In my case I did a round of battery replacements about a year ago to get them all synced after a couple annoying staggered battery replacement chirps, so I’m familiar with the codes. There was one of these that did the 3 chirps late last year and I got that warrantied successfully, so based on that experience I went ahead with replacing this one.

Good call. There are a good number of them so I’ll add this to the budget.

 

The dang thing has been rarely doing the 3 chirp code a couple times during the day for the better part of a week now. Our cat is really frightened by the sound and I fairly quickly had a suspicion which one was throwing the chirps but I couldn’t catch it in the act to be sure, and it was otherwise ambiguous which one was at fault and there were no LED codes to help.

Finally confirmed it today. 10 years and 1 month past date of purchase. 10 year warranty. Figures.

Yep, I scrubbed all my feeds for this reason. I have enough friends that post the lowlights to group chats anyway, that’s already more than enough of the bile for me.

 

He’s got good piling form I’d say.

This is how you know someone who wins the Whomp Mario Party mini game also has IT rage.

Ya if you’re big into engaging in highly niche communities the member count can be an issue, but you can always use Reddit for those and scrub it of everything else.

 

Dull men’s club posts are now at the top.

I had the exact same situation during Uri in 2021 following 36 hours of no power and dripping faucets, Houston area. Unfortunately I’d only been dripping cold water faucets due to bad advice and not yet understanding the mechanics of the plumbing system. Once I discovered the freeze I opened the faucet fully and once power was restored I set a space heater pointed to the pipes underneath the sink and eventually it started flowing again. No damage but we have pex which are supposed to be more resilient to freezing incidents. Since then I’ve dripped both sides and always treated that area with care in freezes since as that proved that was the weakest link.

I feel it’s like asking how are these ancient gigantic moving stone contraptions functioning when you encounter them hundreds or thousands of years after they were built in video games or adventure movies. Don't have a cow man.

What is the effect toward the bottom that looks like a line of circles?

It’s very difficult to reconcile situations such as mine where all but two in my immediate family are reliable red voters whose candidates want to remove rights from myself and my friends who are mostly some form of queer.
