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!

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.

They should use Lithium Iron batteries for a real LiFe pro tip
