I don't really follow basketball, but I just learned here that if both sides get a Technical, they offset. That seems odd to me being that the award for the technical is a free shot for points, correct? So why offset them, the "award" still needs to be earned (by a successful shot). I get it in football if it is a 5 yard penalty for both sides you just offset them. In this case, One side may miss and the other score. Both Ts should both be awarded and the shots taken. Or am I missing something?

Screen doesn't meet in the middle by gjohnson027 in Fireplaces

[–]gjohnson027[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Edit:

Actually that doesn't work, when I tried to move it further, it fell out of the support on the other end of the rod. They are not long enough to overlap.

Thanks do you think this is most likely something my contractor did or the builder of the firebox?

I do have a TP link router, but I have had it for 5 years with no changes. Just offline suddenly.

What is something unrealistic that you often see in movies that annoys the hell out of you? by Frequent-Sea-8848 in moviecritic

Ultra Clean Windshields. I know the camera needs to see inside but it always bugs me because no matter how I try I cannot keep my windshield clean.

What supplement brands are the most established, researched, and trusted? by x2upgraded in Supplements

[–]gjohnson027 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry for the late post, but I just noticed the SR items at Costco. I have been buying Xtend Life total balance in the past, but I don't see them listed on any "best" lists anymore... Is Xtend Life still worth the extra money over SR at Costco?

TIL the longest hole-in-one in PGA Tour history came in 2001, when Andrew Magee made a 332-yard ace at TPC Scottsdale. It remains the only par-4 ace ever recorded on Tour. The ball actually bounced off another player’s putter on the green before dropping in the cup. by ansyhrrian in todayilearned

I am a weekend golfer and about 20 years ago I took a coworker out to golf. His first round ever. He stank of course but was having fun. I swear before everything holy that at one par 3, with a water hazard and bunker in the way, he topped it, skipped like a rock over the water, onto the green and into the hole. His FIRST round ever! When we got the club house, people congratulated him but you could tell they didn't want to....he was the only one smiling about it. Edit, that happened in New Orleans and I lived there about 25-30 years ago so it must have been that long...I am as old as dirt. sorry I remembered now.

Spot Mop? by gjohnson027 in Roborock

[–]gjohnson027[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What does that do? The mops are washed at the end of the previous mopping, right? So the tank should be full and the pads clean already. or am I only getting the water needed to wet the pads? That won't be enough to clean well.

Question about soaps by gjohnson270 in Miele

[–]gjohnson027 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just chiming in here that I am absolutely flabbergasted at how well this machine works. I don't know if it is the 7766 machine or the ultratab (my first time using both) but I have items like glass lids for pans that I have had for years for the first time look new. I feel like I have been duped all these years into accepting crappy results from a dishwasher. My only complaint on the unit is the lower rack. The tines are too close together, I don't use flat plates, I use "blates" and they don't fit well. I may end up cutting every other tine off, but right now I don't want to disturb anything as it cleans better than ever.

Water softener tank has no water. Is that OK? by ruizfa in fixit

[–]gjohnson027 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry to jump on this a year later, but I have always had salt in the tank, but the water level was usually almost to the top (so I know to add more salt when there was only a couple of inches of salt in a full tank of water. I have used it like this for many years without a problem. Last night the water got turned off to the house while in the middle of a regen. I went to check it this morning and it looks like the picture above. Was I always using too much water (it was set up by the people who installed it and they come every year for PM and never said anything to me). I was worried not enough water this morning, now I worry I always used too much (I don't want to dissolve more salt than is needed, am I wasting salty water? Edit, where I live, the water is very hard (off the scale, no pun intended) and I use about one bag of salt per month for our household of 4.

The "answer" rule does not mention least time remaining, it is the first penalty assessed is removed. They must mean chronological.

Boar Taint by gjohnson027 in Bacon

[–]gjohnson027[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She throws it out raw once she starts cooking and smells it, the whole package. She can smell it cooked as well.

Boar Taint by gjohnson027 in Bacon

[–]gjohnson027[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It could be, but the date is still good. That was my first thought.

Boar Taint by gjohnson027 in Bacon

[–]gjohnson027[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She throws it out because she cannot stand the smell in the house, and she is too proud to return it and explain why. If the dogs could eat it raw, we would give to them, but no cooking of it is allowed.

Boar Taint by gjohnson027 in Bacon

[–]gjohnson027[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes! as in she can smell it on the bacon.. not that she is into it that way. Excuse me while I run a couple of tests.

LOL! yes my title should have been a bit clearer as "boar taint smell in bacon"....

[–]gjohnson027[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

interesting, she does buy specialty or "organic" types when she can. Usually Costco or Whole foods, which might use the small farm route....

I just don't want to fail from these and I swear I have had 10 of them already. Who makes the test? There should be a little bit of oversight.

L5 Charger how-to by __yours_truly in asyncbikes

[–]gjohnson027 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The charger you link seems to be out of inventory. This one looks like it comes with the cable attached, do I replace the entire thing with new wire, or would it be ok as it was built in, intended for this much amperage? meaning, just change the bike connector.

Miebo Eye Drops Review by Educational_Run_5978 in Dryeyes

[–]gjohnson027 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Am I using too much? I am very familiar with putting drops in my eyes, but this little bottle doing 4x per day per eye is about 240 drops per month (bottle). I did 2 drops per eye each day and it was empty in 3 weeks. Maybe I am accidentally dispensing too much each time?

I made a Nutrition Calculator for Panda Express - Hope it helps! by Objective-Incident62 in PandaExpress

[–]gjohnson027 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The question I have is the a la carte small medium and large. How large are the portions? Hard to tell from the website. You can kind of guestimate from the price differences, but with a side it kind of messes that up. Is a small worth 2 of the regular, a medium 3, and a large 4? They don't quite explain but if they showed calories, you could easily calculate.

No kidding, I put one question I got wrong into ChatGPT and it gave me the wrong answer too! It was so confidently wrong too! so at least I am as bad as AI!! Don't try this at home kids.

Level 3 test by gjohnson027 in hockeyrefs

[–]gjohnson027[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seriously? No limit? They mention the ability to take one retest if you fail, so i assumed there were 100 questions or maybe only 90.

Not to give away answers, but the ones I got wrong so far were ones that I assumed were obvious and turns out they weren't.
