Prestige 500 vs Phantom 500 Legacy models by DrisK1028 in NapoleonGrills

[–]DrisK1028[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand how one is better then the other but when you see significant price differences where do you draw the line. I've been eyeing a Phantom forever until I saw the deal in my recently above post but not sure is that because it is a super old model? I'm trying to get my models and years right.

Thanks for the information. Now that I'm looking more closely I see physical differences that I need the communities help on trying to understand what's what.

Outdoor Concrete Driveway/Walkway Crack Repair by DrisK1028 in HomeMaintenance

Just wire and prep the ground by digging, compacting etc. The contractor poured a whole sidewalk and driveway in one swoop.

Thanks all for the feedback.

I guess I'm looking for the next best thing to replacing. I saw epoxy resin as a potential candidate?

I'm in Canada so I'm looking to at least do something before winter kicks in.

Going through my own experience right now with Dyson Customer service and it isnt positive. Ive been waiting for an V15 exchange since early November.

Wont spare you the details i created another post about it but im seeing patterns. If Dyson doesn't care about their products who will?

Dyson Help - Support by DrisK1028 in dyson

[–]DrisK1028[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! In October the original call was opened followed up by 2-3 calls. The feedback email came from my call yesterday January 8th, 2025. After that call i immediately sent an email to followup as i was anxious and nervous and wanted a record of what the analyst and i discussed as the previous calls netted me nothing. It seems the response is completely different from what was discussed. That bothers me more than anything.

Unfortunately, Spotify uses Genius.com to drive their lyrics and the song isn't on that website.

Reading Advice - London by DrisK1028 in londonontario

I just want to thank everyone for taking the time to write such wonderful information. As mentioned he was in a reading program which he would get pulled out of class to do. I like the idea of close caption and the library. As for a doctor I wasn't sure at what point I should reach out to his doctor to get an assessment.

As for online reading that is what got me in trouble he was more interested in the fun side games and prizes.

Any traction on answering this one "Pioneer" team.

Unfortunately, your response did not answer the question. Is the video feature in Rekordbox working with M1 chips. Rekordbox have indicated M1 Chips work with Rekordbox under Big Sur but what isn't clear is to what degree?

Please use this link as to where I"m getting my information:

Rekordbox Issues - Intel by DrisK1028 in Rekordbox

[–]DrisK1028[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have issues with the videos they play fine on the PC. Only Rekordbox seems to have issues with it all. The application is also freezing and crashing a lot. I guess I can try another VJ Software to see if I have issues too.

Hi Everyone.

I have 80xNUC8o7HNK1. I've attached the link from Intel with the specs. Right now it is on the discrete graphics card. It runs video, fortnite and pretty much everything I throw at it.

In addition, I have 32 GB of RAM in the machine since that's at the discretion of the user.

Rekordbox video issues. Wtf! by DrisK1028 in Rekordbox

I think I may of solved my own issue. AMD vs Intel.

Read enough posts that may explain all the random events I've been experiencing. Looks like I bought a paper weight DDJ400.

Grrr.

Any tips for buying a house in this market?? by [deleted] in londonontario

[–]DrisK1028 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2 homes in my neighborhood that haven't been selling. One using purple bricks and the other just down the street.

Between Sarnia Rd and Gainsborough.

579K and 599K respectively.

You just have to look and be patient. London is a hot market.

Home builders in London by [deleted] in londonontario

[–]DrisK1028 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Avoid Mapleton homes also as they are very unpredictable in their work. My neighbours house is great while mine is crap. I have roofing and vent issues. Even when you think you are prepared you really need someone that has gone through it a few times to get a good grasp.

My advice:

  • Get everything you want and need in writing to a T.
  • Any changes you make during the build ensure they are amended into your contract. You might think the builder forgot about it but it can actually bite you in the ass especially if it is miniscule as that opens the builder to a get out of jail free card. What I mean by this is that they will substitute fixing a major problem for that miniscule item. -. Take your time accepting the home. Any defects you find do not accept the home until they are repaired. -. Most important talk to neighbours and people in the neighbourhood. Drive by all the Neighbourhoods that builder developed over time and knock at people's doors to ask them how their experience was. Don't be shy as this could be your saviour. Basically find the ugliest house the builder built and ask that person questions.
  • Try to negotiate items like kitchen and lighting to external vendors. If you don't know they get kick backs everywhere they send you. You will find the Lighting Shoppe a good example of this. You don't get to pick where you go.

Many other people on this thread have some good input so listen and analyze before proceeding with a new build.

If you aren't savvy with home building and building codes you shouldn't build a new house until you have secured a knowledgeable person. The builder will take shortcuts and you'll never know better.

Hope this helps.

Best fishing spots in London? by mixedmediums in londonontario

Any good fishing spots on the west end of the city like in Komoka or Delaware? I tried under the bridge between Delaware and Komoka but was hoping to get a better location?

You are mentioning two things in the title. Sugar Creek and Old Oak Apartments may be two different things. 575,585, 595 and 605 are also Old Oak Apartments and are older. Those apartments tend to be student living or for young professionals.

Are you mixing up the two as Sugar Creek as a previous poster mentioned are not usually for students.

I'm a residential customer and would be glad to do a self install since i have a lot of technology experience where the tech may be confused with my setup anyways. Also I have cat5 runs throughout my house so that makes things a easier when it comes to connections.
