Is anyone seriously exploring alternatives to VMware?
 in  r/sysadmin  Dec 31 '23

All prior companies I’ve worked at were VMware centered for virtualization and backups. The new company I’m with uses Xen for all virtualization. 1000s of VMs with no issues. I’m not on the infrastructure side to know exactly how they are managed, but it’s been 3 years and we have never had any issues with building of managing VMs with xen and xen orchestra.

Edit: fixing autocorrect

Clawhammer BIAB System?

You could also convert the plug to your local wiring to utilize the 240v system. 120v is fine the times it takes to reach mash and boil temps will take longer

Foaming issues with the squarekeg, looking for solutions
 in  r/Homebrewing  Nov 21 '23

Get a picnic tap 2.0 typically foam is caused from a hot tap, or not enough if a back pressure from beer coming out of keg. I’ve used these at tons of beer festivals and have had no foaming while others have had foaming.

Questions on slab for detached garage
 in  r/Concrete  Nov 05 '23

That is a good point. He said he can pick up the rebar and give me the ticket to reimburse him. Though his quote says it includes labor, concrete and pumping.

Homeowner With A Question Questions on slab for detached garage

1 Upvotes

Hey all, loaded and long winded question here.

I’m looking to have a slab poured for a detached garage. Due to my city requirements I had to have architects draw up plans for a wood framed building as they wouldn’t allow a metal building. The building will be 18’x20’

Architects came back with footers at 18”x16” 4” thick for remaining slab, 3 #5 rebar in footers, two on the bottom, one in the outer edge. What’s kind of odd from what I’ve been told by contractors is they called for 3lb/ cubic yd of fiber mesh. I’m being told this is way more than any commercial building would be, and this wouldn’t allow for a flat finish as the fibers would be sticking out everywhere. Does this seem excessive?

I’ve already pulled permits for the job and have everything ready to go but just need to narrow down pricing.

As for pricing, I have a couple coming in at $6700 for scraping land of grass that was previously cleared, digging footers, all prep work, and poring and finishing slab. These are licensed and insured guys.

However I’ve gotten quotes from guys who aren’t licensed who say they can do it for $3800. That’s all prep work and clearing. Plus form and finish. I would just need to buy rebar. Is there that much of a difference between the two that would make for almost a $3000 difference.

Aside from concrete being concrete. Is there any reason why I shouldn’t go with the lower priced quote? I’m sure the differences would be soil compaction and such from the bigger guys. But the $3000 will almost cover the materials to finish the garage.

Large format tile in shower floor
 in  r/Tile  Oct 27 '23

The mosaic has some good grip the extra surface area from the grout helps quite a bit. If you do a 12x24 for the floor, I’d suggest something with some texture not a polished tile. Also Ive heard marble isn’t the best choice for floor tiles.

For waterproofing and backer board, I did hardie backer and schluter, the hardie sucked a ton of water out of the thinset and made it more of a pain to install, even with soaking it before applying it. I think next time I’d do durock, thinset the joints, then use redguard for waterproofing.

Other than that. Double check to make sure your walls are plumb and use self leveling clips for the 12x24 tiles. Don’t forget to back butter the tiles.

I ended up using these. Found the process of trying to do an envelope cut with a foam pan a bit more of a hassle. I think if it used floor mud to make a pan, it would have been a bit better.

They look great though!

Is a keg and kegerator worth it SOLELY for sparkling water?
 in  r/Homebrewing  Oct 19 '23

I don’t understand how this works, is the ball lock on the lid for the water in or out? I’m assuming in since the keg would need to be upside down for it to work as a water out

Hey all,

Is there a better way to plumb this other than what’s pictured? The pipe coming out of the wall is a 2”. Not sure if any other way to attach the studor so I can get the 1.5” for p-trap. Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Roots under the toilet, flooring guy refuses to proceed
 in  r/Plumbing  Jun 27 '23

It’s possible it followed the main line and came up between the pipe and slab in search of water. Had this happen to me when redoing flooring. Root came up the 4” line leading to the septic, through a hole in the flange, then down the pipe back out to the septic tank. Luckily there was no damage to drain system. Just an extremely long root system to pull out. My plumber also placed some type of crystals around the drain that would kill any roots that came up. It was recommended by a arborist he knows.

EDIT: Spelling.

Can I just put some mortal in this small hole?
 in  r/HomeMaintenance  May 24 '23

No, but window cleaner without ammonia. Or rubbing alcohol in a spray bottle will help silicon. Spray on before removing excess.
