DrBouvenstein posted:I give no fucks about garage placement, but it looks like you're going for a slab, and not a proper basement. That offends me mightily. Here in Texas nobody builds basements for two reasons. One you only have to go down past the freeze line and unlike in the north where that is couple feet down, we only have to go down like 6in so they are not as cost effective as a slab and building above ground. Second the ground moves like no other down here so a basement is just a bad idea. Foundation repair is almost guaranteed to be needed and a basement would mean cracked walls/much worse structure problems. Also garage in the back is the way to go if you have a bunch of tools/expensive stuff. No need to advertise to anyone driving by while you're working out there.

DrBouvenstein posted:Yeah, I figured you just lived somewhere where they aren't common/advised. I grew up in Rhode Island with no garage and in a Raised Ranch (finished basement making it a "two story"). We had a shed for tools and what not and cleaned the cars off every morning. Texas you just make room for cars or use it all for poo poo and park in front...Also attics are much larger. Cheaper to build up than down/out.

rockcity posted:Most of this was bought over the past few months, but I finally just finished everything. Those 3D wall panels were a goddamn pain in the rear end and I wouldn't do them again given the choice. They look nice, but god drat that was a lot of joint compound and sanding. I'm going to be finding dust in the house for weeks. All in all I'm super happy with everything and glad I decided to install everything myself. I do need to find a wall mounted wine rack for the booze side though. Maybe something coffee related for the other side. Can you get a closer picture of that wine bottle holder? I am intrigued.

I did a double take the other day because I couldn't believe I had just seen two guys dressed up like Backstreet Boys. I had heard that fashion was cyclical, but couldn't we just keep the good parts? Does this mean I can get some Jnco Jeans again? If so count me in (Im 33 what of it).

DrBouvenstein posted:Don't get me wrong, it's a great thing you got a Tdap booster, but a rusty nail in an attic is extremely unlikely to give you tetanus. Tetanus is actually found in soil, and the association from rusty metal came about because metal found outside on the ground (and thus may give you tetanus) is usually rusty. Last time I got a Tetanus shot was because some dude bit me in a fight.

I had a similar treatment on my knee and it was some of the most excruciating pain I have felt. They kept telling me it shouldn't hurt. Come to find out I had a shattered Tibia Plateau and they were literally rattling my bones. Glad it's helping you, being able to walk without pain is worth the money.

Not kidding, that design's nowhere near close enough to be considered a ripoff. If anything, I've seen dozens of beers with this kind of aesthetic, so does that mean they're all ripping each other off? I thought they were made by the same company and just different flavors until I read all the replies.

MacGyvers_Mullet posted:If you can afford it and want to retain some degree of control over your gear selection, get yourself something with a Golf/Audi DSG transmission. It's automatic, but all the cars come with sequential paddle shifters. If all you want is greater control, you can shift much faster with the sequential shifters than I ever could with a clutch pedal, and it lets me keep it in drive when I'm going to work in the city so I can devote more focus towards the cars & pedestrians around me. I mentioned this on the last page, but I drove a super fun manual Impreza for years, but I grew up in the country and went to a rural college without much traffic. I took a job in Baltimore and after a year I traded it in for a Golf TDI with a DSG and never looked back. I use my clutch to slow down more than I use my break pedal.

Toast Museum posted:It's a pretty big discount compared to buying new, that's for sure. We've had the same Aerons at work for the past ten years, and they seem like the only thing in the building that hasn't had to be refurbished in that time. Had them at one job and they were all broken in one way or another and uncomfortable as all hell. Nobody liked them and they eventually got replaced. The plastic bar across the bottom at the front digs into your legs and after prolonged sitting really start to hurt. I also like to sit on one leg and you cant do that in those chairs.

Nur_Neerg posted:Mine's unbelievably fantastic. Sounds like yours weren't set up right. They are only comfortable sitting in one position and if you have to sit in a chair for 8+ hours a day you cant do that without becoming sore/uncomfortable. Not to mention they break after prolonged use, wires break, mesh tears, arms break. Had them at two different companies and could not find anyone who liked them. Most people would bring pillows to sit on to try and make that stupid plastic bar at the front not dig into your legs after prolonged use. My mother even works for a office furniture company and says they get replaced all the time. Get a Mesh back but cushion bottom chair, they are far superior.

I had to listen to people bitch about these chairs for 7 years so I have kind of have a hatred for them.

big mean giraffe posted:Uh you can benefit MASSIVELY from 1080p. Even with a screen almost half that size at that distance. With a 90" screen at 10 feet 4k would even make a difference. from someone working in Digital Signage I can confirm that the closer you are to a large format display (or projector) the more it benefits. Remember the closer you are the more you can see pixels, if you were 20ft away it would actually look better at 720p than 10ft away. Kinda disappointed we are installing a 25ft touch screen display array that is only 4k. Pixels are huge.

I guess if it doesn't work "long rear end USB extension cable" will be my next purchase. A long time ago I bought a cheap wireless keyboard. Its range sucked so I took apart the receiver and wired up a telescoping antenna from an old radio. I was able to type from about 200ft away (3 houses down).
