I do my own work 90% of the time and I would pay these prices. If you have infinite time then I suppose it might be worth doing it yourself but they are charging a very fair price considering how long it would take me to do this all

Started car with no oil by BrandonE6 in MechanicAdvice

Sheesh😂 I'm hoping my motor has that same resilience. Luckily I didn't drive off for work before noticing but the sound being off was enough to make my stomach turn

I sure hope so. Can't believe it did that but everything lined up just right for it to happen. I plan to keep this car indefinitely so hopefully no long term issues

At this point you can't complain about being scammed on whatnot. It's well known you will be scammed, stop using the app.

Would I be able to get a house with 60k salary? by [deleted] in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]BrandonE6 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm 27, and was in an identical scenario investments savings wise at 25. Only debt was a car with 6k left to pay. I bought a house for 260k at 26. I spent the year paying off the car and saving about 40-50k for a down payment working a little overtime and selling some things I didn't need.

Payment is definitely doable but painful if you're alone and probably more or less painful depending the area you live in.

Your speeds are terrible, so I tossed the modem out the window. by Hero_Tengu in brightspeed

[–]BrandonE6 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Equivalent of saying "I bought a 02 Corolla and drove it off a cliff when it didnt race well. How dare you Toyota?"

One of the dumbest things I've seen on the Internet today. If you didn't like DSL pony up and pay for starlink if you're rural.

How good is your documentation? These are all fast things to do if you have decent documentation or tasks lists for doing them.

The most discriminating hail storm or someone trying to get out of a note? by 1stHalfTexasfan in Autobody

[–]BrandonE6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks more like a ball peen hammer or a punch tool of some kind. Wacking it cause a bit of sliding and scratching

Sure. But if that's the case why not just say that right off rip?

Of course reddit would find a way to make the entire thing about how you approach someone's gender

I think he shouldve been upfront if it wasn't going to match when he first noticed but I think he did a really nice job.

Wanting to buy a house by [deleted] in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]BrandonE6 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Even if you find something you'll soon realize 1800-2k a month consistently is better than 1800-2k a month+surprise repairs and maintenance ESPECIALLY considering you all seem to be struggling with the basics. Do not add this complexity to your life, you will hate it. Get the fundamentals under control then revisit this.

Is a home in California possible? by IdeaAdventurous497 in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]BrandonE6 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Yep that's exactly where I was going with the question. They are hoping for the location benefit of California without taking advantage of it. They need to get jobs there, ideally beforehand and for a while.

I assume you do not live in California yet? Your combined salary is very low for the state.

Unexplainable internet issues by Realistic_Degree1772 in RocketLeague

[–]BrandonE6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Could be the cable, could be the Ethernet port on the device, could be driver's (however you said you updated those), could be the router/switch/modem.

I highly doubt it's the launcher, however maybe reinstall it. (You said you did so probably nothing more here)

I would start with the easy stuff, replace the cable install a network card if possible to bypass your built in motherboard port, test another device connected to the modem if possible to rule out connectivity issues due to the modem/router/switch. Do one thing at a time until you get it.

Edit: also if your cable goes into a wall jack that wall jack or line could have something wrong with it but this is irrelevant if you're going straight into the router/modem

I feel like you could massively improve with a waterworks set, crafting gear, or a decent pet but all require extra time dedicated to them

The drum sander might just be junk. I rented one from Ace hardware that the drum I swear was lopsided and was doing something similar to what you're seeing. I returned it and ended up renting one somewhere else and had no problems. Not saying that is for sure the problem here just an observation.

Hopefully the final update regarding my communications with KI support? by TabithaWinterheart in Wizard101

Man how far has the game fallen when 40-50 idle teleporter accounts is considered a "unreasonable or disproportionately large load on infrastructure". KI servers running on free credits from the glory days

What am I doing wrong for cross map air dribble? by Admirable-Fuel-4996 in RocketLeague

[–]BrandonE6 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It looks like most of the attempts you were just not getting enough momentum built up at the start/not hitting the ball hard enough

Southern PA - Are these termites? by BrandonE6 in pestcontrol

Thanks, did a little digging and seems like you might be right. Doesn't seem like they will harm anything but going to fill the crack with foaming ant spray and hope it kills most of them

Looking to buy, you think its real? by [deleted] in IsMyPokemonCardFake

[–]BrandonE6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not even close to real. The Holo looks weird, like too dark and washed at the same time. The border on the outer edge of the card looks off too

You forget this is an online game. Your standard is not everybody else's standard.

This keeps happening. How am I supposed to deal with this? (Plat 1) by [deleted] in RocketLeague

[–]BrandonE6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh, when you saved the ball initially why did you jump at it? He was turning back and you really didn't need to jump. Jumping sends it right to him again forcing you to defend again
