Somewhat Heroic posted:I bought a Weber Genesis LX 3 burner natural gas grill and I have loved it. Igor the stainless model. The grates are stainless steel too and it has a closed cabinet on the bottom. With all the grilling I do now with my wife’s dietary needs I’m using it two or three times a week. With the natural gas it has no problem getting up to 650+* and it is easy to cook with direct or indirect heat. Just the right amount of cooking area for a pretty good spread too. I don't know my exact model, but I've got a stainless Genesis 3 burner that I've had for about 7 years. Outside with no cover. Still looks nearly new. Some flaking of the Weber logo, other than that, nada. Quick buff up in the Spring and it sparkles. Get the stainless one with all stainless interior parts. So nice. Also, go natural gas. It's so loving convenient and so nice to never worry about propane bottles.

Yu-Gi-Ho! posted:Geico called me and said they won't let me keep collision on my car, and very pushy about removing comprehensive. Agreed to removing it. They said once I get the car fixed up, I can have them inspect it to see if they'll cover it for more than scrap value again. I'm still waiting to see what happens with the title. Both times I've dealt with a total, the insurance company has require the title to be branded. It makes sense for them.

Yu-Gi-Ho! posted:They do, but the claims rep told me it'll keep a clean title since I'm keeping it. When my CJ-8 got totalled, I had to take the title to the BMV myself, change it to a salvage title, then take the title to the insurance company and they wrote the check. Then the whole re-certifying deal started. It was a big pain, but I got paid for the truck, fixed it for less than $1000 and got paid for the truck again when I sold it after re-certifying, so it was worthwhile.

gently caress the steaming pile of cancer that is YouTube targeted to kids. I've got a traumatized 8 year old, because my dumbfuck brother-in-law and his wife don't pay any attention to what their kids watch. We were at a family gathering on Saturday and my 8 year old girl ran off to play with their 10 year old girl. Just like they always do. Except, after that, she's been inconsolable with her crying about this scary video the 10 year old showed her. What did she describe? The exact scene of 4:30-ish here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2tjd8no-9Eo Holy gently caress. That whole douche bag's channel is a steaming pile of cancer. And that video should NEVER be seen by anyone, much less a 10 year old. I've got my kids on a pretty solid supervisory system. They know I watch what they watch and I search their history. They have NEVER strayed... it's just not in them right now. But now I'm uber-pissed off about this, because I don't even know how to deal with an absolutely innocent 8 year old having seen that poo poo, explaining it to her that it's meant to scare adults, and it's only makeup and scary camera shots, and then have her say "I know that in my brain, but my eyes keep seeing it" as she sobs. gently caress people.

BraveUlysses posted:the scene at 4:30 isnt nearly as bad as the one after it I didn't watch past the 4:30 scene, apparently the 10 year old had already seen it and determined that the scene that followed was too scary.  I talked with her about it some more and she said that knowing it was a mask helped her make sense of it. She's tough, she'll figure it out... I'm just pissed that she has to. LloydDobler posted:Are you saying that was available on the kids filtered version of youtube? Or is it not caught by the regular 18-up filter? I monitored use with my daughter very heavily too so I never used any of their filtering. I also started showing her scarier PG movies at around that age but nothing like that clip. This was not on kid's youtube, it was on regular. I know it's unmonitored and unfiltered, that's why my 8 year old doesn't have access to it. (I know there's problems with kid's youtube, too, but from what I've seen, that's more of a fringe problem... my girl watches Dr. Squish, puppy vids, DIYs and these weird "family" shows that are just a camera in front of a family of attention whores doing stuff... not my thing, but no real harm in any of that). I made the mistake of assuming my in-laws had some kind of control or oversight of what their kids watch, and their response was a virtual shoulder shrug, so that's a problem for me... hell, if a parent comes to me with an issue regarding my child, I assume it's the truth, just because poo poo happens in life... I can't stand people that stick their heads in the sand and pretend that their snowflakes are the mostest preciousest things out there. A little bit of responsibility-taking goes a long way. I was into scary stuff early on, Fangoria, the Dawn of the Dead series, stuff like that, but even that was ~12 years old or so... the line between something young kids should see and what they should really not see can be super thin now. I talked to her about it and last night was better, she'll be okay. I'm still pissed, though. Edit: Followup -- just got a text from my BiL. His 10 year old came to him crying this morning and copped to everything. So now he believes her and he apologized for the situation. That makes it okay with me, but it's still not cool that he couldn't see through his 10 year old's bullshit, in spite of overwhelming evidence.

