/diy/ - Do It Yourself

Rented a house where the pervious "people" had a hot tub in the basement. Fucked the place up. When the AC went out and humidity went up could feel the mold.

>>2450565
somehow I see the appeal

>>2450568
I was in a house that had something similar once, but the owner nigger-rigged up a dehumidifier that dumped right back into the hot tub

In elementary school they showed us photos of what spider webs looked like if the spiders were given different types of drugs. Apparently the tile guy in this town didn't know about that.

>>2450565
Isn't there some art museum/house in Pittsburgh that has a big boulder in one room? And a staircase where the handrail has a tiny warm water trough running down it?

>>2450565

>>2450565
The floor is missing around the rock, are they building in a cave and couldn't be bothered demoing the boulder?

>>2450699
Pic related is what was in the sales brochure.

>>2450566
It's an odd one, a business of some kind that dress that window to make the office look like it has more floors from the outside.

It was typical 'DARE to be drugfree' propaganda that we were showered with in the 80s.

>>2450720
it's not real, it's an anti-drinking ad if I remember correctly. you can search "spider on drugs" and you'll find it

>>2450725
The studies are real and go back to the mid 1950s.

People mischaracterizing them for "educational" propaganda purposes goes back to about seven minutes after that article hit the newsstands.

I do that with my dehumidifier and pool, I paid good money to extract that water from the air

I have seen shit like this in hotels. They often have these little alcoves on the 2nd floor. More often than not there is a hall that can look across and see the weird things they choose todo with that nothing space. One I stayed at had 4 christmas trees in 4 windows but none were lit. It was summer and there were wrapped boxes at the base of the trees. Maybe someone goes up there and plugs them in November and unplugs them in Janurary?

>>2450720
Quite reasonable performance. All of that stuff degrades mental performance significantly.

That is a Canadian mocking a scientific study. Funny, cute but after seeing it years ago I had to find out where the joke derived from. And it derived from a very real study that consistently provided results in effecting arachnid behavior.

>>2450717
No, that's been a thing for a while. From what I remember, it started as a hotel that had a unused space above the door, so they put chairs up there because they didn't know what else to do with the space, and then apparently there were a lot of hotel lobbies with wasted space like that, so they all started doing it.

If they haven't solved water fucking up electronics by the time humans are conveniently living on other plants we should just nuke ourselves.

Its like that joke where they say we put a man on the moon before we put wheels on luggage. Its not true, but if it was, fuck us.

>>2451078

>>2451277
Never thought of that image as being on another planet but I guess it could be.

>>2451277
We solved it ages ago.
Water doesn't do shit to electronics and is non-conductive.
The problem is the stuff mixed in water and the shit left behind when it evaporates shit

A splash resistant pinball machine should not be a huge challenge. The plunger is probably the only somewhat tricky part since whatever membrane used to keep the ball compartment from moisture encroachment would wear out. But plungerless pinball machines are hardly rare, so using a button instead would be fine. Buttons for wet environments are a solved problem.

>>2451299
Thank you captain pedant, no one cares.
Even pure water is a problem for electronics, because if the electronics aren't perfectly clean and conformal coated, the water will dissolve shit and become conductive.

>>2451277
>living on other plants
plants lol
but altho it could be a sealed hab and the com dish outside looks pretty heavy duty, if you look at the sky you can see 1 large moon shining brightly white in the sky so that excludes any other planets for this to be on
maybe it could be on earths moon and the artist miscolored the earth in the sky, but my bet is that this is a mountain retreat rather than a space colonization picture
unless you have a link to the artists intend, but then he still fucked up in the drawing

>>2451325
Eh, the pinball image was just a thing I put up cause it was tangentially related and looks cool. IIRC it was a DIY conversion made by a museum out of an old pinball machine to show people how they worked. It was one of the later electro-mechanical pinball machines so it was pretty complex. A few years later, solid state models would take over and they reduced the complexity of the machines considerably. The insides were just some wires and PCBs after that. The last 1970's EM models were monsters inside.

As for the Paul Alexander work, I dug it up. It is from 1980 magazine called the 'Playboy Guide Electronic Entertainment' from Fall 1980 and does indeed showcase a mountain retreat instead of a space base. It is also missing a third of the image. Here it is in full. As it crossed the fold, I am guessing the only ones online are from a scan and no one has found the original or cleaned it up in photoshop.

