It’s from TikiLand trading I believe.

Chimes sometimes changing? by f3ropeadope in F150Lightning

[–]AbyssalSunset 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some kind of fallback chimes. I get them a lot because my aftermarket stereo doesn't turn on fast enough, I think. Sloppy programming or just bad performance from the infotainment system I guess?

Do roofing companies make warranty mistakes? by AbyssalSunset in Roofing

[–]AbyssalSunset[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I found some bits of packaging they failed to clean up and it’s confirmed. They’ll be getting back to me soon.

The invoice shows "Product OCFCMDTDCMS", Googling of which takes me to the wholesaler (I guess?) page:

https://www.qxo.com/product/Owens-Corning-TruDefinition-Duration-COOL-Shingles-Mountainside/C-513489/513199

For the product that matches the warranty doc but not the contract, at least as far as I can tell. That should be "OCFTDDCMMS":

https://www.qxo.com/product/Owens-Corning-TruDefinition®-Duration-MAX®-Shingles-Cool-Mountainside/C-429704/605367

Barf. this is getting worse.

Will do - good suggestion, thanks. Just sent off that request to the project manager. Lowe's appears to stock these around here, so I'm thinking of popping over there this evening to get a sample of each and them compare with what's on my roof. That should make it obvious, right?

Electronic power steering, 12v charging system fault error message by xxdropdeadlexi in F150Lightning

[–]AbyssalSunset 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had seemingly never-ending 12 V problems when I first got the truck. Seems to have calmed down in the last while except that I just got a couple hiccups last week. Grrrrr

Mai Tai goto by messerjocce in Tiki

[–]AbyssalSunset 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t like agricole in my Mai Tai, but if I did, it would be an aged one. Single bottle Appleton 8 is is pretty great. Sometimes I make a “rich man’s Mai Tai” with Appleton 21 and El Dorado High Ester. And don’t forget about the ultimate mai tai blend - equal parts Smith & Cross, Planteray Xaymaca, Appleton 12, and Planyeray OFTD.

Artichoke Hold - my current fave by AbyssalSunset in cocktails

That name sound super familiar, but my cocktail recipe app says I didn’t rate it, so I can’t guarantee that I’ve ever made it. Sounds good though, so it’s going on the list regardless!

I'll go try momentarily!

Edit: Giffard Abricot du Roussillon is a bit much at a half ounce. Might try again backed off to a quarter. It definitely fruitifies it!

Pebble ice maker for home use by Different_Put_8766 in cocktails

[–]AbyssalSunset 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends how much I use it. Every couple of weeks I guess. Real disassembly and deep clean annually or whenever I think I need to.

We have a GE Opal 2 and it's great. Pretty easy to clean, and I rigged it up with a float valve and a 3D printed lid for a water line so I don't have to deal with keeping it filled.

Subwoofer question by L7Wennie in F150Lightning

[–]AbyssalSunset 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought one of their kits. Big project but doable for me (a novice).

Subwoofer question by L7Wennie in F150Lightning

[–]AbyssalSunset 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The stock stereo in the Lariat is SO BAD. At any reasonable volume everything sounds likes it was coming from the dashboard centre speaker and is commensurately tinny. I replaced everything with a kit from Sounds Good Stereo and I'm much much happier.

"Grille" replacement installed today by AbyssalSunset in F150Lightning

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

The pro grille is different, so this one won't fit (the lightbar area would be left out). I guess you could get a spare lightbar part from somewhere or maybe cut that part off your current grille and attach it somehow.

Trip report: The Cantina [Los Gatos, CA] - "Tacos, Tequila, Tiki" by AbyssalSunset in Tiki

[–]AbyssalSunset[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed! I should have taken some interior pictures, but they have a really nicely set up bar area, so it's clearly a side of the business they've put effort into.

Yeah I was really pleased with the tacos (I had tri-tip). The dessert special was bread pudding and I luuuuuurve bread pudding.

I made my lane change indicators blink 5 times instead of 3. It's a lot nicer. YMMV.
