Saved me $300 - what a great site! my dishwasher stopped working and after I made a few phone calls to a bunch of local repairmen, most wanted $60 just to come to my house and estimated the total repair would be around $250. I googled the problem and landed on fixya and saw several similar issues. I decided to post my specific question and within 15 minutes got an answer. All I had to do is reset the pump valve and since then it works like magic! Thanks Fixya, you saved my day (and bank account:)

Either sketchy or out of business I posted a question even though the interface was weird, said simultaneously my question was too long and not long enough.

Glad I didn't pay anything but jeez take down the website please.

I posted a way to give Yahoo mail users a simple way to change their display language via the address bar and the question and answers were deleted.

It may be a useful tool but... It may be a useful tool but for me, pc slowed slowed down and froze. Had to clear out cache and as that became a regular thing on visiting, I no longer use them. If it is too good to be free, then its not! Not keen on their cookies and stuff as I believe it was seriously affecting my pc.
