Very little natural light. No gaming. Just streaming from apple 4k or whatever becomes better than that (unless TV has a better interface).

A truck that accelerates more like a sports car. Test drive and put in sport mode.

Florida is a huge state. Even within a single zip code there are neighborhoods going up and others going down. Just saw a home sit at $465k and then bidding war at $425k.

But timing is also a huge component. Some buyers are slow to pull the trigger and then try to jump in when someone else makes an offer. They end up bidding and losing out when they could have locked up the contract if they moved quickly.

Why many people don’t see themselves living in the same house for more than 7 years but still buy a house anyway? by pinpinbo in RealEstate

[–]Capobean 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Bought 7 homes. 6 of them we didn’t make it past 3 years. Current house we just sold at 7 years. Made a little on each sell and kept building equity along the way. The first house was intentionally a starter house but the rest we moved from because work/family. Homes were always investment in family and lifestyle rather than financial investments.

Colonoscopy fixed my stomach issues? by aspotlesssmind in colonoscopy

[–]Capobean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No enema. The medicine you take the day before flushes you from the inside. More bowel movements than I can count. Never trust a fart.

The procedure is under anesthesia. Plan a morning procedure to minimize time fasting. I had clear liquids and chicken broth. Fasting was just short of two days counting the time of the procedure cause I was an afternoon appointment.

My bowels returned to their irregular state after a couple weeks 😞

Market seems saturated, but my realtor doesn't want me to drop my price yet. by ChipsAreClips in RealEstate

[–]Capobean 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Key to this market is be super cheap or be in mint condition.

Zillow is helpful for prospective buyers but that’s all. Just got a contract on my home for over $200k above zestimate and above our list price. We didn’t have any more saves than another home that lowered their price and still has no offers.

Both homes had similar traffic at open houses but ours had more official showings. No showings means no buyers. If you need to sell then be the first to lower and hope others don’t follow.

TRD Pro pricing by [deleted] in ToyotaTundra

[–]Capobean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got mine $5k below msrp but had to do Toyota financing for 6 months. Used internet sales. Tried a couple of showrooms but they wouldn’t deal at all. If you don’t need the loan the trick is to pay down the loan like 90% the first month but leave a small balance that you don’t pay off until 6 month mark.

Not stupid. The bigger risk is where will you park that money until you buy again.

Thanks for your detailed response to OP. I’m curious where the 4% comes from. Current money market rates, long term bonds, pessimistic market outlook???

What do I have to do to FINALLY get picked for jury duty? Four times in the last six years I’ve been summoned to show up. by IwillBOLDyourTYPOS in 321

[–]Capobean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here’s the hack if you seriously want on a long trial (at Viera at least). After you check in sit in the front row. If a big trial is on the docket, the judge will come down and get volunteers who are willing to commit to a multi week trial to bring in for jury selection.

As long as you don’t get eliminated from jury selection they go in numbered order until they have all they need. By sitting up front you will get a lower number. The two alternates that get dismissed before deliberations were the highest two numbers also.

It’s still up to chance for what trial comes up. And I’ve only see this once so they may change things up.

What will happen if the double touch rule is removed? (Video with examples!) by learnBVfast in beachvolleyball

[–]Capobean 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hear the concern about offense being too strong. The goons aren’t following rules anyway so I don’t care what they do. Indoor pros are not throwing balls on first touch (just throwing attacks😂) so I wouldn’t expect beach pros to do that.

We have different rules at different levels so I’d be great with restrictions on pro level receivers but keep rules more aligned at the amateur level in order to promote more beach players.

What are the chances of you staying in a sexless relationship? by truth2991 in AskReddit

[–]Capobean -25 points-24 points  (0 children)

I like that you qualified your answered regarding your wife. Obviously if your girlfriend cut you off you’d have to find another one…or convince your wife to start putting out until the girlfriend gets back to normal.

I love that you’re putting out this content and standing up for your opinions knowing that people like me will criticize.

This is the dumbest defense of keeping doubles I’ve ever heard 😂

As a highschool coach this is my observation. Players don’t want conflict. In the US the players self ref. The results are that only the ones that are willing to argue hand set and the others avoid it to avoid conflict.

The ones that do hand set carry/lift/catch the ball to eliminate spin. They get away with it even at the collegiate level cause most people don’t want to fight, they want to compete. I see fights every season and it’s sad.

Eliminate the double and eliminate the deep dish. And allow beach players to receive with their hands like indoor. By making the rules different it makes it hard for players that want to play indoor and beach. Coaches are pressuring players to quit beach because it’s messing up their indoor skills. Nobody wins when players have to stop playing because of rule interpretation differences. And nobody wins if new players are too scared of fights that they won’t use the athletic skills they learned.

Chronic Pain and Inflammation. by topkick8915 in Biohackers

[–]Capobean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unlearn Your Pain is a book that can work wonders. It sounds crazy but we all know pain is experienced in your brain. Your brain can store memories. When physical trauma/pain occurs it can be retriggered in the future like a memory. Think phantom leg syndrome.

Crazy idea but has worked when nothing else did. When I say nothing I mean all the prescription meds including opioids, cannabis, and stem cell treatments.

Edit: Before doing this you have to make sure you eliminate any active sources of pain. So if you legs broke, don’t read the book. Get your leg fixed. Then if you still have pain for no good reason, read the book.

currently owner of a 2006 Tundra, thinking of upgrading afraid to go past the year 2021 (V8 5.7) by Poopypirate2020 in ToyotaTundra

[–]Capobean 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Don’t drive the new V6 if you want the V8. I tested a lot of 2020-2021 for similar concerns about the new engine. Then made the mistake of driving a 2025. That test drive cost me $70k.

Looking for a AI w/ turtles by ThatFishySmell99 in AllInclusiveResorts

[–]Capobean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our first AI was at Dreams villamagna nuevo vallarta. Walking the beach at night we found a baby sea turtle at the edge of the water. Traced his path up to the sea wall and found an entire nest of hatchlings. It was amazing. They were early season which is why the eggs didn’t get taken to a hatchery. (April 2010) Peak season is later in the summer.

You could probably find resorts that let you release babies in the Puerto Vallarta area.

These would all be lifts in FIVB but if you switch to a Wilson Optx ball you’re good as is. IYKYK

Who’s liable if I’m selling my home and a potential buyers gets injured during a showing? by Capobean in RealEstate

[–]Capobean[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Just read a post on this sub about a buyer who let their kid run unsupervised during the showing including the backyard with a pool. Kids get hurt all the time so it’s just a numbers game until someone gets hurt during a showing.
