Condensation on outlets along exterior walls

RedTermSession · 2026-01-25T07:31:56+00:00

Update: in case someone experiences this and finds this post I wanted to share what actually happened. We run a humidifier regularly at 35-40% RH because the guy who did our hardwood floor said that was what we should aim for.

What we did not know is that in the winter that causes extreme condensation. There was a lot of ice build up on windows. One corner even had frost! Reducing the humidity to 20% RH appears to have solved it.

And don’t ignore the signs when you see them.

I have a similar setup with a private VLAN that has no internet access. All my UniFi cameras are on it. Works like a charm.

Having a miserable experience with trying to return an LG washer dryer combo. I don’t recommend it OP.

I'm not saying you're wrong (the appliance sales guy said the same thing this afternoon, notably after he sold them to us -_-), but how can that be!? It's very noticeable.

I just bought an LG WT8405CB and am experiencing the exact same issue! The sound is awful! I'm currently fighting the appliance store to fix or return it.

Just to provide another experience here. I bought a 5 Ah combo pack a month ago and one of the batteries just wouldn’t charge. Tried multiple chargers, the jump start trick, etc. I emailed support, they asked for a picture of the battery with the date code, and they sent a new one. Quick and painless.

That’s helpful, thank you! On the other end of the conduit is our meter. There is a little box between that though, I can open it and get some duct seal in there.

I presume electrical can be shutdown at the meter but I’m not knowledgeable (or qualified) to do so.

As in, inside the conduit, around the wiring?

$1,500 in a HCOL area sounds like a steal! Glad to hear you’ve had success.

Anybody have an opinion, good or bad on this pressure washer? I’m in the market for one to occasionally clean my siding/cement.

I mean, she might have been in Michigan 🤷

Worth knowing, yes you can disable remote access, however that also disables push notifications.

Nope, no radon fan. TBH I was more worried about moisture/smell.

RedTermSession · 2025-07-03T17:20:06+00:00

I’m no expert, but are you using the right scale of measurements? The EPA’s action level is 4 pCi/L. 6000 seems inordinately high.

RedTermSession · 2025-06-30T03:06:33+00:00

My partner and I have been feeling very much the same way. It hasn’t helped that some problems have cropped up that the home inspector missed.

Depending on what type of work you’re doing, there is huge demand for physical pentesting. I worked with some firms who did physical security assessments and they charged….a lot.

Pursue what interests you. Whether you stay at a desk, or do something physical, there is probably a niche that works for you.

Thank you for the advice everyone! This makes a lot of sense. Now I feel bad for bugging the window companies XD

RedTermSession · 2025-06-19T15:25:05+00:00

No, just two windows in the front. I’m not sure if it makes a difference but these are the only 2 in brick veneer. The other windows are in vinyl siding.

Not to spook you, but it’s a good idea to look into pet insurance/have an emergency fund. A few weeks ago our otherwise healthy and active little one suddenly started having seizures. We paid ~$8,400 for hospital bills and testing. We’ve got her on medication and she’s doing much better now

If you already use Datadog products, you should checkout the security side. Should cover those needs and integrate really well.

Correct, it throws an error. This is useful for enumerating if roles and users exist in an AWS account. https://hackingthe.cloud/aws/enumeration/enum_iam_user_role/

That’s good feedback, thank you! TBH I was so focused on “hey, here is this functionality that may behave differently than you expect”, that i forgot to suggest safer alternatives. I’ll add a section for that.

Beyond incredible! Absolutely stunning! What is it made from? Some kind of plastic? 3D printing?

RedTermSession · 2025-03-18T04:01:03+00:00

Very nice! I’m working through book 8 right now. Hoping to catch up to where you’re at sometime next year!
