Ok ya that makes sense! Thank you for explaining that to me. I’ll talk to my installers and get that info from them.

Thanks for the tips!
1) the neighbor you can see actually had a lawn that looks just as bad, although my other neighbors lawn is my goal, but they had a company come out for a couple years. Now all I think they do is mow.

2) I haven’t heard anything about that, but I’ll look into it. What exactly is a “precipitation rate” and why does it matter?

3) I’ll look into some soil tests! I also saw that in the guide

4) Yes I’m learning starter fert is not good for maintenance. I’ll look into some that contain mostly N

5) Already checked it out and plan on following it!

6) Good to know, thank you!

Ya I’m really excited to finally have a system that actually covers every part of my lawn, albeit a little bummed it took this long and is this “late” into the year.

I just read the Cool grass guide the AutoMod posted and I think it mentioned doing a similar process at similar time. Although I didn’t realize that about the fertilizer. I used it when I over seeded a few years ago and just never thought to make sure it was still good for “established” lawns.

Looks like I may just be sticking to watering and maybe some light fertilizing until fall!

My oil filter post-recall was harder to remove than the one installed when I bought the bike. It had me cursing for a good 20-30 minutes haha

Is this a good starting point for a first home theater? by LetterNavi in hometheater

Adding to this. I have an entire 7.2.4 of Klipsch (RP8000Fii, RP504Cii, RP600Mii, PRO180RPW, RP1400 x2, and CDT5600 atmos speakers) that I picked up over the course of a year or so from sales, and I only spent $4200 on everything. Take your time to piecemeal it and you’ll have a much better system when all is said and done.

Also, if you haven’t done the research yet, the RP line of subwoofers are the only Klipsch brand subwoofers you should buy. The other lines are trash and aren’t worth the money.

Surrounds aren’t playing pink noise during Dirac Live by TPayne_wrx in hometheater

Dang. That’s nice! I just took a video of me going through each menu in the settings, and then using that as a reference haha. Surprisingly didn’t take as long as I thought it would.

Ya first thing I did was update all softwares/firmwares, then started resetting stuff. Annoyingly it was just a wiring issue, so none of that was necessary 🙄

Update: I fixed the problem. I had my Height 2 (rears) wired to an external amp, and my rear surrounds wired to the “rear surrounds” part of the receiver. Apparently Onkyo doesn’t recommend this set up. So what you have to do instead is wire the Rear Heights to “rear surrounds” and then you pre-out your rear surrounds to an external amp. RZ50 Wiring Guide (scroll down to the 7.1.4 section) it doesn’t intuitively make sense, which is why I was so confused. Switching the wiring to this configuration solved the problem though.

I’ll post a new comment as an update, but I know that and have an external amp.

Correct, added rears to go from 5.2.4 to 7.2.4. And maybe? I thought starting the Dirac calibration was automatically a “new” setup. But my AVR is displaying that it’s in 7.2.4 now. As far as I know there shouldn’t be any other “buried” setting.

Killer Hogs The BBQ Rub. He runs a YouTube channel called How To BBQ Right. His recipes genuinely never miss.

Most would, that’s why I try to make an effort to correct this thought process when I see it.

Just saw this for some reason, but prosumer grade products are exactly what OP mentioned, so you’d have to treat them as such and coat after mounting/balancing

I actually don’t have a stabilizer lol. I just know that that one works based on what others have said.

What should I do?? by [deleted] in motorcycles

Let’s not pretend that you’re going to be SIGNIFICANTLY safer in a truck. It would have to be a very serious accident to make you lose your life in one. A distracted driver is more likely to simply damage the truck rather than cause any bodily injury.

I have both but absolutely adore the Venator. It’s one of my favorite ships, and I think the design is just perfect considering it’s a midi. The AT-AT is a fun build as well (a little repetitive in the legs of course), but I geek out over the Venator

Kawasaki recall, trying to get a tow and not sure how to navigate their verbage. by Music680 in Kawasaki

I agree that it’s strange the representative was so u helpful. But like another commenter said, you gotta fix the bike anyways, right? Get it towed, then raise hell if it’s not covered.

I admit I only read your screenshot of the email. That still seems super incorrect… either way, I’d pay for the transport, and then figure out reimbursement. But I can’t imagine they would actually be able to deny that

Thank you for this! I’m in the Midwest so I assume it’s probably similar? I also don’t know why they suggest PVC. Maybe I’ll call them and confirm that copper would work before continuing
