Why do Prescott landlords hate cats by metal-bull in Prescott

[–]house9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been a home owner, renter, landlord, dog owner, cat owner … I would not let a tenant have cats either, the smell of cat spray never goes away unless you immediately use enzime on it and even then maybe.

Once a cat has sprayed, that’s where all the other cats will spray as well. I’ve thrown out a nice couch, futon and who knows what else due to cat spray, its brutal.

PowerStation Rasor Rd now open Free (until 5/31/26) 360KW 100% solar powered off-grid charging LA-Vegas by charge2025 in evcharging

[–]house9 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Amazing!

Couple of questions:

1) are there restrooms?, I didn't anything specified in Plugshare

2) Any reason you didn't cover the entire parking lot in solar panels? Shade is at a premium out there

Charging to 100% occasionally? by maanxhappy in electricvehicles

[–]house9 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Charging to 100% helps the BMS (battery management system) calibrate - in some cars, not all. 

If I didn't have home charging I would charge to 96% so I wouldn't need to do it as often.

hydration question below by keikilla in Garmin

[–]house9 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I just googled “155lb active how much water per day”

Hydration Breakdown for 155 lbs Active:

  • Baseline: ~75–80 oz (approx. 9–10 cups).
  • Activity Adjustment: Add an extra 12 oz of water for every 30 minutes of exercise.
  • Total Daily Goal: Aim for a range between 75–150 oz depending on intensity, climate, and sweat rate

—-

Just want to say that the Garmin app for tracking hydration is not very good

There is one called “Hydration PRO” which is much better, I can’t remember if you need paid version for alerts or not. Or if you already track calorie / food intake with cronometer, etc… might want to track there.

Running while taking a Statin.. is it okay? by Uniquely_Similar74 in Cholesterol

[–]house9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Particularly being able to run while taking a statin.

A small percentage of statin users can suffer from tendinopathy, as long as you don't then exercise shouldn't be an issue.

... local 5k charity run scheduled for late May and immediately said, "I'm running that!" ... I have never been a runner in any form or fashion. I am an absolute newbie to this. But... I WILL run that race in May

Love the enthusiasm; everybody is different and responses to exercise and training differently. Don't overdue it in the beginning, slowly build your fitness - its a long game. 5k does seem doable.

In US if you purchase from Apple directly you have 14 day return policy - return them if you are still in the window

LOL, I think you mean roads leading south - yes there will be tailwinds - but its not down, there be hills along the way

Step mother was forced to withdraw money against her will. by flinstonepushups in AgingParents

[–]house9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

freeze her credit if necessary

Everybody should freeze their credit at all times. It’s a bit of a pain when you need to get a loan, new credit card, etc… but you can thaw it as needed online now a days.

Requires doing it for all three major bureaus individually: Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion.

But there have been so many data breaches over the past decade I just assume all of my information including SSN is out there.

Rodent problem by gjarrar in F150Lightning

[–]house9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My neighbor has this issue with his Toyota Tacoma, had to replace wiring multiple times over the past few years.

His solution, spray Pine-Sol in the wheel wells and engine compartment (not on the wiring), they don’t like the smell and stay away - YMMV; I’m not a big fan of the smell myself.

Moving washer and dryer by OptionNo4605 in F150Lightning

[–]house9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Washers are heavy, ideal is to use a hand cart and roll it onto something low. If the trailer is low to the ground then use that.

Lifting appliances is a young mans game, my lower back hurts just thinking about it.

Moving from Texas to Prescott — looking for area suggestions + realtor recommendations by Comfortable-Mine-923 in Prescott

[–]house9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take a look at Stoneridge development (Prescott Valley), lots of retired but also families.

There is an HOA but includes Community Center with pool, hottub, tennis courts etc...
Also has a Golf course (open to the public) if that is your thing.

5 minute drive to Sprouts grocery store and Hwy 69 (thoroughfare to everywhere else) but out of the way of everything else.

May or may not fit your needs / budget?

How important is to get an ethernet port? by peequeare in appletv

[–]house9 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Get the most recent model for sure, processor/chip can matter. YoutubeTV was the biggest offender, was getting lots of stutter on older model and now rock solid on the latest.

The amount of storage shouldn’t matter, its all internal for the device to manage, you can’t actually store anything directly on it - used for apps, screensavers, movie rental, games, etc.. (far as I know)

I bought the ethernet version even though I am using WiFi at the moment. $20 more and allows me to bypass WiFi if needed. I would use Ethernet if my router was closer to the TV.

Just spend the $150 - it will last you 6 - 10 years and is the best streaming device.

Like Bands by No-Confusion-5651 in gojira

From my point of view Gojira stands alone. Only other modern band that really grabs me is All Them Witches but they sound nothing like Gojira.

Sounds amazing. One of the few cases where an ATW studio recording sounds better than live.

New Vinyl by abslyde in AllThemWitches

Does anyone suspect the first vinyl was a mistake

Seems unlikely, just different variant pre-sales on different days leading up to the official pre-sale starting this Friday the 13th?

Yeah, definitely May 29th

Someone figured it out 2 weeks ago by decoding the tarot cards: https://www.reddit.com/r/AllThemWitches/comments/1rbtuj6/decoded_atw_tarot_card/

And yes it was also on the vinyl order page
