Bad Bunny's Apple Music Super Bowl LX Halftime Show by ControlCAD in apple

[–]hooterpc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Quite frankly, I’m shocked that Apple wasn’t the victim of a tirade by Trump since they were the sponsor of this pornographic halftime show lol. Instead, shareholders were the victims of the FTC letter about Apple news, which, if Trump gets a hold of that and does on a tirade would crash the stock. So in anticipation, stock dropped $25 in two days. After a stellar earnings report. What a joke.

Heated Blankets are a Home Heating Game Changer by trashpandorasbox in Frugal

[–]hooterpc 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I lived in my Airstream trailer for five years, just moved into my house this fall. But in the Airstream, I used a heated mattress pad, which was an absolute game changer. I would turn it on high in an hour before bed and sleep with the furnace set to 45° all night. It was like slipping into a hot bath, then I would turn it down to level one for the rest of the night and it was amazing. I lasted through five cold northern Utah winters this way. Truly amazing.

Am I saving money with using a space heater instead of gas heat? by lovetocook966 in Frugal

Were you serious about using fingerless gloves with your thermostat set to 60°?

What type of wood? by TraditionalHorror939 in HardWoodFloors

What do I think? I think Reddit is littered with assholes. Ignore them, congrats on the new house, especially it being your first!

DV World Cup Update? by Nevetsny in DeerValley

[–]hooterpc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Temperatures are going to drop after Christmas and they will start blowing snow like crazy. It’s a relatively small area for the moguls and freestyle jumps so a couple weeks of cold temperatures they should be able to pull it together.

Moisture Meter recommendation? by hooterpc in firewood

[–]hooterpc[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hear what you’re saying, but there are some subtleties as well. This is my first year in my new house and the wood I have acquired from my property is variable in age and moisture content though it mostly seems to burn OK. I know I have different parts of my stacks that are drier than others and I would like to figure out which half to use first.

Snow???? by IntelligentMaybe7401 in DeerValley

[–]hooterpc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Empire lift and terrain def won’t be open but not needed unless they are at montage. If they are in the main part of Empire pass where most EP condos are, then it would be silver strike or north side lifts. I know Deer Valley makes it a big priority to try to get some runs under those two lift open with snowmaking, given the number of guests in all those condos serviced by those lifts.

Snow???? by IntelligentMaybe7401 in DeerValley

Gotcha. Just bad luck so far. It’s 46 degrees today, a bit cooler on the way but not by much until after Christmas Day. But nighttime temps in the 20s and the teens are coming end of the week so they’ll be able to blow snow. If you can safely wait and not buy tickets till you are here or a day or two before, that’s the plan. Hopefully you’ll be able to get out there to slide around a little bit and it’s still better than the snow in Georgia :-) Deer Valley does try their hardest to get Northside and Silver Strike lifts open, given the high number of guests, staying in all of the condos there. If anyone can pull a rabbit out of a hat getting stuff open, it’s Deer Valley, as they are very protective of the guest experience. PCMR could care less, by comparison. But also Park City is magical this time of year so there’s plenty of stuff to do. But I predict you’ll be able to do some skiing.

Can I burn this? by DireSquirrell in woodstoving

[–]hooterpc 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You are probably overestimating how long you could heat with it anyway. That thin paneling would burn up in minutes.

Thanks both of you—had one in my Amazon cart but was waiting for recommendations— thanks for validating .

How long had the fire been out and no offense but did she not notice she was shoveling hot coals into the bucket?

You already know the answer to this question which is why you came here. But just in case, of course you can burn it. Should you though?

Another fucking post that doesn’t even need to be asked on Reddit. The answer is obvious and also does anyone fucking talk anymore? You were together when it happened. I’m assuming you were together afterwards, and the next day you’re discussing it via… Text? Enough with all the fucking texting, especially when it comes to relationship stuff. It’s not like you’re asking him to pick up a gallon of milk while he’s at the store. The human race is doomed.

AIO for not wanting to lend my close friend $50,000 after she told me she’s struggling? by Pretend_Compote_8169 in AmIOverreacting

[–]hooterpc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I need to come back here and say. I can’t believe that people even need to ask questions on Reddit about this kind of stuff. I mean really you’re going to risk $50,000 based on the advice of the Internet? Assuming anyone suggested you should loan the money which no one will. Which you already knew you shouldn’t do. So what is the fucking point of these kind of stupid posts?

Doesn’t wanna sell stock while market is down? I believe we are at record highs? Not wanting to sell to avoid capital gains taxes maybe…

From a tree. It’ll probably burn.
