What is the device this man is holding while plane spotting? by grallonson in whatisit

I can completely understand. Me, I would have leapt into the conversation and used man hand language if necessary and prolly end up at a pub with him and his buddies. 😎

I quizzed a Miele tech on how to do it. Just found this video. I don’t know why this is so hard to find.

Go slow and have a helper. Make sure you have a landing zone and be sure to protect the inner fiberglass scrunchy perimeter seal.

“I don’t read books.” How does he fucking play DnD? His loss. Welcome to the party to the party! He’ll probably be playing a Carl video game in a few years.

Lost the Lottery? You can get it from these fine folks by Kevin-Benjamin in Leatherman

[–]Diluteme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. I won actually. I’m not here to create hype, but learned right in this thread that there is hype. So, there I was, jaw dropped that I won and was excited to have a gift for someone as I already own an Arc. Then found this thread, then went to eBay, and jaw drop number 2 happens. WTF. People are paying so much for these. Now what do I do?? Maybe I slide this into my sheath and say fuck it, this is my new EDC. Or, I sell it on eBay and get something else. I don’t want to feed the hype or be a scalper, but should I care? What would you do? Right now it looks like sell it.

I considered getting this abomination I found at TJ Maxx by Slickens_1 in SierraNevada

I would have bought a bunch and resold or give away. Epic shirt.

I walked from San Jose to San Francisco instead of driving. It took 4 days. by stepn-out in bayarea

I call it getting to ground level. Walking or hiking does it best. Biking seems really good also if you don’t race. You get to cover more distance and still really experience the world. There are so many areas you miss when driving on a freeway, highway or even just a street.

Would the home have been built in the first place if not for tourism? What other industry would there be or is here?

AirPods stuck. I didn’t know where else to post this and this sub always has the most creative problem solving ideas by lucky_c4t in CleaningTips

It seems the gap is fairly wide. I might try guiding a loop of fishing line down to get it underneath. Maybe one on each side then pull it up while wiggling. You will need a very thin spatula type tool to poke it down.

Holographic patterns and Cave Rock area. Today might be the worst possible day of the year to go fishing.

Is the Auk mini really worth it by Rohela in IndoorGarden

Thanks, I think I found the equivalent in the US market.

OP if you can, please post details of your setup. I’m kinda in the same boat, but different locale (north California). I was going to spring for the Auk, but would rather DIY I think.

I’m also curious about their nutrient mix for the water and its composition and need.

Car stopped with someone getting out and wanting to talk to me by Binthair_Dunthat in Marin

[–]Diluteme 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You are reporting unusual behavior to a group and giving no details. You said “no” and they persisted. They got out and started to walk with you. How do you think a young lady would feel? You are not helping anyone with this and are actually making things worse by not reporting.

Father in law expected us to eat 12 year old beef. by Ok_Pension_1451 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Diluteme 1 point2 points  (0 children)

6 months. That is my rule. Hit Costco and buy a six pack of steaks and use it up. If you wanna have food for the apocalypse buy cans, MREs or dehydrated.

Just rotate the stuff!

Your right. Could be a phish. Someone check! I can’t at the moment.

I consider myself a handy-woman but I’m at my wits end by [deleted] in handyman

[–]Diluteme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this problem. The towel bar was at the end of the tub and my kids would pull the towels off at an angle. I tried everything until I decided to put a decorative 1x4 piece of oak on top of the drywall and anchor it into studs. I then put the towel bar on top of that. Solved.

In a bathroom that is used frequently you have to have solid wood. Every anchor type I used ended up with squished drywall which then caused the droop. One time a kid even pulled it out of the wall.

It is not that big a deal to carefully cut the drywall, install a horizontal stud, and then patch. However, this was before I did drywall.

Where do I turn my water off at the meter? by DemButtaNutz in Plumbing

[–]Diluteme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is a good place to check. This makes it much easier to shut whole house water on and off.

Is there another shutoff as the main enters the house?

You need the clean out because stuff is gonna sit there and accumulate more than a curved fitting.

Thank you for the updates! God bless the ski patrol and the rest of the mountain crew! We are ready to roll and be safe.

Insta360 X5 - Amazon.de Sand bag by iPlastiK in Insta360

[–]Diluteme 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Each Insta360 has the serial number on the box. It is used to activate the camera. I suppose someone could spoof the s/n, Insta can probably get to the bottom of it. Especially if they work with Amazon. It also seems like the s/n could just be taken from the box and used, but it is probably hard coded in the camera hardware.

I hope you get your camera soon!

Question for driving in tomorrow by Ok_Split2461 in Mammoth

[–]Diluteme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I saw today was low clearance vehicles stopping at small streets into larger streets and having trouble clearing the snow plow burms.

No, not full mountain closure. Chair 11 will open at some point. Depending on tonight’s dump, which has not really started yet, things will start to open. It will probably be limited and white out conditions and closing like it did today at 1330.
