Put up own solar electric panels, once taught Advanced Math (Calculus and beyond) to gifted 4th and 5th graders, bicycled the Transamerica trail from coast to coast. Born in the TERRITORY of Hawaii - does that give you an idea of how old I am? And I look like my Avatar, except not as young or handsome. As a reminder to myself, here are my personal guidelines for Y!A: Avoid sarcasm. A sincere question shall never be considered stupid. If the correct answer is already posted, I will not crowd the screen by answering. Try to guess what the asker really needs, not just what the question says. If I'm guessing, I will say so. When voting, I will vote for the best answer, even if it's not mine. If I realize my answer was wrong, I will correct or delete it. I will be kind.

How to get wrench off oil filter?
I got this adapter cap that helps to unscrew the oil filter when changing oil. Problem is, it siezes onto the filter, and is really difficult to remove, especially when the whole assembly is covered with oil. There's no problem getting the socket out of the square hole, it's the cap that's a real SOB to remove. Any tips?

7 個解答Jokes & Riddles3 月前Internet connection for remote location?
Does a device exist to meet the needs below?
I'd like to to remotely monitor a cabin in Hawaii. There ***IS*** 3G cell service in the area, but no easy access to phone lines, cable TV, or mains power. Likely we would have some solar power, but it could be regularly interrupted.
While visiting New Zealand, we got a cheap phone at the airport, and that included about 2 or 3 GB of data (I don't recall precisely), and could also be tethered to a laptop through USB, and provide an internet connection to the laptop. That sort of thing would almost work, except that I want something that automatically connects when power is applied with no manual intervention.
NEEDS:
- auto connection with no manual intervention, once configured
- connects to 3G cell service
- 1 GB of data per month
- somehow tethered to a Raspberry Pi (linux), either USB or RJ-45
- speed of 0.1 Mbps (100 kbps)
WANTS:
- low cost (like $15/month would be great)
- powered off USB (a switching adapter for 120 VAC acceptable)
- if it has wi-fi, the ability to configure it to be off, or at least set a strong password
- month-to-month service
- ability to turn service on and off for any given month (not that important)
- more data per month, like 3 GB or 5 GB, but not if more costly
- speed of 1.5 Mbps or more, but not if more costly
NOT IMPORTANT:
- a phone number or ability to make a phone call or text
- ability to connect to 5G in the future
- ping time (lag)

6 個解答Jokes & Riddles1 年前Math puzzle: what is the probability of both candles on same piece of cake?
Saw this problem in a magazine, and got 1/8, but by messy calculations. Is there an elegant solution?
Two sisters have a rectangular birthday cake. One sister puts two candles completely at random somewhere on top of the cake (the candles can be considered points). The other sister makes a cut at random, along the length of the cake (that is, the regular way people cut, straight up and down, and parallel to the edge of the cake). What is the probability that both candles are on the same piece of cake?
Bonus: what is the probability if the cut does not have to be parallel to the edge?
