Any home built by DR Horton or DSLD (American contractors) are like this.

The homes look fine, but nothing is "bubble level". I had my attic ladder fall out of the ceiling due to some overweight things (and people) using it a lot to save things from some flood waters. We re-installed a new ladder, and made it "bubble level" which makes it now off from the ceiling itself. Now I'm working on filling the gaps between the ceiling and ladder frame in certain areas.

If you're hanging some pictures, eye level is fine. If you're doing anything else, please use a bubble.

Welcome to the internet, where one thing you do not speak against is Porn or it's addictive characteristics.

Also, it seems like you kept trying after having your comment deleted. Mods don't like people attempting to spam the same thing. If your message is removed, take the message and move on, unless you feel like getting blocked like this. Unlike Reddit, there is no oversight on mods here. You can push it up the chain, but you might run into the mod of the community being the mod of the instance as well.

It's a rivet, and it can be drilled out, but replacing it with an equivalent joint is going to be difficult. if you don't use the same material. This looks like a beach chair or some kind of outdoor thing. You might be okay replacing it with something like this: https://www.amazon.com/YORANYO-Assorted-M5-Decorate-Bookbinding/dp/B0B7WMQM97

You may be able to go to a local hardware store and find similar, but in lower quantity and maybe something not as specified for leathercraft/book binding. If you do go that route, put some loctite in the thread so you don't unscrew yourself accidentally and lose one or more.

I know it's a shitpost. I still had to look it up. Honestly couldn't remember when this happened.

We're supposed to just ignore that these suckers are $89? Are you at a college bookstore?

I know that can't be USD, but still. Holy crap that seems so high for something that may be an actual value of around $1.50USD if not less. What magical land are you in where these can be procured?

There are extensions that make those kinds of thing disappear permantly. Life has been hood since enabling that.

What is this AI built garbage?

[–] somewhiteguy 1 points 6 months ago

Very dumb considering a good chunk of their AI tools that "help" with coding is built on things that are in Github. So, having a lot of people, and up-and-coming coders, move to something else is bad for business. AI inbreeding is going to become an issue sooner.

Growing up, the one I loved as a kid was DragonHeart. It didn't age as well as I thought, but fun movie nonetheless.

I don't know how you even country without arbitrary units based on a dead monarch's perceptions of themselves and the world around them.

Good luck with your skinny Nascars though.
