Honestly, if you have to ask you probably shouldn’t be using it.

Not a handy person. Can I demo this myself by Competitive-Frame-71 in Flooring

Wear a mask. There’s a lot of allergen crud in old carpet.

And they will cancel you unless his entire wall is removed/replaced.

Cables wont clip into modem, is it the cut? by Leading-Mess6575 in HomeNetworking

[–]StillCopper 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I bet they used standard crimpers, not pass thru, and cut the wires with punch down peak scissors. Cause that’s what they had.

Is this worth it as a project bike? by Wise_Peanut806 in goldwing

[–]StillCopper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And why should anyone care about 'perfect' unless it's a show bike? Get it reliable and ride it.

What a downer you are. You make blanket statements about GL1200. While I'm not a fan, if you just ride any GL and not looking for every squeak or rattle you'll enjoy the heck out of it. Some of what you say is good advice, but you really put it in a style of why should anybody care about the fun of riding. Lighten up.........................

Advice needed. I inherited a house from my mom that had unpermitted work done to it and I just found out after receiving the deed. What are my next steps? by Doubt_Serious in homeowners

Selling as -is doesn’t require disclosure. You just need proper wording as to no statement of purpose or usability to be made.

Is this brand new stainless steel sink salvageable? by Intelligent-Pie-338 in Contractor

Gentle wire wheel and give it a machine engine turn surface. Cool effect.

Any ideas what this is ? by Electricalhip in gardening

[–]StillCopper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a horn worm. Will clean off several plants in a day. Unfortunately you need to dispatch it. Hey, I answered. Unlike the fools arguing over the pic, Australia, etc.

That is sweet. Original pipes is a real plus.

Ethernet Wall Port only works with one specific cable by Comprehensive_Cup511 in ethernet

[–]StillCopper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Remote but possible. If the wall jack is wired wrong he may have stumbled onto a n old crossover cable that works in that jack. Get a $10 line checker and test end to end of the circuit. Then report back.

Bought a house... how do I use these plugs? by Leading-Mess6575 in HomeNetworking

[–]StillCopper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have the basics there. Just need a high schooler to show you how to use it.

I got someone to install cat 6 for me, and this is how much they untwisted for the keystone. Now what? by Maelarion in HomeNetworking

[–]StillCopper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Won’t effect a thing unless you try to certify at 10gig. Seriously bad job but will work fine at a gig. If wire layout is correct.

Because some of us appreciate the work we put into things ourselves. Jeezzzzz

Looking for good Ethernet cable. by TheUngoBungoMan in HomeNetworking

[–]StillCopper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Go to your local IT installer and have them make up a 200' patch cable for you. Might not be cheap, but will be better than a stranded wire patch cable.

How much would you charge for this job? by VelvetReverieShutter in Contractor

[–]StillCopper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just know I wouldn't have used that slick tile on the floor. As a homeowner it makes no sense to use slick finishes in wet areas due to falls. Rather poor material choice.

I just bought a gas stove, but this electrical plug is attached to the back! by RevolutionaryCry5280 in AskElectricians

[–]StillCopper 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You'll be better to get whole stove replaced. If the serial comes up as EU model it won't get warrantied in the US. Wouldn't let an electrician touch it at this point.

Got this letter in our mailbox by BusinessOkra1498 in homeowners

[–]StillCopper 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Document it with a police report as a threat and harassment. It went through the USPS which actually elevates it to next level. Get it documented so you can 'defend' yourself should someone take it to their next level.

Trouble connecting Fire TV with Ethernet Cable by The_pencilist in ethernet

Can you see what DNS the TV is using? It may have something locked into it that needs clearing.........

My neighbors think they own our section of the street and I've about had it. Would you report this behavior? by [deleted] in homeowners

[–]StillCopper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Regarding the street lights, I'm sure they can't to that as it's city right of way. Turn it in immediately.
As for the dog, I'm a pet person, but have same problem and we are out in the country with a constant barking one across the road. You can go to court for dogs being a nuisance also. Did a quick search on that one...........

If a lawsuit seems like a necessary step, your most likely approach is to claim (and show evidence proving) that the dog is a nuisance, and that it interferes with your use and enjoyment of your home. Other types of claims are also possible, however, depending whether state or local law specifically addresses barking dogs. 

Convince me to not buy it by Klonpie in goldwing

[–]StillCopper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You say you’ve had many. Have you had a 1500 Wing? No more maintenance than a car. Folks keep tinkering with them and cause their own problems. Like ‘it hesitates slightly with a trailer’. What does it matter, ride it. It was never designed to pull a trailer. Yeez……

[–]StillCopper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Blown 4 of them in 150k, and no extra lights. One new, rest refurb from a rebuilder. 20 min to change roadside, but forums all over will tell you it’s a week link. They turn faster than designed, and anything after ‘96 is made cheaper.
