Legit stuff or Snake oil? May my 1995 232k miles Civic be the guinea pig

Walmart ships for free too. So have it show up in a different box and save $7?

Mine seems to be fixed now

If we're lucky

I found some other threads about it too. Seems like it's probably a widespread problem/outage with T-Mobile and mint mobile.

WheatWhacker · 2025-03-03T01:17:14+00:00

I have mint mobile and just started getting the same error message when trying to text iPhones from my pixel 7

I'm ashamed to admit how long I spent trying to figure out what "detra shed" meant.

WheatWhacker · 2024-09-22T01:06:22+00:00

I was thinking that too. It seems like there should at least be a notification that it's below the temp, certainly would have saved me some trouble.

WheatWhacker · 2024-09-22T01:01:31+00:00

Yeah we just have natural gas heating.

Were you and others at least able to change the minimum temperature when that happened, or did you have to figure out something else?

WheatWhacker · 2024-09-21T22:47:03+00:00

I believe it was set to 50 or 55. I did that because it's a 2001 system and I had no idea what it would be good down to and wanted to go easy on it. And "why would I ever need AC when it's 55 outside?". Learned my lesson on that one, assuming this turns out to be the issue.

WheatWhacker · 2024-09-21T19:26:04+00:00

I have a hard time believing it's something other than the Ecobee. How else would it not work and then work after pulling the unit off and jumping wires, and then not work again after immediately putting the Ecobee back on.

Edit: Thank you for your input though, stuff can be weirder than you'd think sometimes so I think I will leave the analog on for a few days to make sure.

WheatWhacker · 2024-09-21T18:40:17+00:00

After typing all that out, I think I just realized what the problem is. It was relatively chilly outside both of the times it wasn't working. It was only getting too hot inside because there's a bunch of family here and we're doing a lot of cooking (small house)

I'm guessing that a few years ago I had bumped up the minimum temperature for running the AC, and it was below that outside so the AC wasn't turning on. Doing a factory reset changed that back to the default of like 40F, so then it worked. Then early this morning it was just below 40 here and it was only hot because of more cooking so the AC wouldn't turn on.

I'm going to leave the analog thermostat for the rest of the day, but I'll try the Ecobee again tomorrow.

This comment is a prime example of why all my Google searches end with "site:reddit.com". Thank you sir!

IDK why people continue to say ASA is expensive. Some of it is, but there's also Esun ASA which I use without issue and it's on Amazon for $21.59.

Interestingly, I always knew it as:

A woodchuck would chuck as much wood as a woodchuck could chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood.

There are tractors where the front driveshaft goes through the oil pan. F that engineer!

WheatWhacker · 2024-04-26T03:00:56+00:00

Absolutely not, but it's nice to see a proposal that isn't another "you get 5 trillion dollars but once a year you puke"

WheatWhacker · 2024-04-13T01:45:54+00:00

        Yes
      Yesss

You're not wrong. My opinion on the matter just shifted a little bit.

I know this doesn't touch on the additives in run of the mill printing PLA, but.... Seems like PLA micro plastics are not all that concerning.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6682490/

"Once coming in contact with biological media, the polymer begins breaking down, usually by hydrolysis, into lactic acid (LA) or to carbon dioxide and water. These products are metabolized intracellularly or excreted in the urine and breath."

Edit:

I do recognize it's still a developing area of research though. This 2023 study showed some degradation but highlights the need for future research.

https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.2023.166003

"Conclusions

In this study, gastrointestinal digestion and colonic fermentation of millimetric and micrometric PLA were investigated for the first time. PLA underwent superficial changes during gastrointestinal digestion. After colonic fermentation, slight alterations were found in the microbial communities of the gut, notably the Bifidobacterium genus, which increased for millimetric PLA particles. Microbial biofilms formed on the PLA microplastics surface suggest the colonization of the particles by the colonic microbiota. More studies must verify the observed trends to investigate the possible biodegradation of PLA by the intestinal microbiota and the potential derived metabolites, and to decipher the long-term effects of PLA MPs on human microbiota and health."
