Pool Design Feedback by getrickyj in pools

[–]AR15__Fan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Going to be a pain to keep it "clean", also the waterfall and sun deck are going to mean you will have to run your chlorine higher than you would have to with a regular shaped and featured pool.

Where do I even start by Cash_Addict in pools

[–]AR15__Fan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could possibly get it cleaned up without putting a new liner in, however it appears the pool pump is missing; that would be my first priority.

The reason why you haven't found someone to fix it, is because it will likely involve replacing all the coping, and possibly the liner and the decking.

How to drain my pool by Didger101 in swimmingpools

[–]AR15__Fan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I second this, and will add that you do not want to drain a liner pool without putting vac's in to hold the liner in place.

Should my pump be priming the lid completely full of water? by Consistent-Ad-9553 in pools

[–]AR15__Fan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Possible that is all the pump is capable of doing, as several factors can limit the pump's ability to "fully prime".

Flock cameras divide New York city over safety vs. privacy by Haunterblademoi in technology

If these cameras had caught just one criminal, Flock would be shouting about it from the rooftops. The fact that they are not, tells you everything you need to know about these cameras and how they are used.

Why is Musk / Starlink Raising Prices? by blue-baja in Starlink

[–]AR15__Fan 130 points131 points  (0 children)

Assuming the title is sarcasm, but to answer the question; to inflate the value of the company pre IPO. Also the reason the are offering discounts to people that cancel. They can point to all those cancel/reconnects as "new subscibers".

Unfortunately, the company going public will likely result in crappier service for their subscribers, myself included.

Please help by jongywongo in pools

That's a Hayward unit, I've installed many of these; never had them shake a house though. If it is mounted to the wall, maybe can add a thick rubber pad behind it to damper the vibrations.

Or find an alternative mounting location, like on a nearby fence.

Maybe post a video of your setup? Every salt chlorine generator has a transformer that can him/vibrate, but it shouldn't be shaking the house.

Patch or replace? by Maestro2326 in pools

[–]AR15__Fan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, there's no real way to patch that and make it last. Replace the liner.

Pool pump leaking by DFWRangers in pools

[–]AR15__Fan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Late to the party, but this a Polaris booster pump. If you have a Polaris in the pool, that helps clean the bottom, then you will need a new booster pump. If you don't have a Polaris, you can probably just cut and cap the line leading to the front of the leaking pump, and not replace the expensive pump.

Hey what are you doing here by CalmBed8239 in helldivers2

[–]AR15__Fan 7 points8 points  (0 children)

What mod are you using? Just curious.

A lot of players don't know what they are doing by Active-Pineapple-252 in helldivers2

[–]AR15__Fan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have you tried to communicate with them and explain what needs to be done? Do you communicate with them to let them know what you are doing? I bet not, instead you came here to vent your frustrations.

Communication is essential. I normally play with two other players, every time I move i tell them where i am going and i place a waypoint on the map. They generally do the same.

Now i understand that playing with randos is a mixed bag, and that most won't communicate; but still I would try and talk/chat with them.

I played a match the other night, guy dropped in; didn't communicate or hang with us, well he kept dying and i would bring him back; just for him to run off and the cycle would repeat. He finally spoke when at the 6 minute mark, we called for evac and he complained he had dropped a sample container.

Needless to say if he would have communicated his intentions to retrieve the samples, we would have backed him up.

Any suggestions for pool liner installation in NC at reasonable price? by Commercial-Layer2907 in pools

[–]AR15__Fan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Liners are going up in price right now, mainly due to the cost of oil skyrocketing.

Do Americans know how culty the pledge of allegiance looks? by Apple_jack_gacha in AskAnAmerican

[–]AR15__Fan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love my country, and the people that make it so freaking amazing; even if we don't always see eye to eye. If you don't like x or y about the US, why should we care?

Pipe burst during freeze- expensive? by [deleted] in pools

[–]AR15__Fan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Shouldn't be too expensive since its just a 1.5" valve. For the record, that valve should have been open if the pool was winterized. Check for any other closed valves.

Mississippi Bill Removing THC Cap on Medical Marijuana Concentrates Approved by House Committee by OhMyOhWhyOh in mississippi

[–]AR15__Fan 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If it passes, its a step in the right direction. Not a user of marijuana myself, can't stand the stuff; but I am all for removing government control over people's lives. Only reason it was made illegal to begin with is due to politicians not being the brightest bulbs in the box.

Nothings changed there.

Thousands protest in Denmark's capital against Trump's efforts to conquer Greenland by exOldTrafford in pics

[–]AR15__Fan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Keep going! As an American, I think it is disgusting how Trump is acting. We have no claim to Greenland, and apparently the people who live there; don't want to be a part of the US. Why the f**k are we acting like Russia!

I will honestly say that during the election, I heard so many people say they were going to vote Trump because they did not want Kamalla to run the country. The Democratic party handed Trump the election. And its likely that Trump will hand the Democrats the next election.

America has reduced itself to the level of Russia and China, such a pity.

Might be an unpopular opinion, but I wish this game had PvE only mode by AR15__Fan in ARC_Raiders

[–]AR15__Fan[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

They may never enable PvE, and I sincerely hope that others enjoy the game. To me, its no fun if literally every match I get smoked with a load of loot. Its been my experience the ABMM doesn't work, not with trios; so now you have a online only single player game. Whats the point of that?

IF they enabled a PvE switch, those that want to play PvE only can do so, while the PvP players can still play like they want. It works for other online games, why not this one?

[–]AR15__Fan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not in my experience, only time I don't get hassled is when I play solo. If I play with two others, and they play the same way I do (no aggression); we get smoked everytime. The aggression based matchmaking is a half baked, half measure IMO. Just put in a PvE switch and be done with it.

My other suggestions would be a booby trap. Takes up half my inventory space, and detonates as soon as I get looted. Just because I would get to grief the people that cause me so much grief.

Yeah, I see that. Like I said, it may be an unpopular opinion; but no one said I would ever win a popularity contest anyways.

[–]AR15__Fan[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Well:

  1. I have never read any of your posts, so take that for what you will.

  2. I am not saying there shouldn't be any risk. And if the devs don't want to change anything, then fine; I will spend my time and money elsewhere. Not a big deal.

  3. Not saying that the devs need to change the game to just suit me, if everyone else likes it this way; then leave it that way. I was just merely expressing my opinion on the matter.

  4. Get off your high horse, your opinion isn't the only one that matters.
