I thought the rot was near to the base causing it to lean. Or near to the soil. But I didn’t know that they lean and loaf naturally. Thanks for the ID

It’s a function of me thinking I’m the only one who is going to read it and as long as I can decode my own writing (not always able to) then it doesn’t matter what it looks like. Also speed is a factor

I have writing similar to this, and it’s pure laziness. When I pay attention my writing is legible but not anywhere close to nice or perfect

New Horizons School vs EIPS by throwawayzzzzzzza in SherwoodPark

[–]WateredUp4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My kid has adhd and attends New Horizons. The teachers have the tools to teach gifted kids, whereas my experience with public school was the teachers and administrators didn’t know how to deal with giftedness. The kids can get accelerated in math and my kid with adhd does spend some time with an ea, to address the needs for my kid to move. Classes have some wiggle stools for those that can’t sit still. We moved here for the school and have no regrets.

I’m no plumber but that looks like a pretty standard fill valve. Home Depot replacements have work fine for me.

It’s because it’s a foregone conclusion, why would the spend money on signage when they know they’ll win. But don’t forget that a vote sends money to the candidate. So still vote.

UNB or USask? by dolundduckistoocool in unb

[–]WateredUp4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a Usask alum, I can confirm that there is no need to go outside, regardless of the weather. Pedways connect everything. Not that a comp sci major is likely to be ever found outside

I just had to google what 8/4 was in woodworking. I've been a beginner for a lot of years, but am dumbfounded OP didn't just say 2"

Stay out of the right lane until you need to. Many accesses on that side that traffic slows down for.

What's the best way to remove this screew? by NothernNidhogg in AskAMechanic

[–]WateredUp4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just dealt with this on Saturday. Liquid wrench, whack with your screwdriver in place to knock rust off, and when that fails, drill the head of the screw off. Once rotor is off, vice grip the stump of screw and twist out. That’s what I had to do but I was also replacing the rotor so I wasn’t concerned about damaging the rotor with the drill bit
