I lol’ed

I found a video where they put small holes in the varnish with a knife, then let it sit wet for a couple of hours, then steam it through a towel, and it worked pretty well on a test dent!

Thanks for putting me on this path, I looked up a video where they put small holes in the varnish, wet it for a couple of hours, then steam it through a cloth, and it worked pretty well on a test dent! I’ll wait and see how it looks tomorrow after drying out and maybe move on to the rest!

You might have helped me save a lot of money!

I’ll be damned, it actually worked pretty well on the test dent for now, apparently! I’ll see how it looks after drying out tomorrow, and do it for the rest then!

Thanks for the warning, I respect that - but this video seems pretty straightforward, I’m about to try it on one of those dents:

Thanks for that expert advice - let’s consider the scenario where I don’t know what I’m doing, and I just want to avoid my landlord deducting too much from the deposit when I move out, what would you recommend?

I would agree, but I’m afraid my landlord will look under that rug at some point

That sounds like a fun thing to improvise, thanks, I’ll try it!

I’m renting a flat 🙈 and the story would be the one of my neglect, and me having to pay off the landlord, it’s not my favorite one

I tried letting some water sit for some hours in one dent, to see if the wood would expand - but nothing happened. I guess that would rule out steam, unless I remove the varnish in the dents first?

Funnily enough he doesn’t even have a physics degree. He has been wrongly claiming that forever, and one joke is that’s one reason he bought Twitter, because the guys there wouldn’t shut up about that

Is this the syndrome that lemmy users have?

You’re not helping, but I sympathize (that AAF flashback is what got me unto this trail - and I got to AAF through this new Bam Margera doc that dropped on YouTube two weeks ago, maybe that will give you even more flashbacks)

Itsa-me, fascismo!

Yeah, good riddance

Bluetooth dongle by Asus, doesn’t work properly without their own driver :/

What do you do though when you need to compile a driver for some hardware you have and install it manually on Bazzite? Recently had that case, and switched to Mint because of it.

Pfft, I would key her the hexdump of the binary via morse code

Just finally switched my gaming PC to Linux mint. It works flawlessly. I can even re-use the steam game files I downloaded on Windows. Never going back.
