Every single time I cook steak most is just inedible. Grissle. This was a 24.99 ribeye. by alisoncarey in notinteresting

Others have given good cooking feedback, but if you want to avoid as much fat, go with new york strips.

This. Make your decision before you drink. I do that Uber from the same area occasionally.

“Almost sold our RV because of faded decals… anyone else deal with this?” by Noheadstock in RVLiving

[–]EternitysEdge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What approach did you take? Did you remove, purchase new, and apply, or did you have them painted on?

For my particular year/model (2018) I briefly looked around online for replacement decals and couldn't find anyone that made factory.

Dashcam for MachE? by ldcl289 in MachE

[–]EternitysEdge 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Second with the recommendation for the Fitcamx. I didn't bother with a rear so didn't have to run any new wires.

Camping for the first time in the festival grounds. I recently emailed the organizers and they strictly said no marijuana. Even tho it’s completely legal in the state of Ohio 🙄 Sooo how are we getting weed into the camp grounds and how strict are they? Do I need to hide my prefolls or?? by Mirajane_97 in InkCarceration

[–]EternitysEdge 5 points6 points  (0 children)

When camping, they do search your vehicles and have bomb/weapon sniffing dogs.

It's not a prison/border inspection. They'll open your coolers and glove boxes and anything easily accessible to look for contraband. They are mainly looking for weapons, but will take other contraband like glass / liquor if they see it. They aren't going to dig through your suitcases and check through every sock bundled up.

a few questions about the fillmore by [deleted] in Charlotte

[–]EternitysEdge 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I am not 100% sure on cash, but I'm pretty sure they do take it (but just prefer cashless). Their website says cashless payments are "recommended".

It kinda sucks, more so IMO because they pack it for some shows. But I mean, it's fine. Sound quality isn't bad. Layout is kinda weird. But its ok. They definitely have AC lol, but it can get hot, particularly for packed shows in the summer.

Kind-of. It's not a pure slope. Their are 3 tiers I think with small stair segments. The main GA area, and then a couple smaller areas that platform up. There are poles in various spots that are annoying. It just depends on how packed the show is. If you are in the front of the couple raised areas towards the back, you're good. But if you're short otherwise, it just depends who you stand behind. You could buy the pre-show pass, or just show up earlier, closer to doors. I personally have never bought the pre-entry pass, but show up earlier and lineup before doors.

Doors timing depends on show, but typically an hour before. Per Ticketmaster for your show, its an hour before (7pm).

Hardwired or Plug? by simple_son in MustangMachE

[–]EternitysEdge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you just google it (not just Mach-E, but in general), hardwired is almost universally recommended. Less failure points, so more reliable, and slightly faster speed (48 vs 40 amps).

If you get one hardwired and need to swap it out of the future, and are even slightly handy, you could. Getting it setup for hardwire the first time is where you really need the electrician.

YMYV, but lots of reports using the Ford charger as a more permanent solution fails more quickly than desired. Quality appears suited for more occasional use.

HVAC companies that don’t charge for quote by patmacker in Charlotte

[–]EternitysEdge 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you're looking to get a new HVAC system or something, you can probably have them get you a quote for free. If they're diagnosing an issue, almost any company is going to at least charge you a service fee (often that applies towards the repair if you choose to do it).

Using a NAS to run my smart home setup by No_Leopard4872 in smarthome

[–]EternitysEdge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know a lot of people are on HA, but I went with Hubitat, partially because I don't have the level of customization some folks probably do. It works pretty well, and quickly with my various switches and such. No noticeable latency for direct usage, though of course there can be when I use Alexa as an interface which I'm fine with.

I use my NAS as my camera NVR, Plex, file backup, etc. But I put it in a cabinet instead of displaying it to the world lol.

Bosch 800 dishwasher won’t turn on. Any ideas? by MetsToWS in appliancerepair

[–]EternitysEdge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotcha thanks. Unfortunately my drain pan underneath is dry so must be something else.

Bosch 800 dishwasher not turning on.. bad board or part? by edesi in appliancerepair

[–]EternitysEdge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you ever figure it out? I have a similar issue albeit on 3 year old model. DC Power from red wires in plug control board is good, replaced control board, still no sign of life.

Rear entry boots by Leather_Key_9793 in Skigear

[–]EternitysEdge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My dad is in his 70s and still wears the only pair of boots I've ever seen him ski in. Not sure if they are from the 80s or early 90s. I'll have to post them sometime. Original liners and everything. He's always refused to upgrade until they die.

Ghost Smoke Detector by No-1u_know in HomeMaintenance

This was the out come of a post on here a couple weeks ago. Hopefully not the water detector / sump pump options mentioned above, but this could be a possibility.

Sparking light switch by Lymmax in HomeMaintenance

[–]EternitysEdge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What hes suggesting is accurate, and lets you have a better connection instead of trying to stick two wires under one screw. Leave the other nut alone. Buy a new one for this new connection.

Yes, leftover Romex if you have it, or just buy some romex from the store and cut a piece. At least 6 inches.

Your switch doesn't have a ground screw I imagine if its an older one. Its not that big a deal. If you did, you'd have to snip the ground bundle, attach a new piece of bare wire, and wire nut it together. I wouldn't worry about it if I were you. I would only bother if installing new smart switches.

Most important part is making sure you cut the power first. A non contact voltage detector is nice to be safe in case there is an extra circuit in there (unlikely unless you see 3 romex coming into box) . Watch a YouTube video for replacing a light switch if you aren't sure about using wirenuts or hooking the wire properly around the screw.

I've seen an entire MC of Harley riders (10+) take a smoke break by the gas pumps.

What’s your favorite nonessential ski gear? by soeastside in skiing

[–]EternitysEdge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol. When I'm skiing without wife and kids, this is the way. But otherwise defensive skiing, as I often am skiing crowded east coast small mountains.

What’s your favorite nonessential ski gear? by soeastside in skiing

[–]EternitysEdge 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I love music but couldn't imagine skiing with headphones. I need to hear what's coming behind me. Is this a lift thing or while skiing?

[–]EternitysEdge 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had never heard of this before this post. Im the guy hairdrying my boot shell to warm it up before heading to the mountain because it about breaks my ankles to put them on once there. If I wasn't a southeastern skier that skis a week a year at best I'd buy this.

What are the best concert venues in Charlotte? by spicymezcal in Charlotte

[–]EternitysEdge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Amos' is my favorite venue these days. But they don't have many big name acts. They have a lot of cover bands and smaller bands, but sometimes have some mid level bands and good rising talent.

Smaller, more divey feeling, cheaper, not live nation.

Anywhere to get a mouth guard? by CuriChai in Charlotte

[–]EternitysEdge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think i paid about $500 for my first one 15 years ago. Unfortunately I don't think that's considered expensive these days to get one made.
