A Timeline of Donald Trump's Creepiness While He Owned Miss Universe
  • Is there a collection of all the audio tapes mentioned? I've been looking but can't find some of them. The TMZ one for example from 2009 is a dead link and I can't find any actual recording of it.

    Backyard structure fix up
  • I had to take down a horrible staircase one of the previous owners stuck in which was put in seemingly before sheet rock so the sheet rock was fitted to the stairs which lead to holes in the sheet rock. The one I took the picture out of is part of that.

    What do you mean by horizontal and avoiding "thermal bridging" if you have any diagram that could possibly help I would appreciate it. I figure if I am going to fix up the structure I might as well try to fix any moisture issues and sheet rock isn't too expensive... Most likely it will be a longer project that I slowly work on the next couple months if I decide to go further than I already have.

  • Here is another picture showing the insulation and how it connects to the grate that I showed in one of the original pictures. I don't see any rot or anything like that but it's also never had heat running in it before, which I assume would make things worse. The fact it leads straight to where the insulation with no gap or anything feels all kinds of wrong...   Would something like baffles be helpful? I could potentially push them behind the insulation to open a gap between the roof deck and insulation.

  • Would your recommendation change if I am trying to change it into more of an office/work space. I own a small business and I hope to use the barn/shed as the main work area, it will have things like a laser engraver, computer, various materials used to engrave etc.

    I am not doubting your recommendation or anything like that, I am just trying to get a full understanding of the situation and possible consequences or possible cheaper fixes. For example, would something like taking the sheetrock down (see what is behind it) and possibly add some vapor barriers with a thin airgap between the roof and the conditioned space. I guess similar to firring strips?

    I guess I was hoping there might be a cheaper alternative to replacing the roof but would still reduce the risk of rot or condensation inside. I guess I could potentially seal up loft making it an unconditioned space and only accessible from the external door in the gable (which is visible in one of the pics) as a fall back if it really concerns me.

  • I live in Washington State. Yeah I don't know if it was like this originally or if the previous owners just stuck the netting on there to stop animals from getting in.

    You're right that there isn't really any space between the ceiling and roof. The venting is the main thing I'm concerned about and moisture. I think things are already a bit wet to begin with because of the trees, moss, and pine needles that like piling up. Maybe I'll try to take a closer look behind the sheet rock and see what is going on.

    Thanks for the input and recommendation. There are 2 skylights at the eve and a door which you can see in one of the pics. If you think that would make any difference with anything.

  • Backyard structure fix up

    I have a small barn like structure on the back of my property that I have started fixing up. Previous owners have done stuff to it as well and I came across this part in the loft. As can be seen in the pictures this light shining through into the inside from the soffit/facia, if that's what it would be in this scenario.

    What I am wondering is, is it okay to seal that up? From the other side of the structure, it looks like they are mostly boarded up. I want to try to keep the place at a somewhat decent temperature so I would like to seal it up with some foam to keep spiders and bugs out.

    Let me know if you need any more info or pictures. Also I do know about the moss on one side of the roof, that side doesn't get much sun and I live in a wet climate and it has like 3 large trees surrounding it.

    Light shining through from the next picture. !

  • It looks like it has been updated unless I am not reading it correctly.

    https://github.com/dani-garcia/vaultwarden/releases/tag/1.30.0

    "Added passkey support, allowing the browser extensions to store and use your passkeys, make sure the extension is updated to version 2023.10.0 or newer for passkey support."

    Leaks confirm low takeup for Windows 11
  • I have tried but have found dual booting frustrating. I need to find a setup that allows me to use it with all my work stuff.

    I have been interested in Linux Mint as a starter into Linux. However I think I need a separate computer for work and another for home use. Then on top of that still have dual boot for the few things that don't work on linux. Just feels like a mess.

    Overall though I 100% wish I could do Linux.

  • Erpnext looks interesting and looks like it has a ton of what anyone could need. Though looks like the setup is a little more confusing.

  • Does Firefly allow double entry accounting style? I would definitely try to keep the way I keep track of things in a manner that is easily transferable to an account if things pick up or I need help with something.

  • It looks interesting and I like the idea of it being simple human readable text. Though it would be nice to have it built into the same self-host stack I run with everything else. I will check it out more in depth though for sure.

  • I have looked into GNUCash in the past and there is definitely a learning curve so trying to see if there is anything else that may be a little more towards what I want.

    It would be nice to be able to access from a browser, it can make things a little easier. Preferably looking for something I can kick up a docker container or something simple so I can easily back up the data if need be and it can fit into my current self hosted stack.

  • I own a small business and am currently using quickbooks, however I don't really make enough to justify the price I am paying for it. I did have a deal for roughly 3 months which made it cheap, however the price has gone up now.

    I was wondering if anyone knows of any self hosted applications that support business like tracking. Would something like firefly work for this? I am not really needing budgeting.

    Skylight Replacement
  • I will check them out and see what they say. Thanks!

    edit I got a reply stating the following "Our skylights do not have the downward turned flange, just a flat flange.".

  • Skylight Replacement

    I had a skylight in a small barn I have on my property which had a branch go through one of the plastic bubble like skylights. I have been trying to find a replacement for it but can't find any that match.

    It doesn't need to match the old one but everything I find is flat around the edges or pre-flashed. Anyone happen to know the name of what was previously on there where it has sides on it too?

    Here is a picture of the skylight hole itself. The dimensions are Inner - 21 inch 3/4 x 21 inch 3/4 Outer - 26 inch 1/8 x 26 inch 1/8 ! !

    I found this after I posted, so I guess it is called Dome over Frame but can't seem to find any online. !
