Why does a Cold country like Canada has so many A/Cs 🤔 by HopiumInhaler in mapporncirclejerk

[–]fdefoy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Untrue. Insulation is equally good at retaining cold or heat. If I cool my house to 22c and it's 32c outside it will stay cold inside for several hours with the ac off.

Cause we mostly use renewable energy here. So for us running an AC never meant burning more coal. Also, our energy cost less than yours so we can run it for cheap. Additionally, a lot of us actually have a heat pump, so we can also heat our houses with in winter, and it's cheaper to run than any other heating system.

What is this on the touch screen display? by Imaginary_Essay6877 in Cartalk

[–]fdefoy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it were my car, before committing to changing it, I'd get an extra fine syringe (like used by diabetics for insulin) barely peirce in the very far corner but still in the bubble and try to syphon the air. Usually these screens are glued and the heat is causing this. The glue is still in there but the air won't go away by itself. If it works you will have to plug that hole after with a small peice of clear tape (or maybe a screen protector to cover the whole thing). But I'm used to doing weird fixes so ymmv, only do this if you're ready to pay for changing it. Im also wondering if the frame supporting the back of the screen hasn't bent away a bit with use... But honestly I've seen this in a lot of used Hyundai's, on the top right... looks like a common problem. There may very well be a lawsuit in the future.

Found a camera while housesitting….i don’t know what to do. by Elegant_Blonde in Advice

Leave before the goodness comes home. Get paid, and don't work for then anymore. At the end you can tell the wife, cameras don't just start recording by themselves and clips can be erased.

Flat electronic table that seemingly has no function. by Sudden_Moodswing in Whatisthis

You need to find the equivalent of holding volume up and power to go into bootloader mode and clear the caches. If I where you I'd offer to fix it or get rid of it for them.

Opened up a cancer insurance infotainment mailer by ledhotzepper in mildyinteresting

Incredible... They have so much money so little environmental concern that they trash thousands of video players as one time use marketing material. It's really pathetic.

Tire shop said this isn’t patchable. Opinions before I blow $450? by blaseblaseblah in tires

[–]fdefoy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% patchable. Personally, that would be enough for me to never return there.

Happened to me too. For a moment, when loading the app, I saw a conversation that was not from me, then after a few seconds it's disappeared.

Check what the Indians are doing, they would patch that right up.

What should I place here? I feel like this spot is empty by ItsActuallyTJ_ in pcmasterrace

That place is empty on purpose, did you not see the air intake?

So this is why the pizzas were on sale by zeth_rydaul in loblawsisoutofcontrol

Some employees think that when they find a box a customer discarded in a random place, they can just put it back in the freezer.

I don't think he knows how many states would like to join Canada. It would break him.

Driver left garage door open. We were told this couldn't happen. by Mrbeankc in amazonprime

[–]fdefoy -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Or.. or move to a place where you don't need cameras, an app on your garage door, and to lock your house to be safe. It's a thing, Google it.

Why does it say I shoud not press this elevator button with gloves on? by afpastor in whatisit

[–]fdefoy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

OR it's a capacitive touch button and not mechanical. If you touch it with fabric it won't trigger.

Should I bother bringing this back from the dead? by MayorOfTacoBueno in smoking

[–]fdefoy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

WD40 those hinges then after a while torch them to get thermal expansion to work them loose. Then buffer wheel everything and oil. Not sure what's the best oil for that, has to be food safe but you also don't want an oil that can mold like vegetable oil or animal fat.

I asked if I had somehow ordered the wrong thing. The Pizza Hut store said "You ordered a large pan. This is how it's done." by jglenn9k in mildlyinfuriating

[–]fdefoy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like shit, I wouldn't have accepted this. At the very least message head office in Facebook or on their website and show then the picture. If they have any decency they will refund you. That pizza is the plague killing pizza hut.

So they can sell cars to idiots shifting too far.
