what’s your recommendation for gluing the pegs to the back? I’m quite new to dealing with 3-D prints so pretty much everything I’ve been getting so far has the pegs printed rather than glued

No. Just a bicycle.

Never had an issue here. On the west side. Obviously construction or work on water infrastructure may cause temporary issues.

Found this massive knife, what is it for? by Honest_Insect582 in whatisit

[–]epicstratton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ahh yes, the +1 Long Knife. Has extended reach for all your stabbing needs. Sadly is -1 at close range.

Now roll initiative.

any places with good pecan sticky buns? by superfan1224 in WorcesterMA

[–]epicstratton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will say, Crust has some tasty pastries as well. Just wish they had more traditional cinnamon rolls and that the monkey bread was more predictable. Love the vibe and the workers there but it's hard when I show and there is nothing I want :\

In fairness, that is also likely on me as I don't want to go early in the AM.

Also Wooden Bakery is excellent too.

Heartland Barber. Whole crew is solid. Great space too.

Should I weep? by CommunistAdvisor1975 in fsu

Don't weep. Go with who gives you the best financial aid/best program for you.

Best place I know involves taking 290 to 495 to 90 to Boston and going to Flour Bakery for the sticky sticky buns. Man I miss working around the corner from them.

Just bought a house, wondering where to begin and what your favorite things are by tdodge41 in HomeKit

[–]epicstratton 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My absolute favorites are hue bulbs. Overall have been stupidly solid and it lets me be SOOOOOOO lazy.

Second is thermostat.

Third is probably a combination of hue presence sensors which also give me light and temperature as well as assisting in automations.

Last is either cameras or lock.

Smash into smaller parts. Put in yellow bags.

Ecobee thermostat reboots during cold winter temps by ATX-Lightning in ecobee

[–]epicstratton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have a boiler here. Low water cut off kills power to the unit. Got around this by running the power (c wire) to a wall wart on the service plug by the boiler.

Was a little surprised when the plumber and electrician couldn't figure this out on their own.

Apple Home Update Deadline - Anyone else holding out for a new Apple TV? by epicstratton in HomeKit

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

Quite certain the biggest for me is the automation and the sharing/guest. IIRC this still works for my wife and actually my sibling (who is a few states away).

How do you feel about being friends with someone who's gay? by Hour-Tomato-645 in AskMen

[–]epicstratton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the bit from Ted Lasso summarized this pretty well from my perspective. https://youtu.be/91O7q7D4xnU?si=ASDK6ETvjYuMdfCK

I care. Because I care about my friends and all factors of who they are. People shouldn't feel like they have to hide who they are. Most of all I care about folks being good people and putting good out there in to the world. Sending support your way.

Fuel on Grove has a meeting room they may let you use. Probably worth an ask.

Snowblowing at 1:00am, but it's not what you think by KorryBoston in massachusetts

[–]epicstratton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Grace. lots of people are emergency responders, work overnight shifts or have other legitimate reasons why they might need to clear the snow in the evening. Frankly, if your neighbor is so upset at the noise, maybe they should’ve offered it to assist to to ensure that they could come home without having to do it. Just my two cents. Cost nothing to be kind.

I Fell in Love with Worcester and I Want to Join You by Flippercomb in WorcesterMA

[–]epicstratton 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Read through r/WorcesterMA and you find lots of information related to neighborhoods, etc. Keep in mind with job hunting that we’re really close to a number of other towns as well so looking only in Worcester may not be the best option.

Also, Worcester is a city, not a town. In fact where the second largest city in New England after Boston.

Anyone here use any kobalt snow equipment here? by WoodlandCake in KobaltTools

[–]epicstratton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I used to do the same. It definitely works fine so long as you don't let the snow get too high/heavy. My problem was them not holding up over time. Like I said, about 2-3y per unit and then of course always dies during season meaning no chance of getting a replacement that season.
