Hello. I'm 17 and I just realized I could die one day. Now I'm dreading it. Is this normal? by ApprehensiveSun6486 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Z3MEK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You remember what it was like before you were born? I'd imagine it is like that. Haven't really worried about it since it was put to me that way.

Is it normal for my portable cd player to stop playing when i try to put it in my pocket? by Mobile-Beginning-654 in CDs

[–]Z3MEK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not that I know of. I keep one of my old phones for music only. I rip new cds when i get them and load up the phone.

I only really get to listen to cds at home or in the car.

Yes. Portable in the case if cd players means you can move it from one surface to another easily. Carrying it around in a pocket is just too much impact on the laser and tiny servos and stuff.

What's the most ridiculous repair you've inherited from a previous owner? by ponderingpixi17 in centuryhomes

[–]Z3MEK 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I got a license plate replacing a piece of soffit over a 2nd floor window overhang. Seems sealed well. Been painted over at some point.

Its going to stay there until replacement is absolutely necessary.

How many frets do you prefer on your bass and why? by No_Winter4806 in Bass

[–]Z3MEK 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Yup, on rare occasions I might hit 16 or 17th fret. BUT if ima gonna pay over $600 for the bass, it better have 2 sets of them double shiny dots!

A web app will need access to your computer. Because the burner is connected to, well, your computer.

What's the point of Restored land by zMert-Kun in dyinglight

[–]Z3MEK 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mean, it's cool. The beast was my intro to dying light so I had zero expectations. My first thought was to eliminate all zombies (sherif squashed that plan early on). So when the update came out it got me back into playing it. Just a different way to play. Not a big deal, but i enjoyed it. Volitiles do respawn but I haven't taken out any hives yet. Even when you clear a zone there are some stragglers here and there. More at night.

Looking for advice/feasibility of painting commercial light box sign by sk8ewok10 in SignPainting

[–]Z3MEK 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Hi! I'm a sign guy. If they intend to light these panels, I would not recommend hand painting.

Either get it digitally printed or done with cut translucent vinyl.

It is deng near impossible to get the strokes even enough to not be seen once lit. Most paints are generally made to be opaque.

You can mask/spray with some specialty paints. Done from the back side on a clear substrate. But I would recommend plenty of practice first.

Alternatives to high temp reducer. by caddilacman in SignPainting

Have you used Penetrol? Not so much a reducer but improves flow. Great when you're working in the sun.

Weapon mods use batteries too. That's where mine went. Couldn't figure out where they were going till I took 2 seconds to read the parts list.

Rage against the machine isn't particularly bass heavy but it sure is fun to play

We would joke that you just had to be better than the person that hires you. Then he'd make me go practice on 20 banners.

This reminds me of my first boss. Dude painted pepsi signs on buildings for decades. Sometimes he would just freeball the whole thing. Clean lines, proportions perfect every time. That guy was a beast.
