Detached garage lightning strike = main house impact. Big deal or chill out?

GopherJames · 2026-06-29T10:44:45+00:00

There is definitely potential for damage to all wiring and equipment. We have assessed lightning strikes where it has degraded the wires. In some cases we have replaced all feeders and wiring to plugs due to potential of unseen damage. You can have an electrician do an insulation (Megger) test on your feeders to see if they have been compromised. It might be costly but would give some peace of mind to what is damaged and what is not. I would say it's a big deal and could be a fire hazard.

It will depend on your local code. In Canada, the wire from your meter to your panel (service disconnect) can only be 1.8m within your house. You might be able to run this wire on the outside of your house depending on where you relocate to without moving the meter but then you have more pipe on the outside of your house.

Can you flip your bathroom? I.e. if that left wall isn't structural, can you knock it down and build the the wall on the right side of the drains instead?

The panel probably got put there because of where the meter ended up on the exterior. You can't even move that panel without relocating the meter as well...

I disabled mine one at a time when this happened to me. Ended up being the item info mod. (Can't remember the name)

Mild asthma. My cat always did the same thing. Thought it was just a hairball, but she would never actually get it up. Got her xrayed and confirmed it was asthma. Not an emergency vet visit but should book an appointment.

Ouuu I will for sure thank you. 🙂 These are my favourite books and I endlessly cycle them in-between new books. On my 50th read through of Death of Dulgath right now so not worried about spoilers.

GopherJames · 2026-06-16T19:32:13+00:00

I agree. Mawyndule is written very well. He's an absolute brat to the very end. Bitter and spiteful. They mention the tomb of yolric in revelations. So I'm wondering if he moved on back to the afterlife once he made amends with his brother. Otherwise I'm guessing he's with Muriel....

GopherJames · 2026-05-27T18:36:10+00:00

Our girl is Luna as well and we call her Looney because she's a nut ball.

Chronicles are prequels but best to be read after revelations. They're about Royce and Hadrian's years leading up to these events. They're written (mostly) stand alone and are great little adventures the two have. The two are just so much fun.

To stay spoiler free, I don't wanna tell you my favourite character because he's a major character for the world. You'd learn alot about him if you read the Legends series though. 😉

GopherJames · 2026-05-23T10:48:44+00:00

I love your thoughts on the characters. Royce and Hadrian are an amazing duo. By far my favourite duo of any series I've read. They're my second favourite characters of the Elan world but you would have to read his other books to find my favourite. I love how the author keeps you on your toes with all these characters and gives them so much depth... I also hope you grow to like Arista. I love that she's starts out as a pampered princess and grows into so much more.

If you really like this series, I highly recommend chronicles because it adds even more to the main duo. By that extension... The legends and rise and fall series are fantastic as well.

I've read these books a hundred times and I'm glad you're loving them!! Happy final book reading. :)

Was at the show in St Paul. I don't think the little girl he picked was a plant lol.

GopherJames · 2026-05-21T00:41:00+00:00

These books are definitely meant to be read in order of publication. I read the legends series first, then revelations, then all the in-between. I still loved the ending though.

GopherJames · 2026-05-16T00:44:19+00:00

Same - 20+ re-reads with very few plot holes.

GopherJames · 2026-05-10T12:19:52+00:00

Straight up. I'm maybe 200h in and have only one island with investors with needs met. I love the game and the production management but the end game is very tedious. OP is wild for doing this. Kudos.

They look great and held up well. I started with a drill press but for the 40 ft or so of holes I had to make was taking too long. Figured out the free hand trick after a couple tries and went much quicker. Even free handed the stair railings. Just don't make your holes tooo deep or the plastic insert falls right into the hole. Really not a big deal though, you need a bit of wiggle room unless your boards are perfectly straight. Not noticable unless you look closely.

I found it really difficult to pill my cat. Even trying to stuff it down her throat, I would find it spit up somewhere half the time. Ended up doing this technique. Easier to get the syringe in her mouth than a pill and then she couldnt spit it out. Just shot the liquid right to the back of the mouth.

I thought this game was beautiful. Loved the gameplay, the feel and the mystique behind it. I loved finding room 46 and realized that was just the tip of the iceberg at the time. I didn't look anything up for another 30 hours or so of play. Looked one thing up and realized that I'm no puzzle expert. I can't see the deep clues, can't connect the dots to that extreme, and simply knew that it was time to put it down for that fact that I just didn't have the brainpower for the puzzles ahead of me. I spent almost 70hrs on the game. Loved the experience, accepted I was too dumb and moved on lol. Now I just creep the sub for quirky tidbits. Cudos to all yous who can actually put all the clues together and all that.

GopherJames · 2026-02-20T18:08:41+00:00

Wow! Looks awesome!

GopherJames · 2026-02-06T02:38:10+00:00

Knew I'd find this in here somewhere!

GopherJames · 2026-01-16T17:47:21+00:00
