    Smartphones

    So Apple show the iPhone XR at 128gb max. Verizon offers it at 256gb max. I don't want to contact either one right now so do any of you know what's going on here? They're both the same price. Edit:After more searching, Costco and BestBuy also sell the 256gb version. Only Apple doesn't.

    Bummer. I realize you probably didn't think about it until you got home, but as part of your repairs, consider a Wi-Fi controller because if you had remembered at work, you could have shut it off.

    It's a "land speed record". If it stay on the ground, it's fair game. In 1962, Craig Breedlove ignored the rules that said the vehicle had to have 4 wheels with 2 of them driven and set a record with his free wheeling trike the Spirit of America. It looks like they're mostly 4 wheel now, but...

    Car ?'s

    I'm not doubting your ability to put the right parts on. I'm doubting their story. If they're so sure it will pass smog after installing the correct pipes, why don't they do it? I would think it would increase the value of the car more than the labor to perform the procedure. And what if they're...

    I saw this movie for the second time. The first time I was on vacation and the inlaws had some free passes so we went. Problem was, the seats were front row and you all know what that's like.

    You did it exactly right. But just for drill... When I set a toilet I use new flange bolts, not the old cut off ones. New bolts will come with those plastic snap on washers that will hold the bolts perfectly straight. The new wax ring is pressed firmly to the bottom of the toilet that is laying...

    When I would do stone or tile floors in a WC I would get matching siliconized grout and caulk around the toilet and tub if there was one. It made the job look "finished."

    I don’t like them. When you set a toilet you need to feel the wax hit the floor before the toilet does. You don’t get that feedback with those rubber rings. Also, when you caulk around the toilet leave the back undone so that if you develop a leak, you will see water before it becomes a big deal.

    PVC is fine for under the sink. Two P traps is a little odd, but if it's working and not leaking, leave it alone. The dishwasher drain needs to be addressed. Code used to be that you needed an air gap in that line to keep it from siphoning back into the dishwasher. Today, however, most places...

    If those don't, there are others that will. Some come with both mounting methods. Worst case scenario is you use a couple dabs, not a lot, of adhesive like liquid nails or even clear silicon and glue them up. They're very light and since they're LEDs, they will last a long time.
