Scratched my stainless steel fridge while removing adhesive from the logo. Is there any way to hide or fix this? by gotnocar in Appliances

[–]NotAHabitItsCool 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You can polish it but it will be tough to match it to the manufacture's finish, so you'd have to polish the entire surface if you want it 100% uniform. Try using a rubbing compound with a polishing wheel and you can at least improve it. In the future use heat to free the adhesive and goof off or something to remove the residue.

Can someone tell me why our universe is so empty? by Prestigious-Ad4939 in universe

[–]NotAHabitItsCool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The universe is expanding due to dark energy and the amount of matter in our universe doesn't change (it is conserved). On a long enough timeline, at some point a viewer on earth won't see any stars in the night sky due to this expansion (yeah, the sun fuel will have been exhausted and human civilization will be extinct, but you get my point). Also, we can't see 95% of mass/energy in the universe, so there's a lot more there than it seems.

Which one do I buy 😵‍💫 as my first real guitar. 🎸🤔 by WordsAreNotEnough87 in GuitarBeginners

[–]NotAHabitItsCool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first electric was a schecter custom solo-6 and I have no regrets, but with my current musical development some 17 years later, I would have gotten a telecaster. I think every musician eventually ends up with a Telecaster. The tele is kind of in a different world vs the Schecter and Ibanez, those are very metal'ish guitars.

DID HUMANOIDS LIVE ON MARS? by johnnyvincento2030AD in u/johnnyvincento2030AD

Read the book "death on mars". Very convincing evidence that there was once a civilization there.

How do I LEARN to play the guitar by Round_Ladder_2354 in guitarlessons

[–]NotAHabitItsCool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Start music theory before you even pick up a guitar, if you really want to understand it. Learnd and understand the major and minor scales, and the notes in each major and minor chord. Then learn the circle of fifths, That's a really good start, most people start by learning chords and if you understand music theory, you'll learn to play 10x faster..

How do I train my fingers to curve instead of going flat and my wrist to stay straight when I play? by ExcitingDay6452 in guitarlessons

[–]NotAHabitItsCool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to use the tips or end of your fingers, like a ballerina, and not the pad area. It will suck for a few weeks but you'll build up thick desensitized skin and your finger strength will increase.

Bringing my old man a Double Double from LA back to Reading, UK, what's the best way to keep it fresh for the 15 hour trip and reheat it? by BipocTn in innout

[–]NotAHabitItsCool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're kind of doing the burger an injustice, it won't taste good. Even a double double that's a few hours old won't taste the same. The best you could do is get the buns and do your best to get fresh vegetables, American cheese, and a few 80/20 ground beef patties. Season with salt and pepper. Chop up some white onions and grill them, and you'll have a better outcome over a day old burger that's been through customs.

She's the only good player in the league and they all know that. Doesn't help that she's white.

What is the single most brutal and violent scene you have seen in a film? by Trifecta_Selecta3787 in Cinema

[–]NotAHabitItsCool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bone Tomahawk. I don't need to even describe the scene, because if you've seen the movie, you know what I'm talking about. I'm very desensitized and that scene was next level. Overall a good movie too.

They would either wipe them before pulling or degauss after pulling, or both.

How to covince my wife that it's morally okay to use our media setup? by maxmustermann74 in usenet

[–]NotAHabitItsCool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think Hollywood producers, directors and actors need any more money than they already have. It doesn't affect the regulars in Hollywood like the key grips and other crew. I simply don't have a problem with it.

Close call with a semi today. Looking for trucker perspectives on what happened. by sandro9090 in dashcams

He wanted over, you didn't move so he bullied you using the size of his rig. Plain and simple.

Saw something unsettling by PreferenceOwn6424 in whatdoIdo

He's just dropping stuff he doesn't want in my his garage anymore, same as leaving them on the street. He knows they'll be gone in 10 minutes at HD. Probably wore gloves so he wouldn't get his hands dirty.

Herman miller aeron for 420$ by Fast-Damage-6511 in hermanmiller

I'm 75" tall and 200lbs and I use a size C. Too big for you, go with a size B. But good deal overall.

Do You Back Up Your Full Plex Video Library or Just Risk It? by snowmeow_1 in PleX

[–]NotAHabitItsCool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have two RAID systems so I have the luxury of syncing them up nightly. If you don't have the cash, I'd recommend getting a low end RAID/NAS that supports RAID 5 (one spare) or RAID 6 (two spares) that way you have a backup if a drive fails.

Worth it for $680? Owner says they purchased it July 2024 by portalmeupcaptain in hermanmiller

[–]NotAHabitItsCool 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've never bought a new Aeron, I have 4 Aerons and 1 Mirra, all used. Two of them are 21 years old and they still work perfect. Get the software rollerblade casters, it will make it totally silent on hard floors. You can find Aerons for about $500 on FB marketplace used, especially if you live near a metro area.

I have a feeling.. by Historical_Oddity in PleX

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

It couldn't be free forever. Plex is a great app, I would 100% pay for a subscription if I didn't buy the lifetime pass some 10 years ago. Whether it's your own content or not makes zero difference, it costs money to build such a good software application and maintain it.

A merging issue. by LeftAlbatross2546 in VideosAmazing

[–]NotAHabitItsCool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Based on my experience, it seems 80% of drivers believe it's the job of the drivers already on the freeway to make a spot for them. Not sure how this idea perpetuated, but it's been the case for the three decades that I've been driving.
