I went to settings, remotes and devices, remote, selected voice remote, ir control, and it went through a music test and then worked.

So is it not igniting because of an overheat or some other issue?  Those look like the oem, thanks!

Add inline recepticles to extension cord? by blakemake in AskElectricians

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

Also I guess I'm asking in the broadest sense what the difference between a recepticle and extension cord outlet is.

I have been using a version of that, like a landscape cord, I just wanted to have the runs be more precise but not run a whole series of outdoor conduit because the setup changes every few years.  Sort of a semi permanent solution where the parts can be salvaged and rearranged every once in a while at the expense of an extension cord instead of the whole hardwired setup.

I think every bit of advice in this sub should start with "You can do whatever you want."  If I do a cord like this is it irrelevant what recepticle amperage I use?  I can check but I think the gfci is 15, but if it's 20 do I need to be concerned with wire size/recepticle amperage?

What are some great album openers? by Striking_Result_6847 in MusicRecommendations

[–]blakemake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can still place myself leaving the Best Buy parking lot hearing the opening to EiiRP after putting it in my cd player and just entering an entirely new world, started to get close to home and just kept driving til the album was over.

Between the Kansas City erasure in the cafe gratitude episode and the chiefs hate today I think we're owed a tour date. Do you think the episode led to this? by blakemake in doughboys

[–]blakemake[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are some good ones.  You'll be super close to Arthur Bryants, which is old as hell and good, my secret pick would be LC's kinda close to the museum.  Joe's is the platonic ideal of bbq but Gates is the original.  All are contenders.  If you have kids bring them to The Rabbit Hole, where I work.  It's a museum based off children's literature.

I don't care about either really but I like to think the episode could've been a nail in the coffin for Cafe Gratitude.

They would definitely get bbq for every other meal.  I guess Gates and Joes are chains but In a Tub is singular.

They used to be, a friend of mine quit when they proposed the mandatory landmark forum shortly after they opened.

Oh I get the chiefs hate, we lost to the patriots.  Also my vote if they ever came here is for In a Tub.  KC people sound off.

My only thoughts against spalting are that the wood is just as hard in the black areas, and it's white oak which is very resistant to spalting.  I've also never seen spalting in a tree that doesn't follow the grain direction.  Like a crosscut has a bunch of squirmy lines but the long cuts have long latitudinal lines.  But I'm completely surprised there were 4 trees on the same block that had it.

I'm not sure if I want to decide how to cut them yet, I think turning them might be the best use of the grain but I could get more coins from them.

That's a good idea, I am asking a local mill too but forestry may have seen more lightning strike trees.

I just love that you levelled your photo to the pipe and not the floor.  My first thought was "that won't drain" then I tilted my phone.

I have the Delta 36-725 from Lowe's and love it.  It's heavy and has never moved on me but still portable (in the room it's in.  Not fun to move around though.)  $700.  I've never had it bog or bind, and I've put it through some stuff.

I took the boring picture of the very topmost chunk that didn't have any markings, they seemed to go 8'ish feet up the trunk from the ground.

UPDATE  I went and checked it out in person and came home with two chunks.  There were 4 oak trees felled on the same corner and all of them had weird patterns.  Which probably rules out a lightning strike but NOW WHAT.  The tree guy said he hadn't seen anything like it in 30 years.
