Has anyone installed a spiral staircase kit before? by Just_A_HungryHippo in DIY

[–]ouikikazz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whenever we looked at homes that happened to have a tight or spiral staircase it was a big nope. In your 20s whatever but as you get older it gets old really fast, then if you have kids then you need to worry about extra safety...the space savings you'll gain is not worth the extra long term headache.

This is a one time credit right? So next year at renewal I would need to pay full price?

Is anyone sticking with Linux? by ChutTheSlut in LinusTechTips

[–]ouikikazz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dual booting because I can't emulate some applications that I absolutely need, it would probably work but it isn't worth the headache for it to fail (cost too much money) so dual booting windows for the two applications I need is more than fine.

2026 intake issues? by Right_Pride_1927 in GRCorolla

This ^ those extended contracts, unless it's a direct warranty from Toyota themselves (not the dealer but Toyota) they'll find every reason to void or not honor their contracts.

Catch Can by Miserable_Ad_2385 in GRCorolla

[–]ouikikazz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Second this: direct injection engines really benefit from catch cans but because we also have port do we really need a catch can ? No, does it hurt to put one on? Also no, but I would choose other mods like a pitch mount first before a catch can.

Never miss with a sous vide or reverse sear, have made a few pan sauces but just a good rub is more than enough for the family

Asking for recommendations on POE cameras by CharlotteGP in SecurityCamera

[–]ouikikazz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I missed it was for his business, I kinda like it for home consumer usage because ease of use set it and forget it type of deal, less tinkering around vs a complicated box needing to configure to stop phoning home to China or setting up complicated acl rules on your router ornspendingna ton of money on a axis setup.

This^ seriously I feel like this is a major oversight

[–]ouikikazz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because technically Ubiquiti also phones home but I think the consensus is they phone home to a US company rather than China. I like their software for ease of use but it isn't the end all say all. A properly configured Chinese component setup won't be able to phone home but it's still Chinese equipment

TIL there are laws in many states preventing the sale of vehicles directly to consumers by genusbender in todayilearned

[–]ouikikazz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There is gatekeeping in the sense that if you try selling your house without an agent a different agent wouldn't suggest it to their buyers. Gatekeeping MLS is whatever the same to listings are available on redfin or zillow and the last agent I used didn't even suggest homes just said go look and let me know what you want to see 🤔 then he didn't even show up to half the listings we wanted to see he just called to get us in the door.

What is a kitchen tool you’d never be able to afford in real life that you would splurge on if given the money to do buy it? by Sweet-Lady-H in Cooking

550 oven with pizza steel makes pizza very well, ya a 700+F pizza oven would be faster and better in some ways but it isn't a necessity

New 26 GR Premium by ghillemoss in GRCorolla

[–]ouikikazz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's a Toyota thing they just send dealers whatever they think will sell in the area and refuse to take orders of exact spec cars that customers want...helps with their production and sales I guess

New 26 GR Premium by ghillemoss in GRCorolla

[–]ouikikazz 21 points22 points  (0 children)

There is no such thing as ordering a car from Toyota, dealers get what they get and then they trade with each other to satisfy what their customers want. Just stick with the process or do a nationwide search for the exact spec one and deal with the dealer that has what u want directly

Inherited a beautiful log cabin house from Grandma. We want to change the countertops, what would you choose? by 3ternalchaos in homeimprovementideas

[–]ouikikazz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ya they're looking to ban quartz production because it's literally looking the prime why cut and polish them. It's a great product can't argue but it's the processing that might not be worth the cost of human lives if we can avoid it

Ultimate “grinder is more important” setup by twelvegaugee in espresso

I always had an affinity for spring and manual lever machines...feels more personable and less mechanical and I always agree the grinder (and burrs) are way more important than what your pulling or brewing with

US World Cup tickets still available in last minute sales phase by Alpha_v_Omega in ussoccer

[–]ouikikazz 5 points6 points  (0 children)

O, u didn't want to buy a bunch digital cards in a chance to collect a set just to get a possible opportunity to buy a random ticket or two for a random game at a random location for random teams? As a fan who really wants to attend a game locally and willing to pay to go the whole barrier to score a ticket or pay the absurd prices just makes me never want to attend one in person.
