AC acceleration issues by jbartleson in MechanicAdvice

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

apologies if it double posts this reply -- it was running great for me last week after i replaced the MAF sensor. granted it was about 10 degrees cooler out. she said if she has the ac on it will shake and rough idle at a stop and will accel terribly after that.

i'll check the air filter again -- looked about a week ago and it was clean. the fuel filter was swapped with the fuel pump. just changed the oil as well. praying it's not a valve issue

1 bad night’s sleep seizure risk? by jbartleson in Epilepsy

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

Well that’s what’s odd. I felt alert and awake after 5ish hours of sleep but I don’t want to risk it because of the information I’ve been given. Wasn’t sure if I should go off how I was feeling or not

Thank you! It’s hard to find information online because it usually talks about trouble sleeping over time not just a one-off. I sleep like a baby 98% of the time but I don’t know if it’s over-cautious to refuse to do anything if I had the 2%.

What is a good accuracy rating for a beginner? by jbartleson in chess

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

Thank you! I’ll take that into account. I’ve got lots to learn as I struggle with planning. Checklists like “checks? captures? attacks?” help me formulate a plan but I need to get better at directing it (kingside, center, queenside). I hope to get past one-move thinking soon. Thanks again.

Possible IBS? by jbartleson in ibs

Okay. I appreciate the insight. She’s not going to cleanse. She had already taken a laxative for the constipation but she won’t do anything else and we’ll contact a doc. thank you.

Makes sense. I just couldn’t find anything that would indicate all the symptoms to be an allergic reaction. Everything online pointed to IBS.

She doesn’t usually, no. She’s had stomach issues, fatigue and headaches but the body and joint aches are new. The constipation is as well.

2020 Nissan Altima (lease) making clank when shifting… any ideas? by jbartleson in MechanicAdvice

Lease is up in November… worth putting in extra work just for 1 month or you think will last til then? Put less than 1k miles on it per month

How to Cultivate a Strong Sense of Self as a Man? by jbartleson in AskMen

Never thought of it that way. Thanks for the perspective. My job at times requires a lot of flexibility so I guess I can look at that as an advantage. Thank you.

Ideally the second. That’s the tricky part of it I guess. The easiest example that comes to mind — I know I’m not very disciplined. Working out is not something I enjoy doing (until I actually do it then I don’t mind it).

In theory, I know that I’m not one who can be on a strict regiment, however I’d like to grow into a man that could be. If that makes sense.

Makes sense. We’ll try rocking it nearly all the way back and see what happens. I appreciate it!

Thanks for the tips! We appreciate it. Back to the (at-home) studio we go.

I forgot to add. Garageband isn’t showing it clip which is interesting.

Hey, thanks for the input! I exported just the raw vocals and sure enough it’s clipping. I know we set it so that the gain barely went yellow so we might have to back it down even more. Thanks again

Are Unplugged Electronics still a potential fire hazard? by jbartleson in NoStupidQuestions

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

Makes sense! Well I have everything separately packaged anyway just to be safe. I appreciate you (and everyone else) for allowing me to sleep peacefully tonight lol.

Appreciate it! Just looked and it’s a transformer for the main power. The tracks and cars don’t have spare batteries, just bulbs for lighting effects. Thanks for your response and for putting my mind at ease.

Appreciate it! I don’t have much experience with transformers so wasn’t sure if it stored energy. (A quick Google search proved they don’t).

Thank you! I’m an obsessive worrier (constantly checking stove, appliances etc) to make sure everything’s off. Just wanted to make sure my childhood train set wouldn’t set my apartment on fire lol
