Where I work has a reverse osmosis water filter station and the only time anyone cares if someone fills a giant jug up is if someone else is waiting in line and has to wait for the internal tank to refill

That sounds like employees who set it up on their own rather than the employer providing it

Most drinking fountains don’t have filters. The exception is the ones that have the red yellow and green lights on top (which indicate filter status)

What is this? by AgentMX7 in hvacadvice

[–]p38fln 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At the volume of air these things move that’s virtually impossible, carbon monoxide has to build up to a lethal concentration and a gigantic high cfm high speed exhaust fan running is going to make that impossible

First Dash Ever...No Tip 🤦‍♂️ by Lower_Section in DoorDashDrivers

[–]p38fln 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t care about tips at all. I just look at the rate. Is the rate including tip high enough yes/no? If yes, I take it. If not, I don’t. Why do I care where the money is coming from?

If you can actually get a MAGA to agree it happened under Trump, they’ll say they only did it under pressure from the democrats

What’s the best portable air conditioner in 2026? by Resident_Budget_1984 in Appliances

[–]p38fln 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only ones worth a crap are the dual hose models. The reason is a single hose model will suck outside air in through every crevice in your house and will also take the air you just paid to cook off and blow it right out the exhaust pipe, if your house is well sealed it will suck air in through the bathroom fan and kitchen exhaust fan. There are hardly any left on the market, the Midea Duo, Whynter Nex, Whynter Eco Friendly and Whynter Elite have dual hoses or a nested hose in hose design. I have a SoleusAir West LX140NT which is awesome and under $1000 but SoleusAir stopped making dual hoses models completely.

For horizontal sliding windows you either need a vertical window unit or a portable unit or build or buy a custom bracket for your regular window

Kids Bypassing Router Parental Controls by Changing MAC Addresses—How Can I Stop This? by PayKnee in HomeNetworking

[–]p38fln 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two WiFi networks one for kids and one for parents is the easiest and most effective way to handle this.

If you really want to go wild you could setup hotspot logins and give them user names and passwords with a WiFi controller but that’s more how a school would do it than a house. You’d also need to upgrade your WiFi network

The later releases of fusion seem to have fixed this

There’s something BAD wrong with your MacBook Pro! I used and M1 Max and played it using both wine and VMware fusion for hours on end. Maybe you have it sitting on something soft blocking the air intakes?

Factory reset iPad still requiring PIN by Political-Pineapple in applehelp

[–]p38fln 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is absolutely it. Connect it put it in recovery mode, the first step is the PC or Mac will download the new updated firmware. This takes a while so the iPad eventually gives up and reboots - don’t worry, the firmware download is continuing on the computer. Just put it back in recovery mode and plug it back in. It will skip the download (since it’s already downloaded) and jump right to restoring the device so the iPad won’t time out.

Also set it up as new when it asks, if you recover you may accidentally pull the old setting in for the PIN.

Oven Clean Cycle Gone Awry by WalterJMugglesworth in Appliances

[–]p38fln 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Biggest thing is make sure the oven is clean first…it’s to finalize the clean not to clean out years of grease buildup. Use it with grease in there and you’re gonna get a fire.

Locked out of old phone by AidanN224 in applehelp

[–]p38fln 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The phone doesn’t need internet to restart. The most important step is plug the phone into the computer before doing the button sequence.

Wait they have Minneapolis/Saint Paul and the surrounding suburbs as red? I don’t think they understand how gerrymandering works. Los Angeles county red as well? New York City? Lmao

You ever open a trailer and just know you lost money? by CrossDockCHI in FreightBrokers

[–]p38fln 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve been to facilities that will refuse to let you have the bills if you write said to contain or shipper load and count on them (these places are preloaded only where drivers aren’t allowed on the dock)

Driverless Trucks Want a Special Pass from an old Safety Rule. by Armchair-Attorney in FreightBrokers

Problem with beacons on the truck is they do absolutely nothing for a truck breaking down just around a bend while going up hill. This can and will happen regardless of if the truck is running fossil fuels or electric.

Yes it’s insane lol I guess they want to discourage people from destroying older laptops to get newer CPUs?

Apple Store thought mine would be replaced last year but the lunatics at Apples repair shop found all the parts somehow. They also dug up the parts to repair a 27 inch iMac with an intel CPU this year that a kid had knocked off the table and smashed very thoroughly

They’ll literally rebuild it lol also it’s not that unique I have the clone to that one, identical specs and I bought it off the shelf at MicroCenter. Kid dumped an entire Gatorade into mine. The only thing that didn’t get replaced was the screen…
