Pull the boards out and swap them with edge boards.

If you don’t have backups then yes you should be worried.

Do you have a basement you can use to access the pipes?

If you have a shutoff valve under the sink, shut it off and put the connection hose into a bucket and turn it own to see if it’s a faucet issue or if the pipe is blocked.

If the pipe is blocked you’ll want to figure out where it’s blocked at and put some heat on it.

Where is your shutoff valve in case your pipe froze and split?

Turn on the hot water to that faucet.

Feel the pipe under the sink. Is it frozen?

Pipes are typically in the wall, attic, or under the home. Try to get heat to the pipe by opening the cupboard doors to expose that wall to the heat.

Turn your home thermostat up a few degrees.

Los Angeles: confusing the local aggressive driving with just driving like an asshole.

If zoom is like teams, transcription can identify you. The transcript might give you up but someone has to analyze it.

Who has time for that?

My Nextdoor app is full of local events. Maybe yours is too?

I’ve seen Nextdoor for parts of Los Angeles and it’s full of garbage, making it less useful. It really depends on how your neighbors are using it.

The dude is weird and out of touch. I believe everything he does and says is performed without any forethought.

Kids of today certainly lack a lot of “background” tech troubleshooting skills, but understand some of the more nuanced details of modern systems. It’s both interesting and frustrating to watch.

Web “1” and web2.0 was awful. Kids of that time had to troubleshoot it on their own.

“Xennials” probably have the most critical problem solving skills applicable to tech. But 80’s/90’s kids were dealing with really new or bad tech while 60’s/70’s kids were dealing with VCRs and ATMs.

That’s simply selection bias.

Some of the genx built it, but the rest of them were too old (too busy) to learn it. The kids learned it.

X86 was not built by genx if you want to get pedantic.

No. It’s bad for the economy.

Yes, “xennials” probably have their own generation because of this, but I have met a lot more millennials that can manage UI changes over genx.

Switch a genx from windows to Mac and they are lost. Switch a millennial and they seem to be fine. I’ve seen this with phones, TVs, websites, etc.

Genx were young during “dumb” tech. VCR, digital phones, etc. millennials were learning the internet as it was moving from a hobby to its own platform, cellphones as they were first widely available then as they went “smart”, and a lot of other examples.

Don’t get me wrong, a lot of knowledge was lost along the way like manual categorical systems including tabulation machines, phone books, Thomas Guides, even cabinet filing systems/card catslogs. Genx handles these things a lot better than the more recent generations.

A lot of gen x got theirs. College was paid for and was cheap, lots of opportunities while they were young, got a house, a family and are just living. They will get a fair inheritance if their parents die on time, but they are also the first to see that huge nest egg disappear to the current healthcare system.

Their vote never counted. Too many boomers.

They were the first to figure out their parents had it incredibly easy, although it took them a long time. Sometimes they didn’t see it until their own kids struggled with costs and employment.

A lot are conservative but probably because they have assets and don’t like social welfare taking from them, even though their parents set it up for them to lose.

They aren’t as tech savvy as millennials.

Whole home filter. Just a GE brand and the filters aren’t that expensive. It picks up grit that I’m sure isn’t harmful but would clog up the flow restriction/aerators and shower head. It also has activated carbon to reduce smells that may or may not be helpful.
