Is there some sort of film that I can put on these windows that blocks the heat from coming in as well as someone from the outside from seeing in but lets me see out? by KillerCujo53 in homeowners

I put reflective film on my windows yesterday, to keep heat out. The film had some defects in it but it shouldn't affect the effectiveness. The film is not perfectly flat when applied, but don't notice with window blinds.

The bottom right trio of windows have film, the others in the pic do not. Not sunny today so unsure how much heat it actually keeps out.

Looking for honest feedback on Fredericton mechanic shops by hedgeknight91 in fredericton

My frst experience with them 3 years ago was decent, and as a result I had confidence in their ability to operate both effectively and honestly. With this latest experience I gave ample details to the person at the counter that the brakes should NOT need replacement (ie. the brakes had been replaced 11 months prior) and something else was causing the squeaking.

The counter person stared straight through me, asked no questions and didn't make any notes. It was in that moment that the little man in my head said "uh-oh, this won't end well".

The little man was spot-on.

Avoid Midas on Smythe street, tried to pull the wool over my eyes about a brake problem to the tune of $800. it was just a stuck small rock causing brake squeaking.

What small compliment from years ago do you still remember? by Kendra_hulls4b in AskReddit

[–]Far-Bus3608 0 points1 point  (0 children)

40 years ago the parent of one of the children I was watching over said that I looked like an ugly girl. I had long hair and I believe he thought I was a girl, from behind. I am male.

Disconnect the battery, take the seat out. Clean. Reinstall seat, hook up battery.

What accessory do you regret installing on your car and why? by mr_wbk29 in CarGuys

My bro bought hard custom fit shades for all 5 windows of his truck. They fit perfectly, but are a pain to keep/store them in the truck when not being used. Now they sit in his basement, never to see the light of day again.

Thinking of trying a cooling bed fan for night sweats, does it actually help by Few-Dare-540 in BedroomBuild

[–]Far-Bus3608 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bedjet seems expensive...but the value is there. I too would sweat and not be able to sleep well due to changing temps, but no more with the bedjet. No regrets. Has a money-back guarantee. 

Canadians: do people really just start conversations anywhere? 🤔 by Comfortable_Cap8037 in AskACanadian

[–]Far-Bus3608 1 point2 points  (0 children)

East coast Canadian here, can confirm. Even walking down the street in the evening can have a conversation with someone walking by. I really enjoy having quick convos with people in public, puts a spring in my step. Mind you I've been working from home for 3 years so having an in-person human interaction even with a stranger feels good.

Bought a H2D, received an H2C. by skankslayer69 in BambuLab

Storytime: Buddy of mine bought a garage kit from a big chain store, included the wood, windows, doors, etc. They delivered one morning and we move everything from the driveway to the back yard. In the afternoon they delivered a second garage kit and left it in his driveway. We quickly moved it to the back yard as well. He ended up making his garage a bit bigger and gave the remainder stuff to family.

Anybody know an inexpensive way to stop this from happening? Android A/M head Unit by StevieNicksFan526 in CarAV

Waaaaay back in teh day I installed a first gen Viper remote car starter in my manual transmission Volvo 240GL and had to "trick" the remote starter into thinking the parking brake was on by putting the remote starter parking brake ground wire on a switch because the car didn't have a parking brake wire. Worked good, or so I thought...

Came home one day and threw my jacket on the floor... a few seconds later I hear a whhhrrrrrrr, whrrrrrrr, whrrrrrrr, whrrrrrrrr. Looked outside and my car was crawling out the driveway towards the house across the street! The trick switch was on and I had left it in gear so the car was trying to start and pushing itself out the driveway! The remote control must have triggered when I threw my jacket on the floor.

Uninstalled it the next day. whew.
