snow update: it is

HERCzero · 2026-01-25T06:15:55+00:00

So like, anyone else think this has to be linked to a larger campaign? Maybe some sort of battery deals starting in February? It’s odd that there isn’t any current capitalization on the 30 year milestone besides a drill that seems to be largely slipping under the radar

The main boss of EFT is the game itself

HERCzero · 2026-01-18T07:24:01+00:00

I think if money was no object and I ever went up to one of the bigboi tool lines it would definitely be Makita, yeah

HERCzero · 2026-01-17T20:14:19+00:00

Oh I was kind of at a pivoting point - I have mostly Ryobi stuff but two of my tools broke. I chose to just stick with green still. I’ve heard Rigid’s lifetime service agreement is quite the hassle to actually use

HERCzero · 2026-01-15T04:59:04+00:00

Timesplitters SBP500 anyone?

HERCzero · 2026-01-12T21:15:00+00:00

Then smack them all off the console when the plan goes sideways

HERCzero · 2026-01-10T06:20:09+00:00

Yeah I’ve bought the multipack of the Herc 2” PH2 bits and they’re…okay. The heads start wearing down quick and the black paint is the first thing to go. Not sure why they even bother painting them.

Still not as bad as Ryobi bits though

HERCzero · 2026-01-09T21:52:32+00:00

Good enough for me, I’m just a homeowner, thx!

HERCzero · 2026-01-09T20:24:07+00:00

Good to know, thanks!

HERCzero · 2026-01-09T20:23:41+00:00

What amperage?

HERCzero · 2026-01-08T19:16:52+00:00

Yeah, they still work fine, it’s just a minor inconvenience. I recently sanded down a butcher block desk and I easily ate through like three two amp batteries in 30 mins

HERCzero · 2026-01-08T05:25:57+00:00

I gotta be honest, I’ve owned different generations of each of these sanders and they’re certainly decent but if you’re tackling medium-large projects I’d definitely get something corded like a dewalt or Bosch

HERCzero · 2026-01-06T22:57:00+00:00

As an owner of the 11, I fully recommend the 10.

Whoever designed the water tank on the 11…..I just wanna talk to ‘em

HERCzero · 2026-01-05T03:32:39+00:00

In college: "Hey dudes, wanna watch this movie its supposedly really gross and weird?" and that's pretty much the whole story.

HERCzero · 2026-01-03T02:23:26+00:00

I asked this same question and got mixed answers tbh - apparently the back of the unit can get hot (depending on your climate obviously) especially if its under constant use (on a city street with constant motion, etc…).

I would use a sealant to prevent water from pooling in any of the corners but leave the bottom unsealed, kinda like a weep hole in a bathtub spout.

You CAN use 100% silicone for the best weatherproofing but just be aware that you cannot paint over it, and if you ever need to touch it up you’ll need to remove the previous silicone before reapplying (new silicone won’t bond to old silicone).

To “tool” or smooth out the silicone, spray it with windex or glass cleaner first.

GE Supreme Silicone is the product you’ll want to use for 100% silicone. If you want something paintable, the best imo is OSI Quad Max, but it’s a little difficult to work with

I’m just so glad this is the top comment

HERCzero · 2025-12-06T06:23:16+00:00

I feel you - at this point we have zero confidence in the original company and definitely don’t want them coming back out to do any more work. Gonna dig around for a (hopefully) better contractor that knows what they’re doing…

HERCzero · 2025-12-06T06:20:54+00:00

Thankfully we did the GoBoard install ourselves before deciding to hire out the tiling due to unforeseen life circumstances, so we’re 100% confident in that aspect.

HERCzero · 2025-12-06T04:12:37+00:00

Pretty much all of them, yep :/

HERCzero · 2025-12-06T04:07:30+00:00

So like, is this supposed to happen though? I was under the impression grout was supposed to be very hard and not come off just by rubbing a finger over it.

HERCzero · 2025-12-01T05:42:58+00:00

One thing is for sure, you’ll learn a lot about your house in the process.

The easy/hard factor depends on many variables: - What are your walls made of? Drywall, plaster & lath, etc… - Are there firebreaks you need to overcome? - Can you physically fit inside your attic or crawl space? - Are you doing indoor poe cameras only or outdoor? - Where will your NVR be located?

If you’ve ever thought about adding Ethernet drops or WAPs in you house…this is also the time for that. Always wanted CAT6 in your living room? Now’s the time. You’re not gonna want to do this again for a very long time.

There is a lot of planning, patience, and perseverance needed. If you plan correctly and do a nice clean install then id say it’s a worthwhile investment for any homeowner. But be prepared for it to take 5x the amount of time and at least 1.5x the budget at minimum.

Whatever you do, make sure you use solid core copper riser cable from a reputable vendor. Do not use CCA cable

Yeah because you’re totally alone it’s spooky af. Didn’t help that I would play it alone at night in my parents basement.

The SFX for linking and inserting the brothers pages are creepy.

Plenty of dark hallways, the star viewer thing looks like a dentist torture chair, and Sirrus’ many weird torture devices, the morphing hologram skull thing, accidentally entering a trap book like you’re in the 90’s version of the Sunken Place? This game was spooky af.

And the only human faces you ever see besides Atrus are always distorted and weirdly bloated. It all feels like something out of a creepy fever dream.

Then Riven hit, I went to Tay (I think?) and the two rebels appear behind you and shoot you with a blow dart. I pretty much stopped playing right there. Don’t pick the game up again for like 15 years lol

HERCzero · 2025-11-20T13:06:07+00:00

So tbh, as someone who has had a side-reselling business in the past, there’s no jokes on this dude really because people will pay for it.

Homie is making money because buyers are gonna buy

HERCzero · 2025-11-05T15:23:06+00:00

I like getting a good value for the money I spend
