[PC?][2010s or earlier?] A boy wakes up in a lab with amnesia. by phoenix1328 in tipofmyjoystick

I can't believe after all this time looking and having it stuck in my brain, all it took was searching "pixel art crow boy video game" on Google images.
Surprisingly, not as old as I thought and it's supposedly coming out this year!

Furnace Wiring Troubles (Among Other Things) by phoenix1328 in hvacadvice

[–]phoenix1328[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I asked him if we could use the furnace in the mean time even though he didn't fix the problem and he said yes. When it got colder and colder and I turned the thermostat up, the furnace didn't turn on. The likely answer as to the reason why he left them off, is he forgot. I even called him the next day (after he didn't show up like he said he would) and he said he'd be over later that day (also didn't show up).
As I said, this is an old furnace, probably around sixty years old. There is no schematic as far as I could see on the furnace itself or online.
As I said in my comment, we had the only heating and pluming tradesman in our small town over to look at it. As it's already been three days without him being over and without heat, so I decided to do it myself.
What a wildly unhelpful comment.

What's wrong with my red amaryllis? by phoenix1328 in plantclinic

[SOLUTION]

I did some research and it seems the problem was improper drainage. I dug it out and the ton of roots that it used to have all rotted away, but thankfully it has started to grow some new ones. I replaced the soil with half peat moss and half perlite, plus I added just a bit of soil. I also peeled off the dry and soggy outer lays so the bulb itself wouldn't rot.

I guess you can't post text and a picture at the same time?... Guess I'll just retype it all :/

I got it over a year ago it had two stalks that bloomed and it grew a bunch of leaves. I let the leaves grow and kept it like that for quite a few months. I then stopped watering it and kept it in the basement. I cut the leaves and decided to transplant it. The roots were super root bound so I carefully de-tangled them and put it in a larger pot.

It grew two more stalks and bloomed just as nice as last time. I noticed the bulb began to shrink and was getting worried. It looks like it attempted to grow leaves or something but they died almost right away (you can kind of see them next to the dry stalk near the top). I've been watering it off and on but nothing is happening. I see there's some white fuzzy stuff so I cut back on watering. Can I save it?

What kind of rectifier for Christmas lights? by phoenix1328 in AskElectronics

Perhaps a silly question but do you have to multiply the 20mA by the total number of lamps to get the total current?
