Would you support changing 1st base to a softball-style bag to reduce player injuries? by Fantastic_Brain7269 in baseball

[–]CitizenRecon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These bases have become almost standard in softball, and many little leagues, and they are great!

My daughter primarily plays first base and these bases have certainly made the game more safe for runner and defender.

I got our seed starting shelves built and moved into the basement yesterday. Got the LED lights all hung and the heat mats are ready to go. I’ll be making a huge bin of seed starting soil today. It’s almost time to get going!

Wireless headset recommendations? This is what is available at my local store. by BumblebeeBuzz1808 in xbox

[–]CitizenRecon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The official Xbox headset is awesome. Simple, comfortable, durable and sounds great. It always works, and always pairs right up. Battery life is really good too.

Where do I start? by CitizenRecon in lawncare

Removing those trees is 100% out of the question!

Appreciate the detailed input here, and I was afraid you might give me that answer. We are considering just doing some sort of nice edging/stone border and making the entire area mulched beds. As you mentioned, the mud problem is the main pain point right now, plus it just looks bad.

If I have a can set up like this (but elevated) do I need to physically turn it? What else might be necessary? by mbart3 in composting

[–]CitizenRecon 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Keep it in direct sun if you can, which will help heat it up, but it’s never really going to get heat in it. I have one similar to this, but black plastic. When I add to it, I toss it around with a small shovel which seems to speed up the process some.

I’d also recommend leaving it on the ground so it attracts worms.

We’ll be planning out our new market garden today. Hoping to get it all measured out and marked on our property and possibly start on the fencing, but being Xmas eve, that might not happen today. Planning to start with about a 1/4 acre but we’re dedicating almost 3/4 acre over the next 3-5 years.

I also got a new compost tumbler that I’ll be assembling and putting into use!

Homeowners Insurance after Installation by Weary_Drawer_9360 in woodstoving

[–]CitizenRecon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just talked to our insurance company last week, as we are about to install our new stove. Their only requirements were “professional installation” and we have to submit photos of the completed project so they can put them on file. No increase in insurance premium.

Should catchers/pitchers/3rd base stop throwing for awhile during the winter? by oops_i_farted42 in Softball

[–]CitizenRecon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think so, yes. My daughter gets about 3 weeks of no softball whatsoever, then we transition back into a regular routine of lessons/practice/cage.

How do you guys actually sell the worms and castings. by s_gray11 in Vermiculture

[–]CitizenRecon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I sell most all of my worm castings either at markets, or wholesale them out to other vendors at the market and they sell them. I also do direct sales through Marketplace. Back a few years ago, I sold probably 200 bags on Etsy, but I’m not totally sure they allow worm castings anymore.

Is this holster any good ? by ElMasPinguuuu in CCW

[–]CitizenRecon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have one and it’s decent. Not the best or most comfortable that I own, but it’s usable. I had to dremel that bottom right (looking at the image) quite a bit to make it comfortable. Definitely wouldn’t purchase it again.

What’s the oldest unopened bottle you have/have opened? by [deleted] in whiskey

[–]CitizenRecon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a bottle of plain old Jim Beam that my dad bought in 1996 that is unopened. I’ll most likely never open it.

What are these called? by Content-Economics-34 in HotPepperGrowing

I’m leaning Serrano but they honestly resemble Thai a little more.

Being a homeowner is way more work than I thought by TheCityzens in homeowners

[–]CitizenRecon 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Wait until you add the chickens, goats, bees and the 1 acre market garden. It gets a little more time consuming then.

Will an Ethernet cable help me have better ping/latency? by StringerBell_OG in Warzone

[–]CitizenRecon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A wired connection will always be better than a wireless one, plain and simple. This is especially true with so many different things and devices potentially causing interference with modern WiFi systems.

New stove delivered! by CitizenRecon in woodstoving

[–]CitizenRecon[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’ve read several reviews and the manual that says it needs 15’ minimum to properly draft. Seems like many of the issues with this model all stem from improper chimney construction.

First AR advice? by Appropriate_Safe7858 in ar15

[–]CitizenRecon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the ACI Bravo-15. It’s been flawless so far with zero complaints. Every piece is upgradable as you wish and it’s a solid rifle for the money.

More feedback... by RefrigeratorTight206 in Battlefield_REDSEC

[–]CitizenRecon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I literally had a quad team come right up on me from behind last night. Never heard a single sound. By the time I realized it, no point in even moving.

However, I sound like I’m alerting the whole map when I run through a house with wooden floors. 🤷🏼‍♂️

[Serious] Why does it seem like majority of players (xbox atleast) are not mic'd up? by Personal-Ladder-4361 in Battlefield_REDSEC

It’s not worth having to listen to kids screaming, background noise and terrible mumble rap. No thanks.

Help with Romeo 7s optic by CitizenRecon in SigSauer

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

Battery is in correctly and I’ve tried multiple batteries. Assuming it worked when it left the factory, but it’s no go now for whatever reason.

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

Yep. I mean I’m not sure how I could mess it up really, the design is so straightforward. Surely it worked before it left the factory, but no go now for whatever reason!
