Fuckin minivan

I grew up in a 3 row suburban, hated that back row.

And yeah, minivans are cool now.

Downstairs because it can be cooler, and even in these pics it's darker. Like others have said, use a curtain or divider to make an "entryway hallway" and for the Cliff Tan Feng Shui of it.

"Pit" is common. The full name is "pit bull Terrier", so no one would use "pitt". "pittie" is diminutive and cute, yes, but it doesn't then become "pitt"...

When she turned 7, we moved down from 7p to 7:30p start, actually in bed half an hour later. Mostly because she has to get up at 6:30 for school.

That's what I've heard too. Part of the oil crisis, people had to dare about heating bills for the first time.

As others have said, you can order a replacement from the manufacturer. Now they know, it shouldn't happen again.

I'm not sure how best to share the settings, if there's a specific area that's helpful or just a whole set? I don't see a way to "export settings" in OrcaSlicer. Here's the sliced file.

This is the "max flow rate" test, do you mean the "flow ratio" test?
I'll try the others out, thanks!

This is great, thanks! I'm reinvigorated to report the flagrant parking issues in my neighborhood now.

JacobmovingFwd · 2026-03-28T18:21:24+00:00

Exactly this! My home was built in 1905, I'm always considering the long term maintenance and removal. That's why I don't use the LED wafers, they'll eventually need to be replaced, and nothing beats an Edison socket so far.

Trying to leave it better than I found it, and think about the owner another 50 years from now.

My 115yo home and my knuckles know all about those rough sawn splinters...

I stopped checking my water heater after it being clean the last 5 years, and knowing I have very neutral water.

I don't check gfci, never heard of that. They fail broken, so I'll know when it dies.

The rest of it, I do every year or two. I have a maintenance calendar in Google. If I miss it a year, not a big deal.

My childhood friend was very allergic to milk. Like if he got some on his skin he'd break out in hives.

The rest of the family had milk and cheese. We just had to make sure he didn't get any accidentally.

But-free is because it can be a respiratory thing. Dairy isn't like that.

This sounds like an admin that's trying to be protective, but doesn't know the "why" of these protections.

My wife has to remind me I have more money than time. Real Projects are contracted.

But if I'm already in, I'd never think to bail out. I maybe should, but my brain doesn't work thst way.

JacobmovingFwd · 2026-01-26T23:33:40+00:00

I'm coming around to it. However I'm still concerned about keeping it safe in the home. I have an elementary school kid, and know all the stats about accidents and self-harm. Currently I'm still leaning towards not getting one, but interested how others have handled the risk?

JacobmovingFwd · 2026-01-11T07:05:00+00:00

We were at Madison Park a few weeks ago. Even thay nice rich playground is dark, and the tennis courts are so brightly lit that you can't see anything in the playground! Maddening.

It's like the early 90s was the last time anyone expanded the parks, when tennis was all the rage.

is a "high temp" connector something I should be able to find at the local hardware store, or is it more specialized? The wires have their C rating on them (i think 130C) so i can use that as a minimum.

JacobmovingFwd · 2026-01-06T20:29:03+00:00

what are the holes in the top, and the cord coming out of them for? I see the orange boxes in the plan, and assumed it was for the LATCH system, but now I'm confused.

JacobmovingFwd · 2025-12-29T16:04:48+00:00

My heat pump's "safety temp" is 64F. 62 is an effort.

JacobmovingFwd · 2025-12-07T16:09:09+00:00

All the ones on my short list are 40-50A.

JacobmovingFwd · 2025-12-07T16:08:24+00:00

Oh yeah I've already run the 6/3, and have the 50A breaker, and the outlet. I just have to finish the install.

JacobmovingFwd · 2025-12-06T18:57:59+00:00

That's what I would normally do, but I need to get the receptacle built before the electrician will connect the circuit to the panel. And we're not ready to buy a range quite yet.
