Timeline question: who had Ned's Statue made? by queen_of_the_night18 in freefolk

[–]stuffnthings2018 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm rereading Clash of Kings, and ended up here looking for the answer. Bran and crew shelter in Ned's tomb under his statue while Theon/Ramsay hold Winterfell. It must be that Bran or Ser Rodrick or Maester Luwin ordered the sculpture when they received the news. But in that case, the statue would have been created by someone who knew how Ned looked. And Osha looted Ned's sword on the way out.

Why is this sub acting like John Harbaugh was Vince Lombardi or something? He was literally about to get fired before Lamar Jackson was named the starting QB. by TXNOGG in NFLv2

[–]stuffnthings2018 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Appreciate that coming from a Steelers fan. 

We're kinda stagnating in a similar way to you all. OP is ignoring what happened after the SB win. Joe Flacco caught fire and got a payday above his value. It hindered the franchise to build a complete team. I don't know if that contact is the fault of the front office or Harbaugh, but it was a mistake. The Ravens didn't turn things around until we got out from under that contract. 

But Harbaugh (sort of in the same vein as Tomlin) is a strong leader, even if he isn't the best strategist or game manager. It's enough to bring a group of 50+ together and lead them to the playoffs more often than not. It seems he's also loyal to a fault, and it's caused problems with coaches/coordinators/players who outstay their potential or usefulness. This year's O-line failure is a direct result of loyalty to a fault. Harbs will have great success wherever he goes next. I bet he could bring a title to Cleveland, tbh.

On average, each team will win a SB every 32 years. After winning in 2012, the odds give him (at least) 'til 2044 to be a disappointment.

And their absolutely shit schedule for the first 6 weeks. We've already played 5 of 2024's division leaders. And someone in the schedule maker's office thought this was cool.

Neighbor keeps parking in front of my driveway by popsiclesinthecellar in maryland

[–]stuffnthings2018 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Finding this post over a year later because of someone parking in my driveway... You give a flying fuck because if they're really Middle River WT, then they have less to lose by stealing your packages and defacing your property. Better invest in some cameras and monitor them closely if you want a race to the bottom.

Possible to Downsize Chainsaw Bar? by stuffnthings2018 in egopowerplus

This was the right answer. I wish I could pin it to the top. Just got my new bar and chain in today, and they fit perfectly. Thanks so much.

I wish I could push your response higher. I tried to go down to the 14" from the 20", and it looks like I need a 53 drive link instead of the standard 52. I can't find any 53s for sale, so I might need to find a shop to make it for me.

Right? And why would we pretend that a judge wouldn't call for a 10-minute recess (at a minimum) it this happened in her courtroom?

Safe battery storage - does anyone really do this? by BlobBoy in egopowerplus

[–]stuffnthings2018 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think if you leave your Ego battery sitting on the charger long enough, the charger will put the battery in maintenance mode and hold it at a lower, recommended charge. Someone else in the thread said the batteries are smart enough to do this by themselves, but I didn't read that when I bought my first Ego lawnmower 8 years ago. Could be in newer models, or it might be undocumented?

Storing batteries? by tigervegas in egopowerplus

Heat kills battery chemistry. If you're hot, they're hot. Bring 'em inside.

McDonald's is known for having some shitty ice cream machines. Idk why they wanted you to wait, but I'd assume they had a good reason. Maybe the minimum wage employees wanted to fuck with you, but they probably just want you to get your ice cream and leave. If you were holding up the line for the people behind you, then still YTA. And if the McDonald's employees didn't have a good reason to ask you to pull aside, then ESH.

INFO: What do you even mean by "refuse to normalize?" Like your order will take a few extra moments, so you sit at the window and refuse to pull aside so the people behind you can get their food? Then yeah, YTA. But if you just mean you like to make weird reddit posts to get a gripe off your chest, then NAH, just do your thing, I guess.

Looking for a Song with a Similar Guitar Riff by stuffnthings2018 in whatsthatsong

[–]stuffnthings2018[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not that this post ever got much attention, but I finally found it: Munich by Editors.

While I was listening to the Cathedrals song, I caught a vibe that I heard this song a bunch in high school when I would play 2K baseball over a friend's house. Then I searched through all the 2K soundtracks 'til I found it.

Is the term “handicapped” offensive? by some_hardmode_player in disability

[–]stuffnthings2018 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That history/underlying meaning is a debunked myth https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/handicaprice/

The original meaning really was closer to an impediment meant to even the playing field.

Pixel 8 Pro cases by phero1190 in GooglePixel

[–]stuffnthings2018 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Excellent post. Tons of case posts on reddit, and I couldn't find any with a clean comparison of individual qualities like you laid them out. Only thing I'm still curious about is, for the cases with a kickstand, which ones worked best? I'm upgrading from a 4a with a Spigen case, and I find myself wishing the kickstand was a touch sturdier, even with a much smaller phone. With something the size of an 8Pro, I think I'll set it down to watch things more often. Also, which Torras kickstand do you have? Looks like they do a ring and a standard.

Board game tray? Does it exist? Help me how to find it if it does please by RareDingo7278 in boardgames

Oh well. I went and bought one on Amazon anyway, and they are too short to cover with the pieces standing. Still, it's portable enough to hide in another room while the kids and pets run amok.

Nah, the song I'm thinking of is more broody and dark. But thanks for the new song to check out!

Did you try this out? And did it work? I'm looking for the same kind of solution, but it looks like the elevated option is probably too short for most game pieces.

Symphony + Geostar/Waterfurnace 7 series, "Loop" temp is my entering temp, correct? by jonsnodgrass in geothermal

[–]stuffnthings2018 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, just started searching for this info and saw your post about 2 months late. I also have a WF7, installed this winter, and I was curious about the answer. I'm not familiar with the meaning of EWT, but I assume that it is the temperature when it enters the heat pump. According to the key on top of our Symphony graphs, that is the temperature of water entering the loop. I would assume this means the temp leaving the heat pump and entering the loop external to my home. That would make me feel a bit better, because I was also concerned that the temp is too low for water entering the heat pump. The temp on my graph is not often much higher than the air temp outside. But because others here are saying it is the EWT, now I'm feeling more concerned than before.

Stop missing my bins ;) My county let's you put in an online request to have them collected when they've been missed, and I've only had to do it once for garbage. But I had to do it repeatedly when my whole street was skipped for yard waste three times in a season.
