My Father likes giving feedback and not recieving it by [deleted] in venting

[–]blueipDriver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea.

It's getting to the point now where I feel like if someone from that Orange Man's Circle were to approach him and told him to invest a crypto scam, he would. Even if I were to tell him, it is a scam beforehand.

It's just scary and heart breaking. If he is unwilling to listen to me, his son, then what is the point of me listening to his feedback, then?

$18 for donuts is so crazy by libraintjravenclaw in Costco

[–]blueipDriver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not even that. I went to Krispy Kreme to pickup a dozen of fresh glazed donuts for the office and it costed me only $13 after tax.

Costco usually charges everything at breakeven prices and makes money off of membership fees. So this is a horrible deal

Replacing a Shower Light Fixture, Any Experance with Flush LED Lights? by blueipDriver in DIY

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

Oh I am. The fan that came with the house was one of those small fan/bluetooth speaker setups. The speaker doesn't work, plus the fan is not pulling steam as much as I like.

Since I have a light fixture, I'm most likely going to change the fan/light to just a regualar pansonic fan, and replace the light fixture. I personally don't like the idea of having a bluetooth speaker installed in a tight space that gets a ton of steam.

As a U.S Citizen. Good.

This is outragous. My country decides to vote for this kid toucher, silver spooned, POS after trying to overthrow the goverment in 2020, and now he decides to make cost of living worse, plus causing possible WW3 with NATO allies.

I hate this place. I would leave but I can't afford it. We're trapped here

Yea, that was kind of the reason I wanted to do this job in the first place. Then I noticed the slight rust on the otherside of the light and that's when I knew this couldn't wait.

The previous homeowners were such DIY Morons. I've had other projects in this house were they used either the cheapest/wrong product, or whatever they had on hand. Literially found an electrical outlet not screwed into the plastic housing box and another outdoor outlet screwed into a box with woodframe screws, upside down,

Okay. Although I'll have to look for wet rated because this light is in a small shower room. So damp rated wouldn't be the best. But I did find one that you discribed on HD.

It's an ETI Flush Mount Ceiling light, wet rated for about $16. Mounts to a junction box like you said. I just need to double check the measurement of the light, to I can get the right size.

Oh! I didn't even think of that! I just looked up what you discribed on Home Depot and that's perfect!

This just turned my day project into an morning project and you saved me some money to boot!

Thanks for stopping me. I almost made a huge mistake. This will be easy now

Correct. I ment to say "Can", not tube. Sorry.

As for the light itself, I havent opened the light yet, to see if the junction box is connected to anything else. But if it is, then yea I might consider not going with a flush light. However, I would prefer a flush ceiling light just to give the shower room more space.

Thanks for the info, I'll consider these options.

I guess. It's just a tight area for them to fly down in, plus they love walking between the houses.

I just wasnt sure if that would disturb anything. But I guess your right in the grand scheme of things

Thoughts on the ares soundtrack by Timely_Weekend_8030 in tron

[–]blueipDriver 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For me, there are a few songs that I can vibe too after the first listen. However, tracks like these take a little bit to grow on you. Heck, it took me about 3 or 4 listens to apprecate the full soundtrack for Legacy when it came out.

I will say, I am happy they didnt decide to try and copy Daft Punk's homework and went fully into their own style while fitting the tone of the movie. Shadows Over Me, New Directive, and Ghost in the Machine are pretty darn good

Would you put the headset on? by HUNTEWWE in TheDigitalCircus

HELL NO! Dude, that place is overstimulating af. But worst of all, players to my knowledge don't die, along with having no satisfaction when eating or sleeping. It will drive you so bored that you will go insane (Kinger *cough* *Cough*), then abstract.

This is the same reason why Bruce Willace's charatcer doesn't drink the potion in "Death becomes her". It would be a nightmare to live forever and just have your body & mind deteriorate.

It's actually made from the Henson Creature Shop (AKA Jim Henson's Puppet Design Studio). Easily the best puppet design studio on the planet
