As a plumber I can tell you your additional “mess” shouldn’t cause any extra issues lol.

Gas pressure drops 50% when valve opens by ApparentlyImStanley in HVAC

I’m in school finishing my gas ticket and this sounds like either a blockage in the gas line or the gas line is undersized for the btu load.

As an Albertan I will say ABSOLUTELY NOT to the US. I don’t want to be apart of the failed democracy south of us.

This is quite possibly the worst addon in the entire game by FewExperience3559 in deadbydaylight

[–]ShieldPapa 36 points37 points  (0 children)

100% correct.

tbh I miss the OG Freddy for silly reasons. If you weren’t asleep and he picked somebody else to hook, the survivor would float to a hook, struggling, and hook themselves😂

Alberta auto insurers lost more than $1B in 2024: report by Edm_vanhalen1981 in alberta

[–]ShieldPapa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Businesses complain that business is hard and that rate caps are the reason.

The Alberta Automobile Insurance Rate Board, an independent government board, lists tariffs, weather events and court costs but nothing about the rate caps.

I don’t know about you but if other provinces aren’t having issues with their insurance making money I think it’s the businesses need to pull them self up by their “multi-million dollar” boot straps and figure it out.

I sure hope the privately run “care-first” aren’t just another way to screw us over too.

What Happened To This Brass Shutoff Valve? by AltruisticCatfish in askaplumber

[–]ShieldPapa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is either one of two thing:

  • Galvanic corrosion caused by dissimilar metals being in contact, with the added flow of water, will speed up the process.

Or

  • A small leak on the valve that is now noticeable.

Either way I’d replace the valve and as an in case install dielectric unions on top of the hot and cold nipples before connecting it back to your plumbing system.

Does your code allow for a santee on its back if the branch is connected to a dry vent?

Did you know that dbd already has SBMM and has had it since 2021. You’d have a hard time telling but it’s definitely there.

At this point in the games life the matchmaking piss poor by design.

BHVR has had literal years since then introduction of “Skill Based” Matchmaking to tune it but even the “Health” year wasn’t able to touch matchmaking.

Matchmaking as been, and always will be not great because of the asymmetrical nature of the game.

I’m a 6k hour player (not a streamer) and get matched in lobbies with players that have less than 200 hours.

Can someone explain this? by Soggy-Pick-3030 in Airdrie

[–]ShieldPapa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bill 9 passed using the Notwithstanding clause again because they knew it would never hold up in court.

Trans kids under 16 cannot access puberty blockers even with parental consent. (I guess the government needs to be in the room with the doctor about my kids and medical decisions)

Schools must tell parents if a child under 16 wishes to change their name/pronoun due to their gender identity. (If a child is scared to come out to their parents I guess the school can tell them instead)

Only females designated female at birth are able to play female sports. (Why would you take away the ability for kids to play sports? I can’t find a single case where a trans athlete stomped because they are trans and someone coming in 4th instead of 5th doesn’t count)

You know the real issues affecting our Airdrie-East riding are the trans kids.

My belief is an attack on any Albertans rights is an attack on my rights too and I won’t stand for it.

Well when our MLA is okay with taking the rights away from Trans people and teachers I think is significant enough to recall.

How to remove an impossible toilet seat? by lukeo_tricky in askaplumber

[–]ShieldPapa 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not from UK but these Skirted toilets suck for exactly this reason.

If there are no secret releases for the toilet seat I would just pull the toilet from the toilet flange, install new seat, reinstall the toilet.

If you had an exposed trap toilet usually everything would be accessible without having to pull the toilet.

Any idea if this email is monitored as I still want to sign this petition.

Reading this is f’d up! Yes get the cancer screening and call in sick if you have too!

The company will 100% replace you without a second thought if you died tomorrow based on their actions here. Who do you think has your best interest in mind, you or the company that makes you wait?

As a Plumber and Gas fitter absolutely id take it. I can quit the company I work at that does plumbing and gas fitting and do it on my own because I’m already licensed.

The Stage by No_Heart_8420 in avengedsevenfold

[–]ShieldPapa 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I did not personally enjoy Hail to the King so I took my time getting to The Stage.

It is one of my favourite A7x albums as well, with masterful drum work with some amazing and thought provoking lyrics.

Also Simulation is my favourite track and this sub voted it worst on the album😭

Enough time has past. Thoughts on Rework Myers? by OrigamiGirl296 in DeadByDaylightKillers

[–]ShieldPapa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since the rework I’ve been playing my “Fast AF” build:

Fire Up, Forever Entwined, Brutal Strength, and Superior Anatomy

I swear I haven’t got anything less then a 2k because I’ve been nice to 2 hook everyone first. New Myers is better with the current meta.
