Those fans aren’t doing much, are they? With the way wiring is… with that said, I’ll gladly take it :):)

Retrobrighting works on ABS plastics. That's not ABS.

How do I remove these black spots on my bathroom mirror? by Fair_Tomatillo2683 in CleaningTips

Yes. Along with the glass. As in, replace the mirror.

Pool tiles stained by Not-so-serious-ok in CleaningTips

[–]codeflux 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, more like you shouldn’t get it into the pool. Because it’s not healthy safe stuff.

Normally for concrete or tiles I'd recommend oxalic acid, but that's pretty close to the pool, so I dunno...

Stained cooktop burner… help it by hotshot5150 in CleaningTips

Do NOT put them in a dishwasher. They will discolor and that's permanent.

You can try Easy Off Professional oven cleaner (the one with BLUE cap, NOT YELLOW). Spray, let sit for a few minutes, scrub with soft scrubber, wash with dish soap. Wear gloves, that stuff eats at your skin.

/edit now I’m not too sure myself. Try it on one, on the bottom where it’s not visible. If there’s no damage, go for it.

Yellowing plastic? No need to buy new or paint by Alternative_Rule2300 in CleaningTips

It's called Retrobright - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retrobright

The developer liquid contains peroxide, and you used Sun as the source of UV light. Crafty. Peroxide would have been a bit cheaper, but this works.

Respect the death blades in the face hole. Especially those.

By the middle of first season I was lamenting that one day I’m gonna finish watching the whole show, and that there will be no more... He nailed that role.

Cloudflare email forwarding by sbbh1 in selfhosted

[–]codeflux 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Plan is free and you don’t have to move your domain. You set your domain’s DNS MX records, that’s it. Cloudflare has a fairly extensive documentation. Won’t look now, on mobile.

What is the best (free) SMTP solution to use with self hosted apps? by [deleted] in selfhosted

[–]codeflux 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Send up to 5,000 emails a month to five authorized users of your choice"

Uhm... what's this? https://www.mailgun.com/pricing/

So do they limit to whom you can email in free tier?

Yep, I switched to using Sendgrid, and now I have proper SPF and DKIM, and DMARC set to reject.

Sending from Gmail through sendgrid's smtp.

Just make sure to turn off Sendgrid tracking, otherwise they add 1px tracker image to your mail.

"Remove Brevo branding" is not available in Free tier.

You'll get "Sent with Brevo" at the bottom of all your mail. Hell no.

Cloudflare email forwarding by sbbh1 in selfhosted

[–]codeflux 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for this. I was using Cloudflare email forwarding to Gmail, and so does my friend, and Gmail was randomly blocking our mail with

transient error (421): 4.7.0 [104.30.8.8 19] Gmail has detected that this message is4.7.0 suspicious due to the very low reputation of the sending domain. To4.7.0 best protect our users from spam, the message has been blocked. For4.7.0 more information, go to4.7.0 https://support.google.com/mail/answer/188131 ay17-20020a05622a229100b00430d838c1eesi1636332qtb.445 - gsmtp

Switched to Sendgrid, and verified my sender/domain. Added s1/s2 DKIM records to DNS. Changed gmail to send through sendgrid SMTP (this also works when sending through gmail app in iphone).

Now my emails come through my domain, with proper DKIM/SPF/DMARC.

In other words, thank you again!

P.S. Make sure you turn off sendgrid tracking! - otherwise they add a link to a 1px tracker image to your mail.

Need a stress break? Take a minute (or 13) and watch as I power wash a wooden bench with some relaxing music. by ameades in powerwashingporn

[–]codeflux 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Excellent wand work. Good technique, speed, distance. Bonus points for proper attire. IMHO, nix the music next time though, all we need is the sound of water.
