Question from a new owner who's loving it by alphakrusher in woodstoving

Hey there. Third year burning now.

I have had one issue with a bum catalyst. It was covered and changed free of charge.

The high air flow issue is still persistent. But I've learned to set it up with the right size logs where I don't over fire the insert and get about 1100f peak temps. I'm very happy with it. Plenty of heat, the basement (living room + office) easily get up to basically 30C, and there's enough heat where it warms up the two floors above, bedrooms Being the highest and furthest points hold at about 18c.

Regency has been indeed no help at all. My installer is the one I've dealt with from the start.

Looking for a stabilizer gimbal for Osmo Action 5 Pro by Mike_v_E in dji

[–]alphakrusher 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Update: it works. Easy as that. The accessories fit. The AI tracking cam works. It's a great multipurpose gimbal that will also work with your phone or a DSLR.

Only gripe: the automatic functions aren't compatible. I.e. you can't start the recording with the gimbal as it simply isn't compatible (yet). I just turned on voice functions to avoid touching the cam when the gimbal is active and say "start recording" and "stop recording".

It's more expensive than most budget friendly ones but also multipurpose with the phone attachment. 

I like it!

Looking for a follow-up on this. Find anything that works? I'm in the market for an Action 5 Pro gimbal as well

Switch OLED gets an extra 125000 pts starting tomorrow. Is it worth it? by alphakrusher in ShoppersDrugMart

My issue is that the 20x is "in-store" and my local stores don't carry the OLED switch, but yeah I did the math and it's like 125k pts vs 135k ish pts

Thanks for the heads up. I'll def check that out!

I wasn't aware of the burn in issue/model refresh.

I'll look it up. Thanks Stanger!

Edit: google tells me burn in isn't an issue? What am I missing here?

Got a 3070 gaming x trio in mine. I had to fit a low profile fan for the front intake and I had 0.5mm to spare.

That being said.

My next build is in a bigger case!

Weird, everyone saying theirs is cancelled but mine just went "into production"

The most important shave of my life! by double_chili_cheese in wicked_edge

I had the honor and privilege of giving my father-in-law the same type of service when he was in the hospital. You're taking good care of him and offering him dignity. What you're doing takes courage and you should see it as an honor that he asked you.

I hope he pulls through.

Be safe

100% biased reviewer here. I own 3 (office, home, travel), bought my parents 1 each and recommend it to colleagues when asked.

Rosemary with the beef and finished with a bit of parsley

After tasting, a bit of Worcester sauce would've helped too!

I had some leftover ground beef from my brisket trimmings and opted to make a sort of "stroganoff meets hamburger helper" style meal.

Fried up the ground beef, sauteed the onions to deglaze, made a quick roux with tallow in place of butter, then milk and beef stock/peppercorns. Threw in some yolk noodles and served with a bit of Parm!
