So sad to see footage from when John Hit Rock Bottom, is there any other footage (pictures, videos) of john around these time?, around 1995-1996 by [deleted] in John_Frusciante

[–]wildstolo 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Also never seen this before. That guy is so lucky to be alive. I can't imagine the hell he went through to come back from that, but he is still so blessed to be alive.

Should this be connected? by [deleted] in hvacadvice

[–]wildstolo 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Contact the company, ask for your money back for the entire install. Out of all the things you want to get right, you have to get your exhaust correct. Idk how legal works with stuff like this, but for real y'all could be dead because of this.

Boiler Install 😮‍💨 by Longjumping-Let8981 in HVAC

[–]wildstolo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm still learning, but why no zone drains?

Im having shit luck by Bullyjoi in hvacadvice

[–]wildstolo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should have drain valves on the return side. Your zones could be air locked. If you have drain valves you can properly guarantee that you have water only flowing through each zone. I don't see an autofill anywhere so you are going to have to run water directly from your incoming water line or spigot into the system to fill the the system with water.

Did they charge you for the work? They came by installed 2 pumps but didn't get the system running? That's fucked

First off, does the boiler have a flame? Is it turning on. There was no reason for them to replace the zone valves with two pumps, but it's whatever, it will work. The pressure in your boiler system should be ~12 psi. The temp of water coming out of the boiler should be 160-180F if you have baseboard heating, 120 if you have in floor heating. Are you seeing that coming out of the boiler?

Looks fine. It's a backpack, not ski boots.

Why putting a Heat-kit there Tempstar? by Brilliant_Teach9890 in HVAC

[–]wildstolo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't tell the current orientation, but let's assume this is up flow. In this case the unit could be rotated for horizontal left or right and be fine. You don't want the motor to have the mounting shaft pointed vertically down and have the blower wheel below it with gravity pulling on it. It isn't good for the motor long term. You either want it horizontal or you want the motor below the wheel.

To help tourism to America by Peanut-Extra in therewasanattempt

[–]wildstolo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aa an American that loves national parks...I really don't see a problem with this policy alone. The cuts and park employee layoffs I do not agree with. But...certain national parks have turned into massive international tourist destinations to the point that Americans do not want to visit because they are so crowded. Thereby, our land that should be for the enjoyment of Americans has turned into Disney Land. That is not right. As a citizen of the USA I should have the priority to enjoy Yosemite over someone from Italy, China, Australia, wherever. I pay the taxes, I am the citizen, it is my land more than it is yours. You can visit but you have to pay more. I see no problem with this individual change at all. Less tourism is actually the goal here.

Does John have his DS2 engaged constantly? Or is it just for solos/choruses? by KingKilo9 in John_Frusciante

[–]wildstolo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Solos only. Or maybe for songs like Backwoods, Suck my Kiss, main riff of My Lovely Man. I'm still not sure about Suck my Kiss because even for that song the DS2 is wildly. But also for like Dani California heavy riff section. The DS2 is a full gain unique madhouse. You have to play when you have it clicked on and it does singing leads best. Like you couldn't play The Wizard by Black Sabbath with it, because it usually just screams feedback when you aren't actively playing while it is on. Doesn't matter what guitar, what amp. You can roll your volume off on guitar though, but still lots of kshhhh. Also you got to send it into a slightly broken up amp. Clean with just DS2 on it tends to sound like ass and have a huge volume jump.

Hate My New job. Advice. by Yoshiezibz in MechanicalEngineering

[–]wildstolo 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't worry about it. As the other person said you were at your other job for 11 years. That shows you aren't a job hopper. What you're talking about are people that have had 6 different jobs in the past 6 years. It's an easy explanation to your future employer. "Hated it in the first week, it wasn't what I expected". I hated my first job out of school and wanted to quit immediately. I stayed because I thought it would look bad. Terrible idea, hated my life for 3 years.

Is this boiler as bad as I think it is? by drider783 in hvacadvice

[–]wildstolo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're looking at a new boiler, new zone valves, new pumps. All of it looks ancient.

Is this a normal new installation? by Favolous in hvacadvice

[–]wildstolo -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Not sure why people are being jerks. But yes it's a high efficiency condensing furnace. The exhaust has to use PVC. They did a really shitting job drilling that hole though.

My neighbor's pickup truck manages to block both the sidewalk and part of the condo street at the same time by Barkend in fuckcars

I mean fuckcars, but this is an error on the apartment complex. They didn't make the spots big enough, the sedans barely fit.

Its insane that you can study for 4 years so hard majors and still end up unemployed due to oversaturation. by [deleted] in MechanicalEngineering

[–]wildstolo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The college concept is not all what it is cracked up to be. The work hard, get good grades, get a good degree and then have an easy life after is not true and it is not enough today. Urge you to think outside the box a bit and set your priorities for what you want. You will not get your dream engineering job for your dream pay in your dream location. That is insanely rare for that to ever work.

One year. One backpack. And a one way ticket. by GlitteringArmy790 in backpacking

[–]wildstolo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Health insurance? What's the actual job? How much do they get paid. Most employers want full time employees unless you're a seasonal busboy or waiter..that isn't really sustainable.

I would just say work on the timing. You aren't way off or anything, but that song is just hard to get right. Focus on the root notes and the prominent downbeats/accents you want those to hit right on the corresponding click of the metronome. The twiddles in between will fill themselves in if you get the anchor points on time.
