This may be a dumb question, but we have an office where me and my wife like to sit and study and that room during the summers can get quite stuffy. We live in TX and our HVAC isn't the best but it keeps that room closer to 76-77 in that room even though we have it set to 72 in the house. It's one of the rooms on the far end, however we do have a ceiling fan running 24/7 in there just to make it more comfortable. We have a Levoit pet 350-P in our bedroom, but wondering if I move it to that room, would it help increase the comfort via air circulation?

I'm making this post because honestly some of these guitars are beautiful looking but of course they are quite expensive. I currently have an old fender strat and a Martin acoustic. I want to own a telecaster at some point (Springsteen!) but the finances are not there. Is it truly an inferior experience or is it just people get used to a "lifestyle" of higher quality guitars? Just curious as to what the pros and cons are to owning a budget guitar? I have a squier strat that was bought off FB but unfortunately sometimes the neck feels rough from the sharp frets. Just wondering everyone's opinion. Am I better off waiting until an opportunity comes along?

I currently own a Pixel 7 that has long been paid off, however the only discount that I am getting is where you request a pin to transfer out service. I think at one point I verified that I was a student and that same month they got me down to $60 but for some reason that only lasted a month. If I am a single line and I don't need any extra stuff other than typical phone service, what can I stack for discounts? Can the student discount stack with anything else? What should I appox. be paying per month? Will it help to call a service agent on their hotline? Sorry for so many questions, but it seems confusing that there is no universal way to get your bill down.

I'm building some basic closet shelves and I take the tape measure and pull more than needed and measure the span of the closet. Some of my cuts end up with a bigger gap than I intended and I don't understand why. Especially if I'm going to put 3 cleats and then a platform on top, I measured and it seems like it's 58 inches and 13/16th. When I bend it in the corner, it doesn't lay flat against the wall so I usually approximate. Is there a trick to it?

Edit: wow! I was not expecting this many replies when I woke up!

I have been applying for jobs for a while while working part-time and going to school (3rd year EE degree). Recently I was called back for an interview for an electrical engineering technician job but I'm having trouble differentiating the duties of what I would be doing on a day to day basis. The pay lands between 80 to 90k according to the job listing, but should I just accept the lowest since I have job history but not in this field? It is for a major company that produces doors and windows for residential houses.Also, would this make going to school more difficult since it will be a full time role? What is expected from an EET vs an EE? Thank you guys! Still learning about the field.

I have a 2023 Nissan Altima that I bought used about 2 years ago. As far as I know, it's been taken care of and I have done regular oil changes on it as well as the basic engine filters/cabin filters. It's currently at 54k miles and within the past month I've noticed when braking, I've felt slight grinding in the pedal. The steering wheel is not vibrating or anything, just the slight grinding feeling, but not noise. When I look at the rotors they still look super shiny and feel smooth with no grooves or anything on them in the front. Would it be okay to replace with either Bosch or akebono brake pads, or should I be doing the rotors as well?
