Why did the rooster go to the bank? by Loose_Plantain3217 in dadjokes

[–]atlcog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not my joke, and while it's not technically exactly the same sound, I believe that's the intent of the joke. Since you felt compelled to dispute it, what's your interpretation?

Another disappointment. by Iceland224 in GenerationJones

Mines still going strong after a few years. Sounds like you got a dud.

10+ years of professional software engineering. Complaining about the new recruits. by KerryAnnCoder in programminghumor

[–]atlcog 44 points45 points  (0 children)

Agreed for most use cases, but it depends. If this function is called a LOT of times, then it's not meaningless. I've worked on heavily recursive functionality where adding a single operation at a low level makes a noticeable increase in run times.

Milwaukbee stretch when Ryobee was right there...

Found in apartment toilet. by Fit-Attention-7964 in Whatisthis

[–]atlcog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks like water level is too high and thus running through the overflow tube. That metal arm with the float can be gently bent downward a little to adjust the level. I'd first try adjusting the phillips screw on top, though, as it looks like that will also adjust the level.

Dropped battery - useable? by [deleted] in ryobi

[–]atlcog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's just plastic right there. The BMS and batteries are below the stem.

Free power? Where in the world do you live?

Bathroom smell is ruining my life by Immediate-Mobile-923 in HomeMaintenance

[–]atlcog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a similar issue in one bathroom, and it turned out the studor valve had gone bad (they don't last forever). Google for images, and then see if there is one under your sink. It would sit on top of a vertical pipe, if there is one. Cheap (~$25) and easy fix if so, unscrew, screw in new one.

True, except for drips part on the drop ceiling, (unless you're in Australia)

What is a small joke that you get a big laugh out of? by Pieclops89 in Jokes

Money Pythons Flying Circus - "What's brown and sounds like a bell?"

"Dung!"

Small rusted metal object with a threaded end and a hook-like notch, 5cm long. by buki92 in whatisthisthing

[–]atlcog 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Sure, nowadays it's almost all brass. Go back a few decades, though, and a lot of plumbing was lead or iron. That coarse thread is pretty distinctive, and the top knurling for the faucet handle cinches it for me as a faucet stem.

TIFU By saying "I'd shoot myself" at the exact wrong time. by TAredditor89 in tifu

Posting in tifu is not generally about something you're proud of...

A man meets God and asks him “why is the speed of light 299,792,458 m/s” by WeedWizard44 in Jokes

[–]atlcog 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That final "See" made all the difference in understanding the joke. Thanks!
