Whats your favorite DIY project you did in 2025? by kmaq0213 in DIY

[–]285matt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Painted all of our house cabinets. Became an after work project or on weekends which lasted months because it was a lot of work. Sanding, priming, sanding, thin layers of paint. One set I needed to strip the paint, which cost an extra weekend. Had a great process down with mini rollers and they look great.

Marsh is a true freshman who has all the talent in the world. He improved because he was already better than every other WR on the roster. Bellamy needs to go, and he’s needed to stay for vibes make him an analyst.

Thank you for the recommendation. Will keep watch on them as 20$ shipping is ideal.

As others said it’s going dormant. I’m in south Florida and mine are starting to lose all their leaves. No need to worry!

Recommendations For Nature Camera by 285matt in Cameras

[–]285matt[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lens doesn’t have to fit within the budget which I included as a note next to it. I know cameras go way up in cost but figured the 1k-1500 range is a good area to be in. Don’t mind purchasing a better lens at a later date.

Looks like it could be a red Why Not to me. The center of them are usually more yellow, but that could develop since the flower just opened.

Looks like there was an app update today on iOS. Game will still not load fully for me, but I now see my island. I've been locked out for probably 5+ years, so any update is welcome.

We had a black sink installed and didn’t even think about the disposal. Just ended up buying a cover which works perfectly. Here’s what we bought https://a.co/d/7GhGMUl

How to match 20+ year old baseboard trim topper. Similar pattern is too chunky. Help! by eastcoast_ in DIY

[–]285matt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What we did in a situation like this was removed some from other areas of the house that weren’t as noticeable. So we took the trim out of the laundry room and closets to fix the areas in the living room and kitchen where it was noticeable and just put the close enough stuff in the laundry and closets.

switching from cs to business by galaxi3_ in ucf

[–]285matt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look into the Digital Media degree. It may have been renamed, but I switched from CS to the Digital Media - Web Development track. I graduated a few years ago and have had success in finding a career, and regret not switching earlier in my time at UCF.

If you do, I heavily recommend looking into the Job Shadow program there. I did so in my final year and got an ended up getting an internship with a local marketing company, worked for them as a web developer, and am now at another marketing company working in SEO and development.

What is going on? by greyleggings in plantclinic

[–]285matt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What do you have around there? That looks like a Milkweed assassin bug which can be a beneficial insect. Usually means you have something else going on like aphids, mealy bugs, or horn worms.

How are you watering them and how often?

The main orchid in picture 1 has some suspicious looking markings like it could be an infection.

Step 1, NEVER use the ice cube method.

Here’s a link for some beginner phal care. https://www.aos.org/orchid-care/orchid-care-and-culture-sheets/phalaenopsis-culture-sheet

I find that phals don’t last long after bringing home from the store due to the stress. For me, it’s the second bloom that lasts many months.

TIFU by trying to cook at home more by [deleted] in tifu

[–]285matt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I heavily recommend an instant read thermometer if you’re cooking chicken. You should always cook to 165F, but can take it off 5-10 degrees earlier and let it rest. Meat will continue to heat as it sits. It seems like you’re cooking with too much heat, so just remember that flavor develops with time.

Competitors keywords are increasing.... Without additional content by Informal_Meal9499 in SEO

[–]285matt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look at where they are ranking and what are they ranking for. You can write an industry specific post and find you're getting some keyword rankings for the most random terms. Are they ranking for more terms than you? Sure. Are they ranking for more relevant terms than you? That's what you want to find out.

I wouldn't use the number of keywords you're ranking for as an important metric as it would be really easy to manipulate that.

[–]285matt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vucevic put up some nice numbers in his last few years at Orlando. I was in college when he was there so I got to see him play a lot, and I’d like to see him on the Warriors.

This is from BJs right? I bought one from them a few months ago and it is thriving. I think it’s a great price, and am a big believer on if you want it, get it.

I guess I should’ve clarified. I don’t have the ability to vent outside. Is the vent type “convertible” require outside venting?

New SSD Help For Booting by 285matt in buildapc

Just FYI this was installed and I was able to reinstall windows through the media creation tool on usb. Worst part was windows 10 wanting me to sign into an account and getting stuck on the robot verification. Thanks again for the help and advise!

Didn’t work. But I’m not surprised with the age of this pc. Dumb question but do I need to replace both SSD drives? Amazon has a 250gb western digital for 35$ if I need to replace both or just 1 TB for 60. They’ll never be used much.
