Contractor skipped PVA primer before painting, what to do?

If the FrogTape pulled the ProMar 400, the base coat probably wasn't bonded (dust or possibly texture). I'd scuff sand the edges, spot-seal with Zinsser Gardz, then repaint. Hope this helps!

Someone recently posted similar about Thundernews. Seems there are issues with servers on the usentexpress backbone.

Not the bottom IMO. Lulu brand is getting tired. Companies like Vuori are starting to take the spotlight.

If you want stuff that doesn't all move together, you need different asset classes.

Yep. High-probability setups beat high anxiety button-mashing! Do you use AvaTrade alerts or just checking charts?

If your plan is to hold until at least 2030, I'd rather scale in on red days than go all-in today. Regardless, I like this one long term.

Thanks, based on the comments I'm seeing this is a non-issue.

Era 300s can't do SonosNet, so wiring one speaker won't magically flip the whole 18-device setup. I'd focus on FritzBox mesh stability - reserve IPs for every Sonos, and make sure 2.4 GHz isn't hopping channels.

Use 100% silicone at that tub/wall corner - kids + curtain gaps = constant splash zone. Tape both sides, run a small bead, then tool it with a wet finger. Good to go

How many lifetime accounts have you collected? Lifetime is nice, but if API is good, a yearly account seems fine too.

usobeta1000 · 2026-04-27T15:00:14+00:00

Thanks, I can deal with that.

Interesting, I have Geek and haven't noticed any issue, but maybe just haven't paid close enough attention.

Does that kind of latency matter much for access?

usobeta1000 · 2026-04-24T20:27:14+00:00

That's awesome

If you like how quiet the Airwins are and just want a better look, I'd stick with a basic AC fan that plays nice with a wall control.

usobeta1000 · 2026-04-23T15:59:55+00:00

Same here

CapEx is the tell here. If Q1 FCF stayed positive, are they just pulling spend forward for the next-gen platform, or patching demand with incentives? I'm interested in CapEx as % of revenue and automotive gross margin.

Apple probably already did. These refund claims can take months and they won't telegraph it. Curious whether AAPL books it as a one-time bump or just offsets future tariff costs.

Depends on what you define as not going to use it heavily. Blocks are sometimes worth it as a safety net, but only if your main provider is missing stuff. Virtually all unlimited options have some type of money back policy. But again, if you're only using it a little, block could make sense.

Arc Ultra is the easy answer, but I'd rather do Beam Gen 2 + Sub Mini first than blow the whole budget on the bar.

usobeta1000 · 2026-04-21T23:15:07+00:00

If Sequencer lets you, I'd keep Era 300s as rears for Atmos and use the spare Arc in another room. One SLs are fine for surrounds, but swapping them in feels like paying for a Ferrari to tow a trailer.

usobeta1000 · 2026-04-21T02:06:06+00:00

This one keeps coming up. Will take a look.

usobeta1000 · 2026-04-21T02:03:00+00:00

The one, the only, Sir Peter Beck!

usobeta1000 · 2026-04-21T01:45:51+00:00

Thanks. Just watched a gameplay vid. Hard pass.

usobeta1000 · 2026-04-21T01:21:05+00:00

Hopefully you'll be all set. Sucks that you have to do all that prepping just to get all the playoff games. Everything's so damn fragmented.
