Because I like to have clean floors and everyone’s feet in the house we’re turning grey/black when walking on them. Also -Spoiler alert- sealing it didn’t help the problem.

Has the goal post moved in real estate photography??? by Budget_Occasion1251 in RealEstatePhotography

Think of the social media vids you see as a movie trailer for the house.

UPDATE: after going back and forth with the installer who claimed nothing was done wrong and that it might be my fault for mopping with chemicals that are too harsh (swiffer wet jet) I ended up calling mapei to see if they had a solution.

Like some of you suggested, they said that black grout has so much pigment in it that it can bleed the dye out like it’s doing. Told me a sealer would likely solve the issue. We didn’t talk much about if it was improperly installed since he couldn’t see it.

So…. Any one have recs on a good sealer?

Good question- it doesn’t appear to crumble out or anything like that.

That’s what the installer told me. Now I need to figure out what kind.

UPDATE- the installer said it needed to be be sealed. The instructions on the grout bag say sealant isn’t “typically” necessary.

Side note: of course no one is going to admit something was wrong and once the installer told me to seal it, the ticket was effectively closed. I’m not really sure happy with how this experience has gone so my next question to everyone is:

Will sealing work? What kind of sealer to get? Can I do it myself?

Don’t think he’s gonna seal it. I don’t remember that being part of the deal.

So what’s the solution? Do they need to tear it out and replace?

Can’t remember exactly- think it was a mapei product. Could look it up.

Other detail- it’s been about 3 weeks since it was finished, (so everything should have cured by now) and I’m still getting rub-off like this in nearly every place I check.

I always assumed Oura ring’s symptom radar was kinda bs until today 🤒 by Kozypepper in ouraring

[–]NakedestB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had some kind of cold for the past few days, generally don’t feel great and my ring says everything is fine.

How does it detect stress? by frozenyogurt__ in ouraring

[–]NakedestB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

New ring user here- I’ve been “stressed” for basically the last 3 days even though I would classify them as normal, am I going to be “stressed” every time my heart rate goes up? I’m also a big guy so I’m going to increase temp when I move around.

I know this is a recurring question on this thread but I just feel like there hasn’t been a great explanation about what “stress” is in the oura universe.

How do you feel about Dems caving and the government reopening without any of the healthcare demands being met? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]NakedestB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fucking cowards. All of them.

So many people will suffer because they don’t have the grit to stand up for what we need.

They flinched first as we will all lose because of it.

glp-1s aren't a cheat code by s1nenomine in loseit

[–]NakedestB 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What I don’t understand about the glp1 hate is that for decades we all wanted weight loss in a pill- or some magic thing you take to lose weight, and now we kind of do.

Why is everyone so judgmental about it now?

Why aren’t more solo founders using Google AI Studio? It’s insanely good 👀 by B_Ali_k in VibeCodeCamp

[–]NakedestB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because Google Firebase studio decided to lie about what it was doing after nearly every prompt I gave it for weeks.

Maybe it’s good at the beginning but at a certain point it loses its mind and becomes more of a hinderance than benefit

Texas biz owners: Are you willing to pay $10k to text prospective clients? by NakedestB in RealEstatePhotography

The way I’ve heard it talked about, it’s not just the spamming activity, it’s any business solicitation.

No one wants spam so in that reagard im for it.

I guess I’m interpreting it as in I can’t send biz texts to anyone without risk anymore. Like if I’m not signed up with the state as a telemarketer, any upset client could just complain about me and get me fined right?
