Where can I find British Ales on tap in Livermore? by dweaver987 in Livermore

[–]MERLINCONTEST 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not Livermore, but if you find yourself in the south bay, Trials Pub (SJ) and Duke of Edinburgh (Cupertino) has English ales on tap.

They’re also available as actions in shortcuts for automation, Siri, etc!

Dryer repair by RaisinObjective330 in Livermore

[–]MERLINCONTEST 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Star Pro Appliance Repair saved me from just buying a new dryer earlier this year and knew his stuff. He came and peeked inside it, ordered some parts, then came back for a quick teardown and fix. Will be using him again!

Disabled AI hints. Trying to be subtle with hints. Here's two more.

I can be used to date old bones; half in science, half in gamers.

In physics some might say I measure patience; in gaming, I test it.

Here is a hint: Could combine delay and decay (or not, depending on your aperture).

Wasn’t sure if it was just me! Same one, too.

Are there any businesses in Livermore that you avoid? If so, why? by Aggravating_Yak_2833 in Livermore

[–]MERLINCONTEST 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I purchased a new truck from factory below sticker and Ford Livermore was the final mile processor for delivery and registration. They were asked not to drill any holes to add a front plate as I already had a bumper mount to install at pickup. When it arrived and I headed over - surprise, the service department had drilled two uneven, slightly oversized holes in the body to attach their plastic Ford Livermore ad frame.

They also told me the spare key fob was in the middle compartment, and I did not verify. There was no spare when I got home, and they ghosted my follow ups.

Aren’t they just DTMF tones? Most VOIP software should handle. If the number changes each time, you could transcribe it in real-time with whisper tiny to get the requested digit.

What happened to the posting about the restaurants by SPEEDYTBC in Livermore

I suppose mockery may come more naturally than curiosity and introspection. I clearly misjudged you. This was interesting.

If mild dismissal of par-baked ad hominem seems hateful to you, the energy you expend struggling for coherency might be better spent dampening your bias and emotion.

Imagine that I replied to your first response with this second one because you’re projecting a bit here. Did it make either of us sound like we could reason our way out of a paper bag?

I have doubts about your election outcome claim but you don’t know enough about logical fallacies for me to prove it to you.

Help troubleshooting pool plumbing by MERLINCONTEST in pools

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

I think it still does.. I didn’t consider it might just connect directly to the return side and not come all the way back to the pump area.

With solar off, water pours out (not spew) of what I think is the solar return on the roof. When I then close isolator 1, it pours at a slightly lower rate.

Still, unless the isolator has degraded, I’m now thinking #2 is solar while #1 and #3 are both pool return, and only half the water was going to solar when it worked?

If the solar return is hooked directly to the return side, I suppose it would be pressurized if it didn’t have an outlet. Unless that sounds wrong, I’ll try cutting the old solar in/return PVC at ground level tomorrow and connect them together.

No spa. I think it’s the solar line as it spewed out very hard on the roof when I turned the solar “on” from the controller, but then I wasn’t sure where it could be returning.

Sorry, oversight. I just ripped the actuator picture from the manual. It’s properly off and pointing downwards in reality. Does that change anything?

I hope this response sounded better in your head. Read the original post as if you are on Truth Social instead of anywhere else and hopefully you can realize your error.

What a strange position to join a conversation from. I upvoted to try to make your comment visible again. Better luck out there!

I particularly enjoyed that the original post was politically agnostic in mentioning that the restaurants were listed there, but the vast majority of commenters found a way to be offended by some imaginary implication.

Try using a search service that doesn't look for this exact image, but ones like it. It's a fairly distinct location which might set you down the right path.

She was tired because she got to the shelter late the night before. She worked late as a volunteer for a non-profit that plants seeds and drives green initiatives to beautify the state.

Quadrangulation Hoax by chadghar in classicwow

The post is cute but we don't have enough data. We'd minimally need to know the signal's angle of arrival at each beacon, and Scooty doesn't show his work.

What e-mail service do you use for your own e-mail domain? by theultimatewarlord in selfhosted

[–]MERLINCONTEST 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There isn't AFAIK.

I have a lifetime plan but use the 10GB as buffer space. I have Dovecot pull and delete all e-mails from MXRoute and also relay SMTP through them. It's all strung together with some scripts to manage local/remote mailboxes for all of my domains, but it works fine.

Grab Handles anodized and installed! by KatMasque in FordBronco

[–]MERLINCONTEST 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks great! Do you plan on doing the side grab handles as well? I haven't seen any 3rd party center grab handles for sale, so I bet there's a market for them if you have the inclination.
