CommieGIR posted:seeing about the possibility of getting 3 phase 208 (we're right down the road from a substation, so we're hopeful). That has little to do with substation location and everything to do with what transformers are on the poles near the property. If there isn't a 3-phase one already you'll likely have to pay for it.

BrokenKnucklez posted:A: Exploders do have pretty comfortable seats. Plus you'll find that American SUVs can take some abuse and neglect and truck along like nothings wrong. Eddie Bauer leather seats have pretty good lumbar support, too. It feels kind of odd to just set the cruise while flooring it and stop giving a crap because you'll never speed, even if you drive off a drat cliff. drat thing went FASTER with an extra ton of junk and people in it than it does unloaded. I tried the factory motorcraft plugs and it dropped to 16mpg so I stuck the Bosch +4 back in and it sits at 19 all drat day (on 85.5).  The FM stereo in the console is absolutely awesome. That weird bump in the back is a removable cover to store your 8 tracks on top. It is in amazing condition. Sadly, the rear model sticker came off, and I can't figure out what it is. First time I've seen a separate AM/FM tuning display while still running off the same singular knob. It has phono and tape (reel of course) RCA inputs on the back. May just have to replace the 90s CD/cassette combo small footprint box that I was using with it. I did a 'how to change songs' demo for my youngest cousin on the radio (by adjusting the tuning knob). She wanted to take the radio to school for show and tell.

My regular doctor runs a walk in clinic. Still takes appointments though. Called over the weekend, left a voicemail. Never heard back, so I showed up. They said he's booked solid, and that I should have left a voicemail. Told them I did. "No you didn't, I'm the one who checks the voicemail" Told them all I needed was 5 minutes of his time to write a script. Nope. We'll call you later to set up an appointment later in the week. Trying to just get a script for naltrexone, which is for both opiate and alcohol cravings. I've had it before, printed out the NIH info on it and everything, in case he wasn't familiar with it. Turns out a substance abuse center near home does medication management, and takes my insurance insurance. Waiting to be assessed, and trying my best not to make the poo poo out of the dude next to me who won't shut up about politics. Many of which I agree with, but he's just talking to the room. Edit oh thank gently caress they finally brought me into an assessment room. Pretty sure that kid was on meth.

Welp, Clinic won't do meds unless I do 6 hours a day of iop, or do inpatient. Neither are options for me. Though the assessor has her own therapy practice near the house, and takes my insurance, so if I need that... Regular doc office just left a voicemail asking me to call them though.

STR, just eat some morel mushrooms. They'll metabolize into acetaldehyde, which will keep your body from processing the alcohol- so if you break down and have a beer, you'll have an incredible hangover to regret.

Wifi saturation, as seen from my apartment: 2.4GHz is basically useless due to interference, I get maybe 3Mbit/s if I'm lucky. So I set up a 5GHz 802.11a/n AP that was surplus at work and now I can actually saturate my 20Mbit/s DSL. Feels good to finally be running a decent wireless network, unlike those 2.4GHz plebs.

I dropped my phone this weekend and nuked the screen glass. Galaxy S4. What's my best option for replacement. Last time I tried to DIY it the replacement screen didn't work on my S2+ and I'm done with that poo poo. I just want the glass fixed and to be able to get the phone actually returned to me in working order.

If the digitizer is pooched, most folks won't even try to do an LCD/digitizer decoupling, so you are probably looking at $200.Terrible Robot posted:Posting from a mechanical room with a broken door latch.

Older ovens didn't seal as well as anything remotely modern. We have a tablet in the kitchen (which is less than 5 feet from the microwave), and for awhile, had a PC on the counter nearby. Both 2.4 GHz wireless. No signal loss when running the microwave, which is a 1000 watt over-the-range unit (a lovely Tappan that's as loud as our clothes washer on spin, but it was cheap).

But now WiFi has ECC to account for it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_interference_at_2.4_GHz#Microwave_oven Either way, the 2.4Ghz spectrum is a little crowded. I'll see if I can find my spectrum analyzer in the moving box and show you the wonderful affects of pulsing microwave frequencies upon WiFi packets.

Said gently caress it and booked tomorrow off to spend some time with my kid, dropped the car off to have the clicking noise checked out. Turns out it's a job I can do myself for £100 or pay someone else £200. What I'm saying is it seems I'm willing to pay the extra £100 to spend tomorrow with my kid rather than under the car. I won't regret this decision.
