I never get robocalls, since my phone only rings if it's from someone on my contacts list. All other calls go to voicemail, and robocallers very rarely leave a voice mail. The only hassle is I need to add new contacts if I want to allow someone to call. I find that businesses leave messages...

My suggestion would be to look at something like this. https://amz.run/92JM

One thing I learned from living in your area- don't assume you can plant a tree or shrub wherever you like. All those live oak trees there have found a crack between limestone slabs to get their roots to water. Once I even used a jackhammer to plant a tree, but ended up with a shallow pan...

In NW Oregon, SW Washington: +++ Drive north oregon coast. Seaside, Cannon Beach +++ Drive up Columbia gorge to Hood River, then up to Timberline on Mt Hood +++ Visit Mt St Helens. Note: Johnston Ridge Observatory is currently unreachable due to a landslide at Coldwater Lake. You can loop...

This reminds me of several decades ago, when my mortgage holder gave me the runaround about removing PMI. I had paid for an appraisal, then they refused to accept the appraisal, because it wasn't from "their" appraiser. I ended filing a complaint with the Comptroller of the Currency, who...

I was on Flomax for some years, then it slowly stopped working and had negative side effects. I switched to Tadalfil years ago, and it works very well. FWIW.

Just tested positive today. First time with covid for either of us. I've had multiple vaccinations, but none recently. DW tested positive a few days ago. She was immunized a month ago, FWIW. Dr prescribed paxlovid for me, so I'll start that now. So far it's been mild cold-like symptoms...

You are correct- I did some searching for 2017 crv fuel injector problems, and indeed Honda had major design/manufacturing issues with that model. Some are covered under extended warranty, or partially covered. Maybe contact Honda North America to see if they will help...

Here's my take, as an old shade tree mechanic- Don't let the shop do any work unless they can show how they diagnosed the fuel injectors as all failing. Injectors don't all just fail at once. A single injector that fails will make the engine run rough, and probably will throw a code. In...

Yup, last year I appealed and it was granted. Very easy.

It seems adblock for youtube is playing cat and mouse with youtube- sometimes it works and sometimes not. When it doesn't, I just copy the link to the duckplayer. I haven't had any youtube warnings on that.

Here's my crown story. Many years ago, my dentist told me I needed 5(!) crowns. I never had a crown up till then, and being fairly naive, and trusting the medical professional, I told him to submit the xrays to my insurance. My insurance approved 2 of the crowns, indicating the other 3 were...

Had some today at Thanksgiving, using this recipe. They were awesome! https://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/1890-roasted-brussels-sprouts-with-garlic

Per their statement, they claim it senses "tiny electromagnetic signals", caused by arcing. Just like the old spark gap transmitters, an electrical arc will produce RF noise. I suspect (just a guess) that's what they are sensing. Maybe there's a small dsp or circuit to screen for it. Before...

A quick search for a 2015 Sonata key fob came up with this one for $44 https://www.walmart.com/ip/Smart-Remote-Key-Fob-for-Hyundai-Sonata-2015-2016-2017-CQOFD00120-95440-C1000/1580326219 You'll need to have it programmed- batteriesplus.com will program it for $70. Even Ace Hardware claims...

Invidious sounds interesting. I did some poking around and found this thread To summarize: Youtube is threatening Invidious, but it's open source software, and can be renamed/cloned ad infinitum. It would be difficult to suppress- Youtube would be caught in a futile wack-a-mole. I think...

I'm also wondering if tmobile will raise mint rates. Here's a quote I found "As part of the acquisition, Mint and Ultra's founders -- Glickman and Rizwan Kassim -- will stay on to "manage the brands." Glickman tells CNET that Mint's rate plans "haven't changed and are not going to change going...

Here's something interesting- hopefully it will pan out. https://www.michiganmedicine.org/health-lab/study-shows-promising-treatment-tinnitus

FWIW I bought a 65" Hisense a couple of years ago. We rarely watch tv, so it was used very little. It broke within the first year, and to their credit they sent out a couple of repairmen and fixed it. But then it broke again a few months after the warranty expired, so it's gonna go to the...

I'm curious- have any of you tried this approach? Did you find it worked or didn't work? I'm on 1/2 unisom most nights, but still feel groggy in the mornings. I've tried various prescriptions. Maybe this is the next thing to try for me.

Here's my contribution.

Tell 'em you sell life insurance. "Have you considered a whole life policy?" I bet that will stop any further prying. :laugh:

I've had several homes built, and sold many homes. The suggestion to hire an independent home inspector is good, but make sure you find one who is competent. I have hired independent building inspectors- some good, and some quite incompetent and lazy. They missed problems. They didn't know...
