  I noticed that sometimes the astute beta server APK can be a bit slow to load, especially on older devices or low-end phones. From my experience, a few tips really help improve loading speed: clearing the app cache before starting, closing background apps to free up RAM, making sure the APK is updated to the latest version, and using a stable internet connection. On my phone, these steps reduced lag and made the beta server run much smoother. Has anyone else found other ways to boost performance in the Astute Beta Server? Would love to hear your tricks.

  Posted in the topic How to Protect Wood from Termites and Moisture? in the forum Off-Topic Discussions

  Although wood is among the most gorgeous and versatile materials available to building professionals, it is also susceptible to termite and moisture damage if appropriate precautions are not taken. Fortunately, in rather limited circumstances, staying smart and taking a few common-sense steps can save you significant money and repairs later.

  Use treated wood for any application where the lumber will come into contact with moisture or soil. Treated wood, which has been chemically-treated or pressure treated, is a far more durable and valuable defence against termite damage and rot than untreated wood. Along with treating your wood if possible, please apply a good sealant or preservative to protect against moisture and pests.

  Pay close attention to the proper ventilation and drainage around your wood structure. Areas that are regularly damp from standing water or humidity can promote termite activity and also encourage mold. Regular maintenance such as repainting or resealing your wood every couple of years will also help to keep your wood in good shape.

  Prior to undertaking any wood working project, accurate your millwork estimation goes a long way towards planning usage of materials, ensuring that you purchase the right amount of chain treated and preserved wood. This is a simple step you could take to improve quality in the end, while preventing waste and creating a safe structure for many years.

  How do you best protect your detailed wood work from termites and moisture over the long term?
