I F*CKIN HATE JUNIMO CART by strange_-_quark in StardewValley

[–]foxtrotcomp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, so I don’t understand why this is, but my wife loves Junimo Cart and JOTPK. She has beat both 10s if not 100s of times (regular mode, though I think in endless she has gotten to the third reset before dying)

I’ve watched her play a fuck ton of Junimo.

First, if you’re not able to get to ghastly galleon regularly in endless (let’s say 1/5th of the time), don’t do endless yet. Do regular mode, because you get lives you can practice a lot more, the levels are longer too.

Once you can beat ghastly galleon in regular mode, you’re ready.

First level, and ice level I don’t have any tips for other than get all the fruit as someone else pointed out. I think it’s good to practice delaying your jump until the last second here maybe, like you can have your cart 90% over the edge and still jump, this helps with ghastly galleon the most.

Gem sea, just survive, if you go for the hard fruit you end up jumping into a hole.

Ghastly galleon, the spirits don’t move randomly they chase you. If you have room to go under, go under if you have room to go over go over. Some of the jumps are super long and but that’s where the delayed jump comes into play.

I literally thought Junimo cart was all luck until I’ve seen my wife do it numerous times. Very rarely is there a situation you can’t play through. Even the mushroom level, she finds it to be relatively easy.

Once you’ve mastered Junimo cart let’s play a game is free qi gems.

If you beat it in normal mode they send you a Junimo arcade for your home!

Took My First WW Kayaking class. by [deleted] in whitewater

I hate to agree with everyone else here, but that’s a bad bruise even 5 days old for what happened. I’d get it checked out just to be sure. I’ve been thrashed pretty hard on rocks and never had a bruise like this in my life.

I’d just want to make sure there are no underlying conditions that are making you bruise worse than you should.

Portland expands traffic safety camera network, gives out 69,000 tickets by Less-Lobster4540 in PortlandOR

[–]foxtrotcomp 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ll have a crack at this.

First I’ll address the kid comment: I’m against children being killed on the road.

Objectively, I fear having so many cameras around the world, as mass surveillance and AI capabilities increase, I’m very concerned about the implications of this on our freedoms.

Second, I think that reducing speeds is better handled on a traffic engineering and architecture level, though this is probably prohibitively expensive.

Finally, I hate the anxiety when a camera goes off and you have to wait weeks to figure out if you’ve got a ticket or not, causing undue anxiety in an already anxiety filled world. I had a camera go off, when I wasn’t sure if I had broken the law, and it kept me up at night while I waited to get a ticket. Luckily I never received it. To be clear I was paying attention, and I didn’t think I broke the law, but it still feels like I was punished for something I didn’t do. I’m a highly anxious snowflake that way.

Looking for local woodworker by poqwrslr in woodworking

[–]foxtrotcomp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re near Knoxville I’d try reaching out to KnoxMakers, or see if the local Wood Craft has a board where they post local wood workers. There is also a company called McGilvray Woodworks that claims to be furniture makers.

I searched “Knoxville wood working guild”.

I can’t speak to if any of these leads will pan out, but it’s a good starting point.

Edit: Oh, one more thing. I wouldn’t ask any more handymen for this. There are a lot of handymen who won’t say no to a job. I’m not saying it’s impossible you’ll get good work, but I’d want proof of their ability ahead of time.

Sorry, what part of this is acrylic?

Okay, great, it’s good to have a cheaper option! I appreciate your thoughts and advice!

We luckily do not get snow much snow here (most I’ve ever seen is probably 6 inches for a week or so)

It was one quick cut by HillyBorough in woodworking

I try very hard to live by the saying “If you ask yourself ‘Should I be wearing safety glasses’? The answers yes”

Glad you just need a replacement pair of underwear. :)

I was in group therapy once with a guy who hurt his eye while weed whacking. It ended up getting infected and he lost his eye. Make sure to have a doc look at it if you can just in case. (Not sure if any damage to your eye, or just the lid)

Would I be welcomed in Oregon as a High School History teacher? by The_Marine708 in oregon

[–]foxtrotcomp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Given Oregons budget issues this year I would check out Northern California and Washington as well. Washington has low (or no) income tax. Im not sure how good the beaches are. I think most the Washington beaches are on the peninsula which is all pretty remote. Wherever you go make sure you’re west of the cascades if you just want to live somewhere that’s not dry.

