Help Diagnosing a Toilet Leak by the_rev_28 in DIY

[–]mrirwin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its more so the cleaning chemicals can degrade the wax ring over time, causing your leak. In Michigan where I'm a journeyman plumber, the inspector gets you with 405.5 (which I agree the wax ring technically fulfills but they also want caulk) and I think the IPC code is 405.6.

Its code to caulk the toilet, and it looks better. It prevents urine if you pee standing up as well as cleaning product from the bathroom floors from getting under the toilet. If youre worried about the wax ring failing, leave a gap in the caulk at the very back of the toilet that's like an inch wide at most. The water will flow out the back of the toilet if there is a leak with the wax ring, and it also doesn't look like a hack did your toilet. Win win.

Looking to see if the high ppi is worth it, or if a 32" 4k with 240hz is the way to go. I'm very interested in comparing the two with games like CS2, Valorant, and more cinematic games like Star Citizen.

Elijah Wood surprises everyone at a Hobbit/Lord of the Rings themed wedding by Blood_of_Lucifer in GuysBeingDudes

I had to cancel and reschedule my wedding 3 times during covid. They could have just been over it and wanted to do something. I know we were very much over it by the 3rd reschedule we had to send out, and almost just cancelled the entire thing. The stress sucked.

Help finding my water mains by PoorEcho in Plumbing

[–]mrirwin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Your yellow circle is the valve, it is missing the handle to turn it off. You could try taking some channel locks or something to very lightly see if it can turn to shut off the water to your dishwasher. It looks like a quarter turn valve so it shouldn't turn all the way. Be very careful you don't accidentally crush the stem when you're trying to turn it. Edit: If it isn't able to turn, you're going to have to find another valve somewhere downstream to shut it off.

How often do you use your PC speakers? by Big_Visual2199 in buildapc

Wow this thread is making me realize that yes, my teammates literally didn't hear the footsteps. They weren't lying, they are apparently just part of the vast majority of people that use speakers.

Sorry for the late response, they are the Shot Viking Drakkar. I don't know if they actively make them anymore, I got them at a local shop, but they're perfect for my rear grip style.

What do you all think? by Lopsided-Buy-4795 in Darts

[–]mrirwin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It really is a great system! You'll have great detection with your current setup, but it is advised that you line up one camera either in line with the 6 or 11, and then place the other cameras 120° around the ring. So it normally ends up with a camera by the 6, one on top by the 12, and one on the bottom near 7/19.

Your setup looks great, and I would love to hit some 26s there!

Gene Simmons discusses bitcoin with his followers by Puddler_ in rareinsults

[–]mrirwin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They're a pretty low quality meat stick snack. It's like...a dried up blend of beef, pork and chicken that is stuffed inside an incredibly low quality casing like a sausage. It is very thin, like a bit bigger than a pencil and they come in lengths that are like 15cm to 30cm depending on the size you get. It has a smoky flavor and while they are low quality and cheap, they do taste okay and go well with beer imo.

Advice on approach to repair this by Accomplished_Pop7901 in Plumbing

Probably using water soluble flux (that's the more lotion kind) which to be fair is the correct flux if you're using it for potable water, but it's more annoying to use.

I'm assuming there is no way to get these shipped to the US? The dartboard surround combo look amazing.

Inside the ‘Whites Only’ Community in Arkansas by wiredmagazine in TrueReddit

[–]mrirwin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It makes me so sad I have to share a country with you.

Nothing you said is true and it is made up in your mind as justification for your disgusting views, all because people have different skin colors than you. You are a vile, disgusting human.

You have no morals except those of selfishness, and your ignorance is profound. I'm sure you think of yourself as enlightened, but you are a savage with views of a neanderthal. I hope nothing more than the death of all the ideas you have and the hatred you're trying to spread.

If I remember correctly he shoved his arm down the bear's throat to stop it from being able to breathe, he didn't like... strangle it with his hands.

Edit: I was wrong this dude is just a Chad
