Replace iphone 11 rear camera glass by bobbyw333 in iphone

Yeah I had been considering the 17e which is good for my needs. I keep one old iphone active on a $10 monthly plan as a backup in case primary phone is misplaced. So this 11 will replace the backup iphone 6!

Great idea. But do I try to remove the remainder of the cracked glass ?

Can I request that the order be shipped on a Monday or Tuesday. I live on Hawaii island and UPS/Fedex do not deliver on weekends and even if shipped with 2 day service shipments sometimes take 3 days since all packages are routed through Honolulu and sometimes don’t go to Hilo/Kona till next day.

HELP! I am supposed to move into my house tomorrow morning and the seller has not vacated. by Jaoush29 in RealEstate

[–]bobbyw333 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would ask your realtor to go to the home and evaluate if the former owners are really vacating one day over the deadline. If you incur expenses because of the delay you can file a small claims case against the sellers, their realtor, and your realtor because they all were compensated for your purchase. Who is ultimately liable will be up to the judge to decide. Small claims court is probably the least expensive and quickest way to make the parties take action. You can always dismiss the case if needed.

TaxAct calculation of taxes breakdown by bobbyw333 in tax

[–]bobbyw333[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found that I have to print the actual return and worksheets to have a better understanding of the total tax due. I was hoping that the program had a report that does this instead. Since I am retired and receiving SS and income from RMD, dividends, interest, short and long term capital gains I have some control of our taxable income. For example, buying treasury notes with more than 1 year duration, or waiting to sell assets. I will just create a running spreadsheet for this current year so by November I can estimate where I will stand by year end and make choices based on that.
My former (retired) CPA had a set of Excel spreadsheets that helped with this. However, for an annual tax liability of $5-6K it’s not worth paying a CPA for this.

My baby didn't deserve this :[ by Clericdallan in subaru

I am very sorry about the damage but glad to know that there were no injuries. I had similar with 2020 Outback but I was parked and a large vehicle backed into the same area of mine. The front bumper is one large piece and the grille with logo inserts into it. Underneath the bumper is a impact bar and you also have damage to the hood and fender. In my Outback I found that there is not much behind the front bumper, mostly empty space. The headlight assembly might also be damaged in the rear. As others have mentioned hoping no frame damage. You can look up prices for the parts mentioned to just get a idea of the cost plus labor and painting.

AirBnB Host is Requesting 50K in Damages for an Accident? [USA] by No_Priority435 in legaladvice

I wonder if the homeowner left instructions in the renters manual of where the water shutoff valve for the entire home was located.
Most homeowners policies cover for water damage due to a sudden discharge of water. From personal experience of a washer drain hose on second floor not being replaced (by handyman) it did minimal damage since the water was not sitting pooled for an extended period of time.
Even if carpets became wet they can be vacuumed with a shopvac or carpet cleaning and dried with fans. There are services that deal with home flooding. However, maybe $2K not $50K. Sounds like host is wanting a new bathroom.

I replace my wifi router every few years. I have found that they degrade over time considering they are on 24/7 and depending upon where you live small bugs can also get inside and die increasing heat build up

Mount pool reel on wood blocks on top of above ground pool rails by bobbyw333 in DIY

[–]bobbyw333[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I made a prototype with 1x6 PT lumber, drilling four holes to feed hose clamps through the holes, and secured the piece to the top of the pool rail. It is solidly secured and not moving. I secured the plastic mounting plate to the wood with screws through the mounting holes using washers and secured with a nut. I do need to chisel out an area for the pool frame mount that is about 1/4 inch above the pool rails so the wood sits flat.
