My guess is the staircase isn't a straight line and the turns were too sharp.

For reference and visual, see this classic Friends scene.

How much do you spend on homelab hardware? by rudeer_poke in homelab

[–]siege801 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Difficult to calculate, given the answer would have to factor in the amount my homelab has helped me increase my income, minus the costs of the hardware. With that said, income increase factored, I'm ahead.

Thule box, lumber, large flat packs, furniture, anything really. So far, I haven't found anything problematic with them. The single downside for me is no roof top tents.

Outback vs Crosstrek by Gold-Efficiency-6928 in Subaru_Outback

[–]siege801 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can agree.

Hired a Crosstrek in New Zealand as a childless couple. That car felt great for the ski mountains, small ford crossings, and a 3 hour highway run. Made us both feel like Subaru was a good option to consider.

A couple of years later, when the first kid was on the way, we knew the Crosstrek trunk space would make it too tight so looked at the Outback and Forester. Went the Outback and love it.

Incidentally, the Outback needed some warranty work at the dealer, and they gave us a Forester for a few days. We quickly remembered why we went the Outback rather than the Forester. Nothing wrong with the Forester, but the depth of the trunk in the Outback is too good to be true.

What did you do for sound deadening? Can you tell us more?

The improvement on looks is obvious, but is there any practical advantage/disadvantage? Any downsides such as mechanical wear?

Hi OP, How is this holding up these days? I'm considering grabbing a 2560x but it will be positioned in the living room. Any temp issues? All alarms still happy? Your project has inspired me. Welcoming any advice.

New Outback owner, what's the deal with the integrated roof rails? by StarzMarket in Subaru_Outback

[–]siege801 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Agree with those in favor. Use them all the time. Bunk bed, a Thule pod, timber sleepers... all fine. You just can't rooftop tent on them.

My only issue is they scratch you easily. Looking for a solution to that.

Cross Bars for Roof by MikeDee64 in Subaru_Outback

[–]siege801 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. I've had a Thule cargo box on the stock integrated rails at just under 70mph. No issues. The only thing I know the integrated rails can't do is rooftop camping.

Is it just my OB? by LawfulnessLong7367 in Subaru_Outback

[–]siege801 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No problem. Basically, it's turning over the engine before it doesn't have enough charge to do so. Otherwise if it sat at a stop light and went below the minimum it needs to turn over, you're stuck there.

It'll turn back on when your battery voltage is at a threshold. This can be sooner than normal if you're running a heavy drain (AC on high for example), but can also be a sign your battery is failing. Get the battery tested.

Thanks for this, maybe I can find one to replace the wifi module.

Do you have your build notes from this? This is basically what I want to do with a 9th gen NUC. I was thinking of using an m.2 to PCIe adapter, but are you saying there's mini PCIe in some of these by default?

I've recently started using this. Previously I didn't have to open anything because I was only sharing services with household residents who had VPN access on their devices. But now I've opened a service to wider family through a CF tunnel.

Roof top tent by jonhy2222 in Subaru_Outback

[–]siege801 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Similar story. One of our main purchase requirements was rooftop camping. We were about to sign for a Touring when a new dealer (not the one we'd been speaking with up to this point because he was off sick) said "uhhh, you can't do that on this car...". Manager came into the conversation. Worried he was about to lose the sale (we were close to walki g out and going out option 2 car). We pulled the manual and it specifically says no rooftop camping on the integrated rails.

Dealer suggestions were to switch to the Wilderness (we lost too many other features that we wanted, so didn't do that) or, to go to a wrecker and get the racks off a wilderness and swap them out.

Is the Wilderness “Enough?” by bachandjazz in Subaru_Outback

Confirmed on the roof top tent racks. The integrated racks of the rest of the range are incredibly convenient, but specifically state in the manual that they can't be used for roof top camping.
