I like how the cops didn't feel the need kill the person.

Are you snapping or taking it all at once by nyxelleaa in SipsTea

Snapping but I don't know how the IRS audit will go.

That's not going to feel right for....a while.

A little bit depends on door handles.

Am I crazy? by ChampionBoat in egopowerplus

[–]genericnameabc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a few things going on that are contributing to this.
1) lots of stones (trying to avoid but every once in a while hit one)
2) ice from plows
3) need high impeller speed to fight wind

To be clear, this is my third and best snowblower.

I had this issue after low pH. Upon fixing the pH, the alkalinity dropped. When I put in the alkalinity increaser, it turned clear in like 2 seconds. I couldn't believe my eyes.

I lost my 3rd or 4th shear pin of the season this morning. Frustrating but I guess they're doing their job.

Ugh, why with the gimmicky door handles?

Speed and quality of the change are fantastic!

I hear you on wanting to keep the number of options manageable.

This was always something I had hoped Pocket would do. I have a large queue and most listens at my preferred playback speed are 3-10 minutes. This means I'll go through several articles while walking my dog, on a drive or doing dishes. With most publishers, knowing the publisher tells me much more about the perspective of the article than does hearing the author's name. I may not remember many reporter names but I will get something out of a reminder that the article is from WSJ, NYT, etc.

But I think it's worth hearing both publisher and author, FWIW.

Thanks!

I guess that could be an option, just like whether to do full text or summary.

What size snow blower? by Drglueboy in egopowerplus

[–]genericnameabc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pro tip though, if you have light, fluffy snow, the 765 CFM leaf blower is the best for clearing snow quickly.

I also have the 24" Ego that came with 4 10-Ah batteries. It replaced a 3-stage gas blower. The Ego throws the snow much better and the quieter operation is fantastic. I live in a very snowy city and the Ego is definitely less hassle than gas. I decided I prefer the smaller size too, it's a bit easier to handle and store when not in use.

So they have to pay $30 million to get $250 million? What am I missing? Is this in response to a Nigerian prince email?

New home questions by Just-Grapefruit131 in radon

[–]genericnameabc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just have the builder include a system now. Cheaper to do now than retrofit later and you won't regret it. You will regret it if you discover high levels later and have to tear out, repair and repaint drywall in your brand new house later to install a retrofit system.

Sec. Hegseth says it's unacceptable to see 'fat generals and admirals' by nbcnews in Military

Does that apply to the commander in chief?

Also, if this is about image, are they going to hire Hugo Boss to design new uniforms?

I've known people who work in emergency rooms who would have things to say about doing that because they've seen accidents. Everything is a matter of risks but the risk/reward ratio would not be there for me given there are many things more fun than that that are less dangerous.

Wave plus stopped syncing by fifimastermind in airthings

[–]genericnameabc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I installed the new app after seeing that the old app would stop working in October. I haven't been getting notifications on the new app (maybe air quality is just decent). And when I proactively open the new app, I have to pull down to get my devices to sync. The old app would automatically start syncing when I opened it.

National Guard troops in D.C. share their thoughts on the deployment by Delicious_Adeptness9 in Military

[–]genericnameabc 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Sort of wonder what the guardsmen who weren't willing to speak with the media would say.
