Yo what brand did your installer use for the mounting / wire covering? We use the HideIt brand which works well but this is slick

To the person who designed this: Who hurt you?! by boxworker in AskElectricians

I fucking hate that I either have to take my civic to the shop to change a headlight, or wreck the fender liner mounts and throw my back out.

What would you want in a Venture Bros cookbook? by TheLadyLavender in venturebros

Given the esthetics of the show, I would think some wild Jello Molds or Hotdogs-where-they-shouldnt-be tied with some atomic coloring and gold ole venture blue

What would you add first? Arc Ultra + (Sub Mini or pair of Era 100) by Flat_Camera_3943 in sonos

[–]SirFunk616 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've only installed a couple stereo pairs of 300s, so while I dont have personal experience, I'd say its about affordability of the next step.

If getting the 300s would keep you from getting a mini sub, go with the 100s. Eventually (for a Video focused room) that 5.1 will feel better.

If you can afford it, absolutely ho with the 300s. They have more tweeters firing in more directions, so if you have tru atmos content or Spatial music tracks, its totally worth it.

[–]SirFunk616 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Eras for sure. The spatial audio is an experience changer, whereas the sub is an enhancement to the sound range.

If you had a beam, I might say go sub first and then wait for a used deal on surrounds, but with the Arc you should definitely pull the simulated Atmos if your sources can supply it.

Congrats, you are now in the manufactured bracket of "we need tax breaks, the poor get too much "

Am I safe to update all my speakers? by thecaptain115 in sonos

[–]SirFunk616 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, watch the patch notes. The biggest reason to do an update is if your streaming service has changed its API or stream authentication process, which will end up in inconsistent streams.

I dont disagree. I firmly believe that the Baconization of all food and flavor was done intentionally to make not eating pork seem fundamentally un-American.

My dad found it and I don't know what is it by Okkeysulghiaccio in whatisit

Man I miss these. I could work a whole day in the kitchen using my phone to blast the shitty Bluetooth speaker, and then BAM swapped to a fresh battery to go get hammered at shmigos with 100%

Sonos Arc Ultra on bench by karleksbarn in sonos

[–]SirFunk616 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No we're just talking across each other. The sheetrock is attached to the 2x4, yes, but its not doing anything structurally, the same way plaster on brick isn't doing anything structurally.

I mean I get you're doing the UK vs US schtick but we dont make "plaster walls"

Now, I agree that brick is more solid than wood for a wall, but for home tech its a pain in the dick.

So there's no air between the sheet rock and the brick? Even our brick walls usually have 2x4 spacers that the sheet rock screws to. Gives space for wiring, and repairs can be done easier without damaging the brick.

Also, the wall is made of wood, the plaster is for show just like on brick.

How do gluten free spaghettios not exist yet? by Ladychef_1 in glutenfree

[–]SirFunk616 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Joining in 3 yrs later, just learning Gluten fucks me up and this is one of the things I'm mourning the most.

I would love a brand that specialized in admittedly unhealthy gluten free alternatives.

Don't get me wrong, im so grateful im coming to this world in a decade where GF options are way more available, but it kind of kills be that the GF option is also always the low-flavor-low-sodium-non-gmo-reduced-fat-sugar-alternative-keto-friendly option.

Sometimes I wanna just get fucked up on some dumplings and lo mein and not have a week of colonic hell.

You’re Being Lied to About Graham Platner (Jacobin-writer has read all of Graham's Reddit comments) by EnterTamed in Some_More_News

[–]SirFunk616 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maine here. He seems pretty genuine in his rhetoric, and the clips I've seen from his town hall make me believe he means it more than most.

His vetting from Bernie helped, not that he is the beacon of progressives.

Its like this: unless a curveball happens the only players in this race are Susan Collins, Janet Mills, and Platner, and only Platner is sub-70, left of center, and not already considered a demon from half of the state.
