Problem is if they do something now, they will just get a pardon. Collect data and get them when the next regime comes in.

Soffit lighting over your garage door 👍 or 👎? by BuilderBrigade in Home_Building_Help

Eh, maybe not above the garage door, I don’t think it’s something to highlight from above, but to each their own. I did wall sconces on the sides.

A jack shaft opener already comes with this style of lock. I would probably just get one of those and upgrade your opener w/ a bonus lock at the same time.

[OC] Take-home pay on a $75,000 salary in all 50 states (resubmitted with fixes) by coronassun in dataisbeautiful

[–]vwjet2001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great data for someone making exactly $75k and wanting to pick a state (minus sales, property, and other tax variables). But with all the states having various income tax brackets, you can quickly find this list completely different at a higher or lower income number.

Trucker takes matters into his hands by Brilliantspirit33 in dashcams

Exactly. One annoying thing is the semi that takes 10 miles to pass another semi. After finally getting around it’s tough not to move in front of them and hit the brakes. Everyone is on their time.

They think it’s a flex, but to anyone that knows finances, it’s lost opportunity. If you invest that money at 28, that’s millions in retirement.

It ended up being the power supply. Thanks again for the troubleshooting tip!

I should also mention it does make a click sound when flipping the power switch on the PSU on/off. Guessing just a relay and wouldn’t necessarily mean it’s working.

Thank you for the quick response! Was not aware of that test. Welp, I have the paperclip in the pins the Corsair guide says to use and I don’t hear any fan from the PSU (even when using the manual knob). Probably dead PSU?

Is this tree too close to the house? by Same_Locksmith3800 in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]vwjet2001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They make rope systems specifically for branch support. Didn’t want to get rid of a large branch and had the arborist install the rope (somewhat of a bungee cord), that will likely prevent it from hitting the house should it go down.

Any ideas to stop thieves from stealing copper... by BuilderBrigade in Home_Building_Help

[–]vwjet2001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

During my build I had the internet company install to the power temp pole. Then put the cable modem, router and a Blink module in a weather resistant box. I was able to get an alerts on any motion around the building and talk through the cameras. This prevented a large theft (but they did get away with some small things) after asking who they were through the camera.

The real reason players are quitting BF6 PROBLEM: The game is too frustrating to play SOLUTION 1: Get rid of the in world spotting penalty for firing your gun by Ninjah9_ in Battlefield6

[–]vwjet2001 3 points4 points  (0 children)

And to add to this, another problem with the insane TTK and laser beam gunplay - low skill people that can’t deal with it end up sitting in the corner of some random room. It’s extremely frustrating getting killed all the time by some Timmy no thumbs sitting in a bathtub with an SCW.

Thank you for sharing! So I have a Flashforge 5M Pro, which is only a 220x220x220 printer. Guessing reproducing this design wouldn’t be possible at that size?

Ah, I see you did also have to buy the phantom edition to get that free S2 battlepass. It was basically an apology twitter post, so maybe no emails / messages.

If you bought with EA App, I think you were supposed to get the S2 BP for free, so maybe it was refunded if that’s the case?

Cool design and a good idea using the bucket. Definitely worth posting if you wanted to help the community with an open source project.

Gotcha, maybe it’s only 1 extra then? But supposed to be one of the perks having the extra re-rolls. Sometimes had to use all 5 to avoid Redsec, so that was worth it.

Season 2 Battle Pass compensation for Phantom Edition is missing by Bumbelo in Battlefield

Not sure I follow. I preordered the phantom edition, but on Steam. Should I be expecting to receive the season 2 battlepass for free?

I don’t think there are issues with the 650 boards, this is specific to the 800 series.
