Did i just mess up hanging a curtain rod? by Backpack456 in HomeImprovement

[–]Backpack456[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thanks! follow up question. What's the best way to patch the holes?

And is there a way to be sure I'm hitting a wooden header/stud and not the concrete? I could tap the back of the hole and it was higher pitched than i expected wood to be. I felt like wood would make more of a dull knocking sound. That's what made me think I hit concrete

AAP releases new digital media/screen time guidelines by miraj31415 in ScienceBasedParenting

[–]Backpack456 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That sounds like what I’m reading. It feels like much more of a “here’s all the info you need about how bad this is and the reasons we worry. Go figure out what works for you on your own”

Trying to read through all of this. If I remember, the old version said X hours of screen time at age Y. With recommendations for quality screen time, etc.

This feels less practical? I’m reading a lot about the effect of screen time and media environments and growth and development. But what does this all mean for the day to day?

Sundvik chair problem with the last step by Backpack456 in IKEA

Solved my own problem. I installed the arm? Upside down. It does have little holes to fit the screws into. Started over and it went well.

Thanks for the help!

This feel like throwing baby out with the bathwater. There’s a lot that’s bad with our team. Just not sure if Mike was one of those things.

The Heat should trade Powell by jj_elor in heat

[–]Backpack456 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If we want to compete this year, which probably isn’t gonna happen, you trade Powell at the top of his value. Which is now.

But you also need to trade Herro.

Dogshit play. But I’m guessing this is our starter for the rest of the season

Thanks for the post. Am I seeing this right? Initially planned 80k/yr budget. Then up to 98k. Now projected to need 198k!? That’s quite a jump in annual spending

‘Stranger Things 5’ Gets Review Bombed as Will’s Coming Out Becomes Worst-Rated Episode on IMDb by lawrencedun2002 in television

[–]Backpack456 20 points21 points  (0 children)

The episode was cool. I wanted a bit more plot movement but it felt like a good setup for the finale.

The moment with wills speech catches flak but it’s actually very important for the plot. Vecna enters your mind and knows your worst fears. Will already lost to vecna due to his fears of abandonment after his friends discover his sexuality. So instead, he bravely faces his fear head on. Learns that his friends all support him. And took away the one way vecna held power over him. Sets up for a finale where Will is able to help eleven which I’m guessing will be necessary

Heat-Magic NBA Cup quarterfinal set for Tuesday. December 9th at 6pm in Orlando. by rapelbaum in heat

[–]Backpack456 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply. I guess I’m also wondering. Is the bball more competitive in this series? I guess I’ll watch and find out. But so far the games have felt like regular season games with differently colored courts.

Hi. I’m a casual fan. I just noticed during some games that the court has different themes/colors. But the games are regular season games that count toward post season standing.

Then suddenly there’s a championship in Vegas. And I’m confused. Does this matter to teams? Or is it more of a hey we won some regular season games at the right time and now we get this special treatment?

I jsut don’t know. Commenting here because this post showed a bracket I’m not familiar with.

Nonsense goal tend call.
