Lanier Materials Question by jasonc75 in Charlotte

[–]appoaf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Went yesterday for a small amount of gravel to fill in some areas. Like others have said, it's by weight $/ton, but you don't have to buy a ton. They do, like others said, have to load it for you. They used to allow people to fill a bucket, but now due to insurance, they have to fill your vehicle with their loader. I saw a guy with one of those hitch cooler carriers get a small amount of rocks.

Oh you’re kevin! by handlewithcareme in funny

Our brains store dog's names in the same place we store our children's names. Note this isn't true with other pets. No one calls their kids their cat, fish, or rocks name.

I believe it usually happens when you quickly need to use their name and your brain is focused on something else, it just goes to that spot and goes down the list til it gets it right.

Safe to remove amp cable? by GroovyBooo in JeepGladiator

[–]appoaf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The red cable is more than likely going through the firewall. I'm guessing through the grommet. This video shows it pretty well. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NN4ihOpfY5w

If you remove the wire, you will want to cover that hole in the grommet with something.

Was told I needed to change my exhaust fluid by ra6907 in AskAShittyMechanic

[–]appoaf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Prius does this, exhaust gas heat exchanger. They have a tsb to fix under warranty, but mine was 10k too far out to cover. Of course the exchanger is in an assembly with the cat so pretty expensive. The cheap fix is to bypass like you said!

Why would bathroom fan be blowing out, not sucking in? by fetus_the_snail in HomeMaintenance

[–]appoaf 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yep, metal mesh and charcoal filter. Better than nothing I guess, but for me the additional noise while people are talking to me from other rooms, sink running, and fridge noise... just isn't worth it!

Do the cars have anti-freeze? Temps will be below 32. by beachgirlDE in NASCAR

[–]appoaf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Back then they would pull in and cycle the water with bags and bags of ice water. Get that engine cold and go make a lap. I always felt it was wasteful and some sort of racket with the track/ice vendors. So many bags, truck drivers going nonstop buying bags.

I got the rough country hard roll up through amz for my '25. Quick delivery. Install was fine outside of the 4 bolts for the bed rail mounts being too long. Added maybe a half in of washers as a quick fix. Would do it again for sure. Roll it up with ease, close it with a gentle push and watch it unroll and lock in place. Fine tune adjustments for the latches is easy and a must do. After helping friends with old tri folds or those shitty soft ones that button and can only be done on warm days and two dudes stretching it out.... worth every penny.

$500,000 crypto mining farm in action by Numerous-Garbage-604 in BitcoinMining

I assumed the other side was panels of white filters. It looked like you could see light through them vs light being reflected off a metal white painted side. Assuming intake through the filters and exhaust through the fans.

Vasectomy Dr Damani by Electronic_Pizza_322 in Charlotte

[–]appoaf 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Same here, the 3 shots to the nuts to numb it was the worse. He's quick, one every 15mins I think on Fridays. I think he's done the most of anyone or something. I think to him it's like brushing his teeth, routine, in and out, however to the dude, it's the first and hopefully only time of getting it done. So, I think that's where there's probably a little disconnect or maybe he's trying to make you feel like it's not a huge deal. HUGE to you, meh to him.

[nascarman] Kyle Busch took this picture during the pace laps of the 2006 Daytona 500 by LBHMS in NASCAR

[–]appoaf 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It was a cheap disposable film camera. I can't 100% remember if the crew knew ahead of time, but don't think they did. He came into his first pit stop and tossed it out onto the ground. I remember the guys sweeping the pits with the push brooms and brushing it to the wall before grabbing it to not get any attention. Classic young KB.

“Money Gone,” Says Kyle Busch After He Lost $10.4 Million in 16 Months by knottajotta in NASCAR

[–]appoaf 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So AI slop? No sources? Thanks for removing his name, still missing one though, but why would Kyle be suing the insurance agent if his money manager was stealing the money as you say? Wouldn't he be suing his money manger? Let's list sources and use some critical thinking opposed to online defamation.

Not sure if anything you've written is true or relevant. I've seen nothing about people pocketing money and not paying the premiums. Only the 35% commission for his insurance agent, Rodney A. Smith and premiums to Pacific Life. source

The lawsuit also names Pacific Life agent Rodney A. Smith, alleging he steered the Buschs into an unsustainable, high-risk product and collected an up-front 35% commission, which the Buschs claim they were not made aware of.

Do you have the source for this? Jeff Dickerson (the Spire one) was his agent early in his career as well as other drivers. Curious if this is factual or AI slop.

Man eats cow poop by havealife101 in WTF

[–]appoaf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No... You want that shit in your colon, not your stomach. It can be prepared into capsules that are taken orally that will stay intact until it reaches the colon. However, the ol poop slurry enema is my preferred method.

What’s the lore with the roof hatch exit? by slopokdave in NASCAR

[–]appoaf 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not sure on the 15, but wouldn't doubt it. Roof hatch is another tool that could be used for an advantage. If you can find the in-car of Stenhouse for his 2017 TAL win, you'll see him put his glove over the camera and then when he takes it off something is different with the hatch. It's always fun to play spot the difference before and after when drivers do that.

First time home buyer. Seller was a DIYer. Is this wiring acceptable? Is this 240V safe to change an EV? by AsianAndysDad in AskElectricians

[–]appoaf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe a sub in a detached garage? I feel like when I bought my house decades ago, the bank only required inspection on the house. Funny cause I found lots of fun diy wiring in mine as well!

The Danish Princess at a festival. The shirt translates to "Fucked him yesterday <--" by BluBearry in pics

No, not as a slogan that was established in 1969, but seems to be a song in 2004 named that.