Anyway, holy shit is this a read. Its on Archive.org for free and it is a product of its era. Between ads for the Atari 400 & 800 computer, a HUGE indoor FM antenna, and deluxe record cleaners, it has articles on the latest computers, consoles, & video games, 'talking' video games and pinball machines, and interviews with Steve Jobs (a fucking nobody in 1980), Robert Carver (famous hi-fi designer from the 1970s), Henry Kloss (ditto but more so), Ray Gates (a VP at Panasonic at the time), and Isaac Asimov, about the future of electronics. It is both comically inaccurate about what would come to pass and also very nearly spot on, depending on which thing they were talking about. As for the article the picture is from, it starts

"These modest bachelor digs may look a trifle futuristic, but there’s nothing here you couldn't build into your own little mountain lair next year - with some help from your neighborhood architect, a few Japanese electronic engineers, and that fat raise you've had coming for some time."

>>2450711
it's a tile floor.
either the rock broke the tile or they removed the tile so the rock wouldn't break it.

>>2451318

>>2451427
I like to imagine that it's a rock that rolled down a nearby hill and smashed through the wall into the building. Due to its size and the difficulty in removing it, they decided to just repair the wall and let the rock stay.
>>2451433
Really weird theme for a pinball machine. Can't tell if it is supportive or mocking them.

To coax the prey into the pool, or are you referring to us for when we eat our prey?

>>2451470
>Disappointed there's no fondue set.
In all seriousness, I remember hearing everyone say those things didn't work well, at least for whatever they used it for (probably not properly), and that it got some people sick. I don't know how the hell you can fuck up fondue so bad, but apparently they managed to.

>>2451470
Rock rights hurray!

>>2451512
Well sometimes its a shame not to use all the pipe you have

>>2451512
I don't see anything wrong with this, looks pretty normal to me. That's probably a problem...

>>2451514
>Clicks second image
Ah I see what you're referring to now, all that plaster. Looks like they got plaster on the whole valve thing too (not just the knob). Looks like shit here, but under a sink I've seen shit jobs many times cause "nobody will see it".

Also, who put that trim on before they painted the drywall? Why?

>>2451514
And speaking of plaster, I've seen this one house that had popcorn ceilings, and one of the previous owners had removed something that was mounted to the ceiling and used a knife to cut into the plaster they put down to try and get it to match the rest... It did not match the rest, it was blatantly obvious that (bad) work was done there. They could've just used a sponge like how the rest of the popcorn ceiling appears to have been made.

That house was fucked up, there was even wallpaper on the edges of the ceiling and window trim. The worst part was that the previous owner was apparently proud of his work. The wallpaper pattern didn't even match where the sheets ended either.

>>2451512
What's wrong with this? Walls a bit of a mess but it's under the vanity so doesn't really matter, pretty common to not paint back there

>>2451570
Actual popcorn ceilings were not done with sponges. They were done with spray guns. Early coatings contained asbestos to give the chunky texture. Later versions had Styrofoam.

>>2451584
I'm not sure if that ceiling was original or not, but whoever did it clearly did it with a sponge, or something like that. That thing was all plaster when I got close to it, it looked most similar to the "texture" section in your pic. But I can tell the exact size of the thing they used, and there was a slight pattern to it because of it, but then you see this random square in the ceiling that's looks like it's been all hacked up with a knife to try and (poorly) match it with the rest of the ceiling.

>>2450934
corners have been cut for sure

>>2451557
Dumb people try to operate them with tea lights. Also they get impatient waiting for meat to cook and often don't keep the meat chilled cold enough before cooking. Fondue is pretty easy but if you're stupid, there are plenty of ways to mess up. Precooked meat and only using the fondue pots for cheese and chocolate dips is the way to go for those who can't follow basic kitchen safety rules.

>>2451761
Your expectations for a men's magazine from 1980 are far above what's reasonable.

>>2451623
I kinda thought so. I'm pretty sure whenever these people tried fondue was at a party, so they probably got a bunch of impatient people who didn't know how to use it all together, and that's also probably the first time they ever brought it out so I imagine it was a pretty rushed scenario trying to figure out how to use it. I did indeed hear them say that it works best for coating stuff in chocolate though.

