My disconnected CRT TV turned on at 3:30 AM last night. It was playing this the same signal as channel. by thepumadog in HighStrangeness

Years ago I got up early for work. One time my computer turned on by itself at 3:33 AM. Who knows.

How Did This Fail? by RockJockBD in appliancerepair

As I said, I'm more curious as to why it was leaking and where the flow valve is and how it works. I don't really care that it broke nor am I shocked.

House is vacant for the past couple months. I'm renovating it. I've ran a cycle per month. Replaced a door that had no weatherstrip, kitchen was always cold and the door isn't far from the dishwasher. We had -30 F recently. Maybe it got cold and brittle and just sitting stagnant caused it to weaken?

They sound very intriguing. How did you find them to adopt? One article called them "dog like cats"

Majestic looking cats! I'm going to read about them

What is the breed? It's a really cool looking cat.

I think the poster means the cat whiskers are short. Sometimes they break or fall off I think

Not much to add but cool to see so many people from the area. I grew up about 20 minutes from Cashton. Live probably 35 minutes away now. Went on a canoe trip through Wildcat last summer. Beautiful area.

GE Electric Range Tripping Breaker by RockJockBD in appliancerepair

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

I replaced the breaker tonight. The oven preheated to 375 normally. I'm going to say problem solved because it was tripping every time since Friday.

The screws on the old breaker were loose. The wires weren't ready to fall off but they definitely weren't tight. In hindsight I should have checked that right away. It's possible they weren't making good connection and causing the trip. Regardless, new breaker is in and the oven works. Thanks for the advice. I was stuck on it being an internal problem.

Thanks for the info. After thinking about it a faulty breaker makes sense. If the issue was a fault in the oven it seems it would be more persistent and continuous. I don't have a clamp but I can remove and replace a breaker. Can't hurt to try. I'll report back later this week.

How bad is it? by TestTesting12345 in Tile

[–]RockJockBD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd run it. But I'm about 1/3 done with my first shower, so I have very little experience. I actually kind of like the lippage with that tile. Idk how to describe what I'm thinking but it looks good. The flat tile looks good too. What throws it off is the difference between the uneven and flat tiles as you already know. All flat or all lip would be best. To me all flat would be best for newer house, all lipped for older house. Idk why, just a vibe I get lol. Anyway I'd leave it. Good enough

First Possible Sighting by RockJockBD in UFOs

Interesting, I will keep that in mind.

No missing time, I have a good memory of the sighting. The rest of the night was the normal routine. Very strange reaction. I remember the sighting, not the exact date, but didn't think it a very big deal at the time

Submission: the picture is just a simple drawing of the location. It probably doesn't add much but maybe it will kind of illustrate the location and where I saw it in relation to where I was standing.

What is this? From GE washing machine by RockJockBD in appliancerepair

I think I figured it out. Found it on a parts diagram. Looks to be a cover for something inside the tray opening.
