HAPPY MORNING

I keep thinking that their bizarre paint-splatter decoration looks to me like someone pulled wooden paneling off of a wall and didn't bother doing anything about the residual random smears of glue.

I don't understand how human beings could live in an environment that's so visually busy. Like, there's something in every couple of square inches which just screams for attention, it would be mentally exhausting after awhile at least for me.

Somehow they managed to take a 2 foot high porch and turn it into a death trap.



As visually disgusting this is, I'm not so sure it's as death trappy as it looks. I think there's some semblance of a solid structure there that they just nailed a bunch of poo poo to. But I don't think the poo poo is structural.

You people are too critical. Boo hoo, most houses are bland beige boxes devoid of character. Now here's a house with heaps of character, and you're still not happy.

Tons of character. Scads of character. Enough character for at least 10 houses. So much character.

Whoever decorated that house was about six years old, and their teacher sat them down for Arts and Craft, giving them a blank t-shirt and a squeezy tube of Puffy Paint. It was then that they realized their true calling.

I mean, at least now that we know it's supposed to be art instead of a building for human beings to inhabit we don't have to wonder about what could possibly have led to such poor decisions.

As a ham you should know how important it is to ground your equipment to an earth ground composed of ramming multiple 6ft copper poles into the dirt even if that means running an extension cord from the ground to your shack :haw: :eng99:


But seriously, I can see something like that happening, and it wouldn't be as bad as the alternative explanations for that plug.



To all the non-hams: grounding high power radio equipment isn't as simple as plugging it into the socket, unfortunately. It's a helluva lot more complicated than I can describe but it does usually involve driving multiple ground stakes and wiring it up haphazardly.

Chassis grounds are different from RF grounds! Inside the shack, it's important to ensure your equipment is all tied together (to eliminate voltage differences between two things), and properly grounded (which works just fine with house ground). For an antenna that needs grounding, you need a buried radial system, or a ground screen, or good ground rods. I like using balanced antennas because they don't need any of that crap.

I was looking at the listing and thinking it might be doable if it were gutted and completely remodeled. The neighbors would probably love me. Then I found out it was art and was like, wow! I could live in art! And when I lost my mind and became a gibbering mess with a copper paint pen, that would be performance art! Someone call the realtor, I need to jump on this before the price goes back up to to ten million.

This is every single light in a parking structure where I work. Being a concrete parking structure, it is somewhat protected from the elements; it's also Michigan, where months of winter causes odd frost/condensation/puddling in metal things left outdoors. This structure is 8 years old. Is it kosher to have hundreds of 'plug-in' lights and ceiling-mounted sockets?



I can't cite code requirements, but I know a nearby disconnect means is required for a lot of commercial lighting. The cord and plug satisfies that requirement. Where I'm at, cord and plug is the norm for newer installations.

My parents' house has something like this. It makes it easy to put an outside light/outlet on a light timer. Also, I'm sure it's much simpler to DIY -- no interior wiring or drywall patching involved.
