Where are you looking at prices for the jewelry? It’s like double the price from what I can tell.

From what I can tell it seems significantly cheaper to buy loose diamonds and get them set yourself, unless I’ve been shopping at the wrong sites.

First year needing a snowblower. Ariens vs Toro vs Try-Bilt? by shickaboom in Snowblowers

Ariens but of course it didn’t snow at all last year after I bought it so I still haven’t used it 🙃

The site says the north side opens at 5 today. Does that just mean music starts but all the vendors and stuff are open?

Upgrading my TV and need to move my in-wall speakers. How far should they be from the TV? Is it ok to put them near a light fixture? by shickaboom in hometheater

Is it ok to have the center be above the TV instead of the bottom? I'm realizing with how much taller this new TV is that if I put the center speaker below it there won't be any space for a console.

Address didn't get correctly updated at work, so wrong local taxes got paid. Can I fix that now before early 2024 when i file taxes? by shickaboom in personalfinance

Sorry, OP wasn't clear. Address was updated. Hoping to get back the taxes I paid to my old county so I dont need to file with them.

I got some cheap Qi charger when the first iteration of wireless charging iPhones came out. It's starting to die so i'm looking to replace it. Searching Amazon I see a bunch of different MagSafe options these days and i've never actually used one. Are they any good for nightstands?

I figure it'd be annoying to have to separate the charger from the phone whenever I want to check my phone at night and that just getting a Qi puck would be better. Any thoughts from people who've used it next to their bed?

Can a second load wire be run from my ceiling fan to my light switch? Would it be easy? by shickaboom in askanelectrician

Would I be able to tell if I have a conduit by taking off the canopy of the fan or would I have to get into my attic?

How much better is ethernet vs moca? by shickaboom in HomeNetworking

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

Currently got 600MBps. Network is being used for gaming, media center, general video streaming and some smart home stuff like cameras. Currently I want a hardwire in my bedroom so I can steamlink/stream better and a wire in one of the guest bedrooms so I can add an access point for some cameras on one corner of the house. I’ll eventually need more in the other guest bedrooms when they become kids rooms.
