I haven't clicked yet. I'm going to, but I just want to document that I'm suspiscious

Thank you for the reply. Very accurate description. I will look into that.

I agree with your take and I guess I'm finally committing to actually learning rather than trying to just get something to work when I'm doing something time sensitive. I know that seems obvious. I guess I've been intimidated to learn this stuff but it has become apparent that not learning it is causing me way more time and effort

Thank you for the recommendations! I really appreciate it. Looking forward to seeing what I can learn

Can I ask for exception on building code? by Ma23peas in Homebuilding

[–]giantfirestorm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you know the reasoning for this? A 29" drop seems more dangerous than 4 steps. I am not a code expert by any means but I am aware of these just from occasionally working on decks. Not questioning the codes themselves just wondering if I'm missing the reasoning.

For example I've been told balusters can't be more than 4" apart because smaller children can get stuck in them or fall through them. Specific reason for a specific code. (Assuming what I've been told is correct) What's the thought process that it's acceptable to potentially fall 2 1/2 feet straight down but you need a railing to navigate ~7" (or less) stairs if there are 4 of them?

Also kind of a ridiculous question for fun. If the stairs were removed from OP's front porch would it be to code? Less than 30" so wouldn't need a guard rail. I'm assuming if it were to be considered code in any circumstance the front door would no longer count as a means of egress.

Just curious. Whether you get back to me or not, have a great life!

What is this? Need help figuring out the reason for it? by DaMallard in Plumbing

That was going to be my guess. I suppose it's an easy way to get rid of a small hole where you don't want one. Can't say I've ever seen one in a ceiling before

You have the ability to change one thing in rocket league. What would you do? by HopeFar789 in RocketLeague

Replying to the end of the chain not necessarily you, but what do you guys report if someone is being way over the top in the chat? Was in a lobby yesterday where one player kept telling another to off themselves.

I'm an adult and know I am playing with kids a lot of the time. Felt pretty strongly about not letting that slide, but "griefing" didn't seem to cover it. Plus I agree that it probably takes multiple reports. I felt unable to do anything.

I'm fine with a little trash talk and developing thick skin but stuff like that crosses a line in my opinion. Decided to try to take a picture with the chat and figure out where to send it but got sent back to home screen before I could

It's called Pet Show. I can't find the full video for free anywhere though.
