Right to Repair@discuss.tchncs.de•Obscure screw added so appliance cannot be disassembled
37·1 year agoHarbor freight has sets of tamper resistant bits. They are also handy for regular Allen and torx heads.
Doesn’t seem to me to be an outrageous request. I would have put it in a baggie or Walmart bag and returned it to the store, but it looks like it was resolved pretty easily. The threat to run it on the counter seems unnecessarily Karen.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How do people actually dumpster dive to get free food? Are there any other cheap/free ways like this to get food?
5·2 years agoI had a friend that was very good at it.
Get in and get out. Dont hang around. Don’t hesitate.
He said he thought it was like fishing in that you just didn’t know what you were going to get.
Thanks very much. Looks interesting.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What are these "bass" and "treble" that I see in an equalizer ?
4·2 years agoTreble is high frequency so clicks are more pronounced, snare drums become more sharp etc.
I just started using the public library apps this week. Piracy has gotten too difficult for me recently.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Just saw this while getting gas. Why is it illegal to get less than 4 gallons?
5·2 years agoI think it exists because people have an unreasonable price sensitivity when buying gas. They will drive miles out of their way to save a nickel a gallon. I also think they don’t really have a good understanding of mpg factors. I was told by one guy purchasing it that he gets better mileage on it(which we know isn’t true)

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Just saw this while getting gas. Why is it illegal to get less than 4 gallons?
1·2 years agoIt’s not uncommon, but not as common as died diesel of various types. A marina in Orange Beach Alabama sold a died diesel called locomotive diesel that is apparently different in composition from agricultural diesel.
Sadly the tax advantages is absorbed by the vendor as they are located in the water.

7·2 years agoNo. It does degrade some fuel system components on fuel systems not made for it.

You are an Eloi not a Morlock.
I don’t buy TVs but I quized the guy pretty heavily thinking that was an option. He seemed to know what he was talking about about. This was an Onn Roku TV.
Where I first caught wind of this was in the return line at Walmart where a guy was returning a smart TV because he wanted to hook up to his Dish receiver and couldn’t without creating an account.




Oh Mr. Queen Bee here with TWO friends.
