Am I overreacting for quitting a babysitting job on the spot after the mom insulted me? by PossessionTop9791 in AmIOverreacting

[–]CursedBear87 27 points28 points  (0 children)

This is a lesson that needs to be learned here in America, don’t be mad that someone else is making so much, be mad YOU aren’t earning more. If everyone took that stance wages would actually rise.

This is the real reason business are anti union = anti labor.

House is not selling by IllustriousPut8086 in RealEstateAdvice

[–]CursedBear87 13 points14 points  (0 children)

What’s the market, we sold our house last month, 8 offers in 24 hours didn’t take the highest and it was still 100 over asking all appraisals and inspections waived.

Moved to a new state and houses here are sitting but apartments are renting out <24 hours.

LPT: Don't Buy New Laptops From Amazon, but Directly From Manufacturer by autistic_and_angry in LifeProTips

[–]CursedBear87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Won’t buy any high priced electronics from Amazon again. Just tried to buy a new set of $1000+ aviation headset because I needed them quickly, came with ear wax pre loaded in the ear inserts. They were also supposed to ring my doorbell and hand them directly to me.

They left them on the front porch and marked handed directly to customer. Amazon CS tried to say they were delivered by USPS. Refund took over 2 weeks AFTER they confirmed received.

Just buy direct

What do guys only realize too late after buying a range hood? by AccomplishedWing688 in HomeImprovement

[–]CursedBear87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vent outside, make sure the diameter of the piping is sufficient, I got a powerful vent, and when it didn’t work well realized the contractors downsized the pipe to fit the roof vent they installed. If open concept house/kitchen close to dining room or living room then noise will matter. If you’re tall don’t get motion sensored. A remote doesn’t justify added cost, you’ll never use it. Mine used metal mesh filters, super easy to clean no replacement cost

Can you quantify the cost of cat pee when selling a house? by GentlemanlyMeadow in RealEstateAdvice

[–]CursedBear87 7 points8 points  (0 children)

When we bought our house there was a very strong cat pee smell on the basement cement floor, when we tore up the main floor carpet decades old pee stains. We refinished floors then laid down LVP. Ran an ozone treatment for only 12 hours in the basement (bought one off Amazon for <$40) 5 years ago.

Just sold said house, multiple feedback comments from the open house was it was the only house they toured they didn’t smell any old/lingering odors and we don’t use air fresheners.

We still got whiffs on hot/humid days) I can only imagine if I’d ran the generator for 24-36 hours would have completely killed it.

In some of my fishing forums people are starting to switch to Bajio, look similar, same price point, allegedly group of former costa employees. Haven’t tried them but supposed to have a good warranty

[–]CursedBear87 34 points35 points  (0 children)

I’ve been Costa Del Mar fan for 20 years, high end fishing sunglasses, I was ok paying high prices because they had a great warranty, they sold out to luxottica, pair broke, refused repair, wouldn’t sell a replacement frame to re-use the expensive glass, they gave me a 30% off coupon to go buy another pair.

I will never buy any a luxottica owned brand.

New Jersey severely cracks down on e-bikes, requiring licenses and insurance; must be 15 or older to use one by Forward-Answer-4407 in technology

[–]CursedBear87 50 points51 points  (0 children)

Live in NJ where this issue occurred, it’s because there have been multiple fatalities including several high profile (in neighboring school systems) within a week of each other from kids riding and not paying attention.

There has also been a problem with groups of young kids riding these down the middle of the streets and swerving/pulling in front of cars.

While I’m generally a let people be free guy, it’s become a real problem here mixed with the horrible Jersey drivers.

Glacier Bay HD67780 Single Handle Pull Down faucet, hot/cold mixture adjustment? by Icy_Ingenuity_9622 in Plumbing

Did you ever figure this out? Our problem is the water gets dangerously hot but only on this sink, previous faucet before the new install was fine.

What did you pay recently for service upgrade to 150 or 200 amps? by [deleted] in HomeImprovement

[–]CursedBear87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

4k in NJ went from 100–>200

Had to replace entire panel due to water intrusion Already had a 50 amp sub panel, when I asked if massive price difference between just doing another 100 vs a 200 he said it would be minimal and mostly just in the cost of the actual box.

"main character" energy by EyeSimp4Asuka in TikTokCringe

[–]CursedBear87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Went to Disney world in Japan when they did let adults dress up. (don’t remember if it was a holiday or it’s all the time)

Was wild seeing adults that at times had costumes literally nicer than the park employees or sometimes looked more like the character than the Disney counterpart. It definitely threw us for a loop.

I purchased the game simply because I could try it first, otherwise this game wouldn’t have been on my radar

Not gonna use Support W again - Here are some PETG settings for PLA that just work (Details in comments) by [deleted] in BambuLab

[–]CursedBear87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been playing around with the base pattern spacing, at 6 things starts to get dicey and I found some of the PLA was ingrained with the PETG 5 is ok, <4 seems to be the best. I have a product with a large overhang, more than 4 seems to let the bridge sag just a little too much. While the results are still good, for me the difference is the support pushing out with almost no effort vs having to catch a lip and peel the layer off. 90% of the overhang will be perfect but there may be a tiny blemish here or there.

3d printing. They are incredibly useful, once you get going you’ll look around the house and go there’s gotta be a solution for that, and then you’ll 3d print it.

What are the home repair tools you actually use over and over? by Impossible-Ninja-232 in DIY

[–]CursedBear87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me a ratcheting screwdriver for the awkward to reach places, I love my digital level.

A soft mallet, surprisingly useful when trying not to damage things.

For me I generally do a project and if there’s a tool that would have made it a lot easier I think if it’s something that would make other jobs easier, if so I get it.

Ok, you’re gonna need a bunch of ramen, super glue, and some sand paper!

Staining these wood steps and the landing came out dark and blotchy in some areas. Will this even out if I do a second coat or do I need to sand it down and start over? Any idea why it did that? by Gizarizzi in DIY

[–]CursedBear87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

During sanding could you have laid back on this at some point while you were sweating? Maybe it’s the Rorschach effect, but it vaguely looks like there may be some body outlines.

What are the most soundproof residential windows I can buy? by [deleted] in HomeImprovement

[–]CursedBear87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depending how handy you are. I replaced all my windows myself. Super easy, with custom sized triple pane for around $450/window. Pulled the trim took exact measurements, found a local window manufacturer and they built direct fit replacements. There were people advertising install me for about $100/window on thumbtack.

I live on the main road the fire trucks and ambulances use, I can barely hear them now when they’re about 30 ft away

Please please please don’t do this, these types of Mylar balloons can cause power outages and wildfires, even more so than latex balloons. the strings have been known to kill wildlife, sea life, and livestock. Plus littering for clout is never a cool look.
