The reason I know a bit about this is the neighbours on either side have caused issues with industrial noise. One was a crappy AC unit too close to our house and the other one is a hot tub that doesn't seem to be working right close to the fence line. I've looked into acoustic panels to put...

I think the styrofoam in the first video is just styrofoam insulation panels but you should probably read about what kind of density is best because you can get very dense styrofoam that would be a specialty product and that might work best for noise deadening. Those other panels/blankets look...

There's a few videos about. This guy used styrofoam panels and got a 20 decibel reduction. Acoustic curtains/blankets too Industrial Noise Control - Stop Your Industrial Noise! https://www.soundproofcow.com/best-soundproof-materials-outdoor-installations/

Breathing shouldn't be an issue. The wall would be like one of those walls that are put between busy highways and houses so it doesn't have to be right on top of the generator. You just want to reflect or deaden sound from it. It needs to be tall enough to prevent noise leaking over the top...

Putting it behind a sound deadening wall will deflect most sound away from where you can hear it now. That's probably the easiest and cheapest way. A friend of mine has an enormous fancy pool pump/purifier system behind a wall like this and in the pool it's fine with hardly any noise, behind...

That gun above has barrel weights too I think.

I got upset when a brass mid bead fell off my Beretta. That was a .25c part plus about 0.0001c worth of thread lock.

This just arrived in my mailbox (email) https://www.rangeviewsports.ca/product/beretta-dt11-black-dlc-pro-sporting-shotgun-with-adjustable-tsk-stock/ 23k $. But, only in 30”.

So one more tip specifically for things like Lenovo. If you have any university/college nearby there's a chance that they have a preferred computer supplier with a contact. When I contact our Lenovo guy he can get me any machine at a substantial discount to what's advertised. Depending on how...

I'm still trying to figure out simple image manipulation in terms of just opening some photos to edit. On a windows machine I find the damn file and open it. On a Mac it's like “I'm sorry Dave I can't let you do that” (Space Odyssey reference, I'm not a Dave). It has to be opened from the...

I get a Lenovo thinkpad whenever I need a windows machine. I have a Lenovo X1 thing right now. That's more for portability and it’s way overpowered for what I normally use it for but it's the company product line that's impressive and the build quality of the upper tier machines. For what you...

Sorry I see what you mean. I had my details saved so that when I go to the site I'm logged in with my credentials. I didn't sign out then in again. I tried clearing my cache but that didn’t work either.

I know it doesn't make sense but it's the only thing that worked. Maybe my old username works fine now but I can't be bothered to switch back and forward to check. Before the site just didn’t load properly for my old login. There's some weird filter somewhere that is catching random people it...

I ended up having to register a new username.

The Amateur with Rami Malek was pretty good. He's a great actor and the story isn't too bad for a reasonably standard revenge plot.

They are using more unmanned drones for this now apparently.

Had it done when we had eavestroughs replaced so not sure of the brand. Definitely recommend it though. We have a pine tree right next to one roof and before this they would clog all the time. I saw some in Costco a while back that looked identical and also quite cheap.

I see pine needles. Ours would clog every year and then we had the protectors put on. Haven’t needed to clean them for a few seasons now.

I didn't even know that was an option. I'll take a look. The issue is the garage is storage, no room to swing a cat so it's not used as a workshop often.

So, the next project after this then is probably that mini-split. It's either that or heated floors in that bedroom but that doesn't help with cooling in the summer of course. Price wise I was quite surprised that a small unit wasn't too pricey. A 9000 BTU combined ac and heat pump unit is...