I kinda thought it must've been undercooked meat that got people sick. But this whole thing about fondue got me thinking about what raw meat and cheese must taste like, I bet it's pretty good, I like raw meat. Now I wanna get a fondue set just so I can do this.

>>2451778
If you want to eat raw meat, why not just do it? What purpose does the fondue set have in such a scenario?

>>2451822
I do, fondue just sounds like it would taste good with it as well.

Just because it's raw meat doesn't mean you're not allowed to eat it like any other food, with seasonings and sides and all that.

Homes build into the side of hills or mountains can make clever use of the surrounding terrain in ways like that. knew a stupid rich guy whose parents own a house in the richest part of our city - it's on a mountain preserve in the middle of town. The wall of their movie theatre is the exposed mountain and it's a really impressive reminder of where they built their mansion.

I'm also pretty sure that is either on a colony planet or in an evil volcano lair. Look if you are gonna go to the effort of building in an active volcano, you damn well are going to flex on that fact visually.

something witty about our political system idk

>>2452248
No, in pre-WWII Switzerland that's what it meant. We don't all live in Switzerland. In much of the world, it means dipping foods into hot liquids in a common pot. Now, I'm sure you can go back to the 1842 Confederacy Dictionary and post that it's just bread and cheese to prove that you don't understand how language evolves or how the meaning of words change when they move from culture to culture. You might think that will protect your fragile "LOOK AT ME, I'M A SMART BOY" gamma ego, but at the end of the day, everyone can see you're an attention seeker with no understanding of the world.
tl;dr: Don't "correct" people when you're incorrect and don't "correct" people for attention seeking purposes.

That's actually not a bad idea. I'd set up my dehumidifier to do something like that if I had it. Using a drain hose instead of the built in tank, is the water safe enough to drink? I've been thinking of using dehumidifier runoff for tea or coffee.

>>2452523
Ehh, I'd run it through a filter or whatever. Anything that was in the air that the dehumidifer sucked over the coils will be in the water that condenses out

The 1950s weren't actually Leave it to Beaver embodied. This picture of purity is fake as it gets, and only the negatives have trickled down. Could go on and on about how psychedelics and weed are banned with stiff criminal sentences while alcohol and tobacco are free to ravage bodies and minds far worse, but we're already nearing the line here. I will say I prefer now to then in at least one regard: I won't get called a satanic commie spy because I've grown my hair out instead of at best sporting a pompadour or military haircut.

>i miss the time when BBC america played a good mix of british comedies.
They don't? I never really watched BBC, but I thought they played the a lot of the same content that they did in Britain. Maybe they used to, but if they don't anymore then I don't really see a point in watching them over anyone else. The reason anyone ever tuned in to foreign channels was to watch foreign content, not the same domestic content. Do I have the situation correct, or am I all misconstrued about it?

Also, what happened with CBC? I never really watched them either except for Marketplace.

Also, does anybody even remember anymore that The Office was an adaptation of the original British show of the same name? I never see anyone talk about the British version anymore, haven't in years. Almost seems like it's been forgotten about.

>>2452847
any time i look at it, they have dr. who, which is british, star trek, or news.
a lot of stuff was originaly british, sanford and son was pulled from a show called steptoe and son, but i think most of the episodes were lost to time in a bbc purge.

>>2452533
I'm not so sure it's a good idea to drink. It's probably very mildewy. You know those air conditioners that when you turn them on it has that musty smell? That's caused by mildew, bacteria, and stuff like that, from the AC condenser condensing water vapor onto it and making the condenser housing a wet environment. A dehumidifier obviously isn't an AC unit, but the same principle applies here; wet environment equals bacteria and mold growth. If it's clean, then I suppose it's fine, but you would have to clean it routinely to prevent growth of unhealthy shit if you wanna drink it.

The dehumidifier at my workplace has this weird orange substance coating the inside of the tank part. That thing obviously isn't clean and I wouldn't want to drink it, despite people daring each other to do it. It doesn't look THAT bad, but it's quite obviously mildew growth.

>>2452710
I'm probably too dumb to understand what you're referring to by "knock downs", but in the case of the house I mentioned, they were quite obviously trying to make a textured ceiling intentionally. It wasn't a failed result of trying to do anything else. It actually looked nice, they took a pretty big sponge and pressed it against the wet plaster over and over again across the whole ceiling.

