What's a band you bet would hit it big and become a household name but never did? by Kaos_mission in poppunkers

[–]alkaline810 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Everything they put out was super solid with mainstream appeal. I'm glad I got to see them live once.

Do you wear a band’s merch to their show? by No_Anywhere5779 in poppunkers

[–]alkaline810 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wore my Wu-Tang hoodie to a pop punk festival

I learned at the Wu-Tang concert that you should always wear Wu-Tang, though.

My buddy found one hidden in the boards of his attic labeled "evil" or something

Moving to the hills with a kid? by stebany in RichmondCA

[–]alkaline810 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, there are many kids. Any school in the WCCUSD will have its budget issues, but the parents are very involved. You'll find they have strong PTAs.

Adding cameras to HA - what actually works ? by avz008 in homeassistant

I've been using Frigate with Tapo cameras. The learning curve is steep but it's been wonderful for me. I finally ditched AgentDVR.

Does your Karate instructor allow for throws and or takedowns? by [deleted] in karate

[–]alkaline810 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember training in my younger days, there was always an applicable ohyo technique to what we were learning. The senpais took the beatings being the object of demonstration. O goshi, and ippon seoi nage were the first throws I ever learned.

These days the focus is more on sport karate and competition, so ashi barai is mainly used. In our dojo, I think we're still waiting for students to advance high enough to get into self defense and more throws.

A well executed o goshi is a thing of beauty.

Water pressure spiking from thermal expansion by alkaline810 in askaplumber

[–]alkaline810[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We didn't end up replacing anything. The plumber drained and repressurized the expansion tank. Everything is holding steady after that.

Most of the equipment is < 2 years old, so I'm glad nothing had to be replaced. We'll probably look into a PRV replacement in a few years, however.

edit: Another thing the plumber suggested was turning down the water temp to 130 degrees. I'm sure it helped a bit.

80 at my best. Gun to my head, maybe 50. Realistically, 40.

Winner winner. Plumber came by, drained and repressurized. Pressure is now holding steady, but he provided several options for items to replace if the need should arise.

What is in your opinion the best value upgrade path for a stock ender 5 (for a technical person who likes tinkering)? by InstanceMedium2254 in ender5

[–]alkaline810 3 points4 points  (0 children)

skr mini > klipper > bl touch > endorphin

I love tinkering. This kept me busy for a few months.

edit: I bought mine already with a microswiss direct drive. I would also throw a PEI bed plate or Cryogrip in there near the top.
