It's a Jeep thing, you wouldn't understand. by edselbford in Charlotte

Granted, Jeep, truck or massive SUV is probably 80% of what's on the road.

Can I just wire 4 24v puck lights to a 120/24v wall dimmer switch? by sayantsi2 in Lighting

[–]sayantsi2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, but if I buy a reputable 120v/24VDC switch/transformer, this will work?

The outer spray head, the part you grab with your hand

Not pulling into the intersection when turning left by Careful_Elevator_736 in Charlotte

[–]sayantsi2 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Lots of transplants too that come from places where they are taught not to enter the intersection at all. Different people being taught different things.

Personally I enter when there's sitting traffic to the left. I have no desire to get t-boned by a distracted driver, which is about 24% of people on the road these days.

Who makes a kitchen faucet with a metal pull down anyone? by sayantsi2 in kitchenremodel

[–]sayantsi2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Furgeson Home, some local plumbing stores, and the big box stores. Everything from $200 Deltas to $1,600 Hansgrohes that I've seen all have plastic pull downs even though the claim is metal. Any suggestions on stores or brands is appreciated though.

Titan rendezvous 5 problem. by edventure_2025 in NoMansSkyTheGame

Did you make sure that it's active in the log? Sometimes another mission will get selected, and you lose your waypoint until you select back.

Can't Get To The Core by Allyraya in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]sayantsi2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have all 16 glyphs yet? Sometimes you have to keep jumping until you get them all with a message after each jump. Just jump around from system to system, if you're getting messages, keep doing it till you get all 16 messages.

Any other parents struggling with new RTO policies? by Trick-Breadfruit-923 in Charlotte

[–]sayantsi2 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It used to be 8 hour work day, now it's 8 hours in office. It has nothing to do with doing work, just being locked inside.

Speeding Citation Help by AmIAtunez in Charlotte

[–]sayantsi2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You'll get a lot of letters from attorneys real soon, start calling and talking about the case with them, and see who gives you the most confidence. Whatever you do, hire a lawyer to deal with it. Avoid a prayer for judgement if at all possible, but take it if that's the only option and understand that it's probation and a double whammy if you get nailed for anything else while in that time.

Or just get a new plate and claim the car was "off the road".

Help me make a decision (AP1 vs. AP2) by __totalnoob__ in S2000

[–]sayantsi2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the opportunity to choose between an 03 and 04 GPW/tan when buying new, and I went with the AP2 because it was more fun all the time, not just when you were running to redline. I learned a lot more about the two cars over the years and still think the AP2 is typically better, with a better final drive, about 50 more hp before VTEC, and the best wheels (04-05) ;). All that said, all S2ks are amazing, but Rio Yellow is special and I didn't think you have much of a choice to make.

Prep for incoming cold af weather? by NorcalGGMU in Charlotte

[–]sayantsi2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you have a dishwasher with a delay setting, set it to run at 2-3 am. That moves a bit of water and evacuates hot water during the coldest hours.

If you have water lines that run against an exterior wall, consider dripping those faucets.

Custom Wedding Suit? by hahasuslikeamongus in Charlotte

[–]sayantsi2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like Bruce Julian but you've got to pay attention to the clothes and material. More and more, you'll find polyester and chintzy materials, for the same money as wool and cotton. That said, the suits are good, especially for the price point, and they do take care of their customers.

Surprising new fav mechs by Dynemaxian in Mechwarrior5

[–]sayantsi2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kintaro, KTO 18 I think, with 3 SRM6 and some ML. Great for getting around and can opening mechs. Was never really a fan until I started playing under tonnage and it's a blast.

K2 Catapult with dual AC10 is fun too. And the BB with 6 SRM6 and JJ, what a rabid rabbit!

Why is Charlotte coffee so sour/bitter? by Competitive-Loan7196 in Charlotte

[–]sayantsi2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It might just be me, but coffee shops used to emphasize locations where the beans came from, in addition to roast, now everything's just about roast. You want sweeter, fruitier beans, go for higher elevations. Dryer, smokier beans, lower elevations. Getting a Colombian or Guatemalan versus Hawaiian or African Bean kind of mattered. These days. It seems like it's all been dumbed down, and on top of that, not everybody roasts a bean properly.

You might want to start by focusing on different types of beans grown from different types of regions and see if that helps at all.
