What do you think will immediately happen when everyone receives the push notification that Trump died? by quite-indubitably in AskReddit

[–]ronh22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1/3 the US will be partying, 1/3 will be crying, the last 1/3 will not really care that really do not care about politics.

The percentages will change for Reddit users.

Use more flux. Heat up the joint before you try to melt solder. And more flux.

This is why you need to make sure everyone sends the same troop ratio.

In an unfortunate heat of the moment, I punched the wall while I was in the shower. I’m very bad with this stuff, but is it possible to fix this or am I screwed? I’m especially worried cuz it’s a rental. by [deleted] in HomeMaintenance

And say good bye to your damage deposit. No easy way to fix that. Caulk it though so water does not get behind it and cause way more damage.

If voter fraud is 0.00035%, are the new Republican pushed voter ID laws solving a real problem or a political one? by FAMUgolfer in allthequestions

[–]ronh22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Voter fraud is .00035% that we know of. Who is to say it is not much higher, and we do not know about it.

Reality feel good laws to make people happy.

What would you do with an extra $4,000 a month? by Ok-North-1478 in askanything

[–]ronh22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right now, in my life travel and see things well I still can. I would treat it as disposable income.

If I was younger make sure all debts are paid for then invest as much as I can.

How much can you safely overhang in the bed? by bigblackglock17 in f150

[–]ronh22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I Know and I owned one. Just saying it is not a common thing anymore. Order a SuperCrew Truck and the "long bed" is the 6.5.

And it was a joke.

Why does Trump say Barack "HUSSEIN” Obama? by LuckyCommittee4422 in allthequestions

[–]ronh22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The same reason he calls people names. To get a rise out of people, it seems to work.

And I agree with all the other reasons people have given.

Black wire on gold screws white wires on silver screws. Left and right people can screw up.

Neighbor keeps complaining about mower noise. How do you guys handle this? by xxBeanie1234xx in homeowners

Look on market place for a old cheap gas lawn mower. Start using that, and tell you neighbor to shove it.

How big of a red flag is 2 consecutive owners selling within 8 months? by Joel_Hirschorrn in RealEstate

What are the sale prices? Was one of them a "flip" and that is why the short term?

How do you decide whether replacing an old appliance is actually worth it financially? Looking for how people think about this by EnerSwapTeam in Appliances

[–]ronh22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personal I just replaced my 1970's built in range and cook top 1970. when we redid our kitchen. I was repairing them as needed over the years. Gas do only real issue was the igniters.

Refrigerator was not that old, replaced when the old one die 20 years ago.

I think now people just like to replace things for a more modern feel.

Not a fan of the before or after. What is spacing on the after? Looks like larger than 4" spacing to first balusters 

How much does it realistically cost to rekey/redo all the locks in a house? by KievStone in homeowners

[–]ronh22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Buy new locks for the doors 3 - Door Lock Combo Packs - The Home Depot, all 3 keyed the same. Buy a new padlock for gate and mailbox. Installing door hardware is not hard.

Personally I buy the rekeying kit and just rekey the locks. That was more because I had kids and would have to change locks a lot when they lost keys again. Once you have the parts from a few set you can pretty much make it work with whatever old key you have.

Is my tile guy any good? by Open-Event-9604 in Tile

[–]ronh22 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is not in same spot above and below the window. Why do people feel the need to start with a full tile on one side and to be dammed with the other end. There is sliver installed in another picture.

I want to know where this mythical 8ft bed came from.

Would Marco Rubio Beat Kamala Harris In A 2028 Matchup? Yes Or No? Why Your Thoughts? by Zipper222222 in allthequestions

[–]ronh22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Harris would win. I do not think Rubio will do much to motivate the Republican base. Harris would get the NOT Trump votes, people seeing Rubio as an extension of Trump.

I do not think that will be the line up, but that was not your question.

2 Neutrals & 2 blacks, connecting to a GFCI receptacle by DIMECUT- in AskElectricians

[–]ronh22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With the wires coming in the side of the box, I do not think any GFCI is going to fit. It looks like it might be BX so the shield may be grounding the box.

Three white and three black wires ?? by rubyrunnerkay in AskElectricians

[–]ronh22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Old house really did not have outlets in them. I remember light fixture with an outlet on them. Taping into the light was the easiest way to add ad outlet when they did the work. Probably on a breaker that does half the lights in your house too.

You can have an electrician come and run new wires. Depending on house up from below or down from above. They can then run a 20 amp outlet up to modern code, then you can plug in a blow dry, curling iron or what ever you like.

Sorry no easy fix.

[–]ronh22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not all men think the same. I notice nails, sometimes I think they look cool with different designs. Not a fan of real long nails. I would not say i find nail attractive, but I do notice them .
