Yeah I mean…we are all born into an already existing system. I guess we could all kill ourselves to help the planet, but that’s not really a great option for the self. I don’t have the power to change my country’s infrastructure as a singular being.

I mean, there are still multiple large and/or long standing instances out there. It’s not like there is only a single one of them. I would just generally encourage people to utilize those instead. And if they choose a smaller instance that they should be aware of the risks.

Until the admin of a small instance decides to randomly leave the project one day and your account is gone forever. I’ve seen it happen multiple times and it’s why I go for bigger or at the very least, long standing instances.

I’d be surprised if any celebrity was on Lemmy lol. It seems like it would be for everyone! That sounds pretty interesting to me!

Sometimes humor doesn’t come across well to everyone online. I thought it was funny and upvoted :)

I had never heard of this so I had to Google. It seems the advantages you are talking about don’t all necessarily apply if your water heater is outside then, right? I mean, I guess it’ll be a bit more energy efficient, but cooling and dehumidifying effects are only if the water heater is indoors, correct? There is not a system to do any sort of interior cooling for outdoor water heaters, no?

Forgive me if these are stupid questions. I hadn’t heard about this type of water heater before. I live in a hot climate, but my water heater is in an outdoor storage closet.

Hope you have fun :)

I think it’s brick in some areas because that’s the converted basement area. The other parts probably already had walls like that and they just painted them.

It’s the royal throne.

Bad real estate? More like amazing real estate. I love it lmao. Well, except for the pricetag.

Plus why put this here instead of in the NSFW instance they came from?

That’s what I’m thinking and hoping it likely is! I can’t totally rule out the possibility that it’s also leaking through the hairline chips, but they don’t seem deep enough to cause that. More than likely it’s just the tub drain itself like you said!

Yes you have the situation correct! I wasn’t sure if it was even the tub or not at first because it took multiple hours for the dripping to subside. I posted this a bit too early …it was definitely the tub and the dripping has finally stopped.

I assumed it was the seal around the tub drain leaking slowly, but I didn’t think about the hairline crack thing. Upon careful examination of the tub basin, there are a bunch of small hairline scratches or possible cracks in the basin near the drain. I didn’t realize that could happen tbh. Was hoping it was the drain because that seemed like an easier fix but now I’m not sure if it really is the basin itself leaking. Is there a way I can determine whether or not the scratches are cosmetic or whether or not this is the source of the leak?

Either way, I’m glad it’s not an immediate emergency!

That’s an interesting theory. I’m not knowledgeable enough to know if that can happen. Where do you think that would cause a pipe to come loose do you think?

Thank you for your comment, but stores aren’t going to be open for a bit still. Do you have any toolless ideas in the meantime?

It’s not free standing, but I don’t see anything that resembles a panel. It’s one of those fairly standard tub/shower combos.

It’s interesting because this has to be pretty conflicting for that man.

I mean, yes you do have memories at 6 as an adult…but really not many. I know he knew he was taken away from his family. But it says that they kidnapper interestingly raised him to being an adult. I wonder what that relationship between him and his kidnapper was like and if he felt that she had become his adopted mom or not.

Shame his real mother never got to learn that he was alive and well. I’m sure everyone assumed he died…as is what happens to most children who go missing.

I had some people install a new water heater at my place. They turned off what was labeled as the water heater at the breaker and proceeded to change out the heater.

I noticed later that it seemed odd that the AC hadn’t cycled on all day. Eventually realized the circuit breaker was mislabeled.

The guys doing the water heater replacement were working on a live line and I guess they didn’t bother to check with a multimeter. Jesus. They didn’t get hurt/killed thankfully.

Is this an article? When I click the link in my mobile browser, I can only see the headline and a static image.

Are you alive today lol

Oh please. Power hungry? I have no problem with piracy, but you bet your ass I wouldn’t want the legal liability of hosting a piracy community. Do you know that in many countries, mods/admins are risking jail time when they participate in stuff like that? God forbid, some people don’t want to have to worry about going to jail. Get over yourself. There are plenty of other piracy communities all over the internet you can find on your own.
