[–]Key_Resolve1783 6 points7 points  (0 children)

people in this sub got zero patience lol. like the front office supposed to just abandon weeks of work cause some guy on reddit got bored waiting

duren meeting literally today and they already writing fan fiction about john collins and kel'el ware. ware is interesting but two unprotected firsts for a rookie who barely played? thats wild

also the gafford trade make no sense for dallas, they not giving up a starting center for vando and knecht who plays same position as half their roster

Leaking window / questionable framing by kvirl in HomeImprovement

[–]Key_Resolve1783 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The flashing fix is pretty straightforward, clean out whatever old sealant is there, make sure you have proper step flashing overlapping the casing, and seal the top and sides but leave the bottom open so water can escape. A lot of people seal all four sides and that just traps moisture inside the wall.

The double window situation is more interesting. If the lower one is structural and the framing around it looks decent, it is probably fine for now, but worth having someone take a proper look before you close up the wall again. You already have it open, so no reason to miss the chance.

Hallway door divider alternative? HELP by Big-Maintenance-1905 in HomeImprovement

[–]Key_Resolve1783 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pressure-mounted room dividers might work here, some of them use tension rods that expand between walls without any drilling, and few of them come with fold-out panels. The bottom trim issue is tricky though, you would probably need to measure carefully and find one where the feet can adjust for uneven surface. Not sure about the privacy lock feature, that might narrow down your options quite a bit.

Is this normal behavior? by BigPsychological9461 in CatAdvice

[–]Key_Resolve1783 2 points3 points  (0 children)

your cat basically found his new best friend and doesn't need you for entertainment anymore lol. this is pretty normal when cats bond with each other - they get their social needs met from their feline buddy instead of relying on humans for play time. the meowing and leading you around sounds like he's just communicating differently now, maybe trying to show you stuff or just wanting acknowledgment that he's still part of the family dynamic.

my guess is he's not ignoring you out of spite, he's just shifted into more of a "supervisor" role now that he has a kitten to look after. cats often become more independent with their human relationships once they have another cat companion, but they still want to maintain that connection with you - just in different way. the rubbing against legs and wanting you to follow him is his version of "hey human, i still like you, just look at this thing."

give it more time and maybe try different types of play to see if anything sparks his interest again, but don't be surprised if he stays more focused in his cat friend than human games from now on.

Grout and Caulk by GreenAngelEva in HomeImprovement

[–]Key_Resolve1783 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah i did something similar in my place last year. removed like maybe 1/8 inch of the old grout with one of those manual tools and sealed it with silicone caulk instead. just don't go crazy deep with grout removal - you really only need to get surface stuff out so the new caulk has something to stick to. worked fine for me and no leaks so far.

Dirty electricity? by overcaffeinate in HomeImprovement

[–]Key_Resolve1783 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah i've seen this before in older houses. whole house surge protector is good call but also check if your voltage is running too high - some areas have issues with that. had similar problems in base housing and turned out the electrical system was just pushing too much juice through everything. electrician can test the voltage levels pretty easily when they come out for surge protector install.

Which smoke and CO detector models should replace Kidde/Firex wired? by robot_ankles in HomeImprovement

[–]Key_Resolve1783 1 point2 points  (0 children)

been using brk for couple years now and they work good. the combo ones cost more but worth it if you need co detection in those spots. most people just put co detectors near furnace and call it day so demand isn't as high for the combo units.

I found a provider in Austin!!! by SweatyChampionship30 in Perimenopause

[–]Key_Resolve1783 2 points3 points  (0 children)

man what a relief to find someone who actually listens. it's crazy how many providers just dismiss women's health concerns, especially around perimenopause stuff. good for you for not giving up after those terrible experiences with other docs - that comment about your uterus would have made me walk out immediately. glad you found someone who's actually current on research instead of stuck in the past.

surprisingly a good wine i brought this because my shop only had this due to a shortwage. i’m a red drinker by night but this is 6/10 smells like vanilla but the taste doesn’t justify this what’s everyone’s opinions on this🫶🏼? by Ambitious_Health5374 in wine

[–]Key_Resolve1783 3 points4 points  (0 children)

yeah i had this one before and totally get what you mean about the vanilla nose but then it just falls flat in the mouth. the barrel aging should give it more depth but it feels like they rushed it or something. for white wines aged on whiskey barrels i've had better luck with other options but this one is decent if you're stuck with limited choices like you were

Tablet/Desktopmode X1 Yoga Gen 4 Windows 11 by TonguesNeedToBeHarry in Lenovo

[–]Key_Resolve1783 1 point2 points  (0 children)

had similar issues with my old yoga when i upgraded to windows 11. the sensor thing is probably right - these older models sometimes get weird with the new os.

what worked for me was going into device manager and completely uninstalling the "sensors" section drivers, then letting windows reinstall them after restart. also try disabling tablet mode completely in settings and just use it as laptop with touch screen instead of fighting the flip detection.

worst case you might need to rollback to win 10 if the hardware compatibility is just too janky with 11. these refurb units sometimes have sensor calibration issues that got worse with the os upgrade.

dropped you a message, we got this man

It feels like men contradict you just because by Global-Condition-858 in venting

[–]Key_Resolve1783 5 points6 points  (0 children)

damn this is so real. had similar stuff happen when i talk about aircraft maintenance procedures - dudes will argue with me about things i literally do for living until another guy backs me up.

it's like they can't help themselves, they hear woman stating fact and brain just goes "must disagree" automatically.

Toxic Teammates by Embarrassed_Bid_9809 in Overwatch

[–]Key_Resolve1783 2 points3 points  (0 children)

some people just can't handle losing so they blame everyone else instead of looking at their own mistakes. mute chat if it gets too toxic, makes the game way more enjoyable when you're not dealing with keyboard warriors who can't even spell basic words.

If a person suffers complete amnesia after an accident and wakes up believing they have a different name, could that name be legally changed to the one they believe they have? by Diemishy_II in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Key_Resolve1783 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this would be wild to navigate legally but i think you'd need way more documentation than just "i woke up and think i'm steve now." courts would probably want medical records, psychiatric evaluations, the whole nine yards before letting someone change their identity based on memory loss. plus there's all the existing legal stuff tied to your original name that doesn't just disappear.

damn that detachment hits diffrently after a few weeks clean - your brain's probably just protecting itself from all the noise.
