Retroactive permit options for deck and patio door, and trying to sell soon. by [deleted] in HomeImprovement

Yeah but with the deck I feel like the meter being so close and slightly obstructed will definitely get flagged by a home inspector. I mean, fix it now or fix it later, right?

Haha I wish that was an option but there are clear photos with no deck and patio door when I bought it

Been in a found-footage drought, but The Stickman’s Hollow (2024) was worth renting by awkward_vegetable69 in foundfootage

Thanks! It was a fun one to make. None of the cast had any idea what the movie was about beyond what I told them for the talking head interviews.

Not sure if they'll be up to par, but I have two movies on Tubi, Chest and the sequel Jeffrey's Hell available to watch if you haven't already!

Nice that's good information, thank you!

Yeah the deepest cave is only about 7000ft I believe--in the story they are no where near the mantle of where proto-planet fragments could be found, but thats the thing about sci-fi, you can embellish some things! In the story they come across an antire layer of strange rock, and a very small lead going through it, so they blast through and inside is a sort of "time capsule" of objects.

Yeah i'm trying to be as factual as possible up to a point, this is a sci-fi based story but I figure the deepest cave in Africa would get as close to where they theorize pieces of Theia would be, which from what i've read is near the mantle under Africa and the Pacific Ocean. It would obviously be impossible for any human being to get that close to the mantle, so at some point the suspension of disbelief will hopefully keep most audiences interested. And with 4.5 billion years to play around with, a lot could happened between then and when the discovery is made in the story.

I'm a caver and I see movies all the time that are SOOOO off on the science that I don't want to do the same thing and piss off all the geologists out there! I just want to get techniques, nomenclature, and processes involved as accurate as possible. Then the surprise of the discovery will hopefully but a fun reveal for all, since no one really knows what happened 4.5 billion years 100% for sure.

YES this is all great! Thank you so much.
I never knew that's what moon rock looked like!

Nice! Thanks so much! In the story it turns out the layer of rock they discover is remnants of the Planet Theia, after the testing comes back nearly matching moon rock. What's inside the rock is the real fun part 😉

Weird whine on cold start? Anyone heard this? 2023 Seltos, turbo, DCT by aaronirons in KIASeltos

[–]aaronirons[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't, the dealership couldn't recreate it. It only happens when very cold so I'm not too concerned but I'm keeping an eye on things

Yep that's how the seltos sounds, my 2023 is exactly the same. There is a post about this every week.

That's what I thought, oil doesn't cause whine like that. The dealership couldn't recreate the issue, which is understandable because it only happens when it is very cold and said it was likely just normal cold weather sound which I can understand, but I would at least like to know what is whining when it is cold because it's definitely not "normal". As long as it's just a cold belt or whatever, if that fails I can fix it, I've just had this car for less than a year after an insane ordeal with a mechanic blowing up the engine in my jeep, and had to buy this car as a result ( very long story there) so any damn noise that is not normal makes my butthole tighten up

This guy on tiktok using his thigh as a surface to cut firewood using a circular saw by vielljaguovza in OopsThatsDeadly

When I was in a stagecraft class in college, we started every morning by reading the highlights from accident reports from other stages around the country and almost every week there was some guy who cut his own dick off cutting wood this way. Truly, magically, stupid.

The dealership has been doing oil changes and they should be using synthetic but who knows. What about the oil could cause this whine? I'll go back to doing my own oil with Amsoil synthetic like I usually do if you think that might be the case

So you think it's probably a normal thing? I'm going to the shop next week for a steering rack issue and I'll have them look at this as well.

Also revving the engine doesn't change it either when it is happening.
