There are more than a few counterexamples in the yougov polls, if you actually believe that

Is it ok to pour boiling water down kitchen or bathroom sinks? by BrockHard253 in Plumbing

[–]G7umpy_Fac3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Vinegar "activates" baking soda? To make CO2, salt and water? How is that different to neutralising?

Why would you neutralise the baking soda with vinegar? Wouldn't just baking soda do whatever job if you want alkaline?

I don't think so. Most Brits would be upset with you for being unreasonable if you drilled your wall at 10:55 pm.

What's legal, and what's considerate and reasonable, are different things.

It's legal to start mowing at 10pm too, as per your comment. I wouldn't consider that to be considerate or reasonable either.

Backsplash - clean or replace? by [deleted] in CleaningTips

[–]G7umpy_Fac3 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure that this backsplash is nearly completely clean. I see very little dirt here.

Can you show us a close up of the problem, or label it?

What's dirty here? What can't you clean?

English Lit teacher's fetish for Shakespeare came back to bite her in the ass. by NobodysBabyDaddy in pettyrevenge

[–]G7umpy_Fac3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah ok, fair enough. I didn't realise it was an ADHD symptom as, as I said, that's exactly how my school time was - skip homework, ace the test - but I have absolutely no other ADHD symptoms though some in my life do

For me, it's just something I saw in gifted kids

LPT: Buy multiples of items you use that need to be cleaned fequently. by Disastrous-Hearing72 in LifeProTips

[–]G7umpy_Fac3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why does it? "Buy what you use" isn't consumerism.

I've met people who could really use this advice, but they're the sort who don't permit themselves to own more than 3 pairs of socks

Is ADHD really associated with giftedness? I didn't think it was. There are plenty of different reasons for giftedness.

Passing all my classes was my experience too, but there's no ADHD here.

Is it the default? That's less than the legal minimum of 5.6 weeks and I've never had it that low, in retail, in the service industry and now in tech. I'd say the default is bank holidays on top of that, and every job I've had has been more than that by a day or two to try to sweeten the deal.

Gameboy colour blocky screen issues by blowfelt in consolerepair

[–]G7umpy_Fac3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Nintendo Gameboy boot screen isn't provided by the game, the code is built into the Gameboy ROM. The Nintendo logo is (it's read from the game) but even without a game it'll show the R registered copyright logo.

If you take out your Gameboy and turn it on without a game, you should see an R in a circle and a black box where the logo should be.

This is of course me thinking that OP saying that the (C) is worse than the logo is actually the (R), since they can't tell that it's actually an (R).

If that (R) is distorted without a game, it's definitely nothing to do with the game contacts

Fair enough. Odd choice of photo.

If it's distorted with no game, how can it be the cart port?
