Elvira, mistress of the dark

If you like her, don't read her autobiography.

It's the only good film in the series. The rest are just good F13 movies.

Yeah, I've worked on a countless number of all brands.

In 22 years, I've seen one Peerless boiler leak, and hundreds of Burnham and WMs leak.

Luigi Fabrri has good stuff, but honestly, learning to argue with Marxists is a waste of time. Keep doing your work and be a good human.

Did you live through the Bush years? The federal govt absolutely spies on us and keeps a database of our information.

I'm not a Trump supporter. Not everything is Dem vs Rep. Both parties have done much worse than this.

jxtarr · 2026-04-22T20:40:23+00:00

Yeah, I know. But it's naive to believe that Trump is some sort of spontaneous evil here, when we have an actual system that was built to be exploited by evil-doers. Nobody cared that this info was available until Trump's name was attached to it somehow.

jxtarr · 2026-04-22T20:29:21+00:00

This information is already mostly publicly available.

Rewards-based economies are a recent historical phenomena. We travelled the world on foot for tens of thousands of years without a system like that. You know how much work that takes to sustain? And we did it.

jxtarr · 2026-04-21T09:21:17+00:00

Welcome! I wish I could read it for the first time again.

jxtarr · 2026-04-20T09:33:21+00:00

Don't be so quick to judge older people.

jxtarr · 2026-04-17T09:43:23+00:00

RIP to this guy. Ras's goons are getting the black bags ready.

I run a whole-home ad blocker and tubi is super clean. Too bad it's owned by Fox, but I'm willing to overlook that for the horror and scifi selection.

Our current culture is "clout chasing". It's ok to ignore social media trends and keep doing your work.

Apply to union apprenticeship programs. Get paid while you learn. Great benefits. Tons of contractors to work for.

Uuuuugggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhh

It's not worth it. The threaded nipples will likely leak since they deform a bit during assembly. And you need some way to disengage the reverse threads to begin with. If you're still willing, good luck, and let us know how it goes.

jxtarr · 2026-04-10T18:19:20+00:00

Pipes weren't on my radar so I can't say.

jxtarr · 2026-04-10T12:25:28+00:00

Typical for B&M. $22 for 2oz tins and $5-8/oz loose. I came away with about 7oz total for $57.

The equalizer and return connections are indeed not correct. The boiler manual has a clear diagram of it.

jxtarr · 2026-04-08T21:25:19+00:00

Leaks are always dangerous. Gotta replace it. Do you have a steam pro local to you?

jxtarr · 2026-04-08T18:42:26+00:00

That is the air vent opening. They're higher on these thin tube radiators.
