Team Fortress 2 easily. Been playing since 2008. It scratches an itch that no other game can scratch. Ironically though, my second favorite fps game is also TF2 (Titan fall 2)

You might be my favorite person on Lemmy, that is a ton of great information! Thanks!

Yeah, that makes sense. Then the trim can be as flush as possible. We’re looking to do LVP floors since they’re waterproof and scratch resistant, which is pretty important when we have a dog who gets soaked every time he goes outside

Ooh that’s a good point on damaging the floors. We’re wanting to do LVP flooring, but we’ll probably wait until everything else is done first. Probably will do floors then base boards, I like the idea of getting it as close as possible

Woah, those are pricey but exactly what I’m looking for! I might have to bite the bullet and pick them up. Thanks!

Its not a stud, just a piece of fiber board screwed into place. Likely to be used as backing for a patch that never came. I’d just unscrew it and then swap to a double gang after cleaning up the hole

Its not a stud, its a piece of fiber board screwed into place. I’m guessing it was supposed to be backing for a patch that never happened. The double gang would be empty, just a blank wall plate, or half existing coax and half blank

Yup, it’s impressive how bad it is. It’s almost more work to be this bad lol. Its even worse if you notice that they didn’t cover up the coax ports to paint, so it’s entirely clogged up. If I wanted to use them, I would need to cut and re-terminate it.

Yup it’s just a backer board there. Easy enough to remove to switch to a double gang, but also easy ish to clean up and patch it, if I don’t texture

That looks like an easy option. Might not even have to remove the backer if it lines up right. We are planning on running ethernet but not here. It’s the corner of the dining room so it would be useless

Luckily it seems they didn’t touch the actual plumbing too much, but the aesthetic things around the plumbing. Like the tile around the shower faucet handle was done poorly and there’s gaps that need filling in. Or behind one remodeled sink they cut a huge hole in the drywall that’s almost star shaped somehow. But the plumbing connections at least seem to be done correctly.

Good tips for the tools. I’m lucky enough to live by a tool library so I’m checking there for anything I don’t have and I’ll only use it once or twice.

Thanks for the advice! I imagine I’ll get a better idea on what to scrap and start over after a few fixes. But I’ll try and keep this in mind when planning. And double thanks for the channel recommendations! Looks like a lot of good content to binge :)

I suppose you’re right. Plus there will be more content on Lemmy which is always good! Thanks!

We were thinking about that, but our yard is a bit complex with shape and existing features and would prefer a professional to help us think of any potential problems we’d run into.

Architect! That sounds more like what I’m wanting. I’ll search around for one, thanks!

The business I contacted had “landscape design and installation” on their website but It makes sense that they would want to do it all themselves. As for what we’re wanting: the lawn is in bad shape, gravel and construction waste throughout. So cleaning that up, and putting in native grass, with some drought resistant native plants. There’s a loose gravel area we’d like to replace with concrete or pavers or something. And there’s a small wood deck on the side we were thinking of expanding but not sure if it would look good. Plus we have a wonderful live oak tree that covers the entire yard with shade, and we’re not sure how to best design around it.

Assuming your smart TV is android, project ivy is my favorite.

Fantastic movie. I went in without knowing anything other than “People said it was good”, and I was blown away.

This post made me try again to find a solution, and maybe a USB extension cord with a on/off switch could work. It’s not automated but would be more convenient than removing the dongle each time. I’m thinking something like this

I have this exact same problem, but with a Chevy bolt. Some cars USB ports are “always on” and some aren’t. Might be worth trying different ones and see if there’s a port that doesn’t power on randomly. This didn’t work on my car, but it’s a common solution I came across when I was trying to figure it out. For now, I’ve just reverted back to wired AA.
