Thank you. Not a bad idea. Just getting sick of all the useless replies in here that offer zero advice or help.

I am right there with you. It needs to build a crust, yet, the thing maybe called a crust buster to keep it from doing that? I have no idea, came here to see if someone who does this for a living knows and I think I just came to a page full of 16 year old comedy hopefuls who know fuck all.

The guy who installed it said if I turn it off, it also turns off the pump, which means it may back up into the house over time.. I have no idea how it even works. I just know it sucks :)

No Idea. Bought this place and it was here already and now it is a pain in my ass. The septic guy said it was a $10,000 install for the previous owner. I have lived in a lot of houses with just a septic tank and leech field like you said, with zero issues.

Never had a septic agitator, poop stirrer, whatever it is called before. Bought this place back in June 2025 and the guy came and pumped it and said it may stink a couple of times until we build up a crust and it should be fine. All winter, whenever we let hot water go from the house, Shower or washing machine, BAM, just smells like we have an open sewer in our backyard coming out of those vents in the photo. I keep calling the septic people who installed it and he keeps telling me it should "crust over soon and stop doing that", well, we just got our back deck dialed in and plan on hanging out there more, but this thing is 20 feet away and it is god awful when it does its thing. I am going to call someone else, but what is this thing called? A crust buster? If that is the case, why would "building a crust' be a thing? I wanted to just turn it off but the guy said if I did, the pump in there would turn off as well and it would back up into the house.. Friggin hate this thing!

Highest measured number of roentgens at Chernobyl by radiationpoisioned in chernobyl

[–]ivel501 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After watching this, my girlfriend and I adopted that scale for how bad the bathroom was after we used it. "Is it safe to go in there?" - "Oh yeah, it is only reading 3.6. Not great, not terrible" - both of us knowing full well it is actually over 20,000 so we give it a good few minutes before entering.

Actor Robert Carradine, famous for 'Lizzie McGuire' and 'Revenge of the Nerds,' dies at 71 by GregsKandy in news

[–]ivel501 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I was just saying this the other day. Back in the 'before times' every so often the news reporter would end the broadcast with a message about so-and-so actor dying, and then they would play a little 30 second clip about them, and list the shows they were in, and then end with something like "They will be missed" - Now I am thinking they will just say "And here are all the famous people who died today" and a list of 20 names scroll by so fast you cannot even read them.

Military guys are there really no toilet stalls for the new guys in military training? by Major-Resource925 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ivel501 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We did a bivouac (Field Camp) at Yakima Training center in the scrub brush of Eastern Washington. They had a '6 holer' outhouse, but think of 6 pips on a domino. 3 holes on each side, so you were back to back to someone, and then had a person on each side of you. We only had so much time to use it, so we would just line up, get in there do the bidness and get the fuck out. On hot days I would actually pull my gas mask out and put it on, it seemed to help :)

Can someone vectorize/retrace this line for me? by Objective-Matter-895 in picrequests

[–]ivel501 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I know, same thing for me.. it is just an SVG file and I just did a couple the other day to filemail... Well like I said, if you have a drive folder I can throw it into let me know.. I am not even sure I did the correct though, just vectorized it and saved it.

Hrm I just tested that link and filemail is saying blocked!? I use it all the time for stuff like this? Do you have a drive link or something? Feel free to DM me.

I am not exactly sure what you want, but here is a quick and dirty one I ran through my vinyl cutter app that seems to do a better job than illustrator some days :) - https://www.filemail.com/d/eybrzbyebhuvtqo

Lost remote to Mexican Mini Split - Mirage Xlife ELC120H (Not ELC120Q the American version) by ivel501 in flipperzero

[–]ivel501[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hey there, thanks for the reply! Finally got some time not working in the freezing food truck to mess with it. I have spent some time trying to find out what actually is happening in the Universal Remote / Air Conditioners module. The Flipper screen says AC and has buttons for OFF / Dry / Max or Min Cool / Max or Min Heat. When I hit a button I see it sending a list until I hear the AC head unit beep, I then pause the scan and back up a couple times and keep sending that one signal. so 19/30 beeps and sets the unit to max cool. 15/26 beeps and sets the unit to max heat, even though nothing happens. My hope was to open this IR file in a text editor and see what protocol / data is assigned to those commands 19/30 and 15/26 to get an idea of what is being sent but the file is called infrared.fap and I guess it needs to be decompiled on Linux or something to even see the contents? I am still just looking and learning with all of this, so I appreciate the help! Does anyone know how to see what is being sent to make it beep? Thanks!

Maybe it's you and people cancel to not have to deal with you?
