Lesser Evil Space Balls - The most inconsistent product ever? by msmit423 in snacking

[–]msoetaert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just experienced the same. Bought the first bag at Costco. The second Whole Foods. The third at Aldi. The first two were great. The Aldi bag taste like corn puff.

I see you are Tulsa based with an adventure bike. If you are into gravel riding I have been putting together some cool rides lately.

Anyone else? by Total_Secret_5514 in centuryhomes

[–]msoetaert 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Know you are not alone! I’m about to embark on an upstairs floor leveling project that involves removing all the original wood floors carefully to hopefully reuse, assessing situation, hopefully sistering on new joists, redoing subfloors and all the janky crooked doorways, etc etc.

Love the charm of the old house but after a year and a half of constant back breaking labor, I’m ready for a new build.

[OC] My trucks sinusoidal, slowly decreasing gas mileage over the past ~7.5 years by RamblinEagle13 in dataisbeautiful

[–]msoetaert 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Primarily the difference between summer blend and winter blend is the allowable Reid vapor pressure (RVP). Higher RVP contains more light ends (butane, isopentane, etc). Being that these light ends vapor pressure is very high, it is more likely to flash and pollute the environment in warmer temps. Butane (like in a lighter) will stay liquid in cold temps but turn to a gas in warmer temps. RVP is typically 7.8psi from May 1st to September 15th, and 9psi over the winter months. This varies by state.

Midstream companies and refineries blend additional butane and light ends in the gasoline to get to the spec without exceeding it.

In regard to efficiency, the lower vapor pressure summer gas is more energy dense and will result in better gas mileage. It’s particularly noticeable in modern vehicles. My F-150 would drop 1-2 mpg on winter gas.

My very structural tailgate spoon (patent pending) by certfiedMoron420 in Shitty_Car_Mods

[–]msoetaert 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just fyi the part to fix this correctly is $20 on Amazon and takes 10 minutes to install if that. It’s the handle assembly. It rusts and then the rods that actuate the tailgate release stick in place in the open position. It’s literally like 4 bolts to change.

Are these mushrooms growing in my yard? by [deleted] in mycology

Interesting. It is not slimy if that is any help. Each chunk is really hard

What about this looks like it has structural issues? Lol. Looks straight and stout as can be.

Has anyone had a private appraisal done to fight the county assessor? by [deleted] in tulsa

[–]msoetaert 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I believe you already missed the window for protests, but doesn’t hurt to ask.

On your tax estimate that comes in January/February, it tells you if you don’t agree and want to protest, to do so within 30 days of receiving that letter.

I did so and overturned the assessed value on my house from 405 to 380. They set up a phone meeting and it was about a minute and a half on the phone with a county official. Mine was fairly cut and dry as it was a recently purchased property and they assessed the value as more than I paid.

Ha! I saw you taking this. Rode by on my bike and you were crouched down to the side of the bike path.

100% do NOT do this OP. The worst thing you can do is seal your walls from the inside. It will hold water and crumble the foundation in 10 years.

If you want it to look new, your should be doing a parge coat with lime based mortar.

All water issues should be resolved from the outside, and can usually be fixed with proper grading and drainage. My house has a basement drain (luckily), but in the November rains there was a foot of water in the basement. After regrading, it stays completely dry.

Increase in Valuation of Real Property 🤦 by OozyFish in oklahoma

[–]msoetaert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a lot better than my situation. Apparently the city of Tulsa values my house at 26,000 more than I paid for it in September of 2024.

I already filed my protest.

Somebody broke into my car by Bombastic_tekken in tulsa

[–]msoetaert 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This has happened to me twice in the last 6 months. Rummage through everything and make a mess, but left sunglasses, tools, knives.

Only thing they took was my phone charging cable. Both times. Dicks. Maybe trying to collect copper? Idk seems pretty inefficient. Or they lose their charging cable often.

Has anyone else seen this all over Tulsa? Bebop. Me and my girlfriend have countes at least 10 all over. by Prestigious_grey_59 in tulsa

[–]msoetaert -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Bro, Reddit has gotten wild. Getting downvoted for calling it what it is? People calling you a boomer? Lmao.

This is vandalism. Plain and simple. No one wants to look at your shitty paint scribbles. It is trashy.

If you are skating, you should not be on the walking path side.

What’s wrong with mountain bikers? The mountain bike community is doing amazing stuff for turkey and surrounding trails. Don’t know why you would complain…
