    Fire tablet won't recognized a guest wifi.

    I'd make sure you're not using UNII-2 & UNII-2 Extended (DFS) channels. They're not widely supported on tablets and smart devices.

    How to Clean Oil Stains from Cement ?

    I've seen some folks have success with a weed burner / propane torch, but I wouldn't do it if there's any moisture in the concrete, it could pop a chunk up.

    Conducting your business inside a coffee shop

    Does he also do all of his work calls on speakerphone? Nearly every time I'm eating out there's someone using their speakerphone, whether it's for a video or for a phone call, and it's loud enough for everyone else to hear it. I absolutely hate it. We need a modern day of "no shirt, no...

    Vacuum bleeding cooling system…..is it wise? Is it safe? What about older cars?

    Pulling a vacuum didn't cause those hose cracks. And, Nissan had radiator issues in the early 2000s, especially with cracks. It was especially notable on the Titans. I might buy that being sucked inwards made a deteriorated hose crack bigger, but it was already gone at that point.

    Rear-Wheel Steering's Impact on Tire Wear

    That's an interesting question. If you move a wheel to the rear to even out wear, but the rear wheels steer ... what's the factory rear camber setting? Is it closer to 0?

    2002 LS1 Trans am - Random low idle/stall

    I would stop replacing parts, you are likely to introduce new issues by putting in bad/untested parts. I would remove the purge and see if it's stuck open or partially open. Your fuel trim information is very important to look at here, even if it's not the purge valve.

    Head gasket material? (AFM vs multi layer steel)

    Hence the rust jacking that happens with some head gaskets in the north east.

    Xenon headlight issues

    Flickering and dimming is a sign of the ballast failing, I don't think you've missed anything.

    Milwaukee M12 Surge and multi tool

    FWIW: I have the M18 Surge. I find the quieter operation to be the main selling point. I use it everywhere, including yesterday to take out the 30 bolts holding up the lower splash shield in place.

    2025 Honda Pilot

    Honda's timing belt system holds up better than many manufacturers chains and phasers. I'd take it over any 3.5 EcoBoost from the past 10 years.

    What is this odd but neat style of subdivision house called exactly.

    I just came back from the DFW area. For all of their "everything is bigger in TX" talk, they sure do love tract houses/neighborhoods. Yards aren't bigger in TX. I do like their prolific use of bricks though, I don't like vinyl siding.

    Samsung TV Price

    It kind of makes you feel like you’re getting wrecked over the coals when it’s not on sale.

    Are German cars safer than Japanese or American cars?

    How do you draw conclusions like this only looking at the result of the crash and not any of the details that produced the result? This could easily be down to ... Volvo and Mercedes drivers may be driven by older people who tend to be slower drivers. For example, one site I found said the...
