Re: Shooting dog in self defense - Civil Immunity
Not to derail, but the cost of animals, specifically dogs, is mentioned above already. Here's a story for future reference if dog-shopping. We are looking for a small dog, Frenchie (or like size), more or less. So, this new franchise opens locally, PetLand. Very nice place and very well kept animal...

Re: Shooting dog in self defense - Civil Immunity
I took my neighbor to court to have their pitbull declared a dangerous dog. Two times the dog came at me in my front yard and I drew my weapon. Luckily the dog stopped coming at me, both times when deputies arrived they said I had the right to shoot the dog on my property. That would have been my l...

Re: Drones
I have a Mavic Air so I follow the hobby. The mini is a good starter and get the fly more package as it has nice accessories. I had to look the specifications up and depending on frequency it is using about 1.2 miles no obstruction or interference. It will be out of sight long before that and requi...

Re: Drones
And registration is only required if the drone is over 250 grams. The Mavic mini comes in a 249 grams. But don't you still have to comply with the airspace and altitude rules? And how do you know those if you're flying an unlicensed drone. As a pilot, I'm concerned about ignorant drone flyers causi...

Re: Thermostat with adjustable cycle rate
Oh... on the fresh air settings. If it were me, I would shut them down to near no fresh air in the summer months. The high heat outside is fighting your humidity removal. During the winter, crank them wide open. What's your recommended intervals for fresh air ventilation throughout the year? I have...

Re: Thermostat with adjustable cycle rate
How long the system stays off once the stat is satisfied is a function of heat gain within the home. How long it takes to cool the home off once the system stat calls for cooling is a function of unit size. Thermostats are simply switches that automatically turn the system on and off depending on t...

Re: Thermostat with adjustable cycle rate
Unfortunately, I'd have to route ducts through the living space to get to the garage. Otherwise, I'd be all over that. The only place to dump extra air would be the attic itself. Yes, I know about the humidity thing. That's actually what prompted me to jump down this huge rabbit hole of a problem t...

Re: Thermostat with adjustable cycle rate
I'm well aware of the long term issues. Unfortunately, I had no control over the initial installation of the AC units. They are undersized because there are far fewer people living here than the house was designed for. I'm very leery of replacing them with smaller units right now because they're st...

Re: Printable Texas Administrative Code
Code books are the bread and butter of publishers by way of the most profitable books they bind, next to textbooks. Finding a full e-book format is probably going to be a futile task unless you have some paid-for service. Thanks. You'd think the state wouldn't be concerned with that but rather maki...

Re: GA: "Jogger" chased and murdered
This has been one of the problems I have had when talking to people. Most want to judge the McMichaels based on what they "should" have done, not based on the law. I do not know Georgia law well enough to say that they were 100% legal, but from what has been posted on Georgia law, it appe...
