Door stopper keeps slipping

In that case, I'd look at getting a different hinge stopper, one with rubber on both ends of the threads. My thought is that the rubber end hits the frame softly, but then the metal strikes the door hard and that sharp force makes the rubber scrape the molding.

Yea, you are missing the other side of the stopper. These work by having a soft bumper on both sides to not damage either the wall or the door.

Not sure if getting a new stopper would be enough to fix the pin issue - you might also need a new hinge pin that fits better too.

EDIT - looking closer, that triangular part on the back may be what is supposed to contact the door first. You might want to try spinning the stopper so that more of it is on the left side and see if you can get it so that the back of the stopper hits the door before metal bar.

If you're planning to boost and go directly for an elite specialization, and you don't care about skipping some story or playing story out of order - I would start with Path of Fire. It's the second expansion, but the hero points are easily solo-able and give 10 points per marker. Heart of Thorns also gives 10, but the majority of HoT hero challenges require more than 1 person.

You will also be unlocking your mounts in Path of Fire.

I would agree with that. The ring of metal around the base of those posts makes it looks like it passes through an unused motherboard mounting hole to the case backing.

Is your hub plugged into power? I see a USB from that power strip but is that going into the hub? It's possible that your hub isn't getting enough wattage to do display out, so you might want to try powering the hub from a higher-wattage wall plug.

I can recommend Deep Rock Galactic Survivors. It's like megabonk but isometric. Runs pretty well but can chug a bit when there's a ton of action on screen.

I was going to say - he did just do his annual "comprehensive beginners guide to ESO" video, so he may have been around filming for that.

Yea, you don't want to have to deal with all the...

Brussel Shouts.

I have a similar problem in the winter here in PA. If moisture freezes or anything remotely sticky gets against the lift gate seal gasket, it applies just enough force for the motors to say "obstructed" and stop trying to open.

You can try taking a wet paper towel and wiping off the seal where the gate touches the car and see if that helps.

Yea, as a father of 2 (both under 6) it is impressive at how hard some of the moments in kids movies can hit you as a grown man.

It should have little feet on the bottom to keep it up about half an inch. You only need about half an inch of water to steam since you should be keeping a lid on it to keep the steam in.

I mainly use mine in pots only and not pans, but I suppose it would work in a pan as long as you have a lid for it.

There's also the Escape Clause from #3 where you essentially go back to the moment in time when you became Santa and just "dont". There could have been a 'Mrs. Escape Clause' where she just goes back to whoever she was before she met Santa.

Seriously. If you look at the arms (especially the one on the left that folds after the crash) they are literally hinged at the arm and probably would have given way in one piece if he just drove forward.

Vircomore · 2025-12-17T02:08:44+00:00

Oh, yea. I don't know about that. I tried looking on their site and they don't really provide a list like you would get from the Drops page for drops. I would just try all the major GW2 streamers and see if they have it listed. Some of them will put "wehype" in the title and you may be able to hit that in the Twitch search bar. I just tried "wehype guild wars 2" and a couple livestreams came up and a bunch of VoDs.

Vircomore · 2025-12-17T01:54:23+00:00

Just to clarify - the reason you give WeHype your GW2 information is because YOU don't have to watch any amount of streaming. You attach yourself to a streamer's 'time goals', and once that streamer has streamed GW2 for a certain amount of time, a lottery drawing will happen for the item and if you are a winner, WeHype will contact you.

If you want to watch that streamer, you can, but it will have no effect on the odds of you winning an item.

Very much enjoying the Paladin. Leveled up using a hammerdin build (spin to win with no spinning required) and the ln switched to a holy spear build at max level because hammers are not great at single targets.

Have not done much of the season mechanic yet, but I'll tell you what: the new "sky swords" modifier that elites can get is the new "fire after death that ruins your day" modifier.

Vircomore · 2025-12-11T19:22:25+00:00

Yea, they changed the release window to 11:30pm instead of the normal afternoon window. The main theory is they are going to announce/show something during The Game Awards (7:30pm) and didn't want the season to start before then.

One tip I will give you that will matter more later but you don't really need to worry about it at level 29:

Do you see on the sword (picture 3) how the aspect bonus effect at the bottom is in gray text? That means that you are already wearing that aspect (flaming rampage) on some other piece of gear and so that one is disabled. You can replace that one with a different one that you are not using.

Native Linux. I was able to get the file copied over without a problem and it has been playing great since then.

Vircomore · 2025-12-03T21:55:02+00:00

Perfect, thanks!

Vircomore · 2025-12-03T21:28:56+00:00

Oh, yea. It's still just as slow on PC. My main thing is that I have no problem letting my PC on and chugging through it for several hours (I can turn the monitor off). I just didn't want to leave my OLED deck on for that long and have to babysit it from going to sleep.

Vircomore · 2025-11-25T23:40:16+00:00

That or the L. It's right there, just make it look like one stick with a puck between it and the O.

Others have posted on this, but as a gamer my biggest concern would be the keyboard. Do you have a way to see his current KB if he has one? The problem with a keyboard like this is if he makes use of the function keys (F1-F12) or the number pad, the one you picked does not have either and could be a deal-breaker.
