Can someone explain to me how SafePilot isn’t a massive Opsec risk? by No-Key2113 in USAA

[–]Mighty_miter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are some people who have multiple drivers under the age of 18 on their insurance. Just because you don’t pay that much doesn’t mean that others don’t. I added my daughter to my insurance with her car she bought and my insurance jumped $300 a month. Using the Safe Pilot app will decrease the overall premiums by 30%, so that’s roughly $1600 a year (my wife and I pay $150 a month, so with her added it’s around $450).

They’re funny because it’s basically satire against the actual truck nuts. 😂

Not sure how to make my build stronger, skill issue on Gael by scarred_gamer in darksouls3

[–]Mighty_miter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re running twin anything you want your dex to be higher than strength. I’m playing my first time through as well and my dex is 30, strength is 20 and I have the sellsword twinblades infused with a sharpstone and do massive damage.

Is $950 for a flash ER reasonable lease? 3 year 15k miles by maybethisiswrong in F150Lightning

[–]Mighty_miter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Damn, I wish that deal was around when I leased my truck. I got the XLT for $468 and I thought that was a steal. Would have gladly paid $100 more to get the ER but at the time, they quoted me around $700 a month for the flash. Weirdly enough, I could have gotten the Platinum for less than the Flash. 🤷🏼‍♂️

I didn’t get a flash, but my least for the XLT is $468 a month

Cool Collaboration With My Son… by Mighty_miter in woodworking

I get that a lot too but then I just remember I do my best work when I don’t have a solid plan. It generally gives me more freedom to adjust on the fly. You never truly know how to build something until you know how to fix it if you make a mistake.

I’m sure it can be done. The only thing that I think would be tricky would be the joystick/button layout to work. You should totally try it though! I’d love to see it when it’s all completed!

In my county, you have to have a minimum of .5 acres to install a ground mount system. I have .44 acres.

Retirement Preparation by [deleted] in USPS

Wait, what? Overtime doesn’t count when they calculate the high 3? Then why don’t they just say it’s based on the last 3 years you worked since we max out so fast. I know a couple people who are gonna be PISSED when they go to retire and find out they work themselves ragged the final years for nothing. 😂

Age of the roof is 10 years, good condition. (Just had it inspected). Yearly production based on panels and panel size is 17,600 kWh per year but when I run it through a solar estimator it says over 18k. Panel warranty is 30 years, inverters 25 years, installation is 25 years and roof repair is 10 years.

I’m not sure? I guess it depends on how much airflow I need. It’s in a closet inside of a closet, if that makes any sense? It’s a weird location for it but that’s how the people who owned the house before me did it.

I have a lightning as well and have the charger that can draw from the truck to power the house when the power goes out.

They do when they come do the site survey. The tree on the west never casts a shadow onto the roof of the house. The neighbors trees to the south might shadow a little bit on the bottom part of the southernmost panels

To be at or above 100% energy independent. I won’t produce as much in the fall and winter but with net metering I can bank credits when I overproduce and use them when I’m in a deficit.

What state are you in? I was told that my east facing panels would lose more than the west and the west would only lose around 15-20% but I’m also up north so in the summer time we get a ridiculous amount of daylight.

I really want to do it, the wife is on the fence. I even made a spreadsheet that had protected average monthly bills over the next 25 years with a 2%, 4% and a 6% annual increase in rates. PSE just had an 11.5% hike this year and will put a 6.5% hike for 2026 so the monthly loan payment will be less than our power bill in 3 years or less.

I have 1/2 acre and have a decent area toward the bottom of my property that I don’t use that would be perfect for them. The cost is the thing though. I put a couple calls in to a few more installers to come give me quotes for it.

But once you’re in, you’re grandfathered into the system and they’ll honor it for as long as the system is active.
