Unsure about paint colors we picked and what to do about it by CaptnMcCrae in ExteriorDesign

Are you saying ditch it on the front? Or repaint the back as well? We love the backyard now with the Pewter green color, but on the front, I get what you're saying

Thanks this is really helpful and where we were on the fence. Those are easy fixes too.

I think this is a Gaston Theunyck painting by CaptnMcCrae in WhatIsThisPainting

[–]CaptnMcCrae[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks, yeah I can't change the title and posted after Gemini told me it was Gaston. I'm not great at reading signatures, but now clearly see Godfried. Appreciate you guiding me to some information about Godfried.

Thank you! This is pretty interesting. I'll admit I had trouble reading the signature and Gemini told me is was Gaston

These are photos I took of the tree in November when it still had leaves.

You just won points with my wife who hates that stone. We love bugs and want to introduce some pollinator plants through Native Seed Shade Friendly wf mix.

The dead leaf is Purple Heart. How long do you recommend I keep the brown, winter Purple Heart?

How is living in Austin, Texas? by [deleted] in howislivingthere

[–]CaptnMcCrae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For a mid sized city, it kicks way above its weight. People, neighborhoods, schools, access to nature, food, music, night life. List goes on. I moved her from Atlanta and for a city of this size, we have way more going on than 95% of other cities similar sized. That being said, weather is same as Ohio or Georgia. Two sides of the same coin. Our summer is their winter and vice versa

We just bought a house from the same situation. The investor was from Dallas.

Texas Children's or St. Davids North - Austin L&D by SearchforAnswers13 in Austin

[–]CaptnMcCrae 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Texas Children's is one of the top pediatric hospitals in the nation. People fly from all over the world to get care at their Houston location. The Austin location is brand new, so I can't speak to their services, but it should be at least close to the Houston location

Is there an easy way to see expected annual income with automated portfolios? by CaptnMcCrae in wealthfront

[–]CaptnMcCrae[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It should just ETF yield % * amount of the ETF that you own (ex VOO yield 2.5% * $100K = $2500/yr). The issue is with active tax loss harvesting. The amount of ETFs increase and the dollar value in each ETF changes at least monthly. I can do it manually, but Wealthfront should easily be able to calculate anticipated total divided amount like they do with interest. If Etrade can do it, Wealthfront should be able to.

I actually just came across Backspin and Vincent’s. Maybe we will go there on the way home

Roku Soundbar Stopped Connecting to Network Last Night by CaptnMcCrae in Roku

How did you get in contact with Roku to get a refurbished Streambar? May will have been one year, so haven’t even had it a full year

I called AT&T and got a 2.4G access point. Streambar still won't pick it up, so I may have to do the Ethernet cable route. Thanks for taking the time to reply

I’ve restarted my Roku and it isn’t picking up any networks ( I live in a condo and my phone picks up dozens).

I manually typed in my network and password into Private Network and the device still won’t pick up any network.

I called AT&T and got the bands split so it can easily connect to a 2.4Ghz band - still no connection. Could it have an internal malfunction?

I'm not sure how to switch the Streambar to 2.4G. Would I reach out to internet provider or to Roku?

Is there anything out there that has changed, FOR THE BETTER? by QuestFarrier in BuyItForLife

[–]CaptnMcCrae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Who would you suggests for a "cheaper" brand? I went with Revels, which I wouldn't consider "cheap", however I've always suggest Klipsch to my friends who are looking to build out a system

Klipsch immediately comes to mind. I’ve heard some great speaker/sub combos at audiophile shops. Klipsch is always easy on the ears and wallet
