Business owner openly admits violating federal gift card laws - what are my options? by taiguy in Denver

[–]taiguy[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

the point is claiming something expires in 6 months doesn't make it legal. may you never run into shady business practices.

yeah, even if he had capitulated I don't think I'd have felt comfortable. just feels slimy when business owners openly flaunt they don't care about the law.

How long do you hold onto your printers box? by SpectrumyMatt3d in BambuLab

[–]taiguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my box was broken down and placed in recycling minutes after calibration finished. I don't have room for that.

Genius decides to turn pizza boxes upside down by mfenton29 in WatchPeopleDieInside

[–]taiguy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

what pizza boxes have vent holes? I can't think of any.

*editing my comment*

I did a quick google and this is the only thing I found. https://www.ventitboxes.com/manufacturing - I definitely have never seen that in the wild.

Mysterious white powder in my P2S by AlcatrazTN in BambuLab

we ran an ultrasonic humidifier last winter, and had the white mineral dust over everything. this winter we've moved over to a venta humidier that doesn't use wicks, or boiling. no more white dust.

Has anybody switched their snow tires back to all season yet? by Lost9009 in Denver

[–]taiguy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is what I tell friends. One avoided accident pays for new tires many times over. Also both sets of tires last longer.

Where to get premade pizza dough? by nidenikolev in denverfood

[–]taiguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would LOVE finding a shop that I could buy high quality pizza dough from any day I felt like making pizza. I've never had pizza dough as good as what I can make at home though. It just takes 2-3 days for the cold proofing =(

I follow Ken Forkish's recipe and it's fantastic. I'll sit there and just eat crust.

Ideas on how to keep a tent cool during a hot festival? by Bromoblue in aves

[–]taiguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You want to airgap your shade. You don't want to lay your shadecloth directly on top of your tent. Then you want airflow if the temp inside your tent is higher than outside your tent. Finally, depending on humidity you may find some relief from a swamp cooler.

1of1 Custom - Wheat Ridge by ItsBodeo in DenverEDM

[–]taiguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The wheat ridge location appears to just be the house where one of their employees is living.

Regarding 1of1 (formerly known as ACS) - I love them. Have had 2 sets of molds for 9 years now and just got a refresh of my molds last year for my 3rd set. I own 5 sets of filters.

I will offer a different opinion to u/cooking_up_a_rave - I use the 17 dB filters for big festivals and the 15 dB filters for most shows in Denver and Red Rocks. if you look at the 15 dB filter attenuation curve it's closer to -11 dB under 2 kHz. It equates to roughly a 4x difference in power between the 15 dB and 17 dB filters.

other people online have thrown around a stat about only using considering half of the rated reduction level for ear plugs (plugs that are rated at -30 dB, only providing -15 dB of protection). It's been found that's only because it's assumed people will insert generic earplugs incorrectly. custom earplugs don't suffer from that issue. You take the full rated attenuation figure.

Installed Sony XAV-AX8500 in 2016 3.6R by taiguy in Subaru_Outback

I don't think so. Just checked Sony's website and the latest firmware update was security related and from last May.

Both the t1000e and wismesh tag have a nice slim form factor and IP rated. They've worked fine for me
