It's increasing. It's up to about 12 hours. I've officially migrated off of kbin for now. I'm sure it's started to throw errors to other instances. Last time it did that we got temporarily defederated.

Yeah, this isn't framing per his link. That OSB is the interior of the structural wall and he's just building out with 6x6 cm (what we'd think of as 2x2 inch) to hang his (likely 1/4" equivalent) drywall and provide electrical service.

I think it just depends on how he's attaching it. If it's going into the top and sill plates behind the OSB, there's not really much of a chance of it going anywhere.

roguetrick ,

No, I was actually translating it for the American construction folks. What you're doing is actually how we cover up plaster walls on remodels. It's just not something I've ever dealt with when I was a construction supply salesperson.

roguetrick ,

The sill plate is actually behind the OSB and looks thicker than anything we use. I don't honestly know if there's studs back there too, but I'd imagine so. I really don't know how that wall is constructed.

roguetrick ,

All of the OSB is the inside of the already constructed wall. It's interior fascia, essentially, with insulation behind it.

roguetrick ,

Yeah, folks are having a hard time wrapping their head around how it structurally works but it obviously does since they're building housing developments with it. The picture just shows the sill plate and top plate (the two thick pieces of wood on the top and bottom of the wall behind the OSB[what we call the plywood on the inside]) with insulation sandwiched between, but there has to be lengths of wood going from those to hold them together (which we call studs). They're mistakenly thinking that your 6x6 cm pieces of wood are those studs.

roguetrick ,

So are the 6x6s attaching just into the plywood or are they going into something behind the plywood? Overall it sounds fine what he told you to do, but what they're attaching to and how you do what we call "blocking" to secure them is how you determine if you can hang cabinets.

Edit: Per your additional information, what you're doing is fine but I'd ask him specifically about where you want to hang cabinets because you'd need to make more consideration. They put a lot more strain than thin drywall to the fasteners that are holding them up.

roguetrick ,

Yeah, that's essentially fine. You likely can hang cabinets off of them, but I'm not a cabinet installer or a framer. I'm a nurse that used to sell building supplies. You should ask him if you need more reinforcement for your cabinets. For your drywall everything's fine.

My suggestion is a oral administration etoh at this point, then.

Behind the green board, behind the OSB, there is a very thick top plate that those beams are sitting on and based on what the OP said to me, that is then framed down to a sill plate also behind the OSB. Nothing on the outside of the OSB is structural and he's actually screwing those 6x6 cm boards into what's behind the OSB. They're using the OSB as a vapor barrier instead of faced insulation like we do and also protecting the studs with that vapor barrier from the interior of the house.

Edit: Truth is, what's funny about OP's wall and the response it's getting is that it's better constructed than most American buildings you could find. We don't tend to put as big a gap between the vapor barrier and the interior heated space and we don't tend to include the studs as protected by that vapor barrier. When we do we use plastic sheeting, not OSB, because that's too expensive. I'd imagine the R value on his insulation is also much higher than ours.

Why are we so concerned with oxygen production yet we never hear about nitrogen production, though we actually need 78% nitrogen vs 21% oxygen to survive?

Excess oxygen is actually harmful to humans, but all the climate warnings are about losing oxygen, not nitrogen edit: but when we look for habitable planets, our focus is ‘oxygen rich atmosphere’, not ‘nitrogen rich’, and in medical settings, we’re always concerned about low oxygen, not nitrogen....

It would work in the sense that you could breathe it. It would not work in the sense that the gravity of a planet that actually holds a helium atmosphere (as opposed to it flying off into space) would be uncomfortable.

I highly doubt any language is more correlated with authoritarianism, particularly the English language. There is a cultural aspect to collective action over individualism, but I think authoritarianism is a base human personality trait.

Gold Bar resident says clerk’s shirt is ‘crossing a line’ as some feel unsafe in grocery store ( www.kiro7.com )

GOLD BAR, Wash. — In Snohomish County, some residents told KIRO 7 they feel unsafe going to their local grocery store. Over the weekend, controversial photos of a cashier at Gold Bar Family Grocer appeared on social media. The photos show a man with a KKK shirt and a loaded holster checking out customers....

They getting rushed by boars in the checkout line or something?

Really missed out on small ball big net badminton play.

Yeah, you prove the field exists by exciting it and making it produce quanta, kind of like photons being the quanta of the EM field being excited.

A general strike would result in the fall of the federal government. Secondary action is illegal because it's so powerful. This is an interesting way to get around that, with every contract just happening to align with the other.

roguetrick ,

You're well on you way to getting banned from every community in the fediverse anyway so I wouldn't worry about it.

Hippodromic oath should be first, wear your color. The hippodrome pretty much ran the politics of the empire.

We like you starmets, we just don't like you enough to have you know our address or meet you unaccompanied. We like you from a distance.

roguetrick ,

I don't like anyone enough to do that.

I'm sure he's self aware enough to know he doesn't deserve it. I think there's very few people that believe that there exists a meritocratic place in this earth and Zuck doesn't strike me as the type to believe he was chosen by God.

Wannabe brown shirts LARPing like they're good for anything but terrorism. They'd be the first to be purged. Nobody competent works for free

Chesebro should stop taking his own legal advice. It's how he got where he is now. Nobody sane pushes for a speedy trial while on bail.

You want me to wear my swim trunks or get a bikini.. Warning before your answer: only one body type has the bouyancy to pull it off.

What's cute is this "display of weakness" will eat at him until he calls a fox news morning show and emails them the "report." Everyone knew he'd back down, but he also has no impulse control and will do it anyway

Be wary of spiteful Reddit users ( kbin.social )

In the past week and a half, I've noticed Reddit behaviors starting to try and poison all of the places that people are taking refuge in to get away from the toxicity, myself included. They've started to DDoS Lemmy for a while, which is a Reddit thing to do and what they're notorious of doing whenever they feel they don't like...

roguetrick ,

So tell us more about these toxic users you encounter.
