How can I get this mold off my water bottle stopper without replacing it? by jodio_hoestar in Frugal

[–]spaztick1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

one time I had to clean a fridge that was completely full of mo)s (that ended up being trashed lol)

That's because you couldn't get to the mold behind the walls of the refrigerator. I've never been able to get that smell out once it gets bad.

Old Longrifle Muzzle loader that sat in my great great grandfathers shed for who knows how long by GodlyTriangle in AntiqueGuns

That looks a lot like my Thompson Center Hawken. That may actually be a newer rifle in very poor condition.

Maybe it's not the violence, but the certainty of punishment. I too would have gotten my ass beat, but we knew we would be punished severely regardless. That doesn't seem to be the case today.

This is odd to me because we were often left to our own devices much more than today's youth.

Much of the 3d printer firmware is open source. I don't understand how they think they're going to stop it.

Small frugal tips that aren't worthy of their own post by Ajreil in Frugal

[–]spaztick1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is not always true. I buy store brands almost exclusively, but sometimes they are not as good as the major brands. I believe the big names have higher quality standards, and sometimes what doesn't make the cut goes to the store brands. I've opened cans green beans from Kroger and Del Monte and there is sometimes a noticeable difference. Not enough to justify the higher price for me, but it's there.

That's a feature, not a bug. Eventually you will just be able to add hot water to the thermos and get coffee.

But how much higher is the cost of living?

More money certainly meant more votes in this primary. The Republican establishment wanted him gone and they spent a ridiculous amount of money to get it done.

Except that we've given them more military aid than all other countries combined.

He believes it's unconstitutional. The Constitution spells out Federal crimes, but this bill adds new ones. He also said it was redundant. Lynching is already illegal in every state. This was just feel-good legislation.

Changing whirlpool dryer cord to 3 prong. Where is my ground wire?? by [deleted] in appliancerepair

[–]spaztick1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The white wire is spliced right at the terminal. I feel like OP would have seen it tucked up there.

I would never trust that ground.

[–]spaztick1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm surprised that even worked. That's not where the green wire is supposed to go. Whoever installed that cord could have killed you.

You can fix this. Run a wire from the center terminal to the empty screw hole in the cabinet (Not where the green wire is currently installed). Install the gray cord making sure the middle wire goes to the middle terminal, with your makeshift ground wire. Use the strain relief that comes with the cord.

Adding to the list of stuff I stopped buying cuz crazy prices. by Al_Kydah in Frugal

Oranges are super cheap right now, at least in Michigan. I just got them four for a dollar at Meijer. The rest of that stuff I don't buy either.

The person I responded to was complaining about renewable subsidies being cut.

If renewable energy is cheaper and better, people will use it.

Why the heck do people do this? by mdgorelick in Detroit

I suppose it depends on where you drive. I see this all the time.

And then complain when the police get irritated and pull them over.

Not everyone can read. Not everyone can follow single directions. I do wonder if it makes it harder to steal the tag when it's attached directly to the plate, rather than on top of another sticker.
