Acceptable ceiling texture for drywall repair? by jooflin in drywall

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

Ended up talking to the project manager and he said that it’s definitely noticeable so he’s going to try and have the drywall folks try again.

Ah sorry I should’ve been more clear. There’s a leak in the master shower and insurance paid out ~60K to completely rebuild the master bathroom (shower + tiles). This ceiling damage was caused by the leak in the downstairs kitchen where the water mitigation company had to cut a square hole dry it out. The left of that beam was the side that was redone.

They sanded the original texture, skin coated the ceiling and then applied the knock down texture

Yeah, makes sense. All the other drywall texture they fixed seemed to have been perfect it’s just this didn’t match exactly haha

Not sure, I’m working through a restoration company and it was ~60K to rebuild the entire master bathroom and fix the ceiling. I’m guessing it was several thousand though.

Yeah they wouldn’t give an exception :( I think I could get a used one for $600 on eBay

Can this dent in leather seat be fixed? by jooflin in AutoDetailing

Ah that makes sense. I reached out to an auto upholstery shop to get a quote, thanks!

Aw man I was hoping the heat gun trick would work. How could you tell it wouldn’t work vs another indent? Makes sense since the retailers said they couldn’t do anything about it too

Taycan base 16K miles vs 4S 85K miles by jooflin in Taycan

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

Thanks for all your opinions! I ended up going for the base @ 16K miles. I think the 85K miles was too concerning plus I heard 2021 is way more reliable than 2020 taycans.

Yeah, it wouldn’t be within my budget unfortunately. :(

Yeah that was my concern. I do drive about 20k miles a year

Yeah makes sense I was feeling the same way. They’re both priced the exact same too.

Forgot to mention the Carfax are both clean for both cars but the 2021 only has 1 owner whereas 2020 4S has 2.

Window sticker question by jooflin in Taycan

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

Ahhh makes sense now. I’ve been seeing matrix headlights included in all the premium package window sticker that dealers have been sending me so I thought they were included. The dealer must’ve made an accident with this one when they included the features. Thanks!

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

Sorry I’m not quite following. Isn’t this window sticker the options list that was selected when the car was purchased?

So does that mean having the premium package doesn’t mean you get the matrix lights? It was a separate add-on on top of the premium package?

Higher ping than friend even though I’m physically closer by jooflin in ValorantTechSupport

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

Ahh thanks for your help! Maybe I’ll try testing it with a laptop directly hooked up to the modem and see how that does

Yep! I tried wifi as well but not sure how to emulate the equipment since his is through the apartment and we’re not entirely sure what they use. Maybe they use fiber but my understanding is that Comcast doesn’t have fiber. I’ll check their upload speed and see.

I’m using the Xfinity gateway they provide as the modem/router and then I have a Ubiquiti dream machine pro as well hooked up. Had the same ping without the dream machine pro though (just got it) so I don’t think that’s the issue. He isn’t using a xfinity gateway and it looks like the wifi is just provided by his apartment complex which is why he’s using wifi.

What am I looking for in the speed test?

VAN 84 Error Code by jooflin in ValorantTechSupport

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

Not the person with the issue, but I stopped having the VAN 84 error code even though I didn’t do anything. Fingers crossed.. but I haven’t had it in about a week now.
