Well, I don't know about Or but we got ourselves a heat wave here in the Ca central valley. 103 today and tomorrow. You might get that snow melt you wanted.Quote:

Snow is gone, and tomorrow, I will be as well. Off to walk for a few hundred miles, hopefully.
Don't let the post race be lost in the meantime.
Missing you already........
Baby come back!
Any kind of fool could see.
Don't beg!!!
He left us, we give and give and he just walks out. ;)
We need to adjust the spring on that screen door.
My storm door (similar to a screen door) lost it's hydraulic openers in the hurricane. It's been a pain in the you-know-what. One of those things you can certainly take for granted, that's for sure.
Having a hard time picturing this door. Screen doors are pretty light. Why would it have a hydraulic opener?Quote:

Yeah, I basically have a storm door but we never refer to them that way. The lower half of mine has glass and a screen so you can let air in if you want.
But it's very light, no hydraulic opener, seems like over kill. Unless your talking about the hydraulic closer, lots of them have that.
Edit: I probably shouldn't have said "we" never refer to them as storm door, I really don't know what other people call them. They don't seem like much protection from a storm. lol
You're right. I meant closer, not opener.
But I think it has to do with how the glass shatters if its compromised. Although, I could be wrong. But it survived Hurricane Ida and the eye of the storm passed directly over my town (about 40 miles north from where it made landfall) so all I know is that they work!
Yeah, those are more "dampeners" to help close while keeping doors from slamming closed... or sailing and slamming opened if a gust catches them.
In more rustic times there were sometimes two springs or a single multi-tensioned spring rigged to accomplish the same job... instead of just a simple closing spring. The pneumatic (not hydraulic) "spring" serves the same purpose.
Yeah, I remember those. When DD said hydraulic door opener I was thinking WOW that's cool, just press a button and the door opens, that's fancy. lol
Wow, I just came on the forum and I was the only one listed under "Current Active Users".
It's scary here all by myself!!!
You are amongst friends :wave:
I'm thinking about creating a CSS file that only adds media queries for mobile screens that redesigns VBForums and handing it to Steve. The forum is just short of unusable on phones.
Yeah, using this site on a phone is terrible. A well designed mobile app would probably significantly increase the usage.
I've thought about that, but this website doesn't use traditional API's to build the pages. Instead, it is built using PHP basically using server-side rendering to display the page as-is which is probably why we're getting all these timeouts too.
A better design would be to setup API's to fetch the necessary data and then use client-side operations (like fetch) to build the page.
So the only thing I can think of is to just provide the owners with CSS that makes it look responsive.
