Thanks all, appreciate it. I'm running the fan at night just to keep the air moving a bit. Also dropping the temp a bit. Seem to make the upstairs feel cooler.

this is what I have been doing - I'm not sure why I didn't think of it before. how big of a humidifier are you running, and do you need to replace them often? Oh no, not that.

Does anyone run their HVAC fan all the time, versus using the auto setting? It's been really hot in the east. We had a Carrier dual speed system installed a few years back. Our house is older (70's), with not the best insulation (that is my next improvement.) The temp between the upper and...

Thanks - not sure how I missed them at my local store. Maybe I need to visit the optometrist too.

Ugh...I have these all over my house. Good call on replacing with commercial. I'm having trouble finding them lately locally. You get them at a supply house?

for what it's worth, NY does not have an annual fee. (paying a fee to pre-pay tolls pisses me off.)

With Fidelity, for example, you could construct a three-fund portfolio using: Fidelity ZERO Total Market Index Fund (FZROX)[note 5] or Fidelity Total Market Index Fund (FSKAX) Fidelity ZERO International Index Fund (FZILX)[note 5][note 6] or Fidelity Total International Index Fund...

Super cool build, really like that case. Today I learned about Nobara Linux - gotta check that out. Really wish I saw this first - my son and I just went intel for his build. (No reason, only because the AMD model numbers confuse me). What kind of monitors are you running? Good call on...

Thanks guys, I'm up to about 3.5 quarts (which is about what came out plus a some spillage). I was surprised how much debris was on the drain plug. Definitely something I'm going to do every 25-30k. I'll probably get a proper scan tool to measure the temp. (I still need to to the transfer...

sending out a flier in case anyone is online tonight. the parts guy at my local dealer sold dw-1 at a pretty good price, so I did a drain and fill this afternoon. I'm struggling at reading the dipstick. About 109 ounces came out, and I replaced a little less, thinking I would dial it in...

I think it's the 6 speed, and uses DW-1. (I believe the 9 speed is only available in the highest spec pilot for 2020). I'm one of the rare weirdos that had bad shift flares with Maxlife on another Honda. So I'm going OEM (or maybe Idemitsu if I have to). Hopefully I can fill it from the top...

Is the maintenance minder time based for trans fluid? I was a little surprised to see a code at less than 30k.

Weird one here. I downloaded a photo taken with my iphone onto my windows device from icloud via the web interface. The zip created was flagged as a containing a virus. (Apple sends the download with a jpeg and "live" photo in a zip container). Anyone experience this? Both devices (phone...

Probably obvious, but new valve cover gasket when finished. My mechanic tried to reuse the old one, which failed.

The apartment was years ago and the leak was at the furnace pilot light and barely perceptible (by nose anyway). The gas company redtagged the furnace, it was repaired by a hack and then redtagged again. So, I'm especially cautious around natural gas. (It was a learning experience for me)...

My utility is offering to install an excess flow valve at my cost. I'm going to call for details. Anyone know the cost of something like this, or if they fail? Good or bad idea? My house is about 50 years old - looking at the gas line coming from the ground to the meter, I'm seeing some...

Thanks - good info. I tried Target and a franchise Verizon store the other day - neither had working phones. Nearest apple store is 40 minutes unfortunately - I suppose I could try Best Buy.

Thanks folks - appreciate all the comments. My current phone was an apple refurb they gave me as a warranty replacement at the apple store. (They warrantied a refurb I originally bought on ebay - which they didn't have to do - so they earned a customer). I may have gotten lucky, but it has...

I tend to keep phones for a while - and my Iphone 8 is about useless. I'm looking at an Iphone 14 Pro refurbished on the apple site for $929. Is a 16 Pro worth the upgrade? (I want a good camera for photos - I am blown away by the quality my buddy gets out of his older pro model). I do not...

I fell down the rabbit hole a bit looking at the removed guns list. Colt O1991AR (George S. Patton Tribute) .45 ACP Pistol 5" 01/01/2016...
