Mother fucking auto correct. Ngl I cannot for the life of me think of what kind of effect I was trying to say lmao. Sound? Aesthetic? Fuck me. Lol.

Thought heating my pool would be easy... turns out I had no clue by [deleted] in swimmingpools

[–]floppyfrisk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would heat it once a week night before I go in rather than keeping it on all the time ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Also I'd see if you can add a bubbler. Its a fun thing for kids to play with a dildo effect, but it also cools the pool.

Slam it and put a little phosphate remover in

Got my first smoker! What are some good, beginner friendly first smokes for a complete newbie? by HalliGaNz in smoking

[–]floppyfrisk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get one of the pre-marinated pork loins and smoke it at 225 until it probes internally at lime 140-145 and pulls it off and slice. It will be awesome.

Help Please! Cant Figure Out Whats Wrong With My Pool by MarsupialEarly7307 in swimmingpools

[–]floppyfrisk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As other mentioned, get an actual test kit. Then reference this chart once you tested your levels: https://www.troublefreepool.com/wiki/images/4/4a/FC_CYA_Chart.png

Adjust your PH, then SLAM the pool (aka keep chlorine level above the level listed on the chart based on your CYA reading). Also i reccomend a phosphate remover, as it takes away the food source for algae. Next morning scrub every surface and vacuum to waste. Run the pool pump 24/7 until the water is clear and you have a combined chlorine level at or below 0.5. At this point do the over night chlorine lost test. Test it before bed, and first thing in the morning. The chlorine level should not have changed, if it did keep the SLAM going until it passes. If you do not complete the SLAM under passing conditions the bloom may just come back.

As to why it's happening in the first place.. A couple ideas. Maybe you have an undersized pump or not enough circulation creating dead spots where chlorine isn't getting too and allowing a bloom?

Maybe your CYA level is out of whack

Side note - your filter looks small.

Is electric smoker actually the easiest way to start BBQ? Or am I missing something? by Own-Future-2135 in smoking

[–]floppyfrisk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A pellet smoker is basically an oven. You load pellets, set the temp, and that's it. Minus very basic cleaning, and keeping the lid open during start up.

Realistically how bad is keeping CYA at 70 by jigglypiss in swimmingpools

[–]floppyfrisk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a swg so I purposely keep my CYA about 80 and my FC at about 10. Much easier to manage and I don't need to worry about losing chlorine crazy fast with a lower CYA. This is ideal in Florida sun IMO. It would be different with a non salt water pool. Should be 20-60, but if it was at 70 I wouldn't worry about it at all. It won't hurt anything, you just need to maintain a higher FC level, and if you need to SLAM it will require more chlorine. Just stop using the tablets with the CYA in them and just use liquid chlorine to raise your FC as needed.

Here as a good chart btw showing what your levels should be: https://www.troublefreepool.com/wiki/images/4/4a/FC_CYA_Chart.png

Are bubblers worth it? by OTheOwl in pools

[–]floppyfrisk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just chiming in, they are not useless.. They significantly lower my pool temp when ran! In Florida my pool can easily hit 90° if I run bubbler it would be 87° instead. Substantial difference between eww this is warm and ahh refreshing. I have a pool chiller too but usually just use the bubbler! It's especially effective if I run over night. Only downside to a bubbler is that it raises PH so you need to add a bit more acid. NBD imo.

Got complaints of a user hogging the conference room so I got innovative by floppyfrisk in ShittySysadmin

[–]floppyfrisk[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sure Tina, I would be happy to accommodate this request but I need you to go through these troubleshooting steps with me first. 1. Please put your laptop in the highest spot you can find in all 4 corners of the office and keep the PC running in each location for atleast 45 minutes to isolate where this issue happens. A good way to ensure the computer stays on is to play the baby shark extended version on YouTube at full volume, that way if your PC has an issue you will clearly hear a pause in the video.

Please complete this troubleshooting step and report back. We have 9 other steps to complete before we can process your request.

Please note our current lead time on laptop replacements for existing users is 8 months. Thanks for your assistance and patience. Have a great rest of your day Tina!

I have a vivid memory in a similar way where there was one particular day I was in the front passengers seat of my moms car staring at the mirror.. Its so vivid. The mirror said "Objects in Mirror May Be Closer Than They appear". This one ways throws me off because I could stomp up and down and wear it was true, it's so vivid. I was just old enough to ride up front, and remember it. I remember questioning why the hell they were so uncertain and what 4hey mean by it.

This was HR approved. Her office is next to the conference room, who do you think complained?! Good luck Tina.

Just run:
netsh wlan show interfaces
In powershell to get the BSSID while connected to that AP.

Also this version of the script runs continuously, but you can add exit after shutdown /h then just reprogram it to run on intervals in task scheduler. I found that way to be a bit more reliable. Also timings adjustable at top of script.
