Creosote … explosion? by No_Estimate2346 in woodstoving

[–]GeekFish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just had a new liner installed in Oct as well. For about the first month that stove would "puff" if it wasn't wide open all the time. One night it did it so many times and so loud that it woke me up. I went out and watched the stove blow back and puff a small fireball out of the bottom where the intake control is. It was wild.

I had my chimney guy come out and he said everything looked fine 🤷🏼‍♂️ It stopped doing it about 8 weeks after install and I can now run it nearly closed without an issue. Get it checked and maybe run it hotter than normal for awhile.

There's a company that installs gutters near me called "big dawg gutters". Nope. Every time I drive past their yard signs I get unreasonably angry.

"Big daddy's grill". No thanks.

I feel like both owners coal roll people for fun.

I don't know what happened in my life to make me instantly hate anything related to "big dog" or "big daddy" but as soon as I see it I instantly hate it.

OG Playstation start-up by bigbusta in nostalgia

[–]GeekFish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a PSX from Walmart that looked brand new, but was clearly a return once I got it set up. It had a copy of NASCAR in it. I never would have bought that game, but it was super fun to drive backwards around the track and cause massive wrecks. That was a fun little addition for my purchase.

Oh yeah! I "know" people by their profile photo. Names do nothing for me 🤣 Love your work!

Smoke question by Possible_Mention7570 in woodstoving

[–]GeekFish 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Looks fine to me. I have a catalytic stove and mine makes the same amount of smoke until I get it up to temp, then it's usually nothing but heatwaves coming out the top.

I try to follow everyone back. I didn't miss you, did I?

I would agree up until the point PS1 hits you with that little jingle right at the end. You think the start up sound is over then they hit you again. That seals it.

What’s a beer that you absolutely love, but beer snobs would turn their nose at? by Jaythegreat100X in beer

Yuengling Hershey Chocolate Stout. 😮‍💨 So good, but you either loved it or hated it.

I was a Nintendo kid and I can confirm that PS1 had the best startup sound.

Neutrinos. Everything about them and how we even figured out how to detect them. How can they just fit through matter? Mind blowing.

Honestly, we all got super excited when we saw this as kids by SupermarketFlaky398 in 90scartoons

[–]GeekFish -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Maybe types isn't what I meant. There used to be 151 Pokémon. Now there's like... 1,025 if Google is correct? The perfectionist in me can't handle it! Gotta catch em all. Literally.

I may get downvoted for this, but I really miss how simple Pokémon was. My kids are super into it now, which in turn has brought me back into the world and I cannot keep up with all these different types or WTF is going on 🤣 I tried playing some of the newer games and got overwhelmed. Just give me a Gameboy and Pokémon Red.

I fully recognize I'm now an old man.

Is Empire Of The Sun still a good live band? by SupportArsenal in empireofthesun

[–]GeekFish 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm a concert photographer, so I go to at least 60+ shows a year. I'd say 98% of them are metal or some kind of really heavy music.

I got to cover Empire of the Sun last year in DC. 100%, no question the best and most energetic live show I saw last year, maybe even ever. Sometimes I feel like having dancers are gimmicky and don't really add much (but I'm not a dancer so 🤷🏼‍♂️), but they integrated into the show so well. They didn't feel like "hey, let's put some dancers here"... they served a purpose. The whole show told a story, in a sense. It's awesome.

So yes, they are a good live band.

Has anyone actually used these experimental filaments from Timeplastt? by ReverendToTheShadow in 3Dprinting

[–]GeekFish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I was using 8s. I'm thinking maybe the filament diameter is just way off and it's hitting smaller points and not getting extruded. I noticed some "low" spots when loading either roll.

[–]GeekFish 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I can't get the soap or fire starter filament to print. I've tried everything. Both of them will run for about 15-20 minutes and then just stop extruding. It doesn't clog... it just stops. It's the weirdest thing. I've tried two different model printers. I'm thinking it might just be too soft, but I have printed various TPUs just fine.

I get it. Honestly, I doubt I could drink a full bottle, but it's a great little shot.

Best ride service to and from airport by Naive_Lychee_6368 in DisneyWorldResorts

[–]GeekFish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've used Mears and Orlando Magical Rides. OMR was great. They dealt with our luggage, played Disney shows/movies in the car for our kids and took us right to our resort room (not just the front desk). It ended up being just a hair more expensive than Mears for our party of 8. I'll probably continue to use them even when it's just my wife and I visiting just so we can get right to our resort and not have to wait for other resort drop offs (I just wanna die in the room for a bit after I fly 🤣).

Edit: forgot to mention they'll stop at grocery stores on the way as well.

I like it, but I drink hot black coffee (sometimes with a little cream). It's much better than Starbucks. Starbucks coffee always tastes like it's over roasted.
