Most Taco Bell items are surprisingly healthy/balanced too though. Like, other than some of the crazier novelty items, pretty much everything on the menu is just protein and veggies wrapped in a tortilla. The bean and rice burrito has some of the best macros of any fast food item, and as a bonus, it’s still relatively cheap, especially compared to Chik fil a.
Most of the frontend apps let you browse things unauthenticated as far as I know. You can’t post/comment/vote without being signed up though, of course. You can also visit an instance’s url directly in the browser to look at things unauthenticated. So for your home instance, you’d just go to “https://lemmy.world/” in your browser. For my home instance, you’d go to “https://sh.itjust.works/” in a browser. Etc for the various other instances out there.
Appreciate all the advice! To address the subfloor comment on the other post lol, I did end up pulling up all the self leveler and the original slab. IDK what the flippers did to that floor, but after I got the self leveler off I was able to pull up the slab with my bare hands in chunks, and it was basically gravel in places. I figured that wasn’t a great base for tile, so me and a friend pulled it all up in a couple hours (which was way less time than I thought it would take).
The joists underneath were in great shape though (hell yeah old growth Douglas fir), except for the one near the tub drain that 1. the flippers cut a 12-inch section out of for some reason and 2. had some water damage from their shoddy tub drain install. I sistered all the joists with 2x10s just to be safe though, and also to help level things out. I put blocking in where the clawfoot tub is gonna go, and am currently in the process of putting down 3/4" plywood for the subfloor. Next will be ditra on the floor, and kerdi board on the walls.
As for the plumbing, I think I’ll take your suggestion (and the suggestions of some of the others that have commented) and replace the stuff that’s looking real crusty while the wall is open. I have pretty good access to all that plumbing from the basement, so I don’t think I’ll have to deal with any awkward angles that risk burning the house down lol. And I’m gonna go ahead and reconfigure the tub supplies to come up through the floor. It does look much nicer, and the shower/faucet kit we got for the tub includes the floor mounted supplies, so it’d be a waste not to use them.
Internet searches that have turned up a multitude of other thirty year plumbing veterans scorning CPVC. I’m genuinely interested if you have reasons you like CPVC over the other options.
I see where both of you guys are coming from for sure, but I just wanna make sure I’m covering my bases. If there’s anything there that looks like it’s on its last legs, I wanna get that taken care of while the wall is still open. Some of that blue/green corrosion around the joints looks scary to me, but I don’t have much (any 😅) experience with copper plumbing, so I can’t say for sure.
Lol I think you’re in a very select crowd of people that advocates for CPVC. I hadn’t considered it because it was pretty regularly recommended against in all the research I’ve done so far
Kinda getting into cutting off your nose to spite your face territory though, no? Like, if I take a free tool created by a fascist, then use it to fight against fascism, aren’t I now hurting the fascist’s cause? I fail to see how that’s helping them succeed, at least at being a fascist, which I think we can agree is the more important attribute to care about here.
They could do so much with that concept too. Like imagine the little picnics you could do out in the wild zones in sword and shield, except that’s just every time you go back and visit Oak’s lab. It could give you way more incentive to come back to your home town

The mortar bed and plywood are sitting on concrete?
No, they’re both supported by the floor joists, which might be sitting on a poured concrete wall that runs underneath the bathroom. It’s a little hard to see exactly what’s going on under the floor, visibility isn’t great under the bathroom from the basement. Filling in the plywood section with mortar would require building out some sort of form to keep it from running into the basement.
The mortar seems pretty robust. The only way I’d be able to get it out would probably be the rotary hammer or a big sledge hammer or something. Ideally I’d like to just put SLC down as-is, I just want to make sure the cracks and divots won’t cause any problems with that. The floor transitions to hardwood, and currently the bathroom subfloor sits about a 1/2" lower than the hardwood, so I’m hoping that’s enough to fit a layer of SLC, ditra, and tile. I would like it to be flush, but I’m not super concerned if the bathroom floor ends up a tad taller.
I appreciate the feedback though, thank you!
I’ve been using Pop!_OS for gaming for a couple years now and it’s been great. It’s Ubuntu-derived like Mint, and I haven’t had much difficulty troubleshooting it, since a lot of the stuff on Ubuntu/Mint forums will work for Pop.

What do you mean? Those are just my programming socks
Eh, that’s basically the exact definition of news actually lmao
No it isn’t, that’s the economic reality. Do you think billionaires make that much because of some outrageously high salary or hourly wage? Because that ain’t it. They make their money by having money.
I think you’re confusing flatpaks with snaps
Android is the way it is because Google is close sourcing more and more of what makes Android useful as a mobile OS. It would be infinitely harder for some megacorp to do the same thing for a desktop OS.
Not historically, no, which is part of the reason why English’s spelling “rules” are the way they are
Right? Like “th” is one of the least ambiguous, most consistent letter groupings in English, a new letter for it doesn’t solve anything, and using the thorn character is actively worse for people with dyslexia. Let’s come up with a way to disambiguate soft-c vs. hard-c sounds instead, or make “ei”/“ie” more consistent.
So what you’re saying is that penis-havers have a rifled urethra, which contributes to higher muzzle velocity and accuracy, as well as the spiral shape of the stream?
