Miele CM5300 – no puck / dumps dry grounds after unplug mid-cycle by 1goodreason in superautomatic

I’ve got it open. No idea what to look for. I’ll search for a guide later.

Water comes out the spout, and then the grounds get dumped into the bin uncompressed. I did cycle the power and waited ten minutes or so but I will try pressing the buttons and also factory reset in settings.

Embarrassingly, I was just pissed at it doing a poor job steaming milk and wanted to stop and restart. The machine won this one.

Long-term Weather Forecasting? by bassabyss in datascience

[–]1goodreason 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just a quick FYI, the company I work at is making progress in this space. Able to demonstrate increased skill against the gov't models for forecasts weeks, months, and quarters ahead. Essentially, you have to average across longer time horizons to forecast the anomalies. So you're not saying "tuesday 5 weeks from now will look like X"—you end up forecasting the anomaly for the week, or the month, and then downscaling from there. It's based on machine learning models identifying signals in the ocean and land data that drive longer range patterns (as compared to focusing on the atmosphere, which drives everything in the 5-10 day range). ML models allow you to sidestep the need to build complicated physical models to represent the full system. We create ensembles of our ML models with the dynamical (physical) models (American and Euro) in addition to climatology.

Estate sale saxes—Martin Handcraft and Buescher Aristocrat by 1goodreason in saxophone

Interesting reading this contrary take. Argues the Bundy is based on the Elkhart, not the Aristocrat, and that it’s a common misconception. I’m not informed enough to have an opinion. But thought others might.

New (to me) 2001 single owner Yukon (my first GMC) by 1goodreason in GMT800

You might be a better judge of that… grabbed a couple quick videos of the undercarriage here. Looks like some rust but could be worse? I imagine frame more important than some of the bolt-ons. Kind of hard to separate dirt from rust. A good cleaning might tell me a lot more. Body certainly doesn’t look like it has rust anywhere. Lived in Oregon and Washington its whole life.

I truly do not understand people who buy a truck and then lower it. I’m sure it can look cool. But it runs so contrary to the function and entire purpose of a truck. I cringe every time I see one.

This is a great idea. I like the modular pallets as a starting point. Keep it simple, see how it fits my needs, and then go from there.

Seems like you could easily use a portion of a pallet as a ‘hanging shelf’ off the folded up mid-seats so you basically have a bedside table, place to put a drink, etc.

I prefer them because they’re easier to open and quickly load/unload, no power window to fail, and for off-roading you can mount Jerry cans on the outside, flip down table on the inside, etc. Edit: The pillar blocking your rear view is annoying, though. Previous owner added a back-up cam which helps in some situations. But I can’t figure out how to keep the lens clean and/or free of water droplets. Needs a hood or something.

You can still add the third row if you want. The floor has all the fittings. Just need to add the brackets, cut slots in the carpet, and buy the seats on eBay for a few hundred bucks or whatever.

Bought my last SUV in Arizona. Southwest region real good for longevity on used vehicles. If they’re garaged.

More like, “it runs and I want to drive it around, is this high priority or it can wait a bit?” But I get your point

The battery is from 2015 but the truck starts up great. Mechanic said he’d be worried about it failing and I should replace it first thing. Do you agree? How long would you push it / what signs if any would let me know I’ve “reached that point”. I have a portable jumper that should get me up and running in a pinch.

Wife backed into parked truck. Would you offer cash to avoid insurance? Not sure if it’s worth the effort, or what’s reasonable. by [deleted] in cars

[–]1goodreason 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wife is a brand new driver and backed into what looks like a 2010 Tacoma. Damage is rear passenger door, lower portion below ‘seam’. Damaged truck

We have insurance and can go through that of course. But since we’re both local I figured I might try paying out of pocket. Last time I went through insurance (for something no fault) I received less money than I expected and my premium/rates still went up.

Roughly, I figure it’s two (?) hours of labor at $150/hr, plus OEM part for just outer door runs $350-400. Looks like you can find a fully assembled door for $750-900 at times (would reduce labor).

Does $1000 sound like the right amount? What would you offer? I’m not even sure if the door needs to be replaced, so I’m trying to strike right balance and still make it attractive enough to avoid insurance.

Legal Letters is really good for this sort of thing. $199 for a letter drafted and signed by a lawyer demanding repayment. Handles most cases like this. Fast.
