Grandpa needs to take a moment to learn about the appropriate use of the apostrophe.

The fix should be a fast one. Basically, they'll likely just shorten the current line, add an elbow and stub it out of the wall at the 90 degrees it should have been from the beginning. They wouldn't reuse the valve so you'd get a new one in the process.

A proper install would have mounted the elbow to a backing plate in the wall cavity so that the valve can't move around but at this point!, that would require removing some drywall so a plumber might not do that. Its not something that has to be done but just hold the valve body to support it with one hand as you turn it on or off with the other.

There's a lot to switching out that valve that could create a whole world of pain for you if you either miss the step or perform it incorrectly.

First, you need to find your main shutoff or the second you try to remove that valve, you will begin filling your domicile with water at a vigorous rate and you won't be able to stop it until you've found and shut off the main.

Second, that's a PEX line poking out from the wall and it was run like a typical builder-grade no-shits-given without an elbow or transition fitting so any valve you replace that one with will hang the same unless you have the PEX-specific tools necessary to work on PEX line.

I would very strongly suggest that you don't attempt to tackle this on your own and at the very least consult a plumber or handyperson to give you the specifics for your particular need.

I'd be quite surprised if you didn't understand the most basic psychology behind some people feeling the urge to downvote something for a reason other than it being something worthy of a downvote.

Not a showerthought.

Currently, Ghost Bikes still employs 53 people, although no further information was given on how they will be affected by the closure.

I can hazard a wild guess.

A fun little doc about your selected shipper(USPS), their corruption and pursuit of profit.

A postal worker is harassed and fired for standing up to a toxic culture. His son’s powerful documentary exposes how the USPS was systematically dismantled for profit — at the direct expense of the people who keep it running. A gripping true story of courage, corruption, and a system that turned on its own.

Since you didn't share the username/instance, we'll just have to guess since we can't look at the modlog but I would say that an instance admin got overzealous with the ban and remove all feature. I will admit that I did this one time when I shouldn't have and spent hours restoring years worth of their content when I realized what I had done.

I wouldn't say it's a bug but it is very easy for an admin to use incorrectly or withoutout care for the ramifications. It would make some sense to have a threshold time limiit as default so say "remove all content in the last day/week/month" or the admin can remove all in the event it's necessary.

It's free, open-source, and just a little chaotic.

Chaos is exactly what I'm looking for in something I have to use a multitude of times daily.

I've used desktop Linux as my primary operating system since the early 90s. I currently use Mint.

No, you don't need to make a switch if it does what you need.

You're doing great, this is just the process :). If you used a standard wood glue, you'd be best off sanding it as it's more durable than the drywall that it's bonded to. You can try some vinegar and a plastic scraper but just be sure not to dig into the wall.

If you want to sand it, you can buy what looks like foam rectangle blocks at the hardware store that has the abrasive built onto it's edges. They're pretty handy to keep around the house for projects. Once you get as much off as you're able, you can fill any divits or dimples with the putty I mentioned prior then either sand or wipe with a wet cloth.
