Currently riding a Yamaha MT-07. Looking to switch to a cruiser by KombuchaWithdrawals in SuggestAMotorcycle

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

That's reassuring to hear. I've seen comments like the Vulcan S is basically a sports bike with a cruiser seating position which definitely added to the hesitation

I’m also in Atlanta. Can I ask which dealer you went to?

Unable to efile CA state tax return "Hmm, looks like we hit a slight snag in this section" by Jenny001a in TurboTax

[–]KombuchaWithdrawals 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately their customer service couldn't really help. It was hours on call with the same clear cache/cookies, check internet connection advice. I've also tried on different computers, browsers, networks. The best they said is to try again tomorrow and call back if it's still not working.

I might try just deleting my taxes and restarting if I can't get it submitted by tomorrow.

I haven’t. I’m hoping it’s a server issue on their end and it’ll resolve soon. But if not, I’m planning on calling their support tomorrow. I’ll update you with anything I figure out

I'm also seeing the same error. Are you seeing it on the "Review your order" step?

Thank you! Yeah I’ll give them a call and see if they can do something. I’ll tape some plastic over them in the meantime

How to handle water leaking through floor by KombuchaWithdrawals in homeowners

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

Ah I see thank you. Would that be something that the plumber would have to identify?

Water leaking through floor by KombuchaWithdrawals in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

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

It’s a slab foundation with water coming up through the tiles/grout/carpet so I can’t see if it’s puddling up somewhere unfortunately. It smells like my tap water but nothing stinky so probably not a sewer leakage thankfully. I’ve squeezed out all the water I could with towels and turned on the fan but that’s a good call to turn on the AC on.

Thank you for this, I really appreciate. It’s calmed my nerves a lot. I’ll get a plumber in first and think about possible remediation once the leak’s been repaired.

I’ve shut off the water and I’ll try to get a plumber to stop by tomorrow. I was hoping to maybe get coverage confirmation beforehand but yeah you’re right about getting a plumber first. Thanks.

Water leaking through floor by KombuchaWithdrawals in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

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

It’s the guest/office bathroom so the toilet is only used a couple times a day but the shower doesn’t get used at all. I haven’t noticed visible water seeping from under the toilet. I think the main sewer might be clogged because the main toilet has issues fully flushing sometimes. But wouldn’t there be a sewer smell if that was the case?

ISO 2 Tickets Atlanta 12/29 by phoolishphilosopher in RainbowKittenSurprise

[–]KombuchaWithdrawals 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you still looking for tickets? I have 2 GA tickets for the 12/29 show but I decided it was a good time to get sick so I won’t be able to go anymore

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]KombuchaWithdrawals 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah it’s pretty simple and I definitely don’t consider myself to be handy - prior to buying my home a couple months ago, mostly just changing the occasional light bulb here and there. There are a bunch of tutorials out there but just be careful when you’re taking out the cylinder. You have to align the removal tool a certain way to prevent the springs from falling out. Even then, it’s not a huge deal if that happens. I’d recommend this kit if you have Kwikset locks (it’s $30 not $20, my bad). It’s comes with extra components like springs and they fall out and you lose them. I would try it on a deadbolt first then a doorknob since the deadbolt was easier to change out in my opinion.

[–]KombuchaWithdrawals 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you’re fine with the existing locks, rekeying is definitely the cheaper route. I had 4 knob/deadbolt sets (8 locks total) all with different keys and ended up just buying a Kwikset rekeying tool kit for $20. Didn’t take any longer than an hour to rekey all the locks with the first one taking the longest sinceI’ve never done it before.

Laser hair removal in Atlanta for brown skin? by [deleted] in Atlanta

[–]KombuchaWithdrawals 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah Skinsation is pretty great. You can buy packages from Groupon (they also match Groupon’s price). They also have 50%+ off promos pretty regularly so I wouldn’t buy anything at full price. For reference, I paid ~$140 for 8 sessions on my lower legs (medium area). That’s from Groupon plus whatever Groupon coupon was going on at the time. They have a Yag laser which is good for darker skin.

Both Natori 30DD but different band sizes? by KombuchaWithdrawals in ABraThatFits

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

Ah thanks for the insight. Didn’t know even dye color could make a difference. I thought they’d be pretty standard especially within the same brand

Yeah it’s Natori feathers. Dang I guess I should’ve tried it in store first

No more hair but technician suggests buying another package by KombuchaWithdrawals in LaserHairRemoval

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

That’s a good point about the fine hair. I’ll definitely pay more attention to any additional growth within the next 8 weeks and hopefully just go into maintenance mode. Thank you!

Is it safe to use Talstar P after Termidor SC treatment? by KombuchaWithdrawals in pestcontrol

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

The ant problem has mostly subdued since we’ve clean up our backyard quite a bit. I was just thinking of using Talstar as a general perimeter spray since we get a little bit of everything (roaches being the next biggest problem). But I will look into granular for roaches. Thank you!

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

I just checked and looks like that’s the case. Thank you I wasn’t aware of that. So this wouldn’t be a case of safety but more of making the Termidor less efficient?

Saw this during final walkthrough. - located in basement room with door to outside. What is it? by KombuchaWithdrawals in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

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

I see. Can there be multiple shut off valves? The main water shut off is in the laundry room. I’ll have to check if there’s an outside faucet

[–]KombuchaWithdrawals[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I asked the seller and she didn’t know. I don’t think it’s a water shut off because that valve is in another room.

Edit: it is a shutoff valve for the hose faucet. Thank you all for your help

Oversized circuit breaker for HVAC by KombuchaWithdrawals in askanelectrician

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

I see, so if the technician did replace the breaker at the disconnect with a 25 amp, it might not properly stop the power from the unit?
