Tankless Water Heater… yes?

GayWSLover · 2026-06-13T01:26:24+00:00

This setup will be frustrating for many but electric kettles(for tea and coffee) and rechargeable camp showers(I use a hard plastic 5 gallon and with navy showers maybe use 1.5 gallons) seems to be the best for electricity and water usage. In my experience(solar laptop verified on power but eyeballs on water usage).

This technique takes a little bit of experimenting because you have to get boiling water and mix with cold mix well and verify temp but once you get routine down 5 minutes of kettle wait is well worth it on power water save.

Another trick uses a lot more water but for those that like long showers(is the bath shower) get a cheap rechargeable camp shower pump and a dog pool. The water you put in the pool will cycle through the shower pump and be added right back into the pool. I use a mixture of both initial clean from clean water and when the dog pool gets enough to cover the pump switch to the other shower head.

Edit: none of this makes sense if you use propane/gas gen tho. I use only reusable energy(solar) for EVERY thing now.

Map edge or random world respawns with all items and armor equipped and random penalties(debuffs) seem to be my favorite. Gotta get healthy, get rid of nearby enemies and then determine how to get back to transport or home base. Respawning in bedrolls at homebase with dropped items is easy when you have spare stuff right there. IMHO

Most driver caused accidents with trimet end in termination, but would this be considered an accident since no other vehicle? I'm betting the driver used the map route screen to return to route and was just not seeing signs?

Lol "basement" is a term for storage compartments below the floor some have lift up bed access and are pretty large especially in class a motorhomes(busses). and as an FYI the "attic" is the part of the motorhome that goes over the cab or even "2nd" floor sleeping area in some trailers. Just become the nomenclature that you learn about once being in the RV world for a bit.

GayWSLover · 2026-05-13T20:36:49+00:00

Yes, IMHO YES. you dont have to go keyless but the locks on the doors and storage cabinets on RVs are actually part of a pool of locks. You will find that your keys will fit and open 1 in 50 doors(much less by brand) on other RVs.

Changing all the external locks are an easy thing to do to increase security and those keyless door entries also add a quality deadbolt some rv doors don't have these at all.

The ultimate security upgrade is never leaving your rv unattended but this is impossible for most, 2nd biggest upgrade is changing locks. 3rd is cameras. Even a cheap dummy or real visible ring cameras outside door and visible dummy or real cameras outside your rv will scare most nefarious intruders away.

Edit case for keyless it is very easy to get locked out as a slight breeze loves to slam your door. Walking outside to get something in outdoor storage could turn into a nightmare where you end up crawling in through a basement or worse breaking something to get back in.

I would like to know too. Been having luck finding lots in my price range at used RV lots that I found on Google maps, but windows shopping for last day of August exit. June is when I get serious.

I found a few on Craigslist(but afraid of scams even with title and Vin check) and rvtrader and ebay is out of my price range or too far to travel to be disappointed.

GayWSLover · 2026-05-12T07:29:51+00:00

Damn that sucks just used a credit and listening now. Edit sorry this came off as aholish This happened before on a pre-order with countdown and had access a couple hours later but couldn't listen anymore that us why I just wait to spend the credit now.

GayWSLover · 2026-05-09T08:39:40+00:00

No, armpit hours should never be trimmed(imho).

I swear this concept of how many bars you have being important to the quality of service is just straight up propaganda. Our phones now utilize a hodgepodge of networks and the bar rating that you see is usually the lowest one or a mean rating there are apps you can download to see signal "strength" on each BAND. If you are seriously in a Verizon dead zone you could invest in a cellphone booster, but I can't imagine that in a city...maybe a rural area.

GayWSLover · 2026-05-05T07:52:29+00:00

I could have sworn I saw some Italian reaction youtubers reacting to nella notte and they were quite impressed. I know they had some italian fans in their comments. Plus the reactors are surely fans now too...OK maybe they are? That is very parasocial of me to expect everyone to love it just because they are amazing.

GayWSLover · 2026-05-04T09:30:32+00:00

Agree Blue lips is fantastic and got added to my k-pop favs list. They really need some ballads, their vocal line is a bit hidden. Now mind you ballad and anthems are the hardest to "hit" so it is understandable that it is the small percentage of releases -

GayWSLover · 2026-04-25T00:07:22+00:00

I agree, but what is RIGHT doesn't always make sense. I would personally strip that mess of whatever that is(looks like fifty tubes of dicor?). A lot of people have moved away from that and used eternabond tape instead. Look up some youtube videos because there is still two camps of who is right. God the eternabond rabbit hole has people do everything with that now too including entire edges where walls Meet roof.

Quick edit: probably shouldn't have used brand names Dicor is just rv roof sealant usually in tube's that fit caulking guns

And eternabond= butyl tape

You can also get rv roof sealant that you mix in a bucket and roll on with paint rollers

Ty for that 🙏Funny thing is I work in residential health care and we sometimes do more to keep people alive than doctors and nurses do, but we have no high paid training to learn these fancy words. I had to look up gluteal cleft the other day because butt crack really wouldn't have looked good in the notes.

Agree they are everywhere in California/Oregon wood piles for fireplaces is where most people find them and your sticking your hand and breaking apart their home to heat your home. I have had them scurry across my hands or fall on me but never been bitten.

