« on: April 25, 2024, 06:41:34 PM »Can someone recommend a plumber/handyman in the KC area for a relatively simple job? Just need the faucet in my kitchen sink replaced but I can't get the job done because I'm a beta city boi. I've replaced a bathroom faucet but this one may need to be sawed off since the "Anchors" that secure the faucet to the sink are "sealed" or something..cant get em off.
Vielhauer plumbing has been my go to for quite some time. They get to us quick and are inexpensive.
I redid my master bath a few years ago and didn’t want to mess with setting my own shower base. I have another plumber I have worked with a lot as well. I had both bid the job and Vielhauer was half the price and did great. They have done quite a bit of small stuff for me. 10/10
Noted! I need some small crap done like flip where the disposal is and the hot/cold are the wrong way so just going to buy a new kitchen faucet and have them do all that at once.
had these dudes out to bid what I needed and was pleasantly surprised. Thanks for the tip!
Glad you had a good experience.

« on: April 25, 2024, 06:38:06 PM »I mean, name one politician you could trust with that power?
There is no human that can go through what is needed to go through to be president that wouldn't abuse the crap out of that power.
Something like 20-30 companies would effectively hold that same power immediately upon the ruling being made. Is this not setting up the king for a day scenario, but forever instead of a day?
I didn't listen to the argument and don't know what the specific case issues are, but it seems to me like SCOTUS could easily avoid almost all the legal questions involved by just saying there is no way you can consider a president's conspiracy to undermine his own elected ouster to be an "official act" of a president. That is, quite possibly, the most ridiculous thing I could imagine any U.S. court ruling--much less the Supreme Court.
Trump's position is premised on the argument that he should only be subject to criminal prosecution if he is impeached and convicted by the senate, but if undermining the political process itself is part of the immunity then that qualification is meaningless in the hands of a tyrant, who could simply threaten/coerce/assassinate any who would seek to carry out impeachment proceedings. The democratic experiment would be over.
That may sound alarmist, but what I'm actually getting at here is "losing" this case only means that the Supreme Court declines to give clearer instructions as to whether immunity for criminal charges is ever an option for acts taken by a president. There's no way he gets out of facing charges for Jan. 6.
Unless Trump wins, I assume.

Sell individually to cater to the roughly half maga population who has lost a foot to diabeetus
These would work on either foot. You wouldn't be buying a pair of shoes, you would be buying two shoes for the price of one pair!

I just hope when the reduced stadium is done the total capacity is not announced, and Lightpole has a commercial, at the beginning of that season, where he slaps the new partial stadium and says "You can fit so many fans in this bad boy!", and still never states the capacity.
Meanwhile, KU hires a new employee, who is a caricature of a construction worker, and who's entire job is to do random construction things from Friday afternoon to the end of Sat during every home game. Just moving a 2x4 around, running a skill saw, rolling out and rolling up extension cords, digging a small hole here and there, etc all to illustrate that the next phase is coming soon. Years from now The Builder will be a mainstay as a new Lawrence character about town, and a secondary mascot to the university, as he continues to work on the second phase of stadium construction.

The process of finding McCarthy’s replacement made them look inept. This bill makes them look inept. Perhaps they realize this and don’t want to take another step down the inept ladder.

« on: April 19, 2024, 01:06:49 PM »Not really lol, but I'm not sure where to put this. CNN was broadcasting live next to the courthouse, and as they were on air, a man lit himself on fire like 50 feet away. It took a couple minutes for the fire to get put out, so we all got to witness two reporters reporting the sights and smells they were experiencing in real time.
any info on the why?

Essentially Flyertalk / Re: Tipping
« on: April 19, 2024, 10:37:31 AM »drive through scanning app. not pre orderOne that seems to be going in the opposite direction of the norm: Starbucks.
They incentivize you to use their app via free crap every so often, birthday drinks, etc. The app used to ask you, after every purchase, how much you would like to tip. They took that function away a year or so ago. So now, you pay with the app, but if you don't have cash(lol, what's that) their employees get no tip. Kinda wild.
I assume they found some legal reason to stop doing this and just took the option away before they got sued, but who knows. Given the tip environment everywhere else, this one is a head scratcher.
when you are checking out on the starbucks app it has the total at the bottom and then a little button that says "wanna leave a tip?" but you do not have to engage with that button in order to complete your order.
When you are scanning the bar code in the drive through, that isn't there. It used to be a pop up after they scanned your app, though.
am i to understand you are placing your order when you arrive instead of ordering ahead of time so its ready when you get there?
