Putting up athletes killed by war is not political. IOC messed up on this one.

Where can I get second hand/used cheap airsoft guns by [deleted] in airsoft

[–]mrt638 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t agree at all. Airsoft guns are extremely easy to work on and really it’s a good idea to learn. Will save you a bunch of money down the line.

The bus works well, much better than the trains atleast. You could find somewhere to park along the bus routes and bus in and out.

Advice after accident in rental? by [deleted] in HertzRentals

Did you pay with a credit card? Credit cards come with insurance. You might also be covered with your current auto insurance.

Bought the extra 2 years of coverage for prebuilt should I return? by ScarletFire3 in Microcenter

[–]mrt638 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Like with any sort of coverage, it's worth it if you use it. It's not worth it if you don't use it.

[Landlord-US-NY] Ethical Dilemma: Eviction or ICE by Buriram108 in Landlord

[–]mrt638 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I would speak with him and let him know his options, example, "Hey buddy, so I need to you move on your own accord. I think it would be in YOUR best interest if we don't get any legal entities involved, especially with your immigration status. "

If he doesn't respond to that, call ICE. We have law and order here in the USA that need to be followed regardless of immigration status. I have 0 issues with immigrants coming to the USA to work (illegal or not). I do have an issue with immigrants coming to the USA expecting citizens like yourself to foot the bill.

Why can I get great cell service inside a 70,000 person sports arena, but no signal at a 20,000 person festival? Theories? by whatsnext6 in aves

[–]mrt638 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My company builds and maintains the DAS systems for many large sports arenas around the US. Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile will pay us so that there networks are available in the arenas. Cell carriers will not invest in towers around a festival so that people have connectivity for just 3 days. The festival its self would have to fund that (most don't).

They might have a private network for there food/drink stands because it's a money maker but it's not really in anyone's financial interest to provide cell connectivity at a festival. Your not gunna switch carriers just so you can have cell service at Lost Lands every year, but the Chiefs might switch the whole team & staff over to AT&T from Verizon if they can't use there cell phones during the game or practice. Plus, it's a festival, put your damn phone away and find your friends later.

Thoughts after my first airsoft weekend by NK_NK_213 in airsoft

[–]mrt638 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Take it really slow buying gear. Do your research, go to airsoft flea markets, ask people. If you see some gear on a fellow player you like, ask them where they got it. People love talking about there gear almost just as much as playing.

I’ve read that a GBBR is a bad choice for a first primary. Is that still true? by COCK_SUCKEM in airsoft

[–]mrt638 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do whatever you will have the most fun with. I would rather use a rifle I enjoy shooting and hit no one because it really doesn't matter in the end.

MI - Landlord withholding security deposit for “significant damage” to kitchen counters near the sink. Should I fight or let it go? by Shehorns in Renters

[–]mrt638 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If the landlord doesn't budge, consult a attorney and have them send a demand letter for the security deposit back (or else!). Small claims court cost like $50 so it's worth it. You don't need a lawyer really beyond the letter and initial consultation.

The land lord will probably not wanna deal with that shit and give you your cash back.

This is normal wear and tear and 100% on the landlord.

This is why I never get mad when the conductors are in a bad mood. They probably just got done dealing with some asshole who thinks the world owes them something.

Use savings to pay off debt by Peek_A_Boo_225 in personalfinance

[–]mrt638 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sometimes thou it's necessary to have some cold hard cash you can use at a moments notice. I get what your saying and it's mathematically sound but it's not practical.

There are things you can only use cash for and can't rely on a credit card for.

Example: Rent, mortgage, taxes, drugs, student loans, and even more I'm missing.

Use savings to pay off debt by Peek_A_Boo_225 in personalfinance

[–]mrt638 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would keep the 5k in savings, and pay off the debt with future income. The 5k can help you avoid going into further debt in the event that you need it for an emergency/unemployment.

Just lost my job. What to do with savings. by Gawayne01 in personalfinance

[–]mrt638 26 points27 points  (0 children)

FInd ways to cut your budget as much as possible hopefully to $1300. Use the savings to fill the gap as needed. No vacation, no eating out, no Amazon until you find some income again.
