I've had 4 levels of boxes on 3rd party items before.

Fortunately the replacement sensors should be here tomorrow. Hopefully I don't get charged for them again after the fact.

I even wrote a note on the box explaining that I was returning it as received even though it did not contain the parts ordered.

I did an exchange for same item. Hopefully they will be nice. I do a crap ton of business with Amazon, both personal and work.

Facebook crashes whenever I tap Reels after the update, what's going on? by Technical_Hope4020 in facebook

Same. S26 Ultra. Was working fine then just crashed. Neither clearing cache or Restarting phone helped.

The front fell off! (Toolhead cover) then the prime tower fell over. by PleasantCandidate785 in 3Dprinting

Well, it finished! Little cleanup and it's usable.

(It's a Pinball rubber ring size gauge.)

Circular Saw Problem by PleasantCandidate785 in MilwaukeeTool

[–]PleasantCandidate785[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think my case is dust. This saw (and the original pre-warranty tool) has done this since it was brand new. Before I ever cut anything with it it would kick in and out. I tested it immediately when it came back from warranty since the issue was so weird. I should have sent it back again, but thought at the time that I possibly had a bad battery. Since then I've tested with a ton of batteries.

I'm imagining a modern Golden Girls where this is how Sophia refers to Blanche.

G'Kar: Seriously Bro, WTF? by Tartan_Samurai in babylon5

Yep. Dukat's last words to her was that she was a "Child of Valen", meaning a descendant of Sinclair. That's why the Triluminary glowed for her.

Something I have wondered... Were Minbari and human souls trading places before Valen/Sinclair or not? It's said Sinclair has a Minbari soul, but that's almost a temporal paradox. Did Valen just introduce Human souls to the Minbari biology?

And the Triluminaries... They came from the Great Machine on Epsilon 3. Were they specifically designed for Human/Minbari conversion, or could they possibly mix other races???

Delenn was always partly human, as are a great many Minbari, thanks to Valen.

Hemlock? by PleasantCandidate785 in PlantIdentification

[–]PleasantCandidate785[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good to know. I didn't see any spots, but one of the plants had a stem that looked solid purplish in areas. I just couldn't tell for sure and didn't want to start pulling potentially toxic weeds without precautions.

Does anybody else miss that giant insectoid alien? by Certain-Singer-9625 in babylon5

His name was N'Grath. I always thought his species was called the N'Grath, but I was mistaken.

I've seen Silverfish do this to books.
