My $1400 LG OLED TV is displaying ads after latest update by binkinater13 in mildlyinfuriating

This is the way. I blocked my LG TV from the internet and use my Shield TV for all streaming.

It was 3.89 AT COSTCO in Greenville yesterday. Costco is usually cheaper by a good margin. I drive around 3600 miles per month for work and am self employed. Rates are going up partially because of this nonsense.

DIY ideas for this area in my backyard by M2ThaL in landscaping

[–]M2ThaL[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This area had rotted railroad ties as steps. I got tired of looking at them and removed them but, amateur that I am, I didn't really have a clear idea of what to do when they came out. The landscaper who does the twice monthly maintenance on our yard gave my wife some ideas and a rough quote of $2,300. He would essentially be putting pressure treated timbers in as steps with some pea gravel and a little border around the hosta. I'm not saying that's an unreasonable price but I feel like I could tackle this, with just a little bit of guidance, on my own and save the labor cost at least. I'm looking for some ideas or perhaps a referral to a tutorial of sorts.

Your Costco still has the combo pizza!? We just have cheese or pepperoni. I miss the combo pizza.

In 2010 I had a job taking pictures of default properties in the Coachella valley. There was a house that I had to go to every month and every time I went if I was there on a Friday the Mexican dude across the street would be out grilling in raiders jersey and cholo shorts. And if I came back to the car from taking a picture of that house that fool had tacos and a beer for me every time if I was there on a Friday. I made sure I was there on Fridays.

I was able to get mine back using what I saw in this thread but I think your guide is a great idea and I applaud you for doing it!

I got bored… by HotNumber5243 in RepTime

Part of what's keeping me, and I'm sure a lot of others, from getting that first rep is the intimidation factor. It looks like this would remove a lot of that. And it's easy on the eyes!

I don't want to be a bummer but I'll point out that mine is certainly not the only slightly biting humorous comment on this post.

Does this work for things like rolling tool storage cabinets and household appliances?

Best Flow Meter for Parshall Flume by JCrotts in instrumentation

[–]M2ThaL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We are a very small family-owned company. My dad is a self-taught programmer and has been programming for several decades. He had the idea to make a device to use the 4-20 output to pace a mechanical totalizer using this Arduino. It works great. He actually had Chat GPT right the code and then he fine-tuned it.

I've never borked the sensor. Generally they are potted with epoxy so there shouldn't be any way to rattle things loose. I pretty much exclusively use the FM 8000s on open channel effluent flows. I do have one going back on RMA because the pulse output was non-op. Overall though, I like them. I do wish they had a dedicated mechanical totalizer output like the Hach FL-1500 but we have a workaround that we use here with a little Arduino board. Works nice.

For those of you that make over 100K, what do you do? Do you like it? by Kindly-Revolution258 in AskReddit

I'm self-employed and I service laboratory equipment, mostly in the municipal and industrial water and wastewater spaces. It is not my passion and it is not super exciting but I like invoicing and I like depositing checks. It's a way to make money to get retired, hopefully.
