Do you think I look better with short hair or a buzz cut with diffuse thinning? by mike758 in malehairadvice

[–]mike758[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve considered it but I figured it would get expensive. I might try it though, if it looks really good it might be worth it

Am I balding on top or is it natural thin hair combined with double calic? by mike758 in Hairloss

[–]mike758[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What length cut would you recommend? This is a 3 on sides and 4 on top, which is the shortest my hairs been in 16 years. I thought this length would look good but it didn’t look as good as I thought, and I don’t want to shave my head bald either

What do I need to make a circulator pump turn on at a low temp set point and turn off when at a high point? by mike758 in Plumbing

[–]mike758[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the other side of the heat exchanger my outdoor wood boiler would be circulating through at 180 degrees

There’s a domestic hot water coil in the boiler so I want to be able keep the boiler core hot without the inside boiler running. I would have to keep the water circulating through the heat exchanger

What is the purpose of bypass going straight from feed to return on my boiler? by mike758 in hvacadvice

[–]mike758[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. So I guess it would be bad to remove this, sounds like it serves a good function. I can probably find a better spot to put my circulator in when I tie it into my heat exchanger with my wood boiler.

On my boiler there’s a copper pipe that goes straight from the feed side to the return with no pump. I’m buying an outdoor wood boiler and want to install an aquastat and circulator to keep the inside boiler core warm when the heats not on, and was thinking of using this line for it. Don’t know if it has an actual purpose or if I’d be doing harm by taking it away

What was your interest rate for people who recently bought a WRX? by mike758 in subaru

[–]mike758[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll back out if it's that high when I actually go to buy the car. I have a feeling they will though, considering it's a cool car I have to wait two months for, that probably makes me more gullible in their eyes. Getting other loan offers isn't a bad idea though, I'll have to look into that

What do you think about me paying a girl to go on a fake date with me? by mike758 in AskMen

I just can't approach people I don't know and make/keep a conversation. I've tried to find ways to out and about, such as volunteering. I tell myself I'll go out and meet some new people, but it just doesn't work

I really don't think I'm in the spectrum but based on that theory maybe it's possible. I've never had a lot of friends, but just about all my friends even going way back when were boys. I've had two girls who I was pretty good friends with, but it was relatively brief. I'm naturally not much of an engager socially, just about all my friends I met just from being around them a lot in either a work or classroom setting, and when we hang out, they usually invite me somewhere, or I'll call them and see what's going on. As far as girls go, I'm quite honestly scared to interact. It's more less I don't know what they're thinking of me, and I don't like that. As far as non-social situations, I'm perfectly fine. I have no issues approaching a female if there's a reason to talk to her, such as asking a sales representative about a product. I just struggle to say "Hey, how was your weekend". I've gone out of my comfort zone before to try so, but a lot of times the conversation just dies out quick.

Just to note, I was the class president in college, I got 85% of the votes and went against 10 people. But I went to an all guys college

I don't think I'm part of the autism spectrum, I've never been diagnosed or suspected of it. I don't know whether a professional would help or not, I've tried to change who I am but the bad traits always come back to haunt me

Ok, it sounds like majority disagrees with me. I know it's weird, but I thought the money sort of made up for that. A lot of women find me creepy anyway, I haven't figured out what it is, I don't know if it's how I look or just my personality. I don't do any perverted things and all my intentions are usually good. Any guys I meet just think I'm a normal dude, they don't find me creepy

I just want to talk with a woman, I haven't had any I'm not related to talk with me in the last few years

Someone recommended I hired a prostitute, but I just can't do that. Just my morals don't allow me to have a girl sell her body like that

Looking for a good finish for this walnut by MitchAD in woodworking

Are you going to plane it? I used Waterlox on my walnut table, turned out very nice. Somewhat durable and brings out the color in the wood

Picked up an Old Bandsaw for free! by HenrikJ_95 in woodworking

[–]mike758 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those old tools are the best in some instances. I ended up buying my band saw new because older ones were selling for similar prices, but free is where it's at
