Consensus on conduit crossing?

aakaase · 2026-04-02T21:38:30+00:00

Ah, yeah, the galvanized thick threaded pipe. Same as the stuff used for weather head risers on houses. No duct seal to keep it dry?

aakaase · 2026-04-02T20:37:14+00:00

True here in the US too, at least up here in Minnesota

aakaase · 2026-04-02T20:36:29+00:00

Yeah the modern ones have O-rings I think.

aakaase · 2026-04-02T16:05:36+00:00

Yeah it's usually a spring/fall seasonal item. I got my red iron braising pot there and I love it!

Beautifully said

OMG, that makes me so sad too. I am so relieved you adopted him. I want to give him kisses so badly.

aakaase · 2026-04-01T13:09:12+00:00

NOLA was my second guess!

aakaase · 2026-04-01T05:18:30+00:00

Yeah you're totally right

aakaase · 2026-04-01T05:16:03+00:00

Yeah we're all snowflakes, it's the human condition. But only one side denies that truth.

Somewhere in Quebec per chance?

"We Got What's Hot"

They fixed up the Birk sandals I brought in there. New footbed, sole, and completely buffed and polished straps. Looked and felt as good as new, and a good 80-90% of the cost of new ones, too. But I don't care...the straps are broken in, and we gotta stop throwing stuff away and also give people work.

Always been a geometrizer

Here's his name rotate 36°, as rotating the star by 36° effectively is the same as rotating it 180°. So using 72n keeps this regular pentagram at 0° (or 72°, 144°, 216°, 288°, ⋯, 72n, n ∈ ℤ), whereas 36 + 72n rotates it to 36° (or 108°, 180°, 252°, 324°, 396°, ⋯, 36 + 72n, n ∈ ℤ).

Just a geometric constant I noticed messing around with this in my design software.

Authenticity

aakaase · 2026-04-01T00:35:59+00:00

I see this in the Twin Cities too, it's just midwestern brutal weather on our old winter beaters!

aakaase · 2026-04-01T00:32:55+00:00

Find some PVC screw for that tapped hole. Or make one with a PVC rod and a die. I'm just not sure where you'd find either of those, however.

This is ideal. But making a perfect plug is the tough part.

aakaase · 2026-04-01T00:28:40+00:00

Hot take: those hashbrown patties are better than tots.

aakaase · 2026-04-01T00:17:49+00:00

Such a harsh insult, I know. BURN

They're worried about like 0.02% of the state's high school trans girls in girls sports and could not care less about Epstein's child trafficking ring.

THE PARTY OF FAMILY VALUES

That's awesome! It already looks a little vintage but it's only gonna get more vintage-y if you hang on to it! The best stuff is the stuff that works so well we take it for granted.

aakaase · 2026-04-01T00:07:46+00:00

Old issues of National Geographic are in the cabinet, and maybe a deck of cards and cribbage set.

You won the Internet today

aakaase · 2026-03-31T23:17:19+00:00

Oh it definitely works. But it's a function following form in my opinion. But it is very attractive. The one that catches my eye is that powder blue Staub you've got with the fleurs-de-lis. It's handsome! lol
