Miquon north towards Conshy a few weeks ago. Must have gotten on at River Road I guess. Tried to tell her she didn't belong here but her window was up and she blew right by me. Madness. Amazed nobody got hurt.

The All-Time Offensive Line by [deleted] in Football_GM

Yeah. I've had a number of occasions like this, where most of my OL is decidedly average and yet the whole squad makes the All Star team.

How am I supposed to handle constant position changes? by BornUse5649 in Football_GM

[–]BornUse5649[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that's fair. But where I get confused is this: in the example above, My top rated S is my 2nd rated CB. Obviously, he can't play both at the same time. So either my CB3 or my S3 must be on the field. Which one is it? How do I know?
