We have a kitchen with a U shaped with a peninsula that divides the kitchen and the living room/dining room. If the end of the peninsula is against a black wall, how far up the wall do we stop the backsplash? I'm also assuming the backsplash will be stopped at the end of the counter top so it doe...
I still think that SE did a terrible job on the UI design of moderator tools, the same buttons do different things depending on who you are. They should have added new buttons, and some instructions about when to press those buttons would have also been helpful.
@TheEvilGreebo that's one of my downvotes for today.
maybe people are stuck though - like programming - not everything has an answer - sometimes something needs to be talked out to to see why it doesn't work like that or why its a wrong way
@lsiunsuex I'm not always right, but I always try the follow the rules that SE gives me to follow. It's their game, they get to make the rules, and we get to chose whether we want to play.
but because a question doesn't fit on any given forum, doesn't mean that question is wrong or bad - if it goes no where else, subjective or not, it belongs in the closest forum that matches the subject(ive) matter
@lsiunsuex I'm more inclined to let a non-subjective close-to-but-not-quite-on-topic question stand than a subjective on-topic one, but like tester said - this isn't a forum
dont get me wrong - i hang out here cause i like you guys and you've helped me greatly - i just don't agree with the tactic sometimes. have a tag called subjective or something. don't close it cause it doesn't fit this pre determined mold of what a QA site is supposed to be.
Nice thing about the net - if you think you have a better idea than someone else, there's lots of room for you to try to do better. :) (No, I'm not saying if you don't like it leave)
Yes, foam board offgasses. All plasics, some woods (pine), wood products, paints and adhesives do. Some offgas products are more of a concern than others. For example, the formaldehyde emanating from OSB, MDF, particle board and plywood is perhaps the single greatest hazard in North American home...
Having said this, flame retardants are in damn near everything: all upholstery materials, draperies, mattresses, carpets.....I'm finding this to be even more difficult to eliminate than formaldehyde.
So like, you can either breathe in a little bit of flame retardant, or your house can burn down
@Aaron If your house catches on fire, it's probably going to burn down anyway (or burn enough that it's no longer inhabitable). Flame retardants only slow the flame (so you have a better chance to escape), not stop it.
