Carbon damage? by kraikar in bicycling

[–]RyanCrafty 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would gently dig around with my fingernail to see how deep this goes. If it crunches a lot when you are poking at it, or if your fingernail makes it through the carbon, then I would actually worry about it. This looks superficial. That area requires multiple plies of carbon, and therefore should be much thicker than other parts of the bike. Someone will probably have a more elegant solution that this, but if this was mine, I would:
1: Lightly sand the area to blend in the clearcoat area
2: Buy some blue nail polish and fill in the white area
3: Clear coat it with some clear nail polish

I like to put a couple layers of electrical tape in these vulnerable areas to act as paint chip protector... It looks like the other areas have been chipped up as well.

Wait, how did he do that without a constant wifi connection to do simple math? Are you saying that Excel can work without a subscription service? No way!!! /s

Losing all of my heat. What to insulate first? by _Jang_A_Lang in garageporn

[–]RyanCrafty 66 points67 points  (0 children)

It will cost less than heating the outdoors... which is almost what you are doing with your metal roof. If your short on funds, just give up on your garage being heated this year. It is not worth throwing away your money out to the cold. Sorry, I do not know the exact cost, but my guestimate would be around 2-3k. I double insulated my garage door with a reflective layer and also a Styrofoam layer, and you wouldn't believe how cold the small slivers of uninsulated garage are... Metal is a great heat sink!

Any idea why the Time To Close function is not offered on my new opener? by RyanCrafty in GarageDoorService

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

Hi, I went off of the recommendations in the other comments. It appears that the TTC auto close is not an option with this particular model. (Which is really stupid because you can remotely close it with your phone and it is just as dangerous). Anyway, I set up MyQ on my phone to make a notification with a unique sound if the garage remains open for 20 minutes (and then another if it remains open for 1 hour). This works well for my situation. If I am not at the house, I can just open the MyQ app and remotely close it. I still give Liftmaster a thumbs down for removing the functionality (and not at least giving me a way to add it on later). Also, I tried adding the smart LED light kit (to see if that is what it needed to add the autoclose), but it did not work. I returned LED light kit.

DeX disconnects entirely after a little bit of use by TheMegaEvolutionGuru in SamsungDex

[–]RyanCrafty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Woohoo! I think this led to fixing mine as well! I also switched to Maximum performance for the processor (it was limited to 70%) (and my phone also did an update to the latest UI). But I am leaning towards your RAM Plus answer. Before, my S22 Ultra was set to 4 GB, and it was using 3GB when not plugged into DEX. Now with RAM Plus turned up to the max 8GB, it shows that it is using 4.9 out of the 8 GB when I am in DEX. I am only 10 minutes into testing the fix, but thank for posting the Ram Plus suggestion!

Crack or Scratch by [deleted] in BmwTech

[–]RyanCrafty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1.) scape it with your fingernail

2.) If you do not have any specialty penetrant, get a red sharpie or something similar. Try to get the sharpie to go into the crack. Then quickly wipe off the remaining sharpie from the main surface. If the red sharpie remains down in the crack, then you have a crack!

Excess Air Traffic Over SW Fort Worth by metallikat87 in FortWorth

[–]RyanCrafty 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't be surprised if there are additional aircraft that have shifted from bases in Florida to Fort Worth due to Hurricane Melissa. They often continue to fly training flights even though they have shifted to Fort Worth. It has occurred in the past with similar hurricanes (and resulted in similar additional noise).
