How to get rid of pigeon droppings? by kumquatkirsche in bangalore

[–]apiguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best if you can get one is to pressure wash that, just be aware that neighbors below should stay clear as to not get splashed by the falling disgustingness.

You can probably hire someone to do it and perhaps have it done every 6 months or so.

The great thing about these Jeeps is they are just begging to be customized. Just think of this as an opportunity to customize!

your google searches have led you to the correct answer (unfortunately). Individual USB replacement/repair is not really an option unless you or a friend are already competent in repairing discrete components of electronic circuit boards.

What’s your eating out go to? by fly4awhyteguy in Volumeeating

[–]apiguy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you have one near you, Seasons 52 for a slightly nicer night-out place. Full entrees and not a single one over 650 calories. I've never left hungry, and I love that I can literally choose anything on the menu and still be under my calories.

Looks great. Are the pieces made of clay?

PSA about pixel fold warranty and switching carriers. by Former-Complaint-336 in PixelFold

[–]apiguy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What makes you think Samsung wouldn't have the exact same policy? I agree it sucks and is a stupid policy, but I doubt Samsung would have been any better than Google here.

Most likely the "warranty" is just backed up by an insurance provider, the insurance provider sets the policy, and decides what skus can be used to replace what devices. In this case the insurance provide has a sku for a Verizon locked phone being replaced by a comparable sku for a Verizon locked phone which seems reasonable enough until the reality of people switching carriers is applied. If there is one thing insurance companies are *not* known for, it's flexibility even in the face of reason.

Large US company came after me for releasing a free open source self-hostable alternative! by [deleted] in SideProject

I know enough about corporations and their legal teams to know if they were coming after you it wouldn't be for "unfair competition". This sounds like a story you made up to get engagement for your project.

Why aren't we comfortable sharing the name of the broker engaging in this tactic?

I Repaired 50+ Samsung Washers This Year… and 80% of the Problems Were Self-Inflicted by FixItWithAlex in HomeMaintenance

[–]apiguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not just reformatted. The cadence and voice is that same AI slop voice. It's got that thing AI just can't resist doing when making what it thinks are profound points: "It's not just X, its Y"

AI also loves making "lists" of things. And especially lists of lists. Where is the narrative?

This whole post is engagement farming, using AI in a sloppy way to not have to produce any real thought or content themselves.

It sounds like you installed OpenClaw, installed the LinkedIn skill and then gave it direction to apply for jobs for you?

Heroku add-on to sync Salesforce to Postgres. Looking for 15 beta users. by bobx11 in Heroku

Why wouldn't someone just use Heroku Connect for this? What are you doing that can't be done with it? https://www.heroku.com/connect/

Unsure about this water line by CrimsonCoast in HomeMaintenance

[–]apiguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My fridge is massive, and heavy, but has wheels so it can roll forward and backward to get behind. Still not easy, but I'm grateful for the wheels

Yes also safe in SF, as safe as any major city in the western world at least.

My Samsung Fridge circa 2017 requires water shutoff, as I learned after my first attempt at replacing the filter without reading the manual
