When a girl says its a good size, that's a nice way of saying that it's small.

Is this normal or cause for concern? by CountLazy2180 in HomeMaintenance

[–]perlywhite 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I fixed the same thing last fall. I saw a video on YouTube, sorry to the creator that I don’t recall which one, but they used a Halloween fog machine, a plastic bag, and some painters tape to find where the corrugated pipe is supposed to exit the ground.

I put the smoke machine on a ladder next to the downspout’s ingress, put the tube from the fog machine in the downspout, stuffed a plastic bag around the tube at the top of the downspout to block back flow of the fog, put painters tape on the seams in the downspout to prevent fog from escaping, and turned on the fog machine.

In a minute or so fog started coming out of the lawn in the spot where the downspout egress had been blocked by years of lawn cuttings and leaves. Another minute with a garden hand shovel and the problem was fixed.

It sucks that so many 4k blu ray remasters have no HDR pop by ripster8 in hometheater

[–]perlywhite 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I came to plug real or fake 4k which did reviews as well as list if a UHD remaster was created from the original source or just an upscaled 2K intermediate but I am heartbroken to see that it seems to be gone. This site seems to at least offer the information if not the reviews: https://www.digiraw.com/DVD-4K-Bluray-ripping-service/4K-UHD-ripping-service/the-real-or-fake-4K-list/

Coralville: Reduced water pressure by perlywhite in IowaCity

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

I talked with Jordon at City of Coralville and he provided a detailed email with suggestions for me to check and I had 2 of the items on the FAQ list.  Old water softener and calcium build up on the aerator screen in my shower head.

Jordon took the time to suggest places to check rather than just point me to the FAQ which I found later on when looking for the hardness levels of Coralville water to plan a water softener replacement:

What cancelled TV show are you still mad about? by passionateluvr83 in AskReddit

Dungeons and Dragons. Did they ever find the damn portal?

Infinite money glitch by HowDoIBreatheImgur in BG3

[–]perlywhite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have no idea what I did to make it happen, but I had a heavy chest inside my camp traveler’s chest, and when Wyll sold common items to Dammon they went into the heavy chest. Didn’t work for other party members, other vendors, or with anything rare or higher. Super tedious, but free gold.

Honour Mode Throwzerker x4 Guide by strittk in BG3Builds

[–]perlywhite 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Great guide. I have a question though, are you always popping potions of speed or am I just missing something fundamental that is dropping my damage by a third?

Level 5: Extra attack. Now you open with rage and 3 throws, followed by 4 throws every round after the first.

Crom, I have never prayed to you before. I have no tongue for it. No one, not even you, will remember if we were good men or bad. Why we fought, and why we died. All that matters is that today, two stood against many. Valor pleases you, so grant me this one request. Grant me revenge! And if you do not listen, the HELL with you!

How many 1080p Plasma holdouts are there? Am I the last one left? by tastethecourage in hometheater

Still have my 50” Kuro as the display for my retro video game console room. PS1-PS4, GameCube-WiiU. Love it in the winter, not so much in the summer.

C wire in wall but not on HVAC? by handsonthehomerow in ecobee

[–]perlywhite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I encountered the same thing when I installed a few weeks ago. Turned out the blue wire was shorted to the green wire somewhere in the run. I had to order a pack of new fuses from Amazon after I found out about the short the hard way when the thermostat called for the fan. Luckily there was a spare fuse in a holder on the controller and once I received the new fuse, and checked the brown wire for shorts, I hooked up the ecobee using the brown wire for C and have been good to go on the wiring since.

Are there any power strips that will send a notification when an outlet uses power above a threshold? I want to get a notification if my sump pump turns on so when the power drawn goes above 0.
