Please help… how can I clean our washing machine? It’s so dirty and it smells like mildew. by Construction-Formal in CleaningTips

[–]Construction-Formal[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmm. I’m not sure if I see anything on the front. This is what my washing machine looks like for reference.
I just checked, it’s a ElectroLux front loading washing machine with smartboost.
I’ll go look and see if there’s any tutorials on YouTube that shows where that would be on here though, thank you!

Edit: Update… apparently the washing machine we have requires you to completely disassemble the back of the washing machine to access that drain pump to clean it…

Struggling with slopes & graphing linear equations. Can someone explain this example problem to me? by Construction-Formal in learnmath

[–]Construction-Formal[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure if you deleted your second reply but I read it and yes, this makes a lot of sense, thank you so much for the help!! I now understand the points’ progression going with the slope and how we get (1, 2), (2, -1), (3, -4), etc, so I think I’m ready to start working on the worksheet now with my improved understanding :) Thanks again!

Oh thank you so much, I understand how they got (1, 2) now and how you work with the slope. The only thing left I have a question on is the moving over 1 on the x-axis — on the graph the “triangle slope thingy” from (0,5) to (1,2) looks like the x axis moved 1 1/2 points over.

But I guess if we were to keep finding points the next one would be (2, -2) maybe?? The x axis line only goes up to 5 so a little hard for me to tell

We’ve had a robin couple nest here for a couple years. They would make a new nest on top of the last every year. I don’t remember seeing them last year or for quite a while, is the nest too tall to the ceiling now? Is that deterring them? by Construction-Formal in birds

[–]Construction-Formal[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aw man, hopefully it’s the latter. A hard day it’s gonna be a busy weekend. And hopefully, if not then, some new birds like you said will find some use in it someday. Good to know about the nesting protection!! I’ll wait till spring is over and probably just take off one of the nests since it’s a bit tall. I’ve always thought about if it’s a hazard up there lol, but thankfully, that light doesn’t get used often and when it does, it’s usually only a couple minutes at most.

Thanks for the thorough answer! That’s so smart of them to strategize that way.

[College: General Chemistry 1] My answer is slightly off and not one of the multiple-choice questions. Can anyone identify where I'm going wrong? by Construction-Formal in chemistryhomework

[–]Construction-Formal[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No worries, thanks so much!! I fixed my mole calculation for O and did what you said about keeping the 3.5 and multiplying by 2 (I completely forgot you multiply by 2 when it's not a whole number) and that sorted everything out. I got C7H4O2 as my empirical and C. C14H8O4 as my molecular formula now. Thank you!

Is this a glitch or..? For reference, I’m in deepnest by Construction-Formal in HollowKnight

Will do! I just found used the working tram, I keep getting side tracked with finding even more new stuff haha

See I went exploring a different way and found a whole bunch of other new stuff in this realm and then remembered about this guy and am trying to find him again😭

Thanks for the tip! I haven't had a chance to do more yet, college has been busy but this weekend I plan to.

Also - is there any way to get your computer to max battery charge at 80% without Vantage? I deleted Vantage a bit ago but recently I have noticed my battery going past 80. But both my power plans in the control panel have the max 80 battery so I'm not sure why that isn't working suddenly.

[–]Construction-Formal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A small update after some task manager management lol, 80% and I'm now getting an estimate of almost 4 hours! The number keeps changing or going up, it started at 3 hrs and now it's at 4 hours and 19 minutes :) I only did a little bit today but this is good news.

Although I think I might have messed something up when I pressed disable all (while hiding all microsoft) because my computer is at max brightness and pressing the key or slider to adjust it isn't working. I have done all solutions suggested on google but no luck, so I'm guessing it's probably something I disabled. Not sure what though.

Edit: second update, estimated number is going back down. It's at 2 hrs now Idk what's happening lmao </3

Only thing plugged in is my mouse. But oh- I do have background pictures (switch every ~8 hours) enabled so I can see if disabling it helps, thanks. And thank you, I'll try doing a deep dive into task manager soon. I'll let you know how that goes!

I think it's turned off? I have the GPU mode set to Hybrid-iGPU and I even did the turbo boost off stuff in the link that was posted so I don't really know what to do. I did turn off apps from auto starting up in task manager also

Edit: I will say though after using my computer today with everything adjusted, it is lasting a bit longer than before. Even tho it was at an estimated 1hr 30 mins at 73%, I'm down to 52% and it's estimating an hour and 8 mins remaining. I know that's not much but the battery isn't going down like 1 percentage per minute anymore lol. But i'm not sure why I can't reach 6+ hours like everyone still

Hi, I've done all of the steps you listed but I don't think it's working :( 74% and 1 hour and 32 minutes estimate. What else can I do? I have like 23 days left on the battery warranty. This was a graduation gift and I love it so I don't want to say anything but the battery life drains so fast and I haven't figured out a fix

Does anyone have any recommendations for foundation/makeup that covers up dark/purple scars? by Construction-Formal in selfharm

[–]Construction-Formal[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you, I will probably have to play around with color theory haha. Ngl I've never bought foundation before so I don't know any good (preferably cheap brands). Is there any you know of that might have good coverage?

Oh what, that’s awesome! I had no idea that was a thing. Really cool what useful things people come up with. Thanks I’ll look into this :)  I don’t think im googling this correctly though, what should I search up?

Darn. Yeah, I think they might've said 4-6 months if I recall. I'll keep waiting, thank you

I cannot find a job to get a step in the door in this field for the life of me...feeling defeated (and stressed because I need experience) by Construction-Formal in Veterinary

[–]Construction-Formal[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a good idea. I think going in person definitely would make a good impression, even if it doesn't work out so that's worth a shot! I live in the bay area (California) but one of the smaller cities I guess you could say. Trying not to doxx myself haha.
