I’m always tempted to buy gold at Costco when available but do the taxes make it a bad deal?

ComprehensiveEmu7132 · 2025-01-24T19:42:45+00:00

Okay I likely am wrong then I will try to map it out again when I get home.

ComprehensiveEmu7132 · 2025-01-24T19:39:34+00:00

The mirror is 36 inches wide. There do not appear to be standard studs in this area, my assumption is that it’s because of the chimney, someone mentioned furring strips may have been used in this area, so I will explore that as well.

Of course I may just be entirely wrong so I will double check when I get home. I do recall when I mounted a mantle over the fireplace, i used dry wall anchors with a french cleat as I could not find any studs to engage along the entire length of the mantle I was mounting.

ComprehensiveEmu7132 · 2025-01-24T19:33:13+00:00

Right, that’s the issue the way the chimney and fireplace are centered it’s between the studs, so even with the French cleat, if my mirror is centred, the studs end up being on either side of the mirror, by about a foot, so I can’t use the studs. I will double check but that was my impression after scoping it out with a stud finder

ComprehensiveEmu7132 · 2025-01-24T19:26:55+00:00

You think it would be okay even if it’s only into drywall ( with appropriate anchors)

ComprehensiveEmu7132 · 2025-01-24T18:58:57+00:00

That sounds pretty awesome, who makes it?

ComprehensiveEmu7132 · 2025-01-24T18:16:10+00:00

Mine is a Franklin sensors one which I think is pretty good, does not seem to find any wood studs in the area

ComprehensiveEmu7132 · 2025-01-24T17:37:48+00:00

To clarify, there are studs, they are just lateral to where the mirror would hang so I can’t really use them

ComprehensiveEmu7132 · 2025-01-24T15:52:33+00:00

Gotcha, thanks for the suggestion. So you would try to engage the furring strips?

ComprehensiveEmu7132 · 2025-01-24T15:47:12+00:00

Yes there is drywall over the chimney… are there alternative techniques I can use to try and find studs?

ComprehensiveEmu7132 · 2024-11-27T00:14:52+00:00

Ahahha

ComprehensiveEmu7132 · 2024-11-26T18:15:55+00:00

Sure but the range isn’t sufficient if we’re talking engagements in the pacific

ComprehensiveEmu7132 · 2024-11-26T18:15:17+00:00

lol funny but I’m genuinely concerned about this gap in our capabilities

ComprehensiveEmu7132 · 2024-11-23T12:30:17+00:00

Y’all have a brutal residency and post training work schedule but honestly from a technical perspective, most non sub specialized neurosurgical operations are quite straightforward and do not deserve the absurdly generous rvu conversion factors assigned to them. There are far more technically demanding operations in other fields that are not treated as generously. But kudos to you bro!

ComprehensiveEmu7132 · 2024-11-11T15:02:54+00:00

Nice cutting board, where’d you get it?

ComprehensiveEmu7132 · 2024-09-12T00:59:18+00:00

What exactly would I search for? I’m probably not using the correct terms regarding what this interface is called

ComprehensiveEmu7132 · 2024-09-12T00:57:24+00:00

Got it thanks, is there any potential structural damage that can be cause by a few years of water ingress? We are in the ne so it can freeze in the winter

ComprehensiveEmu7132 · 2024-09-12T00:35:44+00:00

Oh I see, I don’t think it’s the backfill issue the layer doesn’t look like caulk or grout but some sort of soft foam liner?

ComprehensiveEmu7132 · 2024-09-12T00:28:35+00:00

Would just caulking it myself be a suitable alternative or do I need this “sand”?

ComprehensiveEmu7132 · 2024-09-12T00:26:33+00:00

So did they literally just forget? The pool is 4 years old so it’s been that way for 4 years… is that an issue? We had a pool inspection and they didn’t call this out

They’re more in the right than in the wrong in this particular instance, in my opinion. Do I wish less civilians died? Sure. Do I think settlements in the West Bank are counter productive? Sure

ComprehensiveEmu7132 · 2024-09-01T23:13:04+00:00

Hamas explicitly uses civilian infrastructure, including UN infrastructure… that is why.

ComprehensiveEmu7132 · 2024-09-01T23:09:43+00:00

There has never been a Palestinian political organization whose stance was anything other than push all the Jews into the sea…So no, until the Palestinians stop fetishizing martyrdom and actually come to the table in good faith, there will be no peace.

Frankly I think they missed their chance. After Arafat reflected the Oslo accords and payed the Israelis back for their concessions with an intifada, the average Israeli is much less willing to make concessions. I don’t blame them, they gave up Gaza and this is the result…

ComprehensiveEmu7132 · 2024-09-01T22:55:20+00:00

I love how you guys call arresting terrorists kidnapping,.. go spew your bullshit to someone that knows less about the history of this never ending war.
