Two months to find a new rental with pets. Should we lie about them?

Hi all,

Our landlord wants to sell the house and we got a notice to vacate in 2 months because of a buyer. The buyer backed out but they don't want to revoke the note and we have now 2 months to find a new home still.

We are worried to not find anything because we have two cats. We are great tenants with high income and no children and we have been praised so far for how well we treat the property we are in. Should we just lie about our cats and tell them one month in that we adopted some?

First Mesh

Hi all,

I own an Asus RT-AX56U which sits in our garage in front of a brick wall. The house is on the "longer side". When you walk along the walkway you will come across the office with my gaming PC with an wifi antenna. Further down the hall you will come past the kitchen into the living room where my Nvidia Shield sits. Overall that's maybe ~10-15 meters from the router to the Shield with my gaming PC (and many walls and appliances) between them.

I wanteded to set up streaming Steam games from my PC to the shield and I already installed Apollo and Artemis, but the connection is pretty bad. I was thinking to maybe give the "AI"Mesh from Asus a chance but I don't know what I would need to get for that.

Do I need a similarly equipped router? Maybe even a better one? Or are there smaller low-spec devices that are dedicated for the mesh feature that I can plug in that would do the job? Does it only need a power connection or does it need another ethernet connection again?

I know ethernet would be better, but I'm renting and the cabling would have to go across the rooms over a long distance so I'm stuck with wireless.

Wedding Suit Timeline?

Hi all,

I have my wedding party on the weekend of 03/10 and I'm shopping around for a suit at the moment.

I hear a while back that it takes roughly two months so that's why I'm starting to look now but I do see longer times for it now while browsing..

I'm not looking for a custom suit. I'm clearly not an expert.

Did I just wait too long and have not enough time anymore?

Should I jailbreak my Kindle Voyage?

Hi all,

I recently got back into reading and got out my old Kindle again just before Amazon announced they’d be discontinuing support for older models. I’m generally trying to move away from Amazon (and big corporations in general for that matter).

Is jailbreaking worth it or even working on a Kindle Voyage (5.13.6)? I’m a bit hesitant, thinking about the whole "never change a running system" thing, even though I’m usually quite comfortable with techy stuff (I’ve jailbroken my Nintendo 3DS before, for example).

Anyone experience with AMD and SteamOS

Hi all,

I want to make one maybe last build before they make it actual impossible to own your own PC and I would like to commit to SteamOS with the Steam Frame coming up. I might also be idealistic but fuck Nvidia as a company.

Probably a bit of a long shot but did anyone try VR with a SteamOS machine and AMD hardware?

If someone made a build like that already. What is your experience with it for PCVR?

Question about Aussie House Sitters

Hi all,

We are going to have a house sitter for the first time via Aussie House Sitters.

We just wanted to ask some people here who might have experience with it what you think is good for giving them a nice start. Do you leave them some money? Food?

We just want to give them a nice start but also not skip on things that are usually done by the hosts :)

Did I screw my playthrough?

Hi all,

I'm currently on my first play through and got to the point where I can finally use Titan Blood on weapons. I didn't really vibe with any of the upgrades and read somewhere that upgrading one thing several times is better than spreading it out so I put all my Titan Blood into the crit chance of the bow because it was the weapon I got the furthest with and enjoyed the most.

Some time later I read that I could have unlocked new forms of the weapon if I would have unlocked 5 different aspects (a new form of the spear first?). This has not happened now in several hours of gameplay after I upgraded the bow, eventhough I technically did 5 upgrades with the Titan Blood. Do I have to wait now until I unlocked 5 different aspects? I barly get hands on any Titan Blood anymore.

I'm yet to defeat the final boss btw, i get to the second phase quite regularly though.

Hybrid Builds Valid?

Hi all,

as an occasional Senna enjoyer I wanted to ask the opinion of the mains :)

Most of the time the builds I find go either damage or enchanter but I currently really enjoy her with an somewhat hybrid build.

I really like going BC -> Helia and from there really depending on the comp, but third item i usually go with Statikk which helps applying BC on their whole team and gives both AD and AP.

Helia just feels so good on her since she has the stacks full all the time, but going full enchanter I feel like I was always something missing.

Renting: Would it be hard to upgrade the thermostat to one with a timer? Or is this a job for a sparky?

Hi all,

with winter on the doorstep I'm sick of waking up to 11°C in the house due to terrible insulation. Would it be difficult to get the thermostat changed to one with a timer so the heater could in the morning before getting up?

We are renting and would run it past our landlord of course.

Hi all,

I know there are a lot of vacation posts but I just want to make sure that we really are okay. My wife and I adopted two kittens (brothers) two months ago and we are about to visit my family for three weeks in a month. I think we are pretty well prepared for the trip... My wife's parents will come over every day to give them dinner, clean the litter and change their water. Every now and then they will stay for a movie to give them some company. For the mornings we bought an automatic cat feeder and we adjust them to it and dry food at the moment. I think we are well prepared with this but we are worried how they will take it.

Our boys are ~5 months old by the time we leave. They cuddle and play with each other a lot and generally get along really well. We honestly don't have have much work with them because they generally are really good and don't get into much trouble. We left them alone for work a couple of hours before and they are chill when we get home, they maybe lift their heads when they were sleeping or are near the door because they heard something, but they don't give the impression they have seperation anxiety with the way they react when we get home. We never left them alone over night though... They are both very attached to my wife, especially Sam who wants to sit and sleep on her pretty much all the time. They both also sleep in our bed and cuddle pretty much all night with us. And that's the part that makes us worried. We don't want them to be anxious or to change in their personalities because we left them alone for so long. Should we be worried how it might affect them?