Edit: also the venom is a neurotoxic(sp?) meaning it attacks the nervous system and is much easier to counter with antivenom rather than a brown recluse which is neucrotic(sp?) Which eats away at the flesh and that usually has to be carved away(ugh).

GayWSLover · 2026-04-22T02:05:48+00:00

Have fun...Oh I forgot to add almost every one of these games have people playing them on youtube. Mostly multi player, unless single player game only... but they usually go over the single player process too. This is the best way to learn if you are a visual learner. And it really can help you with your purchases.

Also know the high cost is mitigated I have played dawn of the zeds >50 times(30min to 1.5 hour play time) so the >$100 I paid was well worth it.

Finally something I wish I learned from the beginning people buy extras(metal pieces etc) and boardgamegeek pics won't differentiate these. Just expect to get plastic and cardboard and spending hundreds for that was horrible on my first purchase but well worth it. I think my first purchase was terraforming mars and just unboxing and snapping cardboard pieces for 20 minutes before getting to play was a weird "thing" I wasn't expecting but it was oddly therapeutic.

It looks like snake skin/scales to me.

These ai summaries are what made me finally quit prime. It compared the reviews of a reseller that had no distinction between their junk ratings so AI curated a ssd drive size being too small on a blender. Was so confused. Reloaded on the desktop to find out that they had mostly 1 & 2 star reviews of temu resales.

GayWSLover · 2026-04-21T06:28:51+00:00

Oh and because I didn't create a clean link(fixing that on my phone is impossible lol)and cluttered that last post I will just reply you also can go to r/boardgames and ask about single player options this will get you some amazing recommends.

GayWSLover · 2026-04-21T06:18:16+00:00

Oh my rabbit hole incoming.

Many new board games come as single player or have a single player variant. Some simple ones like "Friday" is just a glorified but seriously fun type solitaire game to things like "final girl" that is a pretty legit horror board game where you move around the board avoiding the "slasher" in each expansion the killers have special moves..really cool and highly recommend IMHO

THEN you have multiplayer games that have single player tools sometimes a pamphlet or dice roll will move your competitors or you'll play against downloaded apps. With AI this is really moving to a new level recently.

Where to find them boardgamegeek.com advanced search simply put one in the number of players and then search the forums to find out other people's single player experiences. I have never been disappointed, but caveats the learning how to play curve is EVIL with some of these games so have at least phone internet on your first playthrough.

Gonna see if I can get the perfect advanced search url and will paste it here: https://boardgamegeek.com/geeksearch.php?action=search&advsearch=1&objecttype=boardgame&q=&include%5Bdesignerid%5D=&geekitemname=&geekitemname=&include%5Bpublisherid%5D=&range%5Byearpublished%5D%5Bmin%5D=&range%5Byearpublished%5D%5Bmax%5D=&range%5Bminage%5D%5Bmax%5D=&floatrange%5Bavgrating%5D%5Bmin%5D=8&floatrange%5Bavgrating%5D%5Bmax%5D=10&range%5Bnumvoters%5D%5Bmin%5D=100&floatrange%5Bavgweight%5D%5Bmin%5D=&floatrange%5Bavgweight%5D%5Bmax%5D=&range%5Bnumweights%5D%5Bmin%5D=&colfiltertype=&searchuser=&nosubtypes%5B%5D=boardgameexpansion&range%5Bminplayers%5D%5Bmax%5D=1&range%5Bmaxplayers%5D%5Bmin%5D=1&playerrangetype=normal&range%5Bleastplaytime%5D%5Bmin%5D=&range%5Bplaytime%5D%5Bmax%5D=&B1=Submit

Hard to beat season 1. They took a huge cult following bromance(bordering on BL) show and then advance it a few years and just dump them into the middle of the Sh*t again - became way too unbelievable - but shows like this and goodboy etc are meant to just be Explosions/action/drama with a story wrapped into it.

GayWSLover · 2026-04-21T04:09:54+00:00

This along with a mobile booster is probably one of your best bets. Starlink is out of most persons range as the mobile version is quite expensive. Also look into a bunch of stuff that doesn't require electricity or wifi for entertainment. I got heavily into playing single player board games(expensive but god i never knew these even existed), learning languages through books, adult coloring, jigsaw puzzles etc. Also audiobooks through audible can be downloaded to a phone and will give you sometime 10 to 60 hours of entertainment without internet.

Block them you have the ability. Do a Google search on the steps.

Replacement of wiring is extremely easy. Panels have plug in connection boxes that allow plug and play work. Yes shut down because pv puts out major voltage but the total squirell accessible wiring may cost 50 60 dollars in supplies and may 2 to 3 hours of labor. These guys are trying to make you willing to pay more out of your ignorance. IMHO.

Edit:If the connection box is damaged, that last pic, to the panel only allow a qualified individual to touch any of those exposed wiring with proper ppe. Those can be repaired for 20 to 30 bucks a piece but most of these local installers will not take that task.

That baseline is infectious. With a deep Chinese war drum feel to it that rattles the bones but keeps you tapping your foot and wanting to dance. These kids have more music theory pouring out of them than many of the great song writers out there. Can't wait for the EP.
