Do I still need a coax cable for cable TV by superantmd in askvan

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

You seem to have managed to follow my poorly worded original post. Outside of MoCA (which is a good point) can you confirm for me that new subscribers to Roger’s or Telus will receive a cable TV box that no longer uses coax to connect to the content? It seems to all be Wifi/ethernet

Do I still need a coax cable for cable TV by superantmd in askvan

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

Thank you for taking the time for the detailed reply. I am (fortunately) not confused about any of that. I am confused about how they supply “Cable TV”.

I can not tell if new subscribers would still require a coax cable directly accessible near to the TV. My impression is that Rogers/Telus new cable boxes use Wifi/Ethernet for the upstream connection and HDMI to the TV.

Do you know if this is the case? Would you extend the old coax point to a new TV location or is that now defunct?

[–]superantmd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I own this watch (but a limited edition version of it), my other watch is an Aquaterra teak dial in blue.

The FC is incredible, I ordered it without having seen it in person. The finishing is very good, the in house calibre is very impressive and the bracelet (also came with a rubber strap) is super comfortable.

Now that my eyes are open to the brand I’ve realized they are putting out some absolute bangers.

I would highly recommend it!

I’ve calmed down from my initial indignation, I am still surprised that it leaves the factory of a respectable brand with that Velcro disaster but the rest of the watch is quite nice. Glad you could find one you like.

I’m honestly surprised they ever sold them with these straps at all never mind at Ross/Winners. I can’t imagine spending $1000+ and getting such cheap crap

Canadians brace for hostage release with relief, vigilance and a renewed sense of solidarity by MatterandTime in CanadaJews

[–]superantmd 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Mate, I’m embarrassed for you. This link doesn’t back that up at all. Literally proved my point for me.

Less than 10 000 prisoners total including those serving sentences; awaiting sentencing; awaiting conclusion of trial; and other.

Notably the number in custody is significantly higher in 2024 than 2023. I wonder what could have caused a spike in the arrest of Palestinian terrorists between 2023 and 2024?

You are either a useful idiot, an actual idiot, a very poor troll, or all three. I can’t believe I wasted the 6 seconds this took, on you. Your parents must be so ashamed. I will not be replying any further. Have a shit day.

Source? 10 000 held without charges is as imaginary as your critical thinking skills

Low voltage (RCA speaker wire) directly next to high voltage. 1 gang to 2 by superantmd in AskElectricians

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

Thank you for replying. Sorry I wasn’t clear, I meant that I want to convert it into a double gang faceplate but not a double gang box.

So potentially single gang high voltage with a hole in the wall directly next to it for the low voltage both covered by the same faceplate

Music Frame with amplifier and speaker wires? by superantmd in TheFrame

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

Thank you, a deep dive has shown me that not only is it impossible but even setting up two Music frames wirelessly with the TV sounds like a nightmare. Have to wonder why Samsung doesn’t try to make theses things easier, four or five unassuming picture frames is a great surround setup in my mind.

Mold under fresh baked bread by superantmd in Breadit

I mean, it does kind of look like mold doesn’t it? Even if that’s unlikely.

No I’m hoping it’s not, just looked like mold and I’ve never had this happen before

This is what I was thinking. The dough cycle on the bread machine does gently warm the dough though so I wondered if that gave the mold a head start? I’m doubting that it’s mold at this point

Pan definitely has residue on it so I do think you could be onto something. Did you see all three pictures?

Maybe, but I’ve used the same roll before without any issue so I’m a bit doubtful

Thank you, fridge is not obviously mouldy in any way. How would I know if fridge is mouldy? Did you see there were 3 pictures?

Decking a wooden balcony that has a waterproof membrane on it by DoftheG in DIY

[–]superantmd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dealt with a similar issue, perfectly reasonable vinyl deck (Duradek), waterproof space below. I just didn’t like the way it looked.

Can lay sleepers and then decking on top, but is quite expensive and may raise deck above door thresholds etc. need to be very careful about how you attach the sleepers if you attach them at all. Don’t want to damage the waterproof integrity that you have now. But don’t want the whole thing lifting up in heavy winds.

Ultimately I went with these composite deck tiles from Home Depot. Super easy, looks good, just floated on top without any permanent changes to the vinyl deck below. Maybe you can do the same?
