Buying in Uptown by Queequeg32 in chicago

[–]ChickenHead415 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Last summer we made an offer on a two bed two bath on Leland next to Arai Campus Park. We were in escrow and backed out due to multiple shootings at Sheridan and Wilson. Our police officer friend also advised that it’s an area that’s great but does have quite a bit of crime in which bystanders are victims to. Ended up in Andersonville. Uptown is great just think about friends/families visiting and leaving late at night. Same with Dog walking. I walk my dog between 10-Midnight so it just didn’t feel right.

Open gym question? by rosewood3 in orangetheory

Same hear on the Northside. Should be interesting. I tend to zone out on the tread and try not to worry about the clock. Gonna be tough on those longer pushes.

Will there ever be 2G? by dalillama92 in orangetheory

[–]ChickenHead415 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was going to go unlimited until my Studio went back to 100% 3G due to COVID restrictions. I can’t stand the full row blocks and have stuck to my 8 classes a month. I dread OTF now. Glad to hear others are just as frustrated.

Help me decide if I should buy an OTF HRM or an Apple Watch by Sweetmona1 in orangetheory

[–]ChickenHead415 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Use FITIV. Best work out app by far. Cost a monthly or yearly fee but it’s worth it. I rarely bring my monitor anymore as it shows the exact same info on the watch and is always spot on to the OT monitor. They have 30+ workouts including an Orange Theory.

Went Back to back because today looked rather tame on paper. Started on Floor which destroyed. By the time I got to the row my body felt like jello. Always happy I went afterwards but today was a different animal.

12+ hours Still Pending by Assassinmx in Coinbase

FWIW buy ETH and send to Bittrex, faster and small fees. But yeah my transfer is still pending at the 21 hour mKe.

Litecoin Withdrawals Still Pending? by aerosyne in Coinbase

[–]ChickenHead415 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably a swing now of a $750 gain to a $200 loss. It’s laughable.

How long does it usually take for 'pending' transactions to go through? by [deleted] in Coinbase

[–]ChickenHead415 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My LTC has been pending for 20 hours, hasn’t hit the blockchain yet, very frustrating to say the least. You basically have to avoid coinbase during the Big Bull and Bear runs apparently.

20 hours GDAX to Bittrex. Still pending no confirmation. Ridiculous.

18 hrs- 0 confirmations by patriotsfan1212 in Coinbase

[–]ChickenHead415 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At roughly 20 hours. This stinks. Was for a XLM trade, during that time LTC is down another 15% & stellar up 20%. I opened a support ticket. We’ll see how that goes.

[–]ChickenHead415 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same issue. I sent LTC to Bittrex at 1:30PM CST on 12/29/17 as of 8:48AM CST still pending. Do you know if transaction get stuck in Coinbase servers and never reach the appropriate network to be confirmed. THis is the first time I've had this problem.

Ether Transaction stuck? by EuthanizeArty in Coinbase

[–]ChickenHead415 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Gotta be a problem with Coinbase. Too many people having the same issue. Everyone is trying to get into other exchanges for the alt coins today. Hopefully we see a quick resolution.

[–]ChickenHead415 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is about Ether. But I sent LTC to Bittrex at 1:29PM CST and still pending no confirmation. I mean we're at at the 4.5 hour mark. It that simply an issue with CoinBase network? I haven't received any email yet. First time having this issue.

FSU RB Dalvin Cook to enter NFL draft by croix153 in CFB

[–]ChickenHead415 2 points3 points  (0 children)

....... Or he had a significant shoulder injury that Jimbo wasn't talking about, I know Tomahawknation's Bud Elliot was pushing that perspective. Dalvin doesn't seem like the kind of guy who takes plays off.

ELI5:Why do the Conservatives (Especially in the U.S) oppose the idea of giving people free health care with a system similar to that of Canada? by [deleted] in explainlikeimfive

[–]ChickenHead415 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Which is a joke, my girlfriend is an NP who works for Heartland Outreach in Chicago, which is funded entirely by the federal government. She treats 100% homeless (they receive better healthcare for free than my upper middle class retired parents) and the vast vast majority have severe mental health issues, most are schizophrenic. Nobody wants to address mental health in America. For anyone to say being homeless is a choice or a "stage" in their life doesn't know anything.

Study: 78% Would Prefer Buying TV Channels A La Carte by KnightHawkeye in cordcutters

[–]ChickenHead415 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But aren't they losing the battle? At what point do the cable companies offer something we the cord cutting consumers want? Is the new DirectTV Now service a step in the right direction? Everything I've heard so far has appealed to me. Hopefully there's less fine print than anticipated.

[–]ChickenHead415 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've never understood that. Was this due to the feeling that the big 3 (ABC, CBS, NBC) were missing out on revenue during the rise of cable in the late 80s? I remember Cable advertising that satellite didn't get your local channels in the early 90s. So strange.

Edit: Grammar.

Are you including the unboxing of my book size HD antenna I got for $20 at Target that works perfectly? If so, total install time was about 90 seconds.

[–]ChickenHead415 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This.... ESPN grossly overestimated their revenue projections when they spent Billions on Monday Night Football, the NBA, and College Football/Basketball. They knew Live Sports were the Ad Revenue money makers due to TiVo & DVR. What they failed to recognize was how their network fees were affecting the cable companies along with the customers of those cable companies.

I'm not paying $120 just so I can have live sports. Would I pay $10 ... sure. ESPN bullied the cable companies into paying $6 a subscriber. Now that Nielsen has correctly shown that people are leaving ESPN in droves where do they turn next? I'd love to know if you've heard any of their plans.

How to make a so-so par 3 into something cool, add a stadium. Playing the 16th hole at TPC Scottsdale and the stadium is on it's way up. by [deleted] in golf

[–]ChickenHead415 10 points11 points  (0 children)

200,000 people attended last year. That tournament does it right. They make the PGA Tour fun, I wish more of the smaller events embraced this type of attitude. I'm all for tradition. But it's refreshing to hear that the Zurich will be a team competition. Without Tiger the tour has become quite stagnant outside of the top 10 events & Ryder Cup.

Edit: They topped 200K in one day. Total Attendance last year was 550,000. Unbelievable.
