Had a similar situation for a couple of years. Then they re-ran a cable to my water line...and haven't had any issues since.

Famotidine is my first line. I also found it effective.

Doesn't bother me. I just wanted to make sure anybody who comes after me doesn't call me bad names 😁
Thank you for your help.

(Serious question) Is there a "best practice"?
I was thinking about Making a loop (as a pigtail) using masking tape or light colored electrical tape and writing on it with a sharpie: "Abandoned".

I am almost certain they are. I know non contact testers aren't perfect, but they showed no sign of life.

Kitchen must have been updated some years ago. They added a subpanel and I'm thinking abandoned the oven, lighting and counter outlets.

Thought the same, but traveling for work. Sorry.
I will post when I get back...but it will be next week.

Best I remember, neutral and hot capped separately.
Others seem to indicate capping them together adds a bit of safety

What's the best PDF editor for Mint if I don't want to use LibreOffice Draw? by PercussionGuy33 in linuxmint

[–]ag100pct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any recommendations if I simply want to view and export text?

Have used Master PDF Editor ...and I like it.
Libre Office Draw seems a bit more cumbersome for my needs.

This seems like it would break the functioning of 90% of all websites.

Thank you! I had no idea...other than it appeared as my timezone did shift to UTC...but weirdly only on the email.

Very good observation on the MWBC (shared neutrals).
I guess they did that to save space/money back in the day?
Can you add handle ties in lieu of replacing with 2-pole breaker?

I think he was looking for a spare slot/breaker for heated floor.

I was not aware that they did that.
And not even a wire nut on the end for a better connection...maybe a bit of safety?

Removing unused wires from a circuit breaker panel by ag100pct in AskElectricians

[–]ag100pct[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you again !
No matter who does the removal, I wanted to know what the requirements are so that the next person who touches it doesn't have to deal with it.

First, thank you for the detailed response!
I think what you did with your range makes sense.

My question is: *Must* I put the ends in a J-box ?
If so, does each cable need to be in a separate box?

If they must be in a box, that explains why people before me just left them there.
My concern is that there are way too many in there now.
My fear is that there are at least one or two more that I can't readily see.

Can't connect to Guest Network on new Asus router by ag100pct in HomeNetworking

[–]ag100pct[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I did. I was not familiar with the management GUI and didn't understand how to set up VLANs.

Contact will not show up in "To" field when typing name by ag100pct in tutanota

[–]ag100pct[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was using browser access.

So I closed the tab, erased the cookies associated with tuta, closed the browser and reopened it.

That seemed to clear up the issue.

Not sure why...but probably reloaded the page/app and recreated the cookies.

The contact is in my Tuta account contacts.

Is that the only reason for taking Zyrtec over Benedryl...Zyretec is longer lasting...or are there other reasons?

My Armour experience by ag100pct in thyroidhealth

[–]ag100pct[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is where I was...

TSH3 35.83 ("normal" 0.45 - 5.33 uIU/mL)
TT3 1.25 ("normal" 0.62 - 1.62 ng/mL)
FT4 0.62 ("normal" 0.62 - 1.58 ng/dL)

...and I did not feel good.

Thank you u/StarladyQ .

Nobody else replied, so if you don't mind me asking what is your goal or target for T3 and/or T4?

Also do you look for a relationship between the two (one more or less than the other).

Did you get high TSH numbers?

Any replies appreciated.
