Rules for Posting Guides on Our Community
1. Defining a Guide Guides are comprehensive reference materials, how-tos, or comparison tables. A guide must be well-organized both in content and layout. Information should be easily accessible without unnecessary navigation. Guides can include flowcharts, step-by-step instructions, or visual references that compare different elements side by side.
2. Infographic Guidelines Infographics are permitted if they are educational and informative. They should aim to convey complex information visually and clearly. However, infographics that primarily serve as visual essays without structured guidance will be subject to removal.
3. Grey Area Moderators may use discretion when deciding to remove posts. If in doubt, message us or use downvotes for content you find inappropriate.
4. Source Attribution If you know the original source of a guide, share it in the comments to credit the creators.
5. Diverse Content To keep our community engaging, avoid saturating the feed with similar topics. Excessive posts on a single topic may be moderated to maintain diversity.
6. Verify in Comments Always check the comments for additional insights or corrections. Moderators rely on community expertise for accuracy.

I’m so thrilled that the building next to mine is being bought. I talked to the new owner and asked about changing out the building lights. Currently they are like a mix of design 1 and 2 (it’s a hanging globe under a fixture, so virtually nothing blocked), but about 60 foot up, in the middle of a residential area that doesn’t do street lights (small town, not a main road).
Basically all the houses around this building have to have light blocking curtains because of the shitty lights. They are -much- brighter (actual bulb power plus light spill, plus they are bright white and not warm) than the street lights a couple roads over.
He’s going to be converting them into design 4, more or less, to limit the light spill to mostly just that property. His son said “fuck yeah we can fix that, it would drive me nuts too!” And I’ll see if I can convince him to change out the bulbs for something less harsh as well.
