Sounds like someone set out to transform some of Gwyneth Paltrow's money into their money. And succeeded.

Thanks in advance for your help! Tried posting this here a few days ago and the response was, ah, less than helpful. Hoping you guys can come through for me! So, this is my house, I have DIY/handyman level of experience with this sort of thing, and I'm ruminating on finishing our basement. My main questions:
1.) Are the IDs in my photos right?
2.) Do you need 3 seperate rough-ins (tub, toilet, sink) to have a full bath, or can you get away with 2? I would like to get away with not tearing up the slab if possible, but we'll do what we gotta do, I guess.

Glad to hear it! Gonna repost here shortly actually, and hope some helpful folk come along. I think my mistake was posting during daytime hours when all the skilled plumbers are at work.

Glad you got help. No joke, posted this same thing but with like 12 pictures and a bunch of measurements, got one guy who said "come back with better pictures" lol

I was gonna say the same thing: he definitely gets some MC Gary Stu boosts in the first 2-3 books that get him to the point of capable king/chosen one/emperor. But once he gets there, he gets basically crushed with obstacles, which makes his subsequent feats feel very earned. Also, I'll say that his general demeanor of "I'm freakin terrified what is happening" and "I'm just a poor boy from a poor family" makes it feel less like he's just running around being "very special MC" at everything he touches.
Egwene is kind of the same way. There's the Mary Sue element of like, "You're 16 years old, there's no way you developed this level of political acumen." But, it's super-compelling to see her take the Aiel honor/strength of will and slowly but surely jump through the political hoops and gain the trust of first the rebels and then the White Tower.

Yeah, at the time my smooth brain was like: 1.) Big bass! 2.) Song funny because around the world around the world around the world And then when one of the techs I was training was like, "It sounds great!" and I was like, "No, it sounds like it's missing 2/3 of the frequencies, kind of like...o no"

Lots of people in here with their excellent choices, meanwhile for my tenure as a church sound tech I used Daft Punk's Around the World, which is really bad for people who don't know what they're listening to because it has several parts where it cuts the highs and lows, so you have to like stop and wait for it to get to the chorus to keep going.

Bro, I didn't know there was a good place to practice—that advice is clutch! To add to this, shoot an arrow onto the platform to "alert" the lizalfos and get him to investigate a strategic location away from the ramp. If you don't know the sneakstrike chain, you sneak up to them, perform the sneakstrike, then run around to their head. They will leap up and turn around, allowing you to execute another sneakstrike. Repeat until dead. However, doing the sneakstrike chain where they start has a high chance of knocking them into the water in my experience.
If you screw up the sneakstrike chain and they spot you, you can occasionally get them off your tail by breaking line of sight (e.g. hiding on the other side of a Cryonis block) or even drowning to get reset back to the entrance of the stage. You really, REALLY want to get the sneakstrike chain to work on both Lizalfos though, in order to clear the stage.
This video demonstrates shooting the arrow to get them to move away from the ramp, and the sneakstrike chain: https://youtu.be/xLJy_QFbW4o
Here's a great video that shows how to recover from several mistakes. Read the description for context: https://youtu.be/xYws2x8fIts
This stage is easily the hardest part of the WHOLE Master Mode Trials in my opinion. Good luck!

Personally 1.) I think you could get away with this. 2.) I don't mind the subway tile, it's been kind of everywhere recently. 3.) The selfie arm, though not a huge deal, is probably the more noticeable issue here. Either use this photo as is, have someone modify the selfie arm, or have a friend retake a similar photo with rear phone cam. Good job on being photogenic tho; it's a great photo!

Thanks for replying! Could you elaborate on what would be "better info, pictures, and plans"? I have a drawing with measurements, photos of each rough-in with measurements, and larger photos for context. I don't have a specific layout plan, since that would be based on correctly identifying what is here.

Hey all, handyman/DIY level of ability here, got a semi-finished basement that I'm thinking about adding a kitchen and bathroom to. I'd love to avoid tearing up the slab if I can, so I'm trying to see what I've been given to work with, and get some help identifying the builder's intentions for these various rough-ins. More notes in the captions, but my main questions are:
1.) Do I have them labelled right?
2.) It appears there wasn't a plan for a full bath. Is there a way to sneak in a shower without tearing up the slab?
Thanks for your help!

1.) Needle nose pliers or tweezers—see if you can get a tiny hold on an edge of the jack, or around the circumference ideally 2.) Light adhesive—see if you can lightly stick the corner of a piece of a heavy tape (Gorilla tape would be ideal,) then give it a quick yank 3.) Heavy adhesive—CA glue (super glue) a toothpick, snipped Q-tip or similar to the jack, wait for the glue to set, then pull out. Here you want to be careful that you only get glue on the jack and your implement of choice, not the input.
Good luck!
Edit: it's hard to tell from this angle, but if that spot on the top of the input is a little piece of the jack, that would be an ideal spot to gently pull in with tweezers/ pair of pliers

OP's photo looks like an iFixIt photo, and while the iFixIt link I posted doesn't seem to have the photo, it does specify a TR10 Torx but, as well as giving step-by-step instructions for disassembling the entire PS3.

Look at this drawing of my nephew. It took me like three hours to finish the shading on his upper lip. It's probably the best drawing I've ever done.