>>2452715
They seriously couldn't have put that flat against the wall?

>>2452743
That's why you gotta make a maze of pipes.

>>2452851
I already know about Steptoe and Son. The thing that's weird is when I first heard the theme song of that show, and saw part of one of the episodes, it all seemed familiar for some reason, I don't know why. I don't know where I could've possibly seen it before, it was weird...

What's this BBC purge you mentioned though? did they destroy a bunch of archived shit?

How did they hang and paint the sheet rock behind that rock o_o

>>2455713
They probably moved the rock there after doing those walls and then built the walls which are behind the camera.
I suppose if they were crazy they could have built the walls around the rock and done the sheet rock on the ground before the walls were raised.

>>2455715
That house was definately built around the rock. Raising finished walls is the only way I could think of. The duct work boxing could have been done after, but that requires spackle and paint after.
It's a mystery I suppose

>>2450565

> other people have a rotary hammer drill and a big rock
It's very unsatisfying, trust me. Chipping away at rock is very slow going. Also, your drill better be one powered by a honking big compressor (the big diesel compressor type on a trailer you use for powering jackhammers) - you can forget about anything electric. And if you do have that sort of equipment, you'll be able to just about drill a row of holes for the hydraulic wedges to split the motherfucker apart with. Just about because you'll chew up drill bits like candy. Also, forget abou breaking it apart with a jackhammer. For this guy this would take about 2-3 weeks of constant *BRRRRRRT* and use up a ridiculous number of chisels.

>>2455289
It's not raw meat and cheese. Meat "fondue" is meat cooked in a hot broth.

I just don't have a fondue set. I've eaten raw meat before but it isn't easy to find the opportunity for it cause I live with others and I have to find the opportunity to be alone so I could munch on a raw steak. I don't want them to think I'm a freak.

I like posting about it here though cause I find it hilarious that some people find eating raw meat revolting.

My gripe is, how the hell are you going to get stuff up and down? Can you imagine trying to carry furniture up this fucking thing? I've had to help people carry couches, TVs, etc. up stairs and trying to picture myself walking backwards (or hell even forwards) up these things carrying something is freaking me the fuck out. I'd have to have a barren ass 2nd floor to live here.

I almost didn't want to post this so you keep calling it meat fondue irl like a fucking retard kek

>>2456483
I probably could, I honestly didn't think of that. Thanks.

I don't imagine I'll have very much opportunity for this though. It's not often that I'm the only one home for a long period of time, most of the time I've eaten raw meat, I've done it in my car parked in a secluded area. I haven't been doing it very long, I've only had several raw steaks, but I wish I knew where to find higher quality meat. It tastes like they fed these cows fucking garbage, and I already know they did. It's still edible, but I know it can be better, and have a non chemical taste.

>>2457114
Well, he did put it in quotes, so he seemed to know it wasn't actually the correct term.

I'm the one who said "meat fondue" originally, because I was actually referring to meat and cheese, but he thought I meant the hotpot stuff and was trying to clarify.

>>2457146
Why are you eating raw meat in a parked car?

>>2456395
I used to do this shit on my old tv. I had a corkscrew I took the wooden handle off of, and then jammed it into the aerial port.

>>2457146
>I wish I knew where to find higher quality meat
find a local butcher, or look for people in the cow-town areas near you selling grass fed beefs, though if you go with the second option you may need to buy half a cow at a go.
if you have any amount of space, you could raise you own beeves, miniature cattle are supposed to have a higher protein to weight ratio than a standard sized cow

>>2457114
doesn't meat fondue generally use hot oil though, not both?

You just need a fork, a pot to melt the cheese in and some thinly sliced meat.

Pallets have boards going across their runners. Skids stop at the runners.

>>2462719
I also see BOLs refer to bunks of lumber, roofing, etc. as skids when they are banded to stickers; although I have never heard anyone refer to them as skids in conversation.
I think the main distinction is that in skids the slots for the forks are open on the bottom?

>>2462748
There are boards on the bottom side of those pallets. those are 4-way pallets though and have a lot of empty space on the underside, not like your traditional C-channel pallet.
