PO installed grey "wood look" tile in the master bath. I hate it but not enough to rip it out. Yet.

Almost as if some highly-placed official specifically sabotaged the bureaucratic and structural systems that were meant to protect the station from this kind of assault...

I'm putting vinyl plank (luxury) in my basement room, but it's certainly not gray.

Also they forgot to install the lint filter on the exhaust. I mean come on, yeah, you'll have to clean or replace the filters, but how would the Rebels have fared if there were a couple of big screens anywhere along their path?

I prefer the Phineas and Ferb version where Darthenshmirtz helped design it and of course installed a self-destruct mechanism automatically. Funny how the very first thing Disney did with the franchise pretty much predicted a lot of it, including the Death Star having built in flaws that lead to its destruction and a major character being a turncoat Stormtrooper. Though Rogue One more establishes that specifically the main reactor of the Death Star was indeed designed to be dangerously unstable and blow the whole thing up at a relatively small disruption- though I imagine he had more in mind internal sabotage or a suicide bombing than a well placed torpedo.

Maybe like an small entryway/vestibule/mudroom. But across a whole kitchen, living room, dining rom, etc...? No way.

How is the door that much higher than the picture window next to it? I get having to step down into a basement apartment. But having to climb stairs outside just to step down on the inside to the main floor? What’s up with that?

Admiral Joeslop posted:Probably the living room behind the big window is a step or two down from everything else on that floor. It’s possible, I guess with the basement window below, I just assumed that there was a basement (or parent’s) apartment. And it would be kinda odd to have multiple levels on the first floor. But this is the crappy construction thread, so anything is possible. It could just be how they made the entryway work with access to the second floor apartment. Elevate the entryway a bit, so the stairs to the second floor fit in the space now available.

Is there any way at all to do this without the room turning into a big mold growing greenhouse? I don't think even a heated floor beneath the carpeting could do it.

You could probably do it with ultraviolet germicidal irradiation. There’s a lot of shadowing in the fibers, but if you hit it with enough ionizing radiation, nothing will grow in there. Platystemon fucked around with this message at 09:22 on Dec 5, 2022 |

absolutely insane design choice right there. why not put it along the wall where the peninsula starts, drop the peninsula, and have a big ol' island if you want that additional cabinet and counterspace??? e: where does that doorway in the background lead to, and why is the top of the drywall only a few inches above the door??! brugroffil fucked around with this message at 15:32 on Dec 5, 2022 |

The "reasons" are that the rough opening was sized for a top compressor built in SubZero and someone jammed a big box store samsung or whatever in there because it was $10k cheaper.
