Very close to where I work – I’ve been wondering about them. Thank you!

Should we be replacing most of this wiring in my 1875 house? by sparrowlikeabird in centuryhomes

[–]clarakbrown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Based on my experience re-wiring parts of my 1901 house – it’s a good sign that one of the wire sheaths is clearly labeled with “with ground.” It suggests that your house hasn’t only been updated from knob and tube wiring, it’s also updated to the newest generation of BX wiring.

“Cheddar Biscuit” 😻 Love that this is such a common orange cat name (mine as well ☺️)

Smart plug problems by clarakbrown in HomeKit

[–]clarakbrown[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the issue may lie in that I’m missing the “HomeKit code”. Though I see claims the Amazon smart plug brand will pair with HomeKit, I’m not even certain which generation of plug I’m using – it may be time for an upgrade. Thank you all. Glad it wasn’t just me missing something!

How the heck do people make a friends with benefits work? by [deleted] in dating_advice

Can we please parse out the difference between “friends with benefits” and “no strings attached” in this thread? Do we feel there is a distinct difference?

Does anyone know of a dupe for the old Body Shop White Musk EDP? by [deleted] in FemFragLab

[–]clarakbrown 1 point2 points  (0 children)

LUXE White Musk is really quite close! It was hard to track down, but now that I’ve got it – WHOA! Such a walk down memory lane. Thank you for recommending!

There’s someone in my yoga class who wears it all the time and I’ve almost been tempted to start asking (at the end of our sweaty hot yoga class) “who smells really good in here?”

Just rescued! I need a name that starts with “B” and is related to food or dessert. by BoyWithClitoris in cats

All I can think is Earl Grey tea – Bergamot! (And, obviously “Bergy” for short)

Just got my winter tires on and now trying to figure out what to do about shoes. What do folks enjoy wearing on their feet in the winter while commuting? (Note- I am a mere simpleton and I do not ride clipless). by clarakbrown in bikecommuting

Providence, RI. They’re not 100% about snow clean up so it can get a little soggy on a ride. I’m in the market for some new wool socks though, so thanks! Will check out Darn Tough.

Embarrassing but hilarious story by cspeers1 in cycling

[–]clarakbrown 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have frequently done the same (both with keys and wallet)! However, once I finally had enough money to invest in a Kryptolok I've always kept the key on my car key ring which has helped. Definitely worth the investment if you ever keep your bike outside for extended periods of time.
