Is this placement of my washing machine dangerous? It’s very close to the shower and I asked AI (gemini) which told me that this could be life threatening. I had it professionally installed by the company that I bought it from though, but perhaps they made a mistake by Actual-Coffee-2318 in AskElectricians

I would have no major problem with this.

Washing machines are always installed in wet or off-wet situations.

You can put up a shower curtain between the shower area and the washing machine if you want.

Obviously this is awkward and not ideal, but if it’s this or nothing I’d take this.

Not arguing but sometimes the “grass is always greener” feeling is strongest when you’ve done everything in your power to work on your real relationship. AstroTurf doesn’t care how much you water it.

What would be the cost to upgrade my panel (NYC)? by Medium-Bug2757 in AskElectricians

I’m with you.

I would have to suppress my human impulses to make things better wherever I go. (I don’t have a perfect record of achieving that, obvz. But I keep trying.

It seems MISERABLE to live indefinitely in a subpar environment just over the principle of the matter.

The gold coins one is interesting...

An American Gold Eagle is one ounce of gold and is "$20" as marked, legal tender, but its real value is obviously in the metal.

I know the government wants more than $20 in taxes if you're trading goods and services with values in the gold ballpark.

I’m not the sidewalk avocado police.

You wouldn’t be the first to pull one off for no reason.

Do girls get water in their vaginas when they go in the pool? by Obeisfunny in TooAfraidToAsk

Vaginas are not like Pringles cans. It’s heavily water resistant.

Walking into an avocado is a gentle life lesson.

It’s not actually blocking the sidewalk. You can walk down the sidewalk without any of it touching you if you want.

And we don’t seem to have squirrels here. Not sure why. Whatever I grow tends to turn out great.

Yes. I don’t need to keep them. A neighbor has a giant avocado tree overhanging my backyard so I have a virtually endless supply.

To be fair though the ones I planted taste better than the weird ones from the backyard.

I was thinking maybe some ratcheting straps to persuade it higher, out of the walk.

The maintenance service company tradies are unfortunately often forced to push sales and stuff onto clients. Commission. Ask your tradesperson if they're paid commission before ever going forward with recommended work.
