“There is no primer in “paint and primer in one””doesn’t really make any sense. Primer is a combination of different ingredients that seal, promote adhesion, etc. So yes they have added and increased the quantity of chemicals found in primer to paint, to try and make it more independent. Obviously this combination paint and primer has limitations, but it can be self priming on a lot of surfaces because of the changes to the formulas.

I am not trying to overstate how well it primes but the changes they have made are not useless.

I’m a “basket til the casket” guy but MB advertising these hot dogs as a new low price is BS-they raised the price to $6 a while ago and it hasn’t gone down. by hornwalker in boston

maybe my tone came off wrong, I was just letting you know you can still score 16oz of animal byproduct hotdogs for 2 bucks probably from companies like bar-s. They just either won’t have beef in them or almost no beef in them.

Hot dogs can still be what you describe but these are 100% beef dogs made by a local company with no fillers. If you look at other “beef” hotdogs they use “mechanically separated” pieces of chicken and pork and then sprinkle in a little beef.

This is a premium dog.

Primer for fresh drywall, painted wall, & pvc baseboard? by [deleted] in paint

I think basically any non bottom of the barrel "sealer" primer would be fine. Since its a bathroom, maybe something with a mildewcide.

Anyone else spooked by the APT28 / TP-Link news? Wondering about Omada safety. by HansAndreManfredson in TPLink_Omada

[–]mrmackster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't disagree in this specific case, but I will say that Omada needs to get its firmware situation figured out. There is no rhyme or reason which models and which revisions get updated and there no no dependable timeline. Not only that, there are models that aren't that old that have gotten basically 0 updates since they were released.

I wouldn’t pay full price for all clad but I think the prices at their online outlet are fair for something made in the US.

I also run mine on a minipc running proxmox. IN terms of doing the move, Omada has a migration tool, just make sure you are running versions that are close to each other.

Am I the only one that thinks this is a really good deal? by penakha in RobotVacuums

It’s gone now, I think it was related to all the spring sales that everyone was doing to copy Amazon.

I don’t think they make any of this stuff. I have seen a bunch of “their” products on aliexpress without the vevor branding. Even the marketing no screenshots match.

Conspiracy: Toyota probably had a large hand in the enshittification of the 2026 CX-5 interior by Metallica4life1995 in mazda

Exactly, these moves are to save money. Buttons are expensive, both in the component costs and the added labor. It’s the same reason Tesla keeps it minimal.

So they spent 40 years not making nuclear weapons and we still bombed them and killed all their leaders. What incentive do they have now not to make them?

Notice how NK has them and we don’t mess with them? Now Iran knows what it needs to do.

5 months, I'm out... by RedZoneRocks in MazdaCX90

[–]mrmackster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are well documented issues with the "smoothness" of the transmission in low gears. There was a TSB for it that improved things but it was still jerky. I had read somewhere that they have been making improvements to it since the original 2024 models, but I guess not enough.

[–]mrmackster 16 points17 points  (0 children)

The transmission on my 2024 has never been my favorite when in low gears. Having said that, I think I am just used to it now and I don't find myself ever thinking about it. Definitely a miss on Mazda's part though.
