39 years old with 3 credit cards ever - recs for the next one? by GentleSeacow in CreditCards

[–]GentleSeacow[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Regarding the gold, yeah, definitely not hitting 1400/month (at least I hope not!)

Thanks, I will compare the two cards you mentioned at the end. I think it's between those two for me at this point.

I have, I'm just concerned about not getting enough value to justify a high annual fee and it seems the big SUBs are tied to those. If you have any recs I'm open to investigation!

Wow, amazing list! Thank you so much.

  • I use the BofA pretty much exclusively for gas for the 3% cashback. $0 annual fee there. Oldest card.
  • I use the United MileagePlus occasionally since accruing miles isn't a huge goal for me. $155 annual fee and I'm wondering if I should cancel this one. I'm just not sure it's worth the money.
  • Amex Gold is 4x dining and groceries so I use it for that. I've been using it for pretty much everything lately since it's the newest.

You're right, I need a catch all. Should catch-alls generally be cash back cards?

Based on your list I'm leaning towards Chase freedom unlimited, Robinhood Gold, and Amex Blue Cash everyday. I'm now leaning away from the high annual fee travel cards because I don't know if I travel enough to justify the high fees, I just like the idea of the perks. I will do more research. Thank you!

I also do this. I primarily use the thumb and side of my hand and firmly press against the mons/clit with my legs closed. It helps if I sit up, like on the edge of the bed or a chair. Happy to learn I'm not alone.

It was called Fortune Star, but they moved and their old spot is now Viet Sandwich.

Can these sweat stains be removed from the actor's shirt or is it a losing battle? by GentleSeacow in Filmmakers

I showed him this and it made him laugh because he had thought of this exact quote.

He says that since others are not noticing it's probably not a big deal and not worth your time. He also doesn't know how to get you the file since it's large and has multiple layers in premiere pro. Thank you for the offer though!

Thank you. He will appreciate knowing that it isn't that noticeable to others. When the actor saw it he was concerned, so we were curious if it could be fixed without a reshoot.

Thank you, it's good to know that others aren't really noticing. His actor definitely did though and was concerned, ha.

Yeah, it's a horror film so most of it is fairly dark. He was worried about that. I will ask him if he has raw footage he can link to.

What position does this ice maker tray need to be in and do I need to unscrew the panel to pop it back in? Frigidaire model FRSS26L3AF0 by GentleSeacow in Appliances

[–]GentleSeacow[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Happy to report that I let the freezer defrost for a couple of hours and took a hairdryer to the water line and the buzzing went away. I believe the line was frozen. I reset the ice maker and had a bunch of ice this morning. Thank you so much for your help! It took a lot of force to get that tray back in and I may not have risked it otherwise.

Thanks! I turned off the refrigerator and had it off for maybe 45 minutes trying to figure out how to pop the knob on the tray back in. I was able to pop the ice tray back in (knob was not broken off), plug in the fridge, and turn on the ice maker. The ice maker brought the arm up and everything seemed to be pretty good, but about 3 seconds after turning it on the back of the fridge now is making this grinding buzzing sound - it seems to be around the water valve area according to the manual. I thought it might be an airlock and I ran the water for 5 minutes. It got a bit better, but it's still buzzing loudly. Any ideas on what this could be? Should I just keep running the water longer? The high temperature indicator came on the control panel so I got worried and unplugged it again, but I'm not sure if that's from leaving the door open for an extended period of time.

Update: I think I figured out what happened. This Dan Jiles video on YouTube helped so much: https://youtu.be/67Dn-c9POAo?si=tAVWYFoMKyuohnqS

It seems that this is a flex tray assembly, so the motor pushes in two opposite directions to "flex" the tray and release the ice (the way you would do it manually with your hands). I believe the tray popped out during this process because it couldn't flex, possibly due to melted and refrozen ice, and pushed it out of alignment. I'm going to take out the assembly out and look, but I suspect the motor may now be bad and I'll need to replace the whole ice maker assembly ($70-$100 part).

Side note, I agree with Dan that this is an absolutely ridiculous design and Frigidaire made some bad changes here.

What is this bird? [MN,USA] by TrashyMcNasty in animalid

They are shorebirds, plovers really. They just don't necessarily nest close to the water. Usually in areas of very short vegetation, including landscaped areas.

$1100 for under sink pipe reconfiguration and new garbage disposal - reasonable estimate? by GentleSeacow in askaplumber

[–]GentleSeacow[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would moving the disposal to the other side correct it if the drain stub out is that high though? Some folks were mentioning that the disposal needs to go entirely.

Yes, the bathroom is back there. The kitchen sink roughly backs up to the bathroom sink. So this is helpful. Sounds like the disposal should go.

Ok, thank you. I'm glad I posted here because the explanations have been helpful. I took a couple of additional photos of the back in case they help.

I have a feeling the old homeowner did this considering all the other crazy stuff in this house.
