I enjoyed this post. It was helpful and informative. I chuckled when they showed pics of what’s inside the device so owners don’t have to open theirs. Thx

Samsung Galaxy cell phone with the front screen severely cracked

Samsung Galaxy cell phone with the front screen severely cracked

The worst. I hate it when this happens.

In April Dadβ€˜s Samsung stopped working. Digitizer wouldn’t detect any touch. Asked if it had a screen protector and he said Yes. Said maybe it’s the screen protector, Let’s remove it. Turns out, it didn’t have a screen protector.

Wiggles. He is bored when we watch TV and asks to go outside to potty ~ every 30 minutes. However, he can hold it for 8+ hours while sleeping.

A plate with two Belgian waffles. And two small bowls of pecans. There are way too many pecans. Probably half the amount would be too many for most people.

My wife ordered pecan waffles at a local restaurant. A) The pancakes were bigger than anticipated. And b) each pancake came with a rather large qty of pecans.

At age 64, looks like hearing aids are in my future. I struggle with conversations in noisy environments and ringing in quiet environments.

Odd. I wonder if they use chars that look like our letters but are actually some other Unicode chars. And if true, would copy-paste help you…

A shower faucet cartridge and a box for a new shower faucet

A shower faucet cartridge and a box for a new shower faucet

At my son’s house. Shower faucet needs a new cartridge and flow control insert. Hardware store had the cartridge but not the insert. Also they sell the whole faucet/valve and shower head, so I bought that for parts. Problem solved

My son’s basement floor is dirt. They keep beach sandals at the top of the stairs just for the basement. Tonight I went down in the basement. This look reminded me of a β€œcamel’s toe”

Mom & dad want a screened in patio by spring time (mid west USA). They like the style that is rectangular & attach to the house. The eaves are 7’4” high, but most screen room kits are ~8’ tall. I just learned some kits can be lowered by cutting the AL posts and redrilling the mounting plate holes

Not knowing these parts, in what ways is it not the same? External part count? Input voltage range? I’m curious. Thx.
