  • That tile job is absolutely terrible. Who puts in a 60cm tile and leaves a 2CM piece in the corner? Put your grout line in the middle and have two equal size pieces.

    Also the lippage is pretty rough on the upper left. The grout line expands significantly where the two pieces meet because they are not set at the same depths. The installer should not be installing tile.






  • To correct any misinformation in this post- what you have is porcelain tile installed very, very poorly. You can install tile in this pattern- it is not an issue with tile. However, what’s underneath is very concerning. I have never seen that much mortar used.

    You need to get a professional in, even if to look at it and give advice. My guess is if they used that much mortar, it would all need to come out and actual cement board would be needed as a base to bring the flooring to the appropriate height.




  • So what’s the best way to go about this? I’m new to it and just have a general knowledge.

    I have a NAS and could stream through something like Jellyfin, but do I have to find each episode/movie, or do I need to manually download those?

    I have a Shield for streaming, and could rebuild that for streaming. I’ve tried Kodi though and don’t care for the layout. I would pay for a simple service that has everything from all providers, but I don’t know where to even start looking for that.



  • What’s crazy is that I wasn’t familiar with erythritol, and searched to see what had it as an ingredient. The entire first page of results were almost all the same AI generated cream touting the benefits of erythritol, like they were trying to sell me on it. And no specific foods were listed that had it as an ingredient.

    There were a lot of things like “consider the delicious possibilities that erythritol can bring to your table.” Someone is trying to sell it that hard, then that alone tells me I should probably avoid it.





  • Is this post about 2001 or 2025? He voted for Obama and spoke out against Trump. A lot of people were supportive of Bush as a reaction to 9/11, which of course changed over time.

    I’m not defending Keith’s actions at that time, just saying that there are plenty of artists that strongly support MAGA, that are also still alive today, who would probably make a lot more sense.




  • I used to work for HHGregg selling appliances. I didn’t want to work there, but needed a job and was pretty good at it. We were pushed pretty hard to hit our numbers, including selling the extended warranties. About three months in the sales manager was taking each sales person into the office to have us agree to how we would sell these warranties, which included some using some misleading tactics and language, to the extent that it was outright false. I told them that I refused to lie to customers, and they said anyone that didn’t sign their name to the new program could not continue to work. So I walked out. First and only time I’ve had to do that, and now HHGregg is out of business. Fuck that place.
