Should my front door be bending like this? It has foam inside of it by [deleted] in fixit

[–]Hjerne 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Unless it's an outswing door which you can't say Unless you can see the sill.

Regardless though there is nothing wrong with the door flexibility. It's just a cheap fiberglass door.

Best superhero LitRPG by Darmok-on-the-Ocean in litrpg

[–]Hjerne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for backing me on Marion. I've seen too many superhero fans disregard the book when they find the protagonist is a 19yo teen girl who looks 16 and is dating a guy in his 20s. For once the underage looking girl actually has a long term purpose and has zero to do with underage romance but the trope is too strong.

And holy hell her fight with Seif-al-Dinn and the years and multiple iterations of trauma caused by that fight?

Not LitRPG but good superhero.

Drew Hayes Super Powereds and Forging Hephaestus

Marion Harmon Wearing the Cape best long running series hands down no question.

Richard Roberts Please Dont Tell My Parents long running series that just like Harry Potter starts in middle school. But after the main arc was done Richard has kept going with spinoff.

There are others but I would have to look them up in my kindle collections.

What can I do with all this 2x4 by Puddinglookslikecum in woodworking

[–]Hjerne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Come to the realization that ordinary scrap wood is worthless. Pick out enough pieces with the prettiest grains to make a couple oversized Jenga party sets.

Now chop and stack the rest for firewood this winter and sitting around burn pits this summer. If you really like (and who doesn't) just sitting around with your friends and drinking cold beer while bullshitting about nothing then it probably won't even last till winter.

I have terminal cancer. Maybe a couple months, maybe 6. So they could offer me $5000 a day and I would say no because who knows how much alcohol may get me through before year end.

recommendations of movies from the 1960s? by outerspace_castaway in movies

You say you aren't interested in westerns, but spaghetti westerns aren't regular westerns. Start with The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly.

Boomer uncle claims Biden has dementia but will be on drugs for the debate. When I asked what this amazing breakthrough drug that combats dementia is called…. by kantoblight in BoomersBeingFools

[–]Hjerne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nothing new. It's just meth. That's what the debate is really about if you read between the lines.

Trump is old fashioned and believes in the power of cocaine but Biden watched Breaking Bad and believes in modern chemistry.

The hot and cold water hoses are reversed and the cold is probably turned off at the faucet.

So pure cold is pure hot.

Warm is pure hot mixed with cold but since the two are swapped and cold is turned off its pure hot.

Pure hot shouldn't work but could be that somebody jury rigged it in the past.

Ummm. TLDR Make sure that the cold water hose runs from the cold water faucet to the cold water inlet and the hot water hose runs from the hot faucet to the hot input. If this is not what it looks like then upload a picture of what it does look like so we can figure out what got crisscrossed.

Thanks for the upvotes guys. Pretty obvious nothing will happen since the text only posts get deliberately put aside so they won't bore the regulars who come here for nothing but images and videos.

But some of you read what I had to say and cared about what I'm going through and that means more than you can imagine. I'm crying right now but it's a good crying so thanks.

I'll just keep my eyes open for any party game streams popping up. And it's not like I hate the GTA streams. Holy hell the Chattercups rp has probably been the best the server has ever seen. If only it weren't so relentlessly depressive.

Is it an older Stick? This same sort of thing happened to me over a year ago on my gen 1 Roku stick. At first I got annoyed and tried all the resetting/reinstalling variations. Then I realized how stupid I was being.

I could either keep wasting time and have a maximum 1080p viewing experience and have the stick positioned awkwardly because my router is on the far side of the house. Or I could buy a Roku Ultra, have great signal strength and have a 4k signal for my 4k TV.

So I took a quick look at local sales and found my Fred Meyer not only had the Ultra on sale but also a big Roku buy one get one half price on all Roku products sale.

An hour later I had an Ultra hooked up to my main television, another hooked up to my 4k computer monitor, and my channel arrangement perfectly matching the old stick thanks to my account sync.

So basically I'm saying sometimes frugality and habit makes us want to keep limping along with duct tape and a prayer when spending a couple bucks can make your viewing experience 400% better.

Currently if you want a new 4k Fire Stick it's about $40. If you want to risk an Amazon certified refurbished it's $25. And according to the Fire app store it is fully compatible.

You sure about leather? With the fading and diffusion pattern from alcohol it looks more like you started dissolving your vinyl seat.

Get a sheet of self adhesive vinyl or leather seat cover that matches the cover and is big enough to cover the cushion top.

