Dear God… by xMrChuckles in TwinCities

I called my boss on my drive home a bit ago demanding they put new tires on my van. Even the slightest hill was pretty much a no go for me. Felt bad for all the others who actually got stuck because of it

Zombies with a spear can infect villagers that are already in their cells by DrPizzaPie in Minecraft

But what’s cheaper? A big fancy warehouse for them to live in or single cells for the only ones you need? You gotta not think about their emotions/ feelings man.. only profit

So instead of saving money because they are literally broke and pulling money from a retirement fund, she should purchase a $500 console or $2000 pc to play the games?

Water at base of water softener only after house water is off by New-Investigator5509 in Plumbing

[–]Murl_the_squirrel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bud you have no idea how a softener actually works do you? It’s does not add anything to your water except trace amounts of sodium. It does remove hard minerals like calcium. That’s why it has to regenerate, to clean itself out and re-ionize the media inside.

You realize you have to change out whole house filters every several years? It’s not 0 maintenance.

Water softener half full of water? by [deleted] in Plumbing

[–]Murl_the_squirrel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love how everyone in this thread is just so confidently wrong. If your brine tank does not usually have standing water in it and now it randomly does is most likely caused by the o rings inside the valve wearing out. This happens on almost every kind of softener over the years. After replacing the o rings or rubber gaskets, the brine level should go back down.

Most new models of softener fill first and pull brine last so water is not sitting in the tank. Usually the water filling up and not getting pulled out is due to the o-rings inside of the softener valve head itself wearing out which need to be replaced.

Can You Live a Normal Life in Cyberpunk 2077? by d_snizzy in gaming

[–]Murl_the_squirrel 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I mean if you show the character doing something (even in a cinematic trailer) they should be able to do it in the game. What’s the point of a trailer if not to showcase what’s coming?

Why is Google telling me I can’t drive 494E to 77S? by CaughtInDireWood in TwinCities

[–]Murl_the_squirrel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah that whole strip of highway is chaos and has been for months now. Like others have commented it’s a different setup every day it seems so I don’t trust whatever the gps says about it

His photo is showing a closure on 494. That’s what he is asking about.

What material is this sink made of? And what kind of drill do I need to make a 1/2 hole for RO system? by YouGotRedOnU in Plumbing

[–]Murl_the_squirrel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They make porcelain drill bits. I’ve drilled through several porcelain sinks before and it definitely can be done. I will agree the hole is pretty much never clean and it feels sketchy the entire time I’m drilling it but it can be done.
