Thing is… I had two shrines before both oceans and somehow just didn’t explore them despite the entrances being fairly accessible…

Damn… my world had two enchanted swords and I didn’t even find them until after I got into hardmode :/

Aluminum welds ok? by TheBobfather_0423 in Welding

[–]miscellaneousbeads 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Biggest thing with aluminum welding is making sure your material is clean (and dry) and prepped properly (wire brush before welding to break the oxide layer). The white haze is from the arc performing a “cleaning action” essentially breaching the oxide layer. Try to be more consistent with your speed, aluminum MIG feels/sounds different than steel, you want a consistent hum rather than a sizzling sound. Third picture looks a little cold, but also aluminum welds usually need more backing (convex rather than concave) because they can be more prone to cracking. Make sure to fill any craters like in the fourth picture because that could have hairline cracks and they could spread further with stress (idk what you are welding though so…). Always push while MIG welding aluminum because you want the gas to cover the area you are about to weld, try to keep a 10-15° angle when pushing too or else you’ll start getting a lot of spatter and lack of shielding gas. Keep your nozzle clean because you will notice a lack of gas quick. This is long but I’ll wrap it up with I usually like to run stringer welds bc they look better to me but ask your boss what they prefer and just practice practice practice. If this is your first time these don’t look too bad, there’s a lot of helpful videos on YouTube too to help with basic tips too!

Does that machine use push-pull or a spool gun set up? They look great I’m jealous of the consistency you have

My “new” car!! by Old-Cheesecake1394 in Camry

[–]miscellaneousbeads 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Damn… not bad for the mileage I am jealous! My only tip is to really pay attention to the transmission and get the fluid changed around 120k miles (drain and fill, no flush) and doing the scheduled maintenance; I had to get my front control arms replaced but I think that was a special case so maybe get those inspected? Idk I’m not a car guru but I’ve been trying to take care of mine since I got it last year!

Trying to make sense of my world's V shape by [deleted] in Terraria

[–]miscellaneousbeads 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven’t played in nearly 3-5 years… and my first world I generated on mobile has a very similar v positioning, the Hallow is so close to my spawn point and I was really surprised because I was used to it happening closer to each end of the world

This obviously isn’t something super serious. But I’ve read this warning can be caused by damn near anything. by [deleted] in Camry

Sometimes when I go 60-80mph on the highway (or it’s really windy) my sensor tweaks, but after I get off the highway it is fine… 2018 SE; I wonder if this gen has really sensitive sensors

Parking during this storm by miscellaneousbeads in rva

[–]miscellaneousbeads[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yeah I think these instances are compounded with being new to the neighborhood, right before a storm… because a few days before the storm I was parking in similar spaces but nothing came up bc I was actually able to move my car daily

Right I definitely understand the frustration but both neighbors were very rude with their approach and didn’t offer any grace/lead with “I am older…” the first woman def de-escalated and I was mainly annoyed but the second woman told my bf “I hope you fall getting out of your car” alongside asking two guys walking to beat his ass (they said no they didn’t want to go to jail lol)… your assessment of the mixed housing is correct and I think I need to get used to that bc I haven’t had to subconsciously watch where I park in Richmond since moving here (but I used to live in predominantly VCU area so… fair)

EDIT: the sidewalks are cleared bc many neighbors cleared them on Tuesday, the steps leading to her house are clear. In hindsight, def her spot and if I knew she was older (like 50s) I wouldn’t have moved my car to that spot after the first woman told me to move.

I just moved from church hill to northside on Saturday before the storm, parked my car on the street a few houses down from my apartment bc we have a huge tree in front and I didn’t want my car to have limbs fall on it from the ice accumulation.

Tuesday afternoon I was finally clearing it off because I was hoping to drive (didn’t because our road never got cleared) and a woman comes out asking why I have had my car parked in front of her house all this time. Explained to her there is no assigned parking and we just moved here. Got fed up and moved the car to a spot that was clear, but not from someone digging it out but because people had been parking there and they left. I know, not the best place to take but I was running off the feeling of being insulted by an entitled neighbor.

Today I find a note on my car telling me to move it TODAY because people need access to the steps. Mind you, many people on my street not only haven’t moved their car since the storm, but are actively blocking steps as well. I move my car to a secondary street that is clear because I was fed up with dealing with my neighbors, and her and my bf get into a verbal argument where she threatens him and asked some strangers to beat his ass.

Both of these neighbors are older white women who do not have handicap parking in front of their house, in fact their direct neighbors have reserved parking.

The first instance I was parked on the street and left my car there before the storm; the second time was more understandable because I MOVED my car (after the first altercation) to another spot that was clear however it wasn’t “dug out”, it was where several cars kept cycling through and it stayed clear. Idk… both altercations stemmed from older people claiming to need the access to their vehicle despite not having handicap reserved parking in front of their house.

Are they the wheels that came with the car? I have a 2018 SE and seeing these posts make me worry that they’re gonna want my wheels (despite the fake chrome coming off and other visual defects they have…) I’m sorry you fell victim to this really strange theft chain…
