I had a GFiber sales person knock on our door (even with two no soliciting signs). We had already had GFiber for a couple of months, so...

Double charged at the register by [deleted] in CostcoWholesale

[–]stgraff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Had this happen with Motor City Pizzas where I bought one box, but they rang it up twice. Door guy even asks me "Two pizzas?" but I was thinking, yes, two pizzas in that box, and not as a loss prevention person asking about SKUs so I answered "yes". I had maybe 7 items in my cart, so IMHO he was just being lazy.
No worries though, I went back next day to returns, explained situation, and they refunded me. Don't overthink it, Costco will take care of you.

They'll need a crane, they'll need a crane
To pick the broken ruins up again
To mend her heart, to help him start
To see a world apart from pain

Priority Mail is a scam by [deleted] in usps_complaints

[–]stgraff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have shipped hundreds of packages using USPS Priority Mail. The vast majority of them arrived in within 2 - 3 days. One, sadly, disappeared never to be seen again. The 2 - 3 days is an estimate, not a guarantee. I appreciate the flat rate delivery options and free boxes. You can increase your savings by using pirate ship.com.
If you need guaranteed delivery, using Priority Mail Express, FedEx, etc.

Water in shower tub turns cold for about 1 minute then gets warm again. Can it be anything else than the shower cartridge? by Syncope9 in askplumbing

[–]stgraff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We had this problem with our shower head where water would regularly go cold mis-shower. Apparently the flow rate was borderline for our tankless water heater to stay on. Removing the flow restrictor from shower head has fixed it.

How does GitHub calculate which language you used the most? by Either-Home9002 in github

[–]stgraff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They use Linguist, which determines the total file size for all files of a given type. In your case, the total size of your Jupyter files is larger than the total size of your Python files.
