I had to upgrade my EdgeRouterX when I got gig fiber. I kept the Ubiquiti APs, I really like their management interface. But I replaced the router with a Mikrotik RB4011iGS+ because I thought it had a better feature set than the equivalent UBNT and was half the price.

We call that “Upper Midwest Spicy” in my house.

Living in salt country, I’ve found heat and percussion to be helpful. Hold a soldering iron to the nut for 3-5 minutes, then wail on it with a rubber mallet. Repeat a few times if needed. Usually loosens up the fastener because it dislodges the gunk in the threads.

Frigate is the next big rock on my migration to lower power hardware. How are you running it? I’m trying to move to incus but I tested it on Docker. I need to get off my my W10 blueiris install.

also does a good job of breaking down the column types.

International Residential Code R407.3 is pretty clear about the post needing to be Schedule 40, 3" in diameter. IMO, this is not code-compliant.

“The columns shall be restrained to prevent lateral displacement at the bottom end and attached to framing at the top. Wood columns shall be not less in nominal size than 4 inches by 4 inches (102 mm by 102 mm). Steel columns shall be not less than 3 inch diameter (76 mm) Schedule 40 pipe manufactured in accordance with ASTM A53 Grade B or approved equivalent.”

The column is clearly not 3" diameter, nor schedule 40. The number of missing bolts in the bottom would fail the lateral movement restriction. The IRC is almost certainly referenced by your local building code. For example, in NY it’s at https://codes.iccsafe.org/content/NYSRC2020P1 , and for Washington https://codes.iccsafe.org/content/WARC2021P1 . You should be able to find the referenced code for your state.

502.5 mentions span tables you can use to determine if the spans are compliant. I’d wager they aren’t, given the shoddy work.

Those span tables are in 602.7(1) AND 602.7(2).

I can’t remember the IRC code that says all holes must be filled, and it’s already past my bedtime. I’ll do some more searching tomorrow.

Splitting the 2x8 by not drilling a pilot hole and failure to fill all four holes in the top of the jack would likely be an instant failure by the building inspectors here.

Lots of options, but I prefer Red Bubble: https://www.redbubble.com/i/t-shirt/I-Out-Pizza-d-The-Hut-And-Now-The-Cia-Is-Trying-To-Assassinate-Me-Meme-by-bardBumper/155932821.WFLAH

Phineas and Ferb. That’s Dr. Doofenshmirtz.

Either Rain Man, Rocky Horror Picture Show, or Clue, depending on how I’m feeling that day.

If ours sold flamethrowers, I’d currently be out burning things that don’t necessarily need burnt, but alas.

I’m guessing so. I’m in the Northeast US and our Aldi stores have a Hispanic end cap, but don’t sell chickpeas; I just looked earlier this week.

Check the bottom shelf of the Hispanic end cap. That’s where they are in the 3 Aldi stores nearby.

From an earlier post I made much like yours, I decided to go with incus. I’d be fully migrated if real life hadn’t kicked me in the taint for a few weeks.

Nighthawks is one of my two favorite paintings ever and I appreciate this rendition greatly.
