Why did my washing machine die AND [unrelated to it] there's a water leak in my backyard?

Plumber is here now for the leak; new washer arrives day after tomorrow. All I'm seeing right now: $$$$$$

Wish i could give you a few of my paycheck money to repair it... I am sitting at the top of Scrooge McDuck's vault. :O

Our furnace (20 years old) went fritzy and while I'm somewhat handy, the part wasn't in stock anywhere. Could have called a shop to come out (some repair shops keep the more common items on hand, but won't sell them unless they install as part of a service call, so we decided to just "chill" a few days while the part arrived. Would have been nicer if it weren't over a weekend when you're home all day, but still...we save at least $200, and that doesn't even include what we saved by not running the furnace for a few days. Luckily we live in a part of the country where it wasn't a dire issue, but low 50s in the house is still pretty chilly.

Good luck with it all, MoodyBlues.

I as well am in a country house.

Interestingly, when it comes time to renew your car insurance, and have to declare a claim, so they can shaft you, there is no category for rodent damage. Closest I could see was "malicious damage".

I read/watched this item: https://www.digitaltrends.com/cool-tech/icon-a5-innovators

Very intrigued, I went over to Amazon, but couldn't find it to purchase so I don't think it's real...

They're only available to Uber.

I managed to a nice fine crack in my Galaxy Tab A (2017) 8" tablet... it's barely a year old.

So far everything is working, but I'm going to be really upset if I have to replace it so soon.

I've seen some phones that made me think; How does that phone still work?

Was thinking of those 3m hangers, a few small items I need, stretch my legs for a bit, go outside. I should head out.

 

[dontpanicbobby]

?
Not in the Vortex I guess.

The crack is barely noticeable, and I can ignore it for the most part. I'm just worried that whatever I did to crack it will happen again and I will really break it next.

Meanwhile, I am debating with myself over installing another OS on my laptop.

That's what my plumber said, but I really can't.

I thought there was only 2 @Dngrsone? OT

 

[Dngrsone]

I thought there was only 2.

Only 2 what?

But wait, I thought there can be only one?

The insurance on my moto, dried up a few days ago, still it is okay without it right?

 

[Milo Willamson]

Depends on where you live. Many states require at least minimum coverage and in many the results of a violation are pretty draconian.

Even though the closest place is a few miles away, we do not get down there unless, its an emergency anyways. It is hard to remember why though, but it has not been lost, broken or even shattered lately... hmmm... though save a lot of money... I should get into it soon.
