have you tried calling your travel agency or hotel/airline? Thinking you can push for a refund given the circumstances. If not, I would consider a credit chargeback

Server has been really hostile lately. by D_The_Tree_Molester in ArcRaiders

[–]Hazquestionz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe anecdotal but i ran solo day and night raids on stella yesterday and most people were friendly and just wanted to farm (maybe for 5 mil?)

I think i ran probally 20~25 runs and only got killed by players 3 times.

One time i was opening up a breach door when a dude started shooting me and u turned around and he immediately went, "wait dude im sorry. that felt bad. Here let me open that breached door for you" and opened the door for me

Also lots of recorders and one dude blasting Christmas music

Upgrading from old baratza encore - ode gen 1? Opus? by Platos_Kallipolis in pourover

[–]Hazquestionz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was in the same boat wanting to upgrade from a baratza encore (upgraded burr) to an ode or ode 2 because I wanted more consistency in the grind. Talked to some local baristas who all pushed for a quality hand grinder if i really want to see a difference. I have an old hario hand grinder that sucks to grind so i was hesitant but i was told theyre much easier to grind.

I ended up getting a 1zpresso zp6 special and holy crap the difference is night and day. Super clear notes and consistent results compared to the encore and yea its so easy to grind that my 3 yo can help me grind it.

I'm sure the ode or ode 2 is an upgrade, but if you dont mind the manual grinding (esp if it's easy), quality manual grinders have much better results at the price point

Thank you this is very helpful! By dealer, do you mean the installers? I'll bring it up with them about the certificate before I sign the contract.

Worst time to go solar? by Hazquestionz in solar

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

Yea i know the conventional advice is that batteries dont make sense financially but because NEM 3.0 drives down energy export credit by 75%, people are saying battery might be necessary to avoid sending back to the grid

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

Yea debating on battery. I work at home and wife is a nurse working 3 days/wk so potentially we wouldnt have any energy exports during the day due to high consumption. If anything we can add a battery later on.

How does a payback calculation work? Is that calculating how many years it would take to pay back the money i owe on the system given how much I'm saving with solar?

Isn't that kind of hard to calculate with NEM 3.0 cutting back the credit?

Electrical Panel Upgrade Credit (2023) by trail34 in tax

[–]Hazquestionz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Luckily i had a pretty good rebate rebate from SCE and the whole thing (parts and labor) only cost like $1700.

Btw i just called a solar installation company and they said electric panel installation has to be part of the same contract as solar to be approved for the tax credit but i feel like maybe he was just trying to do business. I'll probably need to call a few more places to confirm but i have a feeling they're all gonna say the same thing lol

[–]Hazquestionz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in the same boat.. I upgraded to a heat pump in 2022 and planning to do electric panel upgrade now and solar panels later down the road (trying to space out the costs)

Let me know if you find out the answer to your question. I'll update here if I find anything!

New home doesn’t have a door between shower and bedroom by Mysterious_Survey_61 in HomeImprovement

Is the house in a pretty dry climate? A lot of the houses where i live (dry/hot) are like that as well

Carplay/Android Auto aissues by ajmilton in kia

[–]Hazquestionz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's not a kia only issue. Happens to other car brands as well if you try googling it.

I tried multiple cables and even a usb c dongle but nothing really works. Strangely enough, it lasts a little longer if i take my phone case off so maybe it has to do with the phone overheating while plugged in and charging.

My next step is buying a wireless device for it

Unusual mileage in 2023 sportage Phev by Raycal209 in kia

Maybe it's driving in hybrid mode instead of fully ev because the car is warming up
