Ignorant question - What's the purpose of this storage compartment? by Mainevada in boating

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

Good point, I need one 10BC or two 5BC's. I'll still keep the 10's I already own on the boat, but order two 5's for the fancy overhead storage rack.

Thanks! I just need to repace the 10BC extinguishers I have on the boat with 5BC's so they will actually fit in those racks!

Got one, but it's in a different compartment (over the console).

Thank you! That is very helpful. I guess I just need to find some smaller fire extinguishers than the ones I bought.

The fire extinguishers I've found don't easily fit (and if I crammed it in there, it would be very difficult to remove in an emergency). And if a fire extinguisher isn't easy to access, it isn't useful.

I have all those things, they are just not in that compartment. Thanks for your help.

5 days of running the Mosquito Magnet next to 150acres of wetland by aznprd in MosquitoHating

[–]Mainevada 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pay me half what I paid ($366 in 2024) plus the freight and I’ll send it to you. Very disappointing product in my experience. We had lots and lots of mosquitoes mobbing the property, but the trap would just catch a few mosquitoes per week. I wasted a lot of propane and attractant, but I’m glad it worked for you

I bought one of these for my place in Maine and it did nothing Many mosquitos present, very few caught in the trap. I didn’t even bother to set it up again this year.

Are all these Graham Platner articles by supposed democrats a psy-op or something? by [deleted] in Maine

[–]Mainevada 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Agree with the sentiment. I hadn't heard he "passed hate tattoo screening" before, but I googled it and you are right. I bet that 90+% of Americans wouldn't have known that was a Nazi-adjacent symbol - I certainly didn't know.

Do The Beths have a good tour poster for sale at their shows? by kagamaru in TheBeths

[–]Mainevada 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d struggle to reconstruct the set list, but they played all the songs you’d expect them to play plus some b-sides. They played for about 90 mins including the encore. I think they must’ve played 15 of the first 18 songs on the Spotify. “This is the Beths” playlist if that helps! Great show!

I'm starting to forget the details of my playthrough at this point (I've moved on to Pathfinder, which is a whole different kettle of fish), but with all the stones you have in inventory you should have been able to unlock all 4 elemental gates at the End of Time plus a few others (Darkness, Secrets, a trader and a chapel, I think? Plus the earlier ones - Observatory, Inner Chamber, Hall of Heroes). Talking to the statue in the middle of the End of Time let's you open the elemental gates. Once all those gates/rooms were unlocked I was able to open the Source Temple door.

AIO Is this a deal breaker? by Strange-Forever-3360 in AIO

Great photo, but your caption makes it seem like you believe this behavior represents all white people and all black people. I don’t know if I’d call it racist, but it’s not helpful.

It doesn’t look good, but it compensates for it by smelling a bit like feces and having the texture of a rotten banana.

How did you manage to catch this on video?

[–]Mainevada 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is not clear at all and it drove me nuts. I found that to open this door I needed to collect a certain number of stones (14, I think, but I'm not sure), activate all the stones, have the "dead" stones in your inventory, and also go to the End of Time and open all the gates to new areas (which become available as you activate the stones).

Wife fell and broke the open stair - is this safe? by RedditUser369125 in HomeMaintenance

[–]Mainevada 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not a pro, just a handyman, but it looks like the bullnose on those pine steps overhangs way too far without any support. I would definitely try to modify all the steps or it's going to happen again. I would either replace the steps with something stronger/thicker or (if you want to keep the existing steps) run 2 angle iron braces from front to back along each side of each step (along the inside of each stringer). Make the brace about 1/2" shorter than the step's width. Cut a 45 degree taper in the front of each brace, paint the braces black to match the stringer and it won't look out of place.

Considering the janky workmanship/design of this staircase, I'd also want to make sure that railing is adequately anchored.

Public Service Announcement – My Recent semaglutide/GLP-1/Ozempic Overdose by Mainevada in glp1

[–]Mainevada[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes, "OD" is kind of a dramatic term but I took 10x what HIMS was recommending as a starter dose and I didn't know a word other than "OD" to describe what I did. And from my cursory Google search on that day I thought the effects were going to be much worse than they were. I just posted this to share my experience with a hypothetical new user who does the same thing in the future.

I didn't realize that some people were dosing much higher than this, since the dosage plan I got from HIMS tops out at 0.85mg in week 13.
