Thanks, I will try that.

Do you not consider olive oil a normal humus ingredient?

I’ve seen lots of bathrooms go moldy. Too often they aren’t built to handle periods high humidity. That’s why bathroom fans are a thing… They are even required by code in a lot of places, precisely to avoid humidify build up.

Oh, duh, sorry. Somehow I started reading the comments without having read OP’s post. It was funnier though imagining the bat way.

Why do people bother answering no to this? It reminds me of when Amazon used to forward questions that others had posted about a product to people who had purchased it, and you would see answers like I DONT KNOW I BOUGHT IT FOR MY GRANDSON.

Cräzy!

The sleep upside down thing? What, like a bat?

I don’t care how fancy it is, I don’t like pample flavoured mousse.

Wait, are you saying you can look at a bright light to suppress a sneeze? I used to work with a guy who said bright light sometimes made him sneeze.

I will bet a lot of the listings you are looking at really are OEM unlocked, they are just not clear about it. I bought a refurbished pixel 7 pro on Amazon in 2023 for $234. The listing just says “service provider: unlocked”. I installed graphene on it.

That said, I see a subsequent review on this listing commissioning that the received phone was not carrier unlocked, so I guess you have to be prepared for some trial and error and returns.

I would broaden your eBay search to just “unlocked” and then maybe message sellers to verify the kind of unlocked state.

Possibly something here is useful: https://discuss.grapheneos.org/d/13146-any-way-to-tell-if-a-sealed-in-box-pixel-is-oem-unlockable

Pure tung. I do this all the time. On wood. Maybe you’re not putting a thin enough coat. Do you get a shine (without buffing)? Or do you get a matte finish?

The cloth is just damp with it, just enough to leave a sheen on the wood. Now I do put the cloth in a closed container and reuse it several times without needing to put fresh oil on it. So it’s possible after the first coat its got a little bit of a start at polymerizing. But it remains damp, it doen’t get hard or sticky, so if it starts polymerizing, its not obvious.

I’m doing this in my basement. No special curing conditions, no open window, no sunlight.

Also, maybe wood vs plastic makes a difference.

After thinking some, I should probably emphasize that I’m not claiming you can’t get a good result with a less extremely thin coat…perhaps the 2-3 days you state is a way to do that. Others do it by sanding between coats, a lot of buffing, or thinning with terps.

I’ve gone toward doing it thinner over the years, but I have some good results from before I was as particular about thinness as I am now, but that have may have been because I happened not to get to it every 24 hours. I also have had problems from what was “too thick” to my mind, but possibly “not enough time between coats” is another valid take.

I do think though, that there is a point where no amount of time will give you a good cure. If you get a weird spot in the wood that wants to drink up the oil, and you let it, that soaked in oil never properly cures and can remain a problem.

24 hr is enough if the coat is thin enough.

It blows Breezy away.

I recommend this also, but put a REALLY thin coat on. Like you should think you’ve barely got any on, and you should then wipe it off and think you’ve wiped too much off. There is a lot of bad advice out there about these oils. You can put more coats on if you think it needs it, 24 hours apart. If you put too much on, it will tend to look matte, or worse, get gummy.

Stupid, sexy, Kong!

“So you’re absolutely sure, there’s not, like a drug cartel or something, trying to get this back?”

I really hate to accept that exposing assy words and behavior just makes it worst, but it’s hard to argue with that example.

The way the internet enables awful outliers to find each other and organize really makes one question whether it was ever a good idea.

When a person’s words makes then look like an ass, I’m not sure that giving them more exposure is “promoting” them.

I used to work with a guy from Kentucky and he used to say “there’s nothing worse than an Illinois Yankee.” (I should emphasize I have nothing against Illinois, I just thought it was funny and an interesting counterpoint to your comment. BTW: am a Yankee.)

Also, I work with a guy from rural Pennsylvania, and he sometimes describes it as Pennsyltucky.

If you have an actual cod you can save a step by just slapping the egg with the fish directly.
