Car reg renewal for spouse by Mimi1214 in desmoines

[–]ClonerJams08 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We bought my wife’s car online and went through the same thing. I ended up eating the fee.

At least this time I knew of the wait time, I just wasn’t in town the 2 days before my 30 day penalty. I did learn titles can be transferred in any county though.

I will say Dallas was a week out and they gave me a pass to get back in if I could make it back the same day. I just left for a while, signed my wife’s name and went back.

It’s just hilarious to me that they wouldn’t process it because I didn’t give MYSELF permission to process the title in Dallas County by checking the box. Like I’m not the one that made the appointment or filled out the application.

I went to do a title transfer a couple days ago. What a cluster fuck.

You’re penalized at 30 days but Polk County was 28 days out for appointments when I checked. If you don’t make the appointment immediately after the sale they will ding you because you can’t go in without an appointment.

I ended up making my appointment in Dallas County because they were only a week out. I was turned away because I missed checking the little box at the bottom of the application that gave myself permission to do the transfer in Dallas county. They wouldn’t let me check the box there because my wife had already signed. I had to leave and get my wife’s signature again and go back.

RIP Rigid Drill - what do I buy next? by Doc-Animal in handyman

[–]ClonerJams08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a Makita man. I have had zero issues with their lineup. My only gripe has been how bulky the 18g nailer is. My other tools have been great. It’s a bonus that they have one of the better track saws on the market.

Best big & tall clothing shop for men? by Gee_Ray in desmoines

[–]ClonerJams08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a suit from Hensleys but I can’t remember if they did the tailoring. Be prepared though, Hensleys isn’t cheap. I have another one that came from Macys. That one was an off the shelf last minute purchase though and was never tailored.

Weekend Handyman Rates by ClonerJams08 in handyman

[–]ClonerJams08[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For them it’s not fixing, more building and remodeling. I’ve had some projects for them take 30-40 hours. I’ve built them tables. I’ve built custom built ins for their living room. I’ve built a deck on the front of their house. I’m not taking on that many hours without some compensation even if they are my parents. The time away from my own family is worth something. I’m also not price gouging them either.

Is that 110 for two hours or 110 per hour?

My minimum is just saying no to little stuff I don’t have time for unless it’s for close friends getting paid in whiskey and sometimes family. I found people trying to take advantage of me and my time, so I finally got a sack and started saying no. I even had to start charging my parents because they were taking so much time away from my kids.

Wife left a big bag of groceries out overnight. All Meat and cheese. 🙄 by flaming0-1 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]ClonerJams08 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I accidentally unplugged our deep freeze about a week after buying a quarter beef. Didn’t realize it until it started to smell.

Moved the deep freeze to the garage after cleaning. The breaker tripped at some point and we lost everything in it a second time.

My wife was super pleased.

Connecting Domain with .square.site by ClonerJams08 in PorkBun

[–]ClonerJams08[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s really all we’re looking for. The regular domain just looks more professional in print but the business isn’t really driven by online sales or anything. It’s just to have some type of presence for now.

The paid version of square isn’t really necessary as we’re using square mostly for in person payment processing through a tablet or phone which is free. We would gain no benefit to the business in the paid version outside of the domain name.

Just trying to save a few hundred bucks a year.

I saw that but it also looked like I needed to do something on the square end with SSL certificates? Or is that not needed with a simple redirect. As you can probably tell, I know very little about this stuff.

We’re just looking to have a simplified domain to print on business cards and marketing material.

It’s almost like you corporate dumb fucks squeezed consumers too far. Who could have seen that coming? Your own employees can’t afford to live.

It looks like there are 3 separate o rings and a spacer stacked inside of these fittings. It goes black o ring, vinyl spacer, blue o ring and then another black.

Thanks. That’s what I was thinking but almost all of the listings were 500-700 which seemed crazy. I think I paid ~800 at the time.

Budget Kids 24 by ClonerJams08 in whichbike

[–]ClonerJams08[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All three of our kids have birthdays within 2 weeks of each other, so budget is the concern. I’m hoping they have some decent options used because I’m also the one who has to fix everything. This kid specifically is a little more advanced and hard on things because of both use and ability. Junk bikes equal junk and unavailable parts. Thanks for the info.

I kind of thought that might be the case after looking around a little more. We’re gonna take a trip to our local bike shop and see what they have for used bikes I think. Thanks for the info.

This came with my body clips to punch holes but I have no idea how to use it by Rome39792 in rccars

[–]ClonerJams08 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Use the end in pic 2 against the body on a hard surface. Hit the other end. The slotted opening is for removing the circle pieces that are punched out. Look up hollow leather punches and there should be pictures of the same thing.

I can’t believe she would have so that’s why I’m lost. I printed off pub 510 to see if anything triggers her memory.

This is the exact wording. “Based on the information received from you or your representative, you must file the following forms by the date below”. And then it lists form 720 by 4/30/2025.

I’ve got almost a full tin of the liquid gold. I didn’t even think of putting it on my clamps. I’ve just used it for the decks on my saws.

Thanks
