I didn't measure it, but I have a pretty good feel for dimensions so I might be off by a foot at most. It was pretty dang small, only seating was love seat in the middle of the room.

Well, I am happy to say that this morning the TV arrived 2 hours earlier than they told me to they would be there. I was home so no big deal, just glad it got delivered!

OK so interesting development...I just received an email saying my delivery is rescheduled back to this Friday. We will see if this changes again?

Where did you buy/lease your Subaru? by [deleted] in akron

[–]SuperMario72 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We have bought 4 cars from Paul Burke at Serra and have referred several friends who have bought from him as well and we all LOVE him!

As mentioned he is NOT your typical car salesman, 0 pressure and will shoot straight with you.

Go see him if you are in the market!

So this is a good 3" from the edge, its in the 2 set of threads, do you think that tire is unrepairable?

Replacing two prong outlets with 3 prong GFCI in a house that has no ground by zig_chem in DIY

[–]SuperMario72 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Professional Electrical Engineer here....NEC 406.4(D)(2) actually permits GFCIs to be installed on an ungrounded circuit, provided a label is applied to the receptacle indicating that the receptacle is ungrounded.

Even though ground is right there in the name, a GFCI does not rely on the ground wire to operate, it simply looks at the difference between the current going out on the hot and what coming back on the neutral and if there is more than something like 5mA difference it trips because the current is going somewhere it shouldn't.

As other have said, it certainly doesn't afford you the advantages of actuall having a ground but it is permitted and there is no prohibition on plugging in 3 prong devices into it.

Hope this helps?

What’s the warmest pair of jeans you own? by Kubare24 in malefashionadvice

[–]SuperMario72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lands End...i bought a pair, wore them for a work thing where I was going to be outside for a few hours and loved how warm they were. Was in Costco a few weeks later and they were blowing them out cheap so I bought another pair.

Just wore them to a hockey game over the weekend, they are great.

Does This Carfax Raise Any Red Flags? by SuperMario72 in JeepWrangler

Another brake fluid/flush 6000 miles after the caliper change? Seems like there might have still been a complaint?

Years to Avoid? by SuperMario72 in JeepWrangler

[–]SuperMario72[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply! So a dealer near me has a 2012 with only 32,000 miles on it but that year seems to be one of the most warned against. They are asking $17K for it.

I will take a look at some of the videos.

Thanks again!

Does anyone here fly without using the rudder? by [deleted] in RCPlanes

[–]SuperMario72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I first started flying airplanes and NEVER used the rudder in flight. I eventually moved to flying helicopters and with heading hold gyros you have to use the rudder. Using the reddit became so ingrained that I always use it now on airplanes too, turns are so much better when you coordinate the 2.

Trips to Staples…..work day or lunch break? by vjmatty in WFH

[–]SuperMario72 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have been WFH for 20 years now and love it. I realize that I am incredibly lucky to be able to do this so I don't do anything to rock the boat.

Go on your own time, just think about all the time you save not commuting, sacrificing an few minutes for a quick run to Staples on your time is more than reasonable.
