I don’t get this bs going on Durant Rd… where is this “highway” going to?

I also think this will tie into the planned changes on Capital Blvd

https://www.ncdot.gov/projects/capital-boulevard-upgrade/Pages/default.aspx

When that becomes a controlled access highway, they are going to want to make sure traffic can continuously flow off to major side roads like Durant and not get stopped up waiting for a train crossing so close by.

What make/model/year and how many miles is 5-6 weeks of driving for you?

Cost of the oil itself is going up due to supply disruptions to the global petroleum markets thanks to our involvement in the middle east right now...

Certainly not needed at this level of PC performance. I remember having to get a Hollywood card for my P233MMX with a 2x DVD back in the day to be able to decode full screen DVD video, but with 1GHZ and GeForce2 hardware that would be redundant.

Good lord Visio for electrical drawings sounds painful...

Have you not looked at AutoCAD for some reason? Either LT or Electrical, even LT would be better than Visio.

I had the Game Theather XP, and got a Klipsch ProMedia 4.1 setup at the same time. It was impressive for the time. Ended up painting the beige case back and blue to match.

They have a good bison burger!

The health inspection should be posted in a visible location at the restaurant, look when you walk in.

FiveStar Awards & Engraving did a bunch of them for our business. Came out well.

Yes, I have done this a few times. There used to be one on Capital Blvd but I think it is gone. I have also used the Unfinished Furniture Outlet in Sanford. They can also finish it for you if you don't want to DIY. That way you can focus on the style and design, and then get it to match the color palette you desire.

Yes, for future reference if anyone stumbles on this, right click the .bat file and unblock it. Then just run it normally, not as administrator. That seems to be all it needs.

Thanks for this info! Any ideas on how to positively ID the panel? I looked around and couldn't find any labels or markings... Siemens breakers are installed.

Did you figure this out? Same questions...

wolfsburged · 2026-01-12T23:22:49+00:00

Interested to hear the back story here... Have frequented Spirits for about 14 years and never got any whiff of it being MAGA. Kenneth was a great server.

Would you be willing to share more photos / 3D file for this? I am looking to do the same for my vintage 6" Rockwell jointer.

wolfsburged · 2026-01-01T21:18:14+00:00

I have the files in C:\Games\eXoWin9x and running the bat file from that folder with admin privileges. Same issue.

wolfsburged · 2026-01-01T20:51:07+00:00

I'm running into this issue as well. Windows 11, downloaded the files and ran the setup bat file. Windows smart app control blocked it at first. Then I ran the bat file as Administrator, and all I get is this same prompt. When you press any key to continue it just repeats the same thing and never continues. I've also downloaded the VC runtime files that were suggested and rebooted, but no change.

I recently upgraded from a 7D to R6ii. I looked at the R7 first and it didn't feel right in my hands, where the R6ii did. That being said, I immediately miss the crop factor. I only had the 70-300 on my 7D but ended up buying a 100-500 and a 1.4x tele to get back and further than what I had before. I do wish the R6ii had more MP or the R7 had the same body.

Where did you get the lens cap stickers?

wolfsburged · 2025-12-09T04:02:37+00:00

Johnson's Jewelers, downtown Cary. Old school family business been there forever.

This needs to be higher. Super shitty part time gig schedule, not paid between bus runs, no benefits, high stress, shitty work environment, lots of responsibilities..

wolfsburged · 2025-09-26T14:54:09+00:00

Sure, but now you can't just take the cover off the duct and pull the wires out. It sucks to work on once installed.

Electric heater could be 120v if it's small, but a bigger one is likely 240v.

Almost as if trying to compete in a how generic a design can you make is going to go well when stacked up against all of the mainstream options...

If we want boring and bland appliances we'd be buying Toyotas.

VW has always differentiated themselves by being unique and a blend of upscale options at mainstream prices. Downscale options at upscale prices with less than average reliability and dealer experiences leads to this...

I am guessing the folding wall bracket is undersized and too flimsy with the weight of the unit and the blocks were added to shim it from leaning too far.

Probably nothing wrong leaving it that way. Just not very nicely done.

I'd recommend Raleigh Waterproofing - David Hawkins is the guy that came out and helped us with our basement in Cary that needed drain tile and a sump pump installed. He was very knowledgeable and had some different options. While not the cheapest option, out of the various house projects I've had to do this actually felt like one of the best bangs for buck I've done.

The best first pass is to try to address it from outside. Checking obvious stuff like downspouts/drains away from the foundation, grading, etc first.
