..... People being critical of house with a huge amount of garage space? In AI of all the places???? What on earth is wrong with you people? Garage space and space for car parts are the FIRST thing I want in a house. Who the gently caress cares about ceiling height and how it looks on the outside?

The thing is though there is a difference between WOW NEW YORK CITY DOWNTOWN AND ALSO SAN FRANCISCO BAY AREA and "a house in Indiana somewhere, maybe". The balance is the important part. Also just wait for the economy to tank again and buy a house then it's so easy that's what we did

I got my house in the bust of 2008 and it is exactly where’ everyone wants to be in my town and I stole it. Small but huge Yard and has a workshop. I still rock a surface pro 2 last one ever made with the later i5 8gb ram and 512 ssd and as long as it doesn’t die I see no need to replace it. I even have the super rare music keyboard attachment.

It definitely looks like Grover had a hand in the design work here.

I'm gonna do what my dad did, and build a house with a full daylight basement that can be the garage. But it'll be set up so that part of it can be converted to living space. So I'll have a 1400 sq foot house on a 1400 sq foot garage, that can easily be converted to a 2300 sq foot house with a 500 sq foot garage. Should make it easy to re-sale.

That way if it burns down it doesn't stand much chance of getting my dwelling. Plus, lift height looks weird stuck on the side of a ranch.

I'm looking for a new place right now and my only deal-breaker requirement is a garage/shop with a 12' minimum ceiling. I don't care if the house is a RV on blocks or a single-room shack, but I need room for a hoist.

STR posted:I may take you up on a Firewire drive, and for sure on those speakers, if they'll work on this thing (everything i'm reading says only the G4 came with the required amp tho, and that you need a ~$50 adapter to use them on anything newer?). Poop, you're right. Last one to use them was the mirrored-door G4, which is hat I had them on. Pretty machine, that. Last of the plastic Power Macs. quote:I eventually managed to make a rescue disk with an old laptop HDD thanks to someone on Youtube - which is how I managed to get 10.5 on it. It was still really sluggish overall with 10.5 today, I figured something from the PO was being weird (it also had 3 users setup on it, but I couldn't switch users, because no passwords, and even though I got an admin account created, I couldn't delete the other users). I tried popping a spare SSD into the lower bay and re-running the setup "DVD" (aka laptop HDD with a DVD image), and once I repartitioned the SSD, it installed quickly as a fresh install. It's a totally different machine now. TenFourFox still brings it to its knees on anything ad-heavy, but that's definitely a RAM issue. And you ain't kidding on it being a hot motherfucker - it's several feet away, and there's a noticeable temperature difference near it. This is definitely NOT a machine that I would leave on 24/7 unless I had a monster HVAC unit and a full bank account. ... I used one as a file server for years. My office was comfy in winter. I don't remember if I ever had two of them in there, but I definitely had two Mac Pros, one a dual-dual Xeon, and the other a newer single 4-core Xeon. Those two put together were probably cooler than the G5. quote:From what I turned up on Google, these things are insanely picky about what SSDs they'll work with. I lucked out there; I nabbed a $25 Samsung 840 120GB off of SA-Mart awhile back that it works with. Everymac should be able to tell you which Superdrive it came with - single or dual-layer. It should be in the list somewhere. I honestly don't remember which it should be myself, offhand. quote:Hell, I may just do that with the HDD it came with - it's too small for me to really do anything else with it (250GB Maxtor). I used an old 500GB laptop drive that I normally keep a Windows 10 installer + malware/AV rescue images on (usually lives in a cheap external USB 3.0 housing). Use the machine ID from the System Information to get general specs on the machine. If the serial number is lookup is wrong, it may have been a Build To Order (BTO) machine, and Everymac is just giving you the stock specs, rather than what the custom order upgraded it to. For that matter, System Information should be able to tell you what the optical drive is, too. Easy way to find System Info is to select About this Mac from the Apple Menu, then click More Info. that should launch the System Information utility, with a LOT more detailed info on the whole machine.

Plus, lift height looks weird stuck on the side of a ranch. I think I'd prefer that myself. In the case of the house that Rhyno posted, delete that middle one-car, and raise the roof, possibly widen or lengthen, the second two-car into a shop. Two car attached can be, you know, just a garage for the dailies.

Already did, it's a Sony DW-U10A (4x Superdrive). Noted as "Apple Shipping Drive" in system information. Definitely not capable of burning dual layer, I'm not sure if it can read dual layer (google suggests most can, except for early ones.. and this is a pretty early DVD-RW). And the serial # from the system information utility is what I dropped into Everymac - so yeah, probably a BTO. The sticker inside the case identifies it as 250GB/1GB RAM, seems to be the only differences from what Supermac returns. edit: I was wrong about the drive in my PC, apparently it does +R DL. randomidiot fucked around with this message at 07:05 on Jul 15, 2018 |

But understand that if you build a new shop or addition on a property, in most cases it's going to cost more than it adds to the property value. Maybe a lot more. Unless you can buy a place at well under market price, there's a lot of value in finding a place with the structure(s) you want, already in place.

Fermented Tinal posted:The window regulator in my driver's door ground itself to death as I was getting home tonight, with rain on the way and the window fully down. So, followup to this. The regulator itself is fine, this is is the cause of death:  Look, it's a little star of "hahahahahaha gently caress you for thinking you could fix this."  Dealership wants to in fact, leave my anus gaping and bleeding. $557.39 to replace the window motor with an oem unit. All the aftermarket ones are apparently crap too. Hopefully I can get one from a local wrecker tomorrow or Tuesday. At least I got the window up and get to ride like this until Thursday when the acdelco motor I ordered arrives.

The analogy is of course that this exchange with the dealership would be non-consensual, like an oops-i-"forgot"-the-safeword kinda situation because that is how most interactions with dealerships go.

Best drugs advice I was ever given by a responsible adult, father of my best friend: "Take 'arf an see what 'appens" So I finally summed up the courage to talk to my wife about my depression. She was great about it, we identified a few triggers and the behaviours that help me pull out of it. I need to learn to accept that how I am when "I'm up and everything is great and I can do everything" is not normal just like "I'm down and everything is wrong and everyone is wrong and nothing feels good". Then my little brother dropped by and we talked therapy and coping mechanisms and trained behaviours, seems he's been doing so well at his therapy his therapist has signed him onto a course to teach it. Now I just need to change the oil in the Panda, I've been doing it every 6k, I'm now 8k overdue on the current change due to bad brains getting in the way. Talking feels good, even if it's hard and goes against all learned behaviours.
