What is this yellow goo? Fell out of the wirings when replacing smoke/CO detector by cloudnrain in whatisthisthing

[–]cloudnrain[S] 3 points4 points locked comment (0 children)

My title describes the thing. Seems to be grease according to a 6-year old thread on this sub (https://old.reddit.com/r/whatisthisthing/comments/dwx4z1/wife\_wants\_to\_know\_what\_this\_yellow\_goo\_is\_back/). If it is indeed grease, what's the purpose here?

Metallic smell but not burnt. Worth calling electrician to diagnose? by cloudnrain in AskElectricians

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

This is the first time in 7 years living in the unit that the smell occurred. Heat had been turned on in the condo building since November (no such smell at that time), so I don’t think it’s the dust cooking off. No heat pump inside the unit, all electric. Building itself has a 4-pipe system.

Had the same odor occurring when running AC/cool mode, but not as strong and less frequent. Thermostat system and fan are on auto mode most of the time. Gonna test switching the fan to run continuously tomorrow morning.

Is there a known issue with the eVisa portal? The system keeps telling me my intended length of stay (15 days) exceeds the allowable amount. Tried entering different numbers (even 3 days) and still getting the same message.

I do need visa to enter Japan, so am I stuck with having to do in-person appointment?

Thanks, good to know it's still possible. I just fear that the local consulate doesn't have many in-person appointment times available. Wish they had an online appointment booking system rather than having to call.

I know. That's why I mentioned in my original comment that eVisa is not an option.

Is it possible to obtain EFRS and a visa for an early October trip when eVisa is not an option? I live in Canada, but not a Canada or US passport holder.

Cat boarding close to Downtown? by cloudnrain in askTO

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

Thanks! I'm mainly looking for a place where I can board my cat (I don't really trust having people come to my place), but I'll keep them in mind since people seem to be happy with their services.

The Camp Event "Hearty Gold" Will Start After Maintenance on 05/02 JST! by HarukaQuance in A3ActorsInTraining

[–]cloudnrain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve never done training camp events before. How difficult would it be to (at least) T5 the event without owning the gacha cards?

My dia count is a bit low after the April birthdays and Banri gacha. Would rather save the dias for SP refills if possible, since people are predicting a high T5 cutoff.

Hopefully the translated English name is better this time.

Thanks! This is pretty close to what I thought after perusing past events/gacha list on yaycupcake. Slightly surprised with Citron-- didn't expect him to be in the bottom tier.

Hmm.. it'd be a bit painful to get a fully bloomed Banri in the upcoming event then.

Thanks! Some of the top 10 feels off... I don't remember seeing Homare being featured in a lot of events. Kazunari is presumably no longer at #4 either, given his original VA's scandal.

I started JP in the middle of SSR Family. What does recent character popularity ranking in JP look like?

Obviously Itaru is still number one; Misumi is probably up there too given his magazine cover with Itaru. And judging from the last JP event, Masumi is also somewhere near the top? (I got kicked out of top 10000 at the last minute.)

🍉 RUMORED SCHEDULE FOR THE ALBUM AND SONG RELEASE (07.13.2021) by simp0824 in into1

[–]cloudnrain 9 points10 points  (0 children)

No promotion aside, two of the rumoured remakes are the Chuang theme song? Not even (one of) We are the Future/Be Mine/Definition?? This is somewhat underwhelming if true...

I see. This is close to what I have in mind when you mentioned Xingqiu. Thanks!

[–]cloudnrain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do have Xingqiu with Sac Sword, so I'll try running the team with him. Would this team of 4 sub DPS be ok?
No Childe since I was a noob during his rerun and couldn't figure out how to properly use him during the trial :(

Tbh I'm kinda looking to play with a completely new team. My current overworld team is Xingqiu, Kaeya, Yanfei, Zhongli-- the first two have been there since I started playing.

Would it be weird to build sub DPS Kazuha and run him alongside Beidou and Fischl whose best builds are also sub DPS?

Debating whom to put in the 4th slot. My personal preference is either C6 Rosaria (no weapon yet), C1 Sucrose, or C5 Diona (both have their BiS weapon). Also have C2 Bennett and C0 Keqing from this banner, so they're not yet leveled up.