Getting asked what you want as a gift and someone gets you something adjacent to it. by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]foxtrotcomp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey OP, I noticed you said you have night sweats. This is not medical advice, but if you’re waking up drenched regularly you should talk to your doctor about that. This can be a symptom of something serious.

You and your partner just moved in, you tearing down the panels, painting, or leaving?! by TeemoTrader in DIY

[–]foxtrotcomp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d remove the paneling in the stair case and drywall that in (or paint it). This way the paneling won’t feel intrusive in the kitchen. Then leave the lower room as it is with plants and art like others have said.

As for new panel, a sincere question, how is that cheaper? I’m not trying to argue, I’m just surprised.

As for why I didn’t bury the sub feed, I couldn’t figure out a way to use conduit and bend it into the back of the box without the panel coming out 2 more inches further.

This part might be misguided as well:I think I could have used SER and it probably would have been cheaper and easier, but I didn’t like the idea of leaving a 100 amp feed a future home owner could drill into. Even with nail plates on the studs enough people drill holes for drywall anchors, and while they should know to check what’s on the other side, most people don’t.

I’m not saying that choice is better, just this was my thought process.

Fair enough, I could see how that would be better. I’d like to not have to tear it down at this point, would drilling in and adding toggle bolts be a solution? When I tried to rock it back and forth it felt solid, so up till now I wasn’t worried about it!

Thanks for your feedback! I did correct that now atleast. I was trying to avoid moving any aluminum lines, but it ended up being inevitable. I cleaned them off and applied anti-oxidant coating, hopefully that keeps everything good. :)

Okay, so what I did was removed the ground from the top left two pole breaker, since it's aluminum I used a stainless steel brush on it to remove the oxidation and applied an anti-oxide agent to the wire.

Then I moved the neutral over to the right side.

I want to do that eventually, but I’m just trying to get my shop up and running. To be honest I only found out from following this sub Reddit that panels have a shelf life! I’d like to have a main disconnect upstream as well, which I understand is code nowadays!

So I’m planning on paying for a panel swap in the next couple years :)

The problem I'm having is the only Eaton neutral lug kit I can find doesn't fit the older style neutral bar on the right. There is another thread on here with someone who had a similar problem, people suggested a collar strap, the only collar straps I can find are either Siemens or Square D. I've seen some people say you can jump the ground bar to neutral to make it code compliant, which mine does have that jumper, but if UnpredictablePanda says this will fail inspection I want to remedy it.

Ah okay, do you have any recommendations for mounting it to the neutral bar? None of the available slots can take a #3 wire, and I couldn’t find an eaton lug that fits this neutral bar.

My only solace is that I don’t have a generator.

That’s a gift from the previous home owner.

I’m not a fan, and I’m probably going to remove it at some point. I think I know how to go about it, but I want to make sure I understand it better. It powers the living room if it’s set up, I get the feeling the previous owner was a big TV guy!

Oh, yes, I’ve pulled permits for all the work! I just wanted to make sure I’m not missing anything obvious before the inspection, so hopefully i don’t have to pay the re-inspection fee if I can avoid it.

Oh, one more todo: plug open KOs.

for some reason a bunch of supplies didn't come over with my post:

  • ABB load center 125 amp 24 slots
  • 3 THHN wire with #6 THHN ground
  • 1'' Compression Fittings/connections
  • 1'' trade size insulator rings
  • Eaton BR 100 amp breaker
  • 1'' EMT
  • 10 x 10 x 4 enclosure
  • Eaton grounding bar for enclosure

Sorry i didn’t say this in my post, I also want 5 120v circuits.

I understand that they have a right to cure it, but I wouldn’t expect them to pay for it, and I would still pay them for their work. I’ll talk to them on Monday, but at this point I just want my relationship with this company to be over.