Applebees Appetizer posted:Not surprised at all with that. A neighbor of ours whos child was kind of friends with my son never did anything wrong, even tho I myself witnessed him blast another much younger kid in the face with a soccer ball point blank and told his idiot mother, she refused to believe it happened because the kid denied it. Ok, you want to play that game? From them on, any time the kid sneezed in the wrong direction I sent him home and he eventually just stopped coming around. Buh-bye! Yeah, it's frustrating, but it's passing. I don't think I helicopter, hell, she broke her arm a couple weeks ago doing gymnastics in a friend's basement and that barely raised my pulse... kids are going to be kids. But the internet now is not something kids (sub-teens) should have unregulated access to. Too much stuff out there that can impact development. LloydDobler posted:Oh wow, you didn't mention that they were denying it. That'd piss me off too. At least if everyone's on the same level you can all talk about what is ok and what isn't, and make sure it doesn't happen again. It ended up okay, but the initial denial of responsibility was tough to take.

I must not have been clear. Of course a child that age is going to lie, I agree... That's typical development. The problem I had was the child's FATHER assuming his snowflake could do no wrong and his lack of responsibility-taking. Or maybe we were saying the same thing.

Cheap Ring doorbell if anyone's looking. Amazon bought them and dropped the base price to $99. The warehouse price is $89.99, but for some reason there's a 20% off discount that kicks in on the satin nickel one, bringing the Prime price down to $77 delivered after tax in my case. I needed a replacement doorbell anyway, so cheap upgrade. https://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B00N2ZDXW2/ref=dp_olp_all_mbc?ie=UTF8&condition=all

Have you taken a look at what specifically broke? Any chance of repairing in the off-season?

Fermented Tinal posted:If you go with pex, make sure you either use the full plastic stuff that has the expansion tool for the crimps, or use the ring crimps (typically copper) and not the gear-clampish ones with the nub (typically stainless steel). My basment flooded this winter because of a stainless steel ring clamp failure where the crimp nub opened up and released tension on the crimp, that was rectified by just using copper ring crimps instead. Basically if the crimping tool doesn't look like a space gun or a really big pair of old-style coax crimpers (but with round holes instead of hexes), and instead looks a bit like end nippers, don't use them. I thought the way to do PEX was with the new robo-tools that expand the tubing and let it contract around the barbed fittings?

Fermented Tinal posted:Read the first sentence. That's expensive though, and the tools are crazy not-cheap. You can still get the older style of pex and it's easier to retrofit with that. We're looking at different things. From what I've seen, there's a crimpless/clampless fitting type that expands the tubing and it re-shrinks over a barb. Seems to be the best way to PEX.

Maker Of Shoes posted:Android. I'd be tempted by an apple watch if I liked iOS but I don't and I'm still not completely sold on a full on smart watch. I wish there would be some smart watch development, but it seems utterly stagnant. Last year I got a Huawei Watch 2 and it was really nice, but limited in its functions. I sent it back and got a Motorola 360 Sport off of eBay for $50 and, for most purposes, it's comparable... meaning... it doesn't do much. I'd like to have full fitbit-level biometrics, along with good cell phone integration and good battery life, but really it's a watch that happens to notify me of texts and emails and can control the media I'm consuming. There could be so much more...
