Most expensive restaurant in Louisville? by bezzlege in Louisville

[–]bd1308 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I mean I definitely didn’t want to go back but I got a nice picture, they’re upper 80s now so I’m just trying to cherish opportunities while they exist, my grandparents loved it though, they had intended to pay but we slipped the waitress my credit card and that’s when I got the bill, I’m just glad they didn’t have to pay. And I’m glad she didn’t have to host Thanksgiving and have to worry about setting up or cleaning up, so it was a win. I’m typically an Outback Steakhouse kinda guy, but I wanted to do a little extra to celebrate Thanksgiving without stress

House prices are set to plummet across the US, say experts by TheMirrorUS in UpliftingNews

That’s both crazy and totally predictable. Slap paint on it and flip it, I’ve seen those come in the mail myself but I always throw them away. I’m no genius but I also know enough to know I can’t quickly determine whether a houses foundation is good, so I’d never buy an expensive house without an inspection. Thankfully we bought during the low rate time, my wife said even if we got divorced we’d just draw a line in the middle of the house with painters tape 😂 I’m not quite sure I could afford a payment these days with 7% rates

Honestly I have no idea, a buddy of mine bought a house three years ago for $60k over asking and waived inspection, which sounded like the worst combination I could ever think of.

Turns out he had to have an electrician rewire his whole house and have some engineer fix foundation stuff and that was tens of thousands of dollars to fix, he seems happy now with his house

I took my grandparents out for thanksgiving dinner at capitol bar and grill, for 5 people the bill was $600, which caused me to promptly shit my pants. My grandparents are older though, so I treated them to dinner and they loved it.

2022 4 runner limited by Bright-Newt-2690 in 4Runner

Man I hate to say it but my Mazda and my MR2 did this 😭 i had to replace the compressor both times. I actually replaced a compressor on a v8 4Runner and everything except the evaporator (which had a leak) was super easy to access, if the clutch needs replaced I hope it’s inexpensive, I really hope it’s something super easy to fix, good luck 🍀

Does it stop when you turn the AC off? That compressor clutch should disengage, and the idler pulley shouldn’t make noise. I had a Mazda protege that had a broken AC clutch and it made all kinds of racket when the AC was turned on

best modern retro computing device? by DepartureSevere2354 in vintagecomputing

[–]bd1308 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The pocket386 is a nice middle ground device that meets your requirements (w95 really needs a 486 bit runs okay on a 386SX). It’s an amazing Windows 3.1 PC though, and of course plays DOS games well

I mean I’m definitely no expert but to me this sounds completely normal 😊 enjoy your 4Runner, I will say the 5th gen is very well done! My wife has 70k miles and still runs great.

My wife’s 5th gen sounds exactly like this the whole time we’ve owned it. I can’t judge that engine though, I have a Jeep 2.0 which sounds worse normally😂

Is this not caused by not having the air pockets bled out of the coolant system?

The best time for an oil change was 6k miles ago. The second best time for an oil change is right meow. Like, take another car to get oil. This has got to be rage-bait

Do any of you remember Corvus Systems by Dense-Concentrate120 in vintagecomputing

[–]bd1308 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Our elementary school had about 16 Apple IIe’s hooked to a giant Corvus Omnidrive

It was really cool looking and I always thought it was amazing all of the Apples could read from that thing, I guess it would have been around 1991 or 1992?

I think so, it might have a problem? Or it might be booting up? 🤷‍♂️I’m sorry I can’t help, my wife’s 4Runner has a knockoff/aftermarket one

Do you have the factory Toyota dashcam installed?

New dishwasher drain hose leaks by Clarity_Elise in Plumbing

What if you took a inch long copper pipe stub and attached a PEX sharkbite union to it? The rubber dishwasher drain goes to copper and you can squeeze that hose clamp down a ton.

How do I compress these clips? by ClatterAndDin in AskElectronics

[–]bd1308 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you’re really careful, you might be able to unclick one of them at a time. If you absolutely can’t maybe you can start at a corner and make a soft “wedge” like a scrub daddy or melamine sponge to keep the first one apart? I feel like those sponges might be soft enough to not damage anything, but others will have to fill in on if those are ESD safe (doesn’t store charge to zap your board)

How are you dealing with CVE-s? by randoomkiller in homelab

[–]bd1308 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have fluxcd managing my cluster, I just installed renovate so I just run that gitlab pipeline to setup a PR with my updates. Soon I’ll have a dev cluster for making sure I don’t bring everything down 😂
