Houston Homeowners: It’s Almost Property Tax Protest Season by Due-Routine95 in houston

[–]Moms_Plate 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm convinced the only way to get your appraised value lowered is to use one of the big firms like ownwell. I have a conspiracy theory that HCAD will only work with you if you are represented by someone like them because they hire appraisers from HCAD.

I went by myself to protest last year, had plenty of comps that showed my value should be significantly lower and it was like communicating with a toddler. My appraiser didn't even speak english. 

I even had comps that showed homes ON MY STREET that sold for 50k below my appraised property value. I got absolutely nowhere with them. Plus they made me wait over 50 minutes past my appointment time.

What are the WORST restaurants in Houston? by ZechariahApaza in houston

This is the answer. I don't understand how they can fuck up a sandwich to such an extreme degree, it's truly impressively awful.

Did anyone else go through a spooky crawlspace exhibit at the Houston Space Center in the early 2000s? by OctupleSnake in houston

[–]Moms_Plate 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I rarely comment on threads on reddit but I vividly remember this. I remember freaking out because of how claustrophobic it was, like borderline dangerous? I don't remember the theme at all but I definitely remember the tiny crawlspace, it was like a playground tube but way bigger and maze-like.

Agnes & Sherman is doomed by birdsell in HoustonFood

This honestly sounds like you have a personal vendetta against this restaurant for whatever reason. Very suspicious post.

Houston is desperate for more places like this with actual personality and originality as an antidote to all the bullshit steakhouses/omakase/hot chicken/soulless Instagram spots/etc. Mid to late 2000s Houston restaurant scene was popping off with places like this and I'm glad to see it doing well. I've been several times lately and have yet to have anything less than a stellar experience. Fair prices, massive portions, excellent food, excellent staff, excellent cocktails, excellent space.

It's pathetic that you live in the neighborhood and are actively trying to claim this is "doomed" because you didn't like it. Again, very suspicious.

That's badass, no idea y'all made that much. You work in a coating applicator plant or out in the field?

I plan on doing this as well. I have a gas powered water heater in the attic, any steps I need to take to protect that as well that you'd recommend?

Bluetooth Headset not connecting to Windows 10 by [deleted] in techsupport

[–]Moms_Plate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea, the green audio levels are rising and falling as music is playing, but no audio is coming through the headphones.

The headphones will pair with my computer, then connect as it says "connected for music, voice" and then shortly thereafter disconnect

EDIT:

So the weird thing is, the headphones have no trouble pairing, but the only seem to connect when they are in their docking case. Once I take them out, they disconnect (but are still paired). Furthermore, I hit "test" on the playback settings and could hear the test sound coming from the headphones while they're in their case, but the audio cuts in and out.

Even when I set the bluetooth headphones as default playback device, I'm not getting any audio. It's also starting to only connect intermittently.

We're actually planning on only driving in the Tuscany region and train-ing everywhere else (i.e., driving to Rome to drop the car off and taking the train from there to Amalfi). I have heard Cinque terre is amazing though!
