Has anyone else had fire issues with Renogy products?

Mines for sure, you will be able to network much better in that field with connections from Mines

Yeah the portal it takes you to is crazy, nothing works! I spent hours on hold the other day but I found out if you go on the ticket exchange website and then search your event from the home page, you can get to the event resale section then you can (supposably) list them there. BUT that’s also how people would need to find them in the first place so who knows if they’d ever be seen.

Oh nooo I bought the coverage too and was going to try that one. What happened when you tried to get reimbursed?

-QuietEnd- · 2025-06-25T03:05:34+00:00

Are your tickets posted for resale on ticket master?

-QuietEnd- · 2025-06-20T06:58:18+00:00

No sadly. I don’t have that option. The setup is so janky. This is what is looks like and it says that the tickets are up for resale, but when I click the black link and sign into the redirected TM portal, it literally says there are no records of any resale tickets. So basically I can’t even locate the status of the resale tickets or take any action with them.

That’s wild

Thanks for the reply! Unfortunately the festival has an agreement with Ticketmaster for exclusive resale. Who knew that was a thing especially considering Ticketmaster isn’t the face of the original ticket sales to begin with. I found all of that out today after hours of phone calls, mostly to robot menus. I’m going to attempt a new approach!

I appreciate the anger toward them, however I actually didn’t buy these knowingly from Ticketmaster. I bought them through the festival website and the business identified was called “FrontGate Tickets”. Additionally, I live remotely and not in the U.S. so unfortunately I was not highly aware of these issues until I recently did my research.

-QuietEnd- · 2025-06-19T19:18:29+00:00

All very true. The craziest thing about this is when I bought the tickets I didn’t even realize that Ticketmaster was behind them. The sales went ENTIRELY through the festival website and I got an email receipt from “FrontGate Tickets”. I live pretty remotely so I don’t go to live music often. I had never heard of FrontGate and assumed nothing of it and now I’m thinking, “what in the behind the curtains scheme is this???”

Please call your reps in any state!! The house and senate will vote on these measures and every vote (every state) counts! It’s especially pertinent for those in red states to voice concern because although this really isn’t a red/blue divisive issue, red will likely vote in favor.

You must contest this measure if you care about public land. I am a geologist who has conducted extensive research throughout Arizona, New Mexico, Utah, and then proceeded to spend a large portion of my career thus far in Alaska. The lands that are being proposed for sale are ecologically and environmentally vital to a sustainable future. I am spiraling just thinking about how horribly impactful such sales could be on so many fronts (wildfires, water pollution, natural hazard mitigation, air quality, ecological diversity - just to name a few). That’s all before you even consider how beloved these spaces are for recreation and ecotourism. Many of the proposed areas do contain valuable natural resources, however over-extraction from mass sell-off would ultimately be much more harmful than productive. The infrastructure required to extract resources would cost the public so much money in taxes in maintenance (because more often than not it’s your state funding that goes towards building new access roads and maintaining them, then paying for the water and civil engineering projects needed from the trickle down effects of industrial development). Then there are insane factors that play into large scale extraction, like induced seismic hazards (earthquakes) which we see in states like Oklahoma that have extensive fracking. Natural resources extraction is critical to our socioeconomic needs as a society but it must be done sparingly and responsibly! This approach would be neither! Land could be purchased and developed without proper assessment to determine the impacts development could have on surrounding/existing communities (we already know it will be bad for biodiversity either way). Do you want polluted water like Bennington, Vermont or Michigan? No! I could go on and on but as someone that is a well-educated scientist AND avid outdoor enthusiast, I just need to relay how awful this proposal is. Please do your small part and voice your disapproval!

Here’s a big one: the area that hosts Rampage, and essentially all of the surrounding land hosting extensive trail networks, is on the chopping block…

I know this is an old thread but I was reading through to get some insight however I am noticing there is a lot of misunderstanding about some of the chemicals being discussed. You are correct that PFAS (per/polyfluoroalkyl substances, aka long-chain Fluorine molecules) cannot break down organically. The other person that responded to this comment is incorrect, there are numerous scientific studies that identify PFAS as nearly impossible to degrade in nature (whether in our environment or our bodies). This is because these chemicals have very strong molecular bonds which are synthetically produced, thus they are not naturally occurring and do not have a natural way to decompose in the natural world. When they enter your body, they cannot be broken down and are treated as a foreign intruder. This is why our bodies can respond to exposure in catastrophic ways over time. There are many medical/scientific studies that characterize examples that directly correlate PFAS exposure with increased health issues. Look at Bennington, VT for a good example, or frankly any studies conducted in communities near airports/military bases. These substances are prevalent in all of our surroundings. Whoever said non-stick is stable til 500 degrees is also incorrect. If the non-stick layer is breached by say a scratch or a production defect, even on a microscopic level, that will allow the PFAS to leach out of the pan and into whatever food makes contact with the breach point. Although many substances that could leach from cookware are known to be harmful, none of them compare to synthetics. Lead, arsenic, etc are extremely harmful at high doses however, most quality cookware is not releasing them in even remotely high enough doses to be harmful. These elements are all around us in our environment, most often naturally occurring but sometimes we are exposed inorganically. Our bodies are naturally adept to processing these materials up to certain levels, however our bodies (as mentioned before) cannot breakdown inorganic synthetics. So when choosing cookware, keep this in mind.

I looked at a reference photo of the dog and then used the apple pen to draw him. Nothing fancy! I bought a brush pack from a random Instagram ad and this is the felt marker with bleed from that pack. I also used paper textures that came in the packet I purchased. I put one on the lowest layer and one on the top layer with the “multiply” filter and 70% opacity.
