My AC will cool the house, but it will still be uncomfortably humid. I haven’t tried a dehumidifier in addition to the AC, but I’ve been tempted. I don’t want to take the temp in the house too low.

The curse of competence.

Being smart means I keep getting handed more work.

I’m in Chicago. The code here requires conduit. Which is funny that they would try and follow that but not how it connect it to the junction boxes.

This is (well was) a finished basement. I’m pretty that box inside the wall is in a concrete wall. When they finished the basement, my only guess is they didn’t want to deal with that wall and just added a wooden framed one against it to hang the sheet rock and make pretty. The house is from the 1950s, not a low income area, just old. It all looks like someone who knows enough to be dangerous. When I moved in, I replaced just about every outlet and added GFCI since it didn’t have any. That alone saved me from the house burning down while I was on vacation a few months later.

I think the box that’s sunk into the wall is in concrete. That’s where the power comes in. I’m in Chicago and the code here requires conduit, so I don’t think it’s FMC.

The FMC I think I want to replace with some 12/2 FMC I have so I can get it to the correct length and have fewer junctions.

I’m not sure I can do much with the single gang box, but what I am thinking is extend that out with a ring, use new 12/2 FMC with a ground wire and put a cover on it. Then install an access panel in the drywall so it’s not concealed. It only goes to a single outlet downstream. Would that be up to code?

Bonus: This circuit goes to the can lighting in the ceiling. This was hiding behind a bar a previous home owner installed. (And another concealed junction box)

This one I can’t rerun the FMC, but I have a ground wire Im going to try to pull through.

From my understanding, NEC doesn’t allow junction boxes to be concealed. So I can’t just drywall this back up once I fix the jank wiring. I think my best move here it to add an extension ring to the single gang box, redo the FMC and properly connect everything and put a cover on it. Then put in an access panel in the drywall to try and meet code.

First responders need to know that there are two chemicals inside so that they don’t stop taking precautions when they encounter the first one.

I have techs I work with that keep wanting to climb the it ladder. I keep telling them to go deploy something at home. Build a network. Setup a separate DNS and DHCP server than your router.

If you work with Microsoft. It might still be good to spin up an AD domain just so you know what that’s like.

If someone walked in saying they did even those basic things, I think theyd be more experienced than most people that walk in the door.

He was an incredible man. If only we could have him back.

So wild that Fox News called him evil.

As an American living in America. I want to avoid America completely.

This is basically what killed my Linux laptop. Some windows update borked the partitions (and not just grub) so that Linux wouldn’t boot anymore. I would never recommend using both on the same disk.

I don’t really use that laptop for much anymore though.

I like monero. Privacy is important and there really isn’t another way to pay online anonymously.

I wish there was an easier way to do it though and more places accepted it.

I don’t know what world you live in, where all your hobbies are so perfect that they don’t have any adverse effects at all to the world at large.

But God forbid, someone enjoys something you don’t.

You could extend that holier-than-thou attitude to your hobby of posting on the Internet from a device that releases tons of other shit from its manufacturing process and the electricity that powers it - maybe time to find a new ‘hobby’

Transportation as entertainment? Yes. Have you ridden a rollercoaster or even a bike?

The US CAN, you fucking asswipe. You don’t WANT to.

You are like a petulant child, only caring about what you want, you narcissistic prick.

Using phrases like “Highly infeasible” and “improbable” when talking about how he will find the cause by September is disengious. Phrasing it that way makes it sound like there is even a chance.

Say it like it is. A lie. It WILL NOT happen. It is impossible. The decades of research aren’t just going to “conclude” because he magically decided to focus on it. It’s not a simple cause and effect.

I don’t think we should create arbitrary punishments for him. He is subject to due process and the maximum punishment prescribed by law. Just the same as anyone else in this country.

Charge his ass with Treason and give him the maximum punishment.

I got tools. Lots of parts I can reuse

We have a lot of corrupt people in our government.

Did he look in the mirror?

I’m not wearing it now. But I have an old Casio calculator watch I wear.

Same one Dennis Nerdy wears in Jurassic Park

Isn’t this “vandalism” not denouncing hate?

I kinda hope Zelenskyy does it to us.
