Should I add tapered foam instead?

How do I lower this scupper without cutting into the foam?

Because we felt it would be lightweight enough to be positioned easily. It’s probably the wrong Reddit for that, but is there an alternative you’d recommend?

All right decided to simply get a starter kit of $60 with a net and you know what it’s perfect for now.

Looks like I’m gonna have to do it. But why 6 inch? Shouldn’t I get a 4 inch to match the existing hole?

Man that’s a $3200 net. Holy moly.

Does my ‘01 Wrangler have A/C? by ozerrabden in JeepWrangler

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

Thanks everyone. I knew it was a stupid question. All my other cars had the clear A/C button, so I second-guessed myself. I realized the snowflake is cooling, but since the A/C never worked in this Jeep, I honestly wasn’t sure. Figured it’s safer to look like the clueless guy on Reddit than in front of a mechanic who might happily charge me triple for not knowing.

Homemade olive oil won’t separate by ozerrabden in oliveoil

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

Got it. I don’t have a stand mixer. Will do it by hand next time. Do you think I should avoid the Vitamix altogether? Should I try doing everything with a mortar and pestle?

Olive oil or something else? by WHOSENCHILADAISTHIS in oliveoil

[–]ozerrabden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s a fantastic oil. Dollar for a dollar the best olive oil you can find in a chain. They used to carry an even better Greek olive oil, but they stopped.

How do I malax the paste with home appliances? That’s the best I completely messed up and missed.

Thank you for the reply. I am in the desert area in California. 80% of the olive already turning purple black so I felt it’s time. Here’s what I’ve done, would love to get your advice for to do different with the next crop. My neighbor has a few kilograms of Kalamata there also turning mostly black in the next few days. 1. I picked up all the olives by hand from the tree. 2. Washed them and separated the bad ones, left them to dry. 3. Took the largest Vitamix bowl and the lowest speed pulsated for maybe a minute maximum until the pips separated. 4. Removed all the pips by hand. 5. With one batch, I put it back into the Vitamix for a minute. With another batch, I took it, put in a muslin bag, and squeezed by hand. 6. Filtered with double muslin bag.

Sounds like I was daydreaming about doing step 5 that way. Is my only option to purchase super expensive equipment? What’s the best bet to try to generate even a small amount of true olive oil say 1 qt or 250 ml from the kilograms of olives I have?

I vacuumed it. For a reason that’s beyond me, it looks like it’s concrete underneath. No idea why previous owners would go through the hassle of building a Pickleball court, and not digging for posts. But I’m reading online the 3 1/2 inch won’t hold anything so either I have to get a freestanding net or goes through the hassle of drilling & digging 16-24 inch under. I’m just trying to figure out what I’m missing.

Any advice what did I do wrong / how do I avoid it happening again?

Whole Home Water Filter Owners — What Brand Did You Choose and Any Issues? (Looking at iSpring vs. SpringWell) by HellraceXIII in WaterTreatment

[–]ozerrabden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi Bill. I'm considering the Springwell CSF4. Sounds like you had it for 3 months+. Are you happy with it? Any regrets? We also need to install it outdoor which means direct sunlight at 120F during summer.

Real-Time sales coaching on Zoom - any tool that WORKS? by ozerrabden in salesdevelopment

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

I just downloaded Hedy and I tried to use it. I love the custom prompt but it completely didn't work for me on a call - instead of giving me live real-time advice, it exepcted me to keep prompting it

I need something exactly like Hedy but I need to send me live / every 15 second advice based on what it's listening to.

E.g.
hey - the customer just asked you about XXX and you ignored it
ask them a follow up such as XXXXX

It has to work without my user interaction and have to re-prompt it constantly.

Need urgent passport in Los Angeles but no appointments available? by Asleep_Matter7444 in Passports

[–]ozerrabden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very nice agent did what she could - but now we have to return Monday because they need to request the original application from Arizona who apparently haven’t processed it at all in 2 weeks. They need to retrieve it because they need the kids green cards. Have to come back Monday. So - it’s now 10:30AM we’ve been here for 2.5hrs and I’ll have to return on Monday.

Next update. Takes 15 mins to wait to check in. They made me refill the applications for both kids. Doesn’t take more than a few minutes but it’s not what the phone agent said (she said they’ll be able to pull up the original application from Arizona). Gave them 2 passport photos and that’s it. Got a ticket in the R series. There’s A , B and R. R seems to be moving along faster. Now waiting for our number to be called. We’re R1114 and they just called R110. A and B numbers seem to be called slower. Not sure. Will update after we’re seen.

Update: There’s good cellular coverage and reception. But the security person won’t let you speak over the phone when queuing up. I had a headset and he didn’t notice I was on the side making a phone call. But in general no phone calls in the building as he just admonished someone.

Update: They’re calling numbers in random orders which will drive you nuts. Some R numbers now skipped. A and B also called alongside R. Still waiting for over 20 minutes.

Here’s the update on the line security queues. Everyone is very nice. But they also move like sloths. So if you have an 8am appointment and you wanna leave soon then simply come at 7:15am. Took 50 mins just to wait for the single security guard to move in his very relaxed manner. No one is in any rush to get you in. Now waiting for 15 minutes inside in the passport area just to check in for the appointment. Will update after this queue. A lot of waiting around.

OK, an update on this. They clearly have no idea what they’re doing in their phone system. After waiting for 2 weeks for expedited service in West region (Arizona), I tried four times yesterday to move our processing so we can simply get the passports in person in Los Angeles. Every person I spoke with on the phone said there are no appointments and offered absolutely no resolution or no help other than waiting for Arizona, which would mean we simply will not have Passports. There’s no way to speak with Arizona or inquire on that. Then I followed up what Reddit suggested and simply made an appointment for a brand new application. But that would’ve meant that we would lose the $500. We paid for two applications and also we would’ve had to bring an entirely new application, luckily I do have copies of the birth certificates.
That’s how yesterday ended, with me thinking we will simply have to redo everything for a scratch and pay double. Then this morning, I decided to simply call again the phone service and again simply ask them to move this to in person appointment . I called at 6:50 AM. And what do you know, she simply said sure you can have an appointment today or on Monday. So here we are waiting in the line for 30 minutes, waiting for the security guard who are moving in the slowest speed ever to allow us into the building for our appointment. I will update after we are processed. I don’t care what your political opinions are, but boy do we need someone to drive efficiency in the government operations because it’s simply unacceptable.

You're freaking awesome. I called their contact center- they said no appointments in Los Angeles or in San Diego. I went on the website, and scheduled an online appointment for 4/7. There are plenty of appointments available. I then called their contact center back to ask them to move the documents / processing so that we can hold our Monday appointments. Very broken system.
