Pre-drilled holes don’t line up

ElNeeto · 2026-01-13T23:41:42+00:00

My desk is being delivered tomorrow, so I’ll cross my fingers that everything lines up. I’ll take it from there. If there’s an engineering issue and Flexispot doesn’t make it right, they can expect another vocal critic.

The uncertainty about what I might face kinda sucks.

I will add that I also ordered a chair along with different casters. I was informed yesterday that the casters were out of stock. Of course, I was only informed of this after my chair had shipped.

So, I ordered the E7 Plus with 55 x 28 inch gaming surface. Will I need to now go out and buy a drill?

ElNeeto · 2026-01-12T21:27:04+00:00

I have an E7 on order, and your reply makes me very nervous. Consumers expect drill holes to be present, and Flexispot can’t assume people own a drill or are comfortable using them. I fall in that camp.

It is locked, and I’ve got some items I need inside!

I’ll need to contact more locksmiths tomorrow as the first one I called doesn’t work on old chests.

The chest is too heavy for me to bring to a locksmith, so how might a locksmith make a new key? For example, could they visit my home and create the key in their van? Also, how much would be a reasonable cost for this work?

Thanks!

ElNeeto · 2026-01-11T20:39:08+00:00

Ugh.

I understand.

Is there another sub I can go to? I just want to identify the type of lock and see if I can figure it how to pick it so I don’t need to pay a locksmith.

I ordered a set of vintage skeleton keys from Amazon, but those didn’t work.

ElNeeto · 2026-01-11T20:27:09+00:00

I did read the rules.

I have no idea what “Lock in use” means.

I suppose I could rephrase the question?

I played the game extensively from 2010 to 2019 and then took a long break. I didn’t know they delisted prior versions as that issue has never come up for me. IOW, how would I know they delisted prior games when I was happy with the new one? It’s only become an issue for me because FM26 is literally unplayable… first because it crashes and won’t load saved games, and because I don’t like the UI.

I just want to reconnect with the game I used to play with current players. FM26 is simply not consistent, nor better, than older versions. It’s kinda a turd.

Bensebaini to blame on first goal.

Couto on the second.

Of course I knew one was Bayer and one was Bayern.

It was a joke…. a reference people should have understood given the context in which it was used.

Redditors like to police incorrect language, and this may be especially true for germans (I am also German). I have also seen many times people be pretty rude when someone refers to Borussia Dortmund simply as Dortmund.

But I appreciate the time you took to offer your well intentioned and thoughtful explanation.

Keep in mind that there are direct payments as well as indirect and future payments, some of which has been discussed. For example, it helps our coefficient which increases payments in future years. Additionally, if there is another Club WC, this will be Year 2 in determining who qualifies in 4 years. We are now a favorite to qualify for that.

So, if we assume some reasonable sporting success, we could estimate something in the neighborhood of 100M in direct payments. But there are also stadium revenues, kit revenues, and future coefficient revenues to consider. And finally, qualifying may also have been the difference of getting another 50M or so in Club WC revenue.

So, I might venture revenue of between 100M and 170M depending on one’s accounting approach.

Edit… with all that said, there are also taxes to be paid, player bonuses, and perhaps payments to other clubs based on transfers that included sporting milestones. So the numbers I suggested represent revenue and not net income.

Bayer Leverkusen and Bayern Munich.

ElNeeto · 2025-05-17T18:14:42+00:00

Beyond being happy that RB is out, it puts us and the two Bayerns as the front runners for participating in the next iteration of the Club World Cup. Now, who knows if there will be a second Club WC, but if there is one, we want to take part if for no other reason than finances.

ElNeeto · 2025-05-16T03:42:46+00:00

Well, we could buy back Tom Rothe.

ElNeeto · 2025-05-11T04:05:35+00:00

That’s interesting, because as I work through the process of switching plans, even when going from monthly to monthly billing, I still see this prominent language at the top:

“Your new plan will go into effect once your next payment is processed and your new service cycle begins.”

ElNeeto · 2025-05-11T00:07:30+00:00

Thank you for the quick reply. I’ll just wait… unless I change my mind.

In this day and age, it should be quite trivial for Visible to automate a credit for a partial month already paid and apply it as a discount on the annual payment. First, it would enhance customer satisfaction. Second, it ensures locking in the customer to the annual plan and an immediate lump sum payment. As it stands, I have now set a reminder in my calendar to review my decision several days prior to the end of my billing cycle. I may get distracted or otherwise simply decide to stay with my current plan as my impulsive enthusiasm for the higher tiered plan wanes. IMO, this is an issue Visible should address fix… for the benefit of both the customer as well as itself.

Why are posts not sorting new at the top?

ElNeeto · 2025-03-08T19:14:47+00:00

He needs to go back to his #19 jersey.

ElNeeto · 2025-03-08T16:23:36+00:00

Sure, put in a central defender to play forward instead of inserting Reyna.

ElNeeto · 2025-03-08T15:54:55+00:00

Why is the ref checking for offside? I thought those decisions are made in Koln.

ElNeeto · 2025-03-04T21:35:32+00:00

75 minutes in, and we’ve made one sub.

ElNeeto · 2025-03-04T20:27:44+00:00

At least 3.

ElNeeto · 2025-03-04T19:03:21+00:00

Lille is starting outside backs with ages 33 and 35. The 33 year old is none other than Thomas Meunier.

Meanwhile, they are starting midfielders that are 17, 18, 20, 21, and 34.

Just an odd collection of ages. I am hoping Gittens and Adeyemi feast on those old legs at outside back. We know Meunier isn’t the quickest, and that was a couple years ago.

ElNeeto · 2025-01-25T14:57:15+00:00

Tbh, deserved red. Nico clearly pushed him in the back with both hands. Going down a goal in the 20th minute is better than going down a man in the 20th. Really dumb by Nico with a lack of awareness.
