32x80 and 36x80 are the most common standard door sizes.

Do you mind if I ask how much that cost you? The main reason I'm looking to do this is because new doors are bafflingly expensive and it would be trivially easy to refinish an older, cheaper one. It's not really necessary for me to spend a bunch of money on a custom door.

I don't want to drive somewhere if it's going to waste my time. I will happily drive very far if it means driving home with a door. Why are you being such a petulant pissbaby about this? Are you a retiree with time to burn? Grow the fuck up and stop being a crybaby cunt just because I have a life other than burning gas for no fucking reason.
fucking awful humans on this sub

idk why PGHENGR is being such a piece of shit about this. No one should find it hard to understand that spending my spare time constantly driving around to various thrift stores is not a viable option. It's not how most people would choose to spend their time, if they even have it. Not to mention the fact that I've already done enough of this and I'm tired of it. AND the fact that it's 2022 and it's trivially easy to post your inventory online and not force people to drive all over the fucking county.
This is why I've bought so much stuff over the years from Pittsburgh Furniture Company in Lawrenceville. They post everything online, they keep it relatively up to date, and they're super responsive via email.

Yeah, I don't have Facebook so I can't check their inventory. Thanks though.

When I've checked Craiglist I get 99% car results, for some reason. I looked again today and one of the doors is the exact 80s one I already have on my choice.

Christ, tell me about it. When I was buying my house I saw so many just normal, mediocre houses that randomly had barn doors inside. It looks so bad.

Yeah, I'm not trying to be a dick but it's just frustrating when you ask a question like this and the answer is universally, "Just stop having any hobbies and any other interests in life and spend all your free time canvassing the antique stores of the region." I've never had the slightest bit of luck with that strategy.

I loved that stupid thing. It reminds me of 90s video game consoles, just a huge swing and a miss.

Which shops and when did you see them? I'm asking this question because I've spent the last year or two driving around the city to various shops and I have quite literally not found a single option. Everyone is telling me "oh yeah they're all over the place" but no one can say where.

Honestly man, I have been looking and I have been keeping an eye out. It has, in fact, been very hard to find and it has not been my experience that there are a lot of them around here. I've literally not seen a single entry door other than like, warehouse surplus stuff. That's why I'm asking. This isn't me beginning my search, it's me about to throw in the towel. I am well aware of all the places people typically go because I've been there. They didn't have nothing. And they didn't have nothing in the vein of "I don't like these options so I'll check back later." It was literally nothing.

Do you happen to recall if the ReStore had any doors? Sorry for grilling you lol, but I've spent too much of my time driving around to various places only for them to not have anything. A lot of the time even when you contact them they don't give you a good idea of what they have in stock.

Ideally a wooden craftsman-style door, but I'd be open to others. It's a 100 year old house and the door I have currently is what every grandma had in the 80s, so really just looking for something more appropriate.

Reply to The T free fare zone? by Chipmunks95
The West General Robinson Street garage, the one right on top of the North Side station, always used to be the cheapest garage in that vicinity. It's $9/day now. Not sure if anything is cheaper now. A lot of people also park in the War Streets because they don't have permitted parking, but then you gotta walk like 15 minutes to the T station and some days it's basically impossible to find a spot, I wouldn't recommend that.

Potomac Station Coffeehouse has some good breakfast stuff. Oak Hill Post isn't a coffee shop but they do have coffee and some of the best breakfast I've ever had.

Contrary to popular belief, it is actually a very bad practice to use any of these third-party "cleaner" tools. The chance of them breaking something is far higher than the chance of them actually helping, although they are mostly just snake oil. For instance, Windows has a built-in tool to clean up old temp files, and it's had it for a very long time. Why you would use CCleaner for this is beyond me. If there's anything CCleaner deletes that Windows doesn't, there's probably a reason for that, and I'm inclined to believe Microsoft knows more about their own OS than the CCleaner devs (please hit cancel on any dumb Microsoft jokes you're about to post). I've literally seen people break their computer doing exactly the thing you described, because they didn't realize those old "temp" files were actually the uninstallers for applications that were still installed. You ever try to uninstall something through Control Panel only to get a "cannot find file" error? That happens because someone or something deleted some files they weren't supposed to.
And /u/EvilC0leslaw is right. The registry doesn't need to be cleaned because the registry can't get "dirty." It's just a hierarchical config file store. Firefox puts its registry keys under HKLM\SOFTWARE\Mozilla. It makes no difference to Firefox if there's a bunch of unnecessary keys under HKLM\Software\App You No Longer Use.

Tom Warren usually does really great work reporting on Microsoft stuff, so I can only assume he's using CCleaner as an easy point of comparison as something people will have heard of, because this tool bears zero resemblance to CCleaner in any way. It looks legitimately very useful, but it's just them bundling some hard-to-find tools in one easy package. It's not doing anything that you can't already do in Windows.
Also, stop using shit like CCleaner, it's not "cleaning" anything.

>I hear this all the time, and agreed, most of us really don't care or even notice the issues they always seem to be talking about.
A fan simply prefers one phone more than the other. A fanboy decrees that the phone they prefer is objectively better than other types of phones. The fanboy, faced with the fact that millions of people seem to prefer a phone he claims is objectively worse, is thus forced to explain this disconnect. And what they typically resort to is, "You know your phone is bad and you just ignore because you view it as a status symbol."
