Ether Frenzy posted:went to the bar next door met and held a ferret Friendly ferrets own. I used to have a polecat lookin' one and an albino one, they were adorable idiots, forever getting themselves into mischief. The albino one managed to get into the bathroom while we were renovating it and get under the floorboards under the bath. After several hours of coaxing and thinking we may have to pull up the floor she emerged triumphant, proud that she'd explored every single bit of the space under the floor, completely grey from head to toe due to all the dirt/dust under there. One warm bath later and she was as good as new.

Gingerbread House Music posted:Ferrets are great, if slightly high maintenance pets. Also, you get used to the ankle biting, i swear. I had the complete opposite experience with my two, they were so playful and good-natured. They'd sleep most of the day so when I got home from work I'd let them out and they'd run around the house while I made dinner or whatever and then put themselves to bed when they got tired. On a few occasions I'd find them curled up in a drawer somewhere asleep, after the first time we put a little fleece bag in there for them to sleep in  shy boy from chess club posted:I had a few ferrets before I got into skunks and they are the best, they're so funny. I love when they do the war dance when they are playing. Only thing that sucks is that they are poop machines, they have a fast gi track and poop like 5 times a day. Still worth it. Mine were pretty well trained, they'd wake up from their naps, poop in their litter box and then want out to scamper about and explore. I know some people have ones that stole stuff but mine never did which I'm almost disappointed about. How do you have a skunk pet?

To bring this full-circle, at Thanksgiving in ten years' time STR Jr is going to mention chocolate cream pie and his parents are just going to glare at each other. OK so he can put it in her butt but then he has to eat it out afterwards to make sure. Is that better?

spog posted:Paying someone £225 to replace a fuel pump cause the tank needs to be dropped and I'm not doing that under jackstands. Dropped mine a bit ago, it really didn't want to come out at first and was a complete dick in all honesty due to the main nuts not wanting to loosen from 30 years of road grime blasted at them. Once it was off though the straps were cleaned and repainted with nice rubber paint before I put it back in to drive the car to the workshop it lives at now. Dropping it again next week, should be a lot easier now!

spog posted:Good to know: I'd feel a bit of a wuss if it turned out to be an easy job. The annoying bit was the fact the fuel pump wouldn't disconnect from the hard line due to the aforementioned 30 years of road grime on a connection. This meant I had to lower the tank about 3" (the entirety of the flex available on the lines) in order to remove the pump pretty much in-situ which necessitated pulling the bumper and the bumper structure too, twisting the fuel pump out of the tank whilst lowering the tank and getting the pump out of the way before the thing could be lowered entirely. 8/10 annoyance factor. I'll be replacing the lot before the car's back out on the roads again.

RWD depending on your point of view is the most fun you could ever have in snowy conditions or an incredibly focused, stressful experience. I've never driven particularly far in it and the snow wasn't deep but I learned that momentum is very much a thing you need to maintain. If you stop, chances are you'll get stuck. Shout out to the 3 burly boys heading to the pub for pushing me out of my parking spot.fridge corn posted:Find an empty car park after the first snowfall and go nuts And this is incredibly helpful to do. I live near a massive park and hit up the car park adjoining it when it snowed.

Suburban Dad posted:I changed the oil in my snowblower today and was confident I could do it without a drip. There's a little donger offshoot from the sump (parallel to the ground, no overhang so normally it would drip on the case) with the drain plug that I could put a funnel over immediately, then have it drain into a pan. Super easy, what could go wrong? The plug falling into the funnel, blocking it, and stopping it up within seconds. Let me whisper these words in your ear real quick; Fumoto oil drain valve. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VHIoQb2WPL0 *edit: snowblower. hmm, they mayyyy have one Olympic Mathlete fucked around with this message at 17:52 on Nov 13, 2018 |

BraveUlysses posted:Well I might as well ask in here, where should I place my left and right speakers? If you want suggested standard placement for speakers, centre under the screen, left/right speakers 30 degrees either side of screen from your seating position and surrounds 20 degrees behind your head from seating position. All tweeters at ear level if possible, angled if not. TV ideally should be mounted so when you’re sat down your eyelevel is mid-screen or just a tad higher (same plane as speakers which are ear level ideally) But people don’t tend to mount them above fireplaces if there’s any other choice so whatever.

Darchangel posted:I played Astro Bot on an acquaintance’s PSVR recently, and was amazed at how well it worked. It was beautiful. Astro Bot is a super cute little platformer that's really clever in the way you actually use the tech. Wipeout HD in VR made me feel violently ill. Rez is Rez so fantastic but I feel the standard HD version is best. Tetris Effect is incredibly immersive though and a super cool use of the headset and likely the one I'd play a long way down the line because the underlying game itself is just so good. The way the game is now linked to the music playing is super cool and there's times where you're getting snowed under due to the track heating up, your stack is approaching the top and then the song breaks and you can clear up your loving mess. You can use zone mode from stacking up lines, it causes any lines you get to stack up at the bottom and once it times out however many lines you stack up disappear at once. The max you can get is 16 lines which is a decahexatris. It's a seriously cool game, just a pity it's a Playstation exclusive.

Just when you think you're having a totally normal day someone walks into the office to ask you about putting a cat's collar on the wifi at work... We have a cat at work, he's twitter famous and basically lets himself into the various buildings here to go wandering, get fed, get pet and fall asleep on someone's chair. Due to him roaming so far from home (about 3 miles all in) his owners have gotten him a GPS collar to track his location, it also apparently has a wifi mode which would be very useful as we're fully wifi'd up everywhere and it's a pretty huge place. Sadly the app to do this is too dumb to work with commercial wifi so we can't make it work for him.

Applebees Appetizer posted:Haha wow. It was ridiculous. I get that it's an over the top action movie but come on, lets have some semblance of reality to keep people from going "well this is really loving stupid". People who watch Fast and Furious films think there's any semblance of reality in them? The Rio one had them pull a bank vault with a Dodge Magnum... the only thing 'real' about FnF films is the fact they take place on 'Earth' with human looking people driving things we know as cars. That's it. If you want realism you're wayyyyyyyyyyyyyy off track sitting down in front of a FnF movie.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zD2ozQ4HFsE What is this realism you speak of?? Fully agree that it's way out there in terms of realism but this is a movie where the original had a 1/4 mile drag race where it lasted for like 60 seconds and the cars changed gears about 12 times each during. It's not like the series got more stupid as it went on, it was always dumb as a brick. Olympic Mathlete fucked around with this message at 13:44 on Nov 28, 2018 |
