[quote]The truth is you and Missouri chased the money. Then you blamed Texas for "killing" a conference you both left 10 years before us. fricking idiots. [/quote]
Missouri didn’t chase any money. They were fully prepared to take a decade or longer pay cut to leave. The SEC came in and unlike the ...

Things were already too bad to stay. Missouri’s Governor had already let it slip. NU, CU, MU, TAM, and probably KU were ready to take the first exit. Iowa, St, K St, and Baylor were preparing for a G5 future. Everyone was just ...

[quote]Missouri was in the sec championship in their first year, if I recall correctly. There’s not a lot of familiarity between OU and the rest of the SEC teams outside of Texas. Wouldn’t be surprised to see an 8-4 or 9-3 season.[/quote]

I live in a 90% conservative FtW suburb. TCU, OU, and aTm are by far the most represented. I see as many SMU, TTU, and Ohio State peeps as I do horns. TX probably owns Dallas b...

[quote]O'Rlly? What about all the other SEC, B1G, and PAC teams who successfully recruit in TX every year but never play there? We've recruited in the state of TX for over 6 decades even when we were in the BIG 8 and all the TX teams were still in the SWC, dipshit. [/quote]

OU has followed TX through every decision in the last 25 years.
They may consistently beat TX on the field, but their DFW presence is the biggest reason they have continued to be competitive throughout the changing landscapes. OU visibility is sec...
re: Fridge Tripping GFCI Breaker
Posted by Dallaswho on 6/11/24 at 8:25 am
Turns out, internet is riddled with these dual function afci/gfci breakers not getting along with appliances, much more so than just if they were on independent gfi/afi devices.
As before, as long as your kitchen is equipped with 2x afi/gfi branch circuits for small appliances, then you can go wit...

That article doesn’t even mention the PAC move debacle. Sure, it doesn’t fit the narrative of “Texas getting their way” but it did show that Texas ultimately controlled the moves of TTU, OU, and by proxy, OSU. Big reason everyone in Missouri was cool with any other home but the B12. ...

Hate being stumped on electrical stuff. I’m assuming your house is newer than 2005 or so? Or maybe recently brought up to code?
These newer AFCIs can detect all kinds of small stuff. May check wires in outlet are nice and tight in addition to circuit being dedicated and trying non GFI breaker. ...

[quote]Ironically I have the same model fridge in my garage on the same circuit as a deep freezer.[/quote]
Now that might actually be a bad idea but only if the deep freeze has automatic defrost and you get really really unlucky. ...
re: Fridge Tripping GFCI Breaker
Posted by Dallaswho on 6/10/24 at 7:01 pm
Now we are clear.
To the best of my knowledge, a dedicated fridge circuit would not need to be gfci as long as the breaker is at least afci(most new ones are) AND you still have two 20a GFCI branch circuits in the kitchen for small appliances.
That being said, it is odd. Fridges should work fi...
re: Fridge Tripping GFCI Breaker
Posted by Dallaswho on 6/10/24 at 6:41 pm
Is the breaker GFCI? Lots of weirdness going on. Is the breaker cafci?
If it is dedicated and protected with no buttons, then I’m guessing the breaker is gfi. Please confirm.
If the breaker is not gfi, then your outlet is either mislabeled or not dedicated. ...
re: Fridge Tripping GFCI Breaker
Posted by Dallaswho on 6/10/24 at 6:18 pm
If it is tripping the breaker, no need to mention GFCI.
Weird a fridge would be on a GFCI circuit, makes me think you don’t have a dedicated fridge circuit or it is a garage fridge.
My fists guess was AFCI breaker getting old but you tackled that.
If circuit is not dedicated, then you could be ru...

re: for those of you who have been to Red Rocks Park and Amphitheatre, how was your experience
Posted by Dallaswho on 6/9/24 at 10:51 pm
It’s a cool venue. The altitude makes simple tasks like climbing a couple hundred steps difficult but more in a WTF way than exhausting. Getting out of there was a disaster. There is a designated Uber pickup area that is maybe a 20 minute walk once you leave. Better to arrange transportation ahead ...
re: Wall AC 1000W Need extension Chord LCDI 6-20P

[quote]missed the 6-20P in the title. I would go with 12 Guage wire since the outlet is a 20 amp outlet.[/quote]
Agree. 14 to cheap out. 12 correct and 10 if you want the breaker to protect the cord.
No way the generator has a NEMA 6-20R. That would just be weird. Probably has a 120v 5-20R which...
