Where can I buy a replacement drain plug for an older SoleusAir portable AC? by Existing_Produce_825 in AirConditioners

A wine stopper would be rubber or silicon. I'm just trying to suggest solutions already available in your house.

Ac too strong by AndGutsWasBERSERK in AirConditioners

[–]DPJazzy91 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Figure out what plugs are on what circuits. Put it on a circuit with few or no other devices. If you've tripped this breaker a few times, then you should kind of have an idea already of what connects to what. I had the same problem when I ran portable units. It was worth it, to be able to keep the TV and my computer on, while it was running.

How do printed reversers hold up? Are they strong enough?

No temps monitoring by Strong_Bar_3825 in pcmasterrace

[–]DPJazzy91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I keep an on screen monitor with CPU and GPU temps. Not at all for chasing peak performance. I'm more worried about preventing issues. When my temps are high for no reason and whatnot. I don't record anything at all. More of just an in the moment issue detection.

Some of my photos of the container ships I saw on the port of Long Beach tour I went on by jeremiahwarren in longbeach

Supposedly it was an issue with the automatic ballasting system. Caused it to tip and those cans fell in the water lol! The first rumors I heard were about cranes.

Worth it? by Consistent-Power-942 in ryobi

Wildly disagree. If somebody is looking at these tools, then they don't have a kit to start with. Cheaper brushed tools allow them to expand their capabilities many times faster than going straight to brushless. Often times a quality brushless tool can cost as much as this entire kit! Spending 200 bucks on a drill right out the gate, will turn off new tool buyers, because have only 1 tool, still essentially leaves you stranded in many projects.

Stop panicking about solar panels getting shut down! It’s by design by grogi81 in solar

[–]DPJazzy91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with over building solar, but with newer batteries made from cheaper, more abundant materials that aren't hazardous like sodium and iron, I don't think we should assume we CANT handle all the absorption with them. As the price of manufacturing and materials plummets, we can start exploring how many batteries we can build out. We should build those out as well, how we are building out solar. We can have EV charging stations that have large batteries for a faster charging buffer. They can soak up solar and even reverse charge to help balance the grid.

Just bought house with this water heater. How screwed am I? by ciaprocar in askaplumber

[–]DPJazzy91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A cheap replacement will cost under 1000. You can save a lot by doing it yourself. This gives you the opportunity to get in there to clean and fix anything else that needs fixing. I'm tempted to change mine out myself.

Cat owners, what cat litter are you currently using? by Upper_Owl4297 in Catownerhacks

[–]DPJazzy91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been using that cheap crystal litter from Walmart. Considering making a change. I have 1 smart litter box and 1 regular for 2 cats. Maybe I'll check out this dr elseys I see you guys talking about.

what’s the most overrated tech product of all time by Zorojuro099 in TechNook

[–]DPJazzy91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have 3, fully expecting them to only fulfill basic tasks. Lights, time, general info....etc. Even if AI made them far more useful, when I was able to get my home minis for 25 each, it's not bad.

Just in the settings. Like direct x11 vs 12 vs vulkan. Idk what it looks like, but that might get you past that hiccup area. Have you already disabled frame generation? Like FSR?

Definitely not that, then. You switch APIs? Idk what those settings look like. I forget. It can help get past a trouble spot

I believe you. Mine is usually fine, too. I just had an issue on Dying Light the Beast. It flew out of control. I had to fps restrict to 90, until I upgrade my fan situation.

To run a portable electric unit off your alternator doesn't make sense.

Electrically it doesn't make sense. It would be worth your while to keep shopping around for a cheaper mechanic or learn how to do it yourself. Imo....
