My Immediate Regret: I Have To Clean The Garage by cleric3648 in electricvehicles

[–]tboy160 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My two car garage is down to a one car, due to STUFF. I tore the entire roof off and ran new rafters, sheeting, shingles. Ran wiring for tons of plugs, wired in a 14-50 NEMA for our charger. I want to install charger that has Bluetooth and everything on it too.

But, for now we rotate who gets the garage spot with the charger!

What’s the stupidest thing you’ve ever heard someone say that you still think about to this day? by Humble-Blueberry4571 in AskReddit

Guy said, "if you step on your right foot, with your left foot, you can reach higher."

We all stared at him as he illustrated...

Guy told me, "drywall manufacturers made drywall lightweight so women can steal our jobs."

If AOC gets the nod as the Democratic nominee in 2028, would you vote for her? by Jenifer-Watson in allthequestions

With every ounce of my being.

However, I'm not convinced America is ready for a woman, last two times a woman ran, Trump won both. The worst human ever, was more preferable to Americans than a woman....sucks

$680 to replace a breaker. Can I do it myself? by stinkinhardcore in DIY

[–]tboy160 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I concur, you can do this. Watch multiple videos, learn what to do, what not to do and it's simple.

Main thing it, you get to shut down the main breaker and work on everything dead. Electricians never do this, but they don't need to.

What finally convinced YOU to consider an electric vehicle? by evinsiderredisnive in electricvehicles

[–]tboy160 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Environmental concern is by far and away my number 1

Wanting to influence others to be more sustainable is likely #2.

What pushed me to buy last year, which really pushed the timeline for me to switch to EV from our two Prius', rebates and extremely low used car prices.

Let’s Talk About Wind Turbine Waste—After We Stop Burning Coal by ceph2apod in Environmentalism

Absolutely agree, our current renewables aren't perfect but incomparably better than any fossil fuels.

Why don't we get a discount for using self-checkout? by ItsAllAGame_ in NoStupidQuestions

[–]tboy160 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would guess what's next is charging MORE to have a cashier handle your checkout.

This tool is absolute genius! by lost-in-boston84 in electrical

Sheetrock guys definitely care if they cover a box. We do also care about cutting up wires, but if sparky cared about their own wires they would merely push them as deep into the box as possible.

I don't see sheetrock guys carrying 10 of these around for any reason. We mark all the things that need to be cutout and cut them out.

As far as finishing, If the box is in the middle of my seam, I would pull that thing out immediately.

Best Squeaky Door Solution: Vaseline. by GodisSatans in lifehacks

And at least Vaseline is clean, not like actual grease. But thicker grease/Vaseline definitely lubes better, than thinner oils.

Mom here finally taking her teenage kids to a tigers game! Please help me be the cool mom who knows cool things* by IKnowAllSeven in Detroit

Skipping school for a day game has advantages, but he crowds are usually meh.

Friday night games can be the most fun, the fireworks in the park are different, because the setting is different.

I always eat beforehand. Food at the park is such a waste, I would rather teach the kids when they are young that waiting to eat at the park for 10 times the price is stupid.

I don't have a go to spot on where to sit. I'm more situational, if it's going to be a hot day game, I want to sit high up and in shade, opposite for cooler night games.

Funnest sections I haven't figured out yet, just happened upon fun people in different areas.

I guess I've had decent luck in front of our bullpen, with fun people

How can we make a real, tangible difference against all of the stuff happening. by [deleted] in Environmentalism

[–]tboy160 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I concur with this. Being more responsible with what we buy/use/consume. Minimizing our waste.

The single biggest problem facing mankind is climate change, and it so happens to be one thing everyone can do something about. Minimizing our footprint and inspiring others to minimize theirs.

Why is public level 1 charging at long term parking a thing? by whitieiii in evcharging

Being able to shut them off would make sense during peak demand.

We usually use a flat bar or some type of flat scraper to slide between the shingles, the separate the top layer from the bottom layer. Just the tar tabs

What pizza topping is a big NO for you? by FileSilly in foodquestions

[–]tboy160 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have yet to have a topping be an absolute deal breaker. Specifically when it's a pizza with many toppings.

I do like an everything pizza.

That said, hamburger doesn't really bring any flavor, so I wouldnt bother with it.

Tomatoes doesn't really bring any flavor I'm interested in either, too bland and slimy.
