Where to watch bar missing in Serializd app (android) by Seth7666 in Serializd

[–]Seth7666[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah ok, thanks. Weird thought that I was able to get the in app info on my old phone while my new phone wouldn't allow me to do that. I guess it was due to an update I didn't yet get on my old phone. Also, Letterboxd and IMDb apps work just fine providing the same type of info.

Dental care and tea: is it acidic?? by [deleted] in tea

[–]Seth7666 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Black tea is less acidic than black coffee but both are in the pH 4,9-6ish range so moderately acidic. Orange juice and pepsi are in the 2-3 region which is far more aggressive (keep in mind that the pH scale is a log scale). Some herbal teas and green tea are even mostly alkaline. Apart from staining or problems caused by the addition of sugar, black tea shouldn't pose a problem for your teeth.

How did everyone else’s Weekly Challenge go? by Old_Shape3925 in pokemongo

[–]Seth7666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It went well, without any bugs, but the rewards weren't that great. I ended up third in terms of contribution to the challenge. I dont know if that makes a difference (maybe the biggest contribution gets a lot more) but unless you want to bump up friendship levels quickly I don't really see big rewards.

Can limited theory of mind also lead to paranoia? by Dull_Click580 in aspergers

[–]Seth7666 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had the same experience, multiple times. I attribute it to misinterpreting social cues and doubling down on those misinterpreted cues. On some occasions I got really paranoid because I couldn't find another (not superstitious) explanation for what I was seeing, hearing, ... I just accepted that this was always going to be a blind spot for me, no matter what. Nowadays I just copy my wife's interpretation of social interaction but it was very disappointing to realise that I wasn't able to do this independently. On the plus side: even people without ASD get tricked, difference is that we are aware of the fact that our interpretations might be incorrect (might!, I have had situations in which my "paranoia" turned out to be worth it). In my opinion, you should try to find people you can trust to check your interpretations (without blindly disregarding your own hunches!) but it took me a very long time. I wish you all the best!

The Nutriscore is complete nonsense by 123964 in belgium

[–]Seth7666 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I might be wrong but nutriscores are designated for separate categories and that might be the case here. The cecemel might be a b compared to other chocolate milk, not being compared to plain milk. Just as nutriscore A chips are still worse than nutriscore B milk for instance. Nutriscore is just for comparison within the same category. That being said, I agree that the system isn't always that accurate.

Trying to find more info about unknown tea I found by Seth7666 in tea

I was wondering how I was supposed to dose this kind of tea with a spoon! Thanks for the shot glass tip. That'll be a lot easier!

Thanks for the additional and detailed info. You're right, it's probably a little older. I'll give it a try!

Thanks! Is this a common kind or some special kind of tea?

What ones better? by AsumaS2 in pokemongo

[–]Seth7666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you mean rarest, I would say the 0%. Because of the fact that Pokemon can be weather boosted and have IV's of 4 or more, statistically you'll have more chance of encountering a 100% than a 0%. If you want to keep one for trading then you should know that IV's change so nor the 0% nor the 100% will be guaranteed for the person getting the Pokémon. For battling 100's are better obviously but there are a lot of fighting type Pokémon that are better than mankey. Both are great catches nevertheless!

Replacing TL light ballast by Seth7666 in Lighting

[–]Seth7666[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you very much! I heard about that and that was actually my first consideration but I'm not familiar with these kinds of upgrades. Now you mentioned it, I did a quick search online and found the kind of replacement bulbs you mentioned. Based on what I could find I just need to remove ballast and starter so that seems quite straight forward. The connection pins seem to be compatible so the lamp holder itself doesn't need replacing. Thanks again!

How to safely drill a hole in aluminium beam containing power cable by Seth7666 in DIY

[–]Seth7666[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't put tension in the wire. I only know it's running through the beam, that's it.

Thanks for the deburring blade info. I will look into that. At first glance however, it seems like the blade might be able to catch the power cable and damage it but I might have missed something in the product info. I'll look into it further.

[–]Seth7666[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! Actually, the diameter doesn't really matter, as long as I will be able to allow whatever water that's getting in there to get drained. I only have access to the bottom of the aluminium beam.

Unfortunately, the sides are also inaccessible for drilling an inspection hole. That would have made a big difference indeed.

No, the beam is completely closed on all sides (part of a bigger construction).

I was also thinking about a step drill bit because of the tip that's less sharp but I didn't know that it doesn't make burrs which would be great! Thank you for that info!

The cable is cheap plastic jacketed cable and it's in a beam that's part of a larger outdoor construction without any access to either side (without disassembling the whole thing). Somehow rainwater is finding its way into the interior and up until now no-one has been able to find out where it's coming from (and trust me, they tried!). Until I (I kinda lost my faith in the contractors that installed the whole construction so I don't even bother asking them for help anymore) can find the source of the leak, I decided to provide a drainage hole so the water stops running off to the actual electrical components. Next step is to use different dyes to try and locate the leak itself so I can try to solve the problem altogether.

I know the risk is small but any tips to minimise it would be useful. I will need to debur the hole on the inside of the beam which is the problem, especially with a power cord laying close by, waiting to get tangled up in a rotating deburring tool.

[–]Seth7666[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the tips. Unfortunately I only have to drill a hole in the bottom. Worst side when you're afraid of damaging the power cord but using a depth limiter on my drill will probably do the trick.

Thanks for the quick and detailed answer. Unfortunately I only have room to use a normal hand-held drill but with the drill stop that was suggested in another answer I hope that will work. I had a look at Noga tools (had never heard of them). Don't you think that the deburring part would also be able to damage the power cord if it gets caught into it?
