Got a Hiby R1 cuz I’ve been extremely nostalgic for standalone devices and wanted something for my music! Such a cute little device. It has buttons on the side for controls, so it can work fully without the screen turned on.

Alright, Reddit. I don't like you at all, but this is really fucking funny.

Forgot to add this!! Did a whole water heater install with some help of the roommates. Got a nice little filter, too. Saved us a fortune doing it myself! Also took like 12 hours since I had to replace a bunch of other things in the process.

I was so excited to claim the transphobic, racist, antisemitic simulator that I accidentally deleted my EGS account! Oopsies~ 😊 (Also ugh at people not realizing that claiming the game means a check in royalties is still sent out to the transphobe. 🙄)

Finished the HVAC fix! Scraped off as much rust as I could, cleaned up the area, and attached a steel plate. There’s still rust, but it’s just superficial. Any more work would be solely for aesthetics.

HVAC ducting with the focus being the new steel plate attached over the old rusty metal.

Covered a hole!!! Will do the other one another time. Maybe tomorrow?? I dunno!

THE EVIL HAS BEEN DEFEATED!! Just removing four screws inside of it took sooooo much effort. They were flathead and rusted into the ducting. You can see how bad the humidifier ruined things. TRASHED!!

A taken-apart humidifier barely clinging on to the HVAC ducting.

HVAC ducting with the focus of the removed humidifier. Lots of rust “pouring” down the ducting, originating from where the humidifier used to be.

Water inlet removed! Also found out it had a solid drip, so I had to use a wrench to close the outlet valve. There’s still a bit of water in the humidifier, but a lot less so now.

A photo of a humidifier attached to HVAC ducting. The focus is the water line is disconnected and gone.

A photo of a red bucket under a water outlet. The focus is the lack of a connecting water line.

Ugh, this is after I flushed it for 10 minutes. 🤢

My solution is silly: keep the water inlet plunger pressed down to allow fresh water to cycle in and drain the stagnant water. Then I’ll siphon the rest out.

The issue with the humidifier* is that it has a pool of what looks like black tar sitting in it. That’s just stagnant water which has been sitting for god knows how long.

Next task: get rid of the ancient dehumidifier.
