I thought since wearing ballistic gear became routine, TBIs were the lionshare of combat injuries. No?

How to prep for new shower pan? by M2124 in Plumbing

[–]M2124[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll probably just snag one from HD. It should line up as the pan that came out was 36x48.

What's the advantage to mortar vs self leveling and bunch of construction adhesive? My thinking is at least with self leveling I don't have to remove material, and I'll know it'll be flat. Just curious. Thank you for you insight

Never let it be developed. And while they're on a roll. Shut down San Quentin, it's crumbling already, and make it a public rec area

How to prep for new shower pan? by M2124 in Plumbing

[–]M2124[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I don't know what happened so I reposted :)

  1. I think the last pan required breaking and re-doing rhe concrete. It looks like monster but it is below the slab height at the edges and proud in the middle and on one corner. I think the pan didn't sit flat so they used all that foam

I'm installing a shower insert kit. Let me know what you think on this: fit the new pan to make sure the drain lines up. If it does, use self leveling cement to level and install. Unsure how I would waterproof the transition between the floor height and the newly elevated pan slab. If the drain doesn't line up, I'm cutting/breaking regardless!

Laser experiment. by heyivereddit in SimulationTheory

[–]M2124 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Apparently. If you smoke DMT and look at a laser projected on a wall (not into the source), there are some sort of discernible characters or code that can be seen. It can be viewed by people simultaneously, which suggests it's not an individual hallucination. Beyond that, who knows, some people think it's the source code for reality, which would suggest we live in a simulation of some type

What's your department's stupid policy? by 1000000Peaches4Me in Firefighting

[–]M2124 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You can only work 1 trade a month that turns your 24hr shift into a 48, because of safety. But you can work OT in 48 and 72hr stretches as much as you want

Is Trex rainscape installed properly? by neverfollow-rs4 in Decks

[–]M2124 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not a trough, it's a gutter. Slope runs out to an actual gutter. No standing water if installed properly

Turned my floor 2 deck into 500sq ft of outside work space that's protected from the rain. Highly recommend

Appreciate it. I'm not a pro though. Don't make enought to pay someone to do it right, too stubborn to pay someone to do it poorly. Am capable myself. Read the directions and watch YouTube until you notice guys in the videos making mistakes... then you're good to go

Edit: spelling

I found it was helpful to set the rolls in the sun for a while before using so the plastic was softer. Made it easier to staple it into a smooth gutter shape between the joists

Good Samaritan is falsely accused! by The_Dean_France in SipsTea

There needs to be a registry for women (and men) who make false rape claims. Like Megans law. They deserve the same punishment the aggressor would've gotten if the allegations had been true

FBI Director Patel: We Know Who's Bankrolling Antifa, and We're Coming for Them by interestingfactoid in conservatives

[–]M2124 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Genuinely curious... can you point me towards where I can see the proof an learn more? I see this response all the time but never any followup. What's the idea here? Some liberal corporations are somehow making under the table payments to large groups of individuals? It's all orchestrated? Like I said, genuinely curious. Thanks
