One of them Carpenter nerd types.

  • Well done, all of you!

    Jump

  • Hello, yes. I work in construction. I carry 50+lbs (23+kg) of tools and/or material to work (which constantly changes locations as buildings and projects finished being built).

    How do I fit into the walkable city plan?

  • Are you telling me they don't?

    Jump

  • Third option is it does the bare minimum violence required to get enough resources to launch itself out into space, where it has more than enough resources and energy to expand across the system and possibly further. Leaving humanity behind on our one space rock and locking us out of every other option.

  • That kid was the WORST

    Jump

  • Other than possibly confusing me for our dad, yeah. I'd be impressed by what I have accomplished. I'd also be annoyed at the life advice I'd give myself.

  • People who journal, why?

    Jump

  • I'm about to restart journaling, though it's only to cover my ass at work. I am entering a new phase of work with some known problem people who might have higher responsibility over me, so I'm doing it purely to show someone else down the line that whatever happened, I was just doing my work (as was assigned by incompetent managers).

  • What kind of rounding has to be done to assume not using the bathroom constitutes 4 to 5 hours daily?!

  • Replacing a bathroom showerpan: $9k+

    Jump

  • Professionals messing with water systems are always well overcosted for the seeming scope of work. The reason being that they need to take out the pan, the walls, some tiles, inspect the floor around the area, remove and replace whatever seems like it's been damaged, find replacement tiles that are either the same or similar.. and the most important part is that they make sure that if they have to come back in 5-30 years for any leaks, they want that to be covered up front as well. You're effectively paying for leak insurance from them for the next however many years they offer, as well as a potentially brand new bathroom built if the damage is bad enough.

    You want a one day fix for a singular part of a greater (and notably damaged) area. They want to make sure they do it once, and then don't ever hear from you again for that particular part. So there's all of that and quotes apply Murphy's Law for unseen issues. The whole floor may need to be replaced, every structural member under the floor might be weakened from excessive water damage and needs either replacement or support, if you have tiles on the walls, some of the walls may need replacement, if there's an exterior wall involved there they might need to check the those structural members for damage and then possibly replace them, etc. It extends to the whole room and a bit beyond.

    I'm going to guess the 16k quote was a "I don't want to do this, so price multiplied to assure I don't need to". My only suggestion is to ask around among others you know if they've had work done and by who. There are plenty of freelancers out there who will do exactly the one part you want to do and charge (based on current info) somewhere around 1.5-3k to do just the part of the job you want done, with none of the protections from the larger companies aside from immediate leak issues. Finding a competent freelancer is the toughest part, which is why I always suggest getting one from someone else who has had a good experience (or more).

  • I'd be happy to buy them off of you at some point if you'd be willing to sell em.

  • Given that my average deck price is $250, you best believe I'd start gathering.

  • I for one am perfectly ok with everyone being called chicks. I can't help but imagine everyone as a fuzzy yellow baby bird, and that brings me joy. I completely get the post.. but cute birds for everyone!

  • Do you shower facing the shower or away from it?

    Jump

  • It would make sense to do hair first.. but I think the reason I generally do it last is because while I'm waiting on the water/body acclimation, I'm already slathering with soap and as a result, hair care is pushed to the back as a result.

  • why does almost nobody live here?

    Jump

  • Saw Seattle, didn't think further.

  • [Cities Skylines 2] Office Evolution & City Stations - Available Now!

    Jump

  • There comes a point in a games release where I wonder the detriment of releasing so much dlc it towers over the base game by almost 3 times. I see a nearly $200 city sim and am completely turned away as a prospective purchaser. Though I admit I'm curious about the radio station dlcs which seem to be in-universe albums with voice over segments and an hour of music.

  • why does almost nobody live here?

    Jump

  • Based on the voting districts alone, those areas aren't the least populated in the state, but they're also definitely not cities.

    Since those areas also don't have hiking trails unlike a huge swath of the state, I'm going guess the terrain along the coast there is not easily traverseable.

  • I'm not an expert in any way, but I know of one way to take a grenade apart.

    Though I would think there are less explosive methods that likely take specialized tools, much like disassembling bullets from their casings.
