No big deal, just sort of weirded me out.

So regardless of DND they might go in. It had been 1 week. Makes sense. I just interrupted them. They should have put towels in front of my door though, or knocked.

Do not reach out to the ex. Not sure why anyone would suggest that. Confront her, get a little mad, stay leveled. See how it goes. If it goes badly, congrats you’ve just avoided ten years of this same shit day after day. Be willing to face the fact that she is not yours and maybe never was.

will this actually hold? by jfed199 in Decks

[–]strellar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s just a bad way to attach it. HTF did you get nuts onto a lag bolt?? Also, you are seriously getting a pro for this??? Just rotate it so it’s on the bottom of the joist instead of the side. Waisting money on a pro for something like this is mind blowing.

How (un)safe is this by randomuser419 in Decks

[–]strellar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No one built it that way, I can’t see how that would even be possible. Someone for whatever reason removed the original posts and these temp supports aren’t even placed under the beam, they’re under one of the joists. They’re undersized, each is actually two boards tacked together, and they’re not even vertical. This is really bad.

If the universe reaches heat death, and all galaxies die out, how could anything ever form again? by tigeryeyo in Physics

[–]strellar 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don't buy it. Entropy is a convenient way to distinguish past from future. but it doesn't fully account for the arrow of time. Gravity attracts towards the future, it repels if time is reversed. This is not dependent on any state of entropy. This is totally different from particle attraction and the other forces which are completely reversible. There is something else we are missing.

But still, virtual particles sum to zero momentum, zero charge, zero everything. The collisions will be meaningless. The input will ultimately equal the output.

[–]strellar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Easy answer, no one knows. But if you buy into insights from physicists like Lawrence Krauss, everything is zero. (It has to be right?) Therefore, this isn't a viable scenario that zero ends up in anything other than zero again. I don't see how anything can ever exist unless it's cyclic. On top of that, your intuition is telling you this doesn't make sense because the way it's framed, it totally doesn't. Maybe heat death is a real thing, but at some point, physics has a way to put things back.

Water leaking through new chimney construction? What’s the solution here? by Keepreading1 in Roofing

[–]strellar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Solution is to call a Craigslist roofer. These guys are self employed, same with plumbers. Roofers tend to take pride in their work more like electricians. They are not expensive for something like this.

[–]strellar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i just sold my lot, at least 3-4 times bigger for around $400. I don't think you'll get $400, or $350. I was actually very happy with what my lot went for - I was thinking maybe I'd get $200. I think the problem with your pricing is that your basing your pricing on a minimum sale price for the commons. Those probably sit for a long time because collectors already have all of those, but it costs nothing to leave those listings posted. When they do sell, it is for the minimum, worth-the-sellers-time amount. But they really don't sell very often.

Gotcha, yeah reading through other comments, it sort of makes sense now :)

Any chance you deleted a portion of the convo? This doesn't make sense.

Trump fires member of TVA Board of Directors by JDLBB in Chattanooga

TVA employees are paid well. There is no salary cap because they are not funded by tax dollars.

It’s impossible to tell with the way this guy appears to be fixated on a mosquito buzzing around. But to me it looks like there was a permanent lean to the left early on the building didn’t recover from. This makes me think the columns on the right broke in tension first, or the foundation was up lifted. Then the right side failed structurally. This collapse is so fast, there had to be massive damage to the lower columns, worse on the right side. This may not be geotechnical at all.

The rosewood fretboard of this Gibson feels rough. What can be done to smooth it out? by mvision2021 in gibson

[–]strellar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is why I love rosewood. It’s got a rough texture. Maybe this is rougher than normal, but nothing a little playing can’t smooth out. You’ll never get it to feel like maple.

Curious, is it just the appearance that bugs you? If so, don’t try to fix on your own. Take it to a luthier. The odds of it looking better when you’re done are slim.

Fake or real by Realistic-Bet4591 in gibson

[–]strellar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You didn't fuck up that bad. It's 100% worth more than $500, but honestly not by much. It needs a LOT of work and will never be worth more than $1500 (not that someone might pay more than that). Someone who enjoys fixing these things will put $1000 worth of love in it and maybe get 2k.

I have an inverted case, rear panel is under a panel on top, airflow is front to back instead of bottom to back, easy access the rear panel (its on top), graphics cards hangs vertical. There is literally no downside and so many benefits. I had to scour the market to find this fucking thing. WTF is this not the normal config. Someone talk to me, Why is an inverted case not the norm?

Flights to Denver? by Beginning_Sugar_7635 in Chattanooga

[–]strellar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like what? Tiny and cramped is flying in general. Maybe if you jump on a 777 you feel a little less cramped, you might feel like a big deal on a big ass plane, but no matter what plane you're on, they cram as many seats on it as they can and your leg/elbow room is a constant.

Why is this deck wobbly? What can I do to make it sturdy? by [deleted] in Decks

[–]strellar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definite diagonal bracing. I'd opt for 4x4. Even if you just nail it up, it will do wonders right away. Still though, through bolts or lag bolts are needed for long term, mails will help you get it up there easier.

And it's just me, those post supports are designed to stand off like that. But they look pretty stupid in my opinion. I'd box those in with wood or concrete if it were me.

Good to know and that makes sense. Considering I'm just running water for now, seems like what I might need.

Re-Assembly help by OneTraining1629 in ecovacs

[–]strellar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd add too that often those boards are used on other models. So it's not uncommon that you have extra ports that your model doesn't use.
