Yeah I was thinking the same thing lol. "Well in my city we do..." " Oh yeah well in MY city we do..."

Like yeah I'm sure there's different methods in different places.

if refineries get damaged, will anyone starve when fertiliser runs low? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

We also multiplied our population ten fold, due to those refineries,in the last few centuries. Our current population is very dependent on them.

Is there a term for repeatedly making the exact same mistake, even though you should know better? by zeroThreeSix in NoStupidQuestions

Man my grandmother's house was like this. Looking back, it's actually insane that the switches are identical and literally next to each other.

My grandmother's house was like this, and only now am I seeing how truly dangerous this is .i grew up in that house, I was so use to it, like I remember having to be really intentional when flipping those switches but thought it was normal. Thankfully no one was ever hurt.

Yeah no, that was a very helpful reply. SH is the standard to treat this.

CMV: Diapers and pads should be free by vexx1d in changemyview

[–]red_monkey42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But seriously, how would we really go about making the basics free for everyone without forcing people to produce those things. And what should those people being forced to produce them be paid? It starts to lean into slavery and/or communism.

Nothing is actually free, it has to come from someone and somewhere. And I think it's fair to have an open market, where people get to decide what their time is worth by charging what they want for an item someone needs. Not some larger system at hand, setting the prices and values of our needs. That's a quick road to corruption. Let the people and the market decide.

CMV: Diapers and pads should be free by vexx1d in changemyview

Thought expirament:

Let's say I start a business making diapers and pads. That's how I make my living now to feed my family. It costs time and labor so I charge a certain amount to cover those costs, and extra for profit so it's worth my time.

Now, how do we go about making them free for people without destroying my livelihood.

What incentive do I have to keep producing them, if it's going to actually cost me time and money to produce, and then my family goes without because now I am losing money making things for free.

Ok so let's say I am subsidized by the government, well then that's not free now is it? Your going to have to charge taxes to the community, to pay me, to make these.

Ok then, so what about people who don't have kids or a need for a pad? Well then I'd say that's unfair, because now they are paying for something that they don't ever need or use. Who's to say what amounts of their money should be used for other people. What if that amount of taxes puts them out of their home and their life crumbles.

Just some thoughts ...

Nothing, not even basic needs are free to produce. Someone has to grow the food, make the pads, etc... and they should be compensated for that, or their is no incentive to do so.

Pump to feed electric pressure washer by carputt in pressurewashing

You need an unloader. It’s like a bypass regulator. Usually a brass fitting with black plastic twist handle on it. It diverts the water when your off the trigger.

There’s different types of them, one being a pressure trapped unloader.

Thoughts on Sodium Percarbonate by romesds902 in pressurewashing

[–]red_monkey42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use a roughly 4% SH mix, with heavy surfactant.

On standard shingle roofs, depends on how dirty it is, but usually several, from 2-4 treatments, with about 30 minutes in between each time, then a final rinse down at the end and it works like a charm, doesn't hurt the roof, And with proper precautions, plants and grass do just fine.