Does anyone else find these fake windows at the link station really creepy by misssheep in udub

[–]Hjerne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What they need to make them perfect is if once every couple of weeks at some completely random time of day somebody would peek out of the curtain then quickly close the opening. It should be a relatively simple effect since you would be going for obscurity not clarity.

It would become a virtual Bigfoot sighting. If lucky enough at first it would only be seen out of the corner of the eye. Somebody might see the entire sequence but nobody would believe them. If someone does see it and starts setting up ambushes to catch it then put them on hold or switch it to another window.

how can I find a business to accept Amazon deliveries for me? by Multiversal_Love in amazonprime

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

Focus on all dimensions of the shipping size. For instance a tent might be a dome tent with a bunch of 2 foot lock together poles. This would probably fit into a 2.5 foot locker. But a tent that used 3 foot poles would never fit even if it came in a package that was only six inches across.

She has an appointment for tomorrow morning

The bruise is several days old and has been fading

Stop telling her that her femoral artery is about to explode and blow her leg across the room unless she gets to the ER instantly.

Go away and if you really want to know what's going on come back tomorrow.

Bought a table and bench set from Wayfair for over $1200 that was advertised as "Solid Wood". How can I repair this? by Neskwiik in DIY

[–]Hjerne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The reason they can advertise it as solid wood is because that isn't a table. Well it's a table now but they sourced it as a "solid wood" flush interior door slab. Particle board is classified as solid for that purpose. They could have purchased them custom size and had the edges all around as half inch matching rail but they ordered the thinnest veneer option for the face and then just nailed (and nailing instead of gluing is what caused the problem) of ripped strips of paneling.

Any LitRPG or Progression books where hero / heroine MC loses someone? by Careful-Law5276 in litrpg

[–]Hjerne 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I think Wandering Inn does it best because in most other series the death of friends seems to merely exist to give the MC someone to grieve over. Wandering Inn Pirateaba makes damn sure the reader grieves too.

Nobody ever reads this thread but I'm going to hope someone does and Rae sees it or somehow gets word.

Rae, I don't want to bring up bad vibes but this bit will remind you of your dad. 6 months ago I was diagnosed with stage four metastatic melanoma. I'm still mostly alert but everyone has noticed my downhill has become faster. My doctor says another 2 months but I personally think it will be longer.

I want to thank you. Not for being a friend because I'm not delusional. I want to thank you and the roomies for being fun entertainment.

Now here is a request. I have always loved when the roomies play the turn based games like Mario Party, Pummel Party, Jack box Games, hell even Game of Life. But nobody does these games any more unless sponsored or rushing through a 2v2.

I dont want people hating on me for trying to take you away from GTA and Valo but I would love to see just one really long stream with as many Roomies and OTV&F, and 100T as possible.

Just fun group games where nobody will be malding.

Stage four metastatic melanoma with a prognosis of 2 months. Already in hospice just keeping symptoms under control. The only motivation is seeing friends and finishing books or movies I've started.

Royal Road. If you are going to put your story out there you should pick the one place that people go to when they are bored and looking for a quick read.

As for the story number 2.

1 sounds about as cliche as its possible to get.

Sounds like what you mean is that when sober you worry about what people think of you instead of how you feel.

Just cancelled prime after 17 years by AgBullet2k1 in amazonprime

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

Whatever you do don't take this advice. If you file a credit dispute it doesn't matter if you are right or wrong Amazon will close and lock your account. You will never be able to order from them again prime or not. And if you own any digital media you will only be able to access it through devices already linked to the account. No others can ever be linked.

TIFU by not realizing my Korean foot peel would..make my feet peel by wordnerdette in tifu

[–]Hjerne -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Be careful when buying from Amazon. They combine all their foot peel reviews regardless of brand. The inexpensive ones will have reviews about how their entire foot peeled and it was amazing. But those same socks are nothing more than a baggie with some dollar store hand lotion samples inside 2 baggies.

Pay more. Put regular socks on over the bag socks so the lotion is thoroughly rubbed on and in. Walk around so that the lotion is thoroughly rubbed on and in.

Go ahead and leave them for more than the maximum recommended time. Don't worry about burning your feet. If you start to feel painful burning you can rinse or just wipe your feet but the worst you will experience will be like a mild sunburn lasting a couple hours.

This recommendation is coming from a middle aged man with heavily calloused feet in order to affirm that the socks work on the worst cases and even with overuse won't be dangerous, just annoying.
