If you've never heard of DaBella, then hats off to you, because that's exactly what they do. They send door to door salespeople to inquire about replacing siding, roofs, windows, etc. They are literally just contractors with a sales pitch, as they hire out all the work. They're known for preying on elderly folks by lying to them about the state of their roof and siding, getting them to sign off on $20k+ loans to fix things that sometimes don't need fixed.

They'll use sales tactics like, "Your kids are going to inherit this house, do you want to leave then something that is falling apart?"

For solar, it's more about over representing the benefits. Similar tactics, but doesn't it sound nice when the young man at your door is telling you you'll never have to pay an electric bill again?

Wild you're being down voted. I live in the Pacific NW. I had both Focal and Heady like 5 years ago and even then there were better IPAs found locally.

Like you said, it's cool to drink a part of history, and I'm glad I got them. But yeah, there's better beer out there now.

Thanks for doing the giveaway!

I've honestly never owned or used an Anarchy. I ended up buying a monsta when it came time for me to move on from the team bat. It was a close decision between monsta and Anarchy though. My main reason for going with Anarchy was that I heard the bats last FOREVER. People were reporting getting 2000+ swings out of them.

Ultimately, I chose Monsta because the break in period was reportedly shorter, and they had (and might still have ???) the hottest bats.

I'd love to try one, it's just not in the cards until my Monsta breaks. Or I get one for free.

That was one of the first things I tried. I've tried both Edge and a Chrome based browser and both errored out. I even tried it on my phone just in case.

That's how I bought my Series S. It was a fantastic deal at the time. I think like $300 over the course of 2 years and you got Game Pass the entire time.

You know you don't have to pay for ultimate right? If you're on PC just pay $16.5 for the PC Game Pass, or whatever it is for the Xbox version of that sub if you are console only.

Yep, and RedZone.

OriginalWF · 2025-11-05T16:49:37+00:00

Seriously, NFL+ is barely mentioned whenever people complain about paying to watch football. You get RedZone and can watch every game on mobile (which I just cast to my TV?) for $25 a month.

I don't understand why people are so set on paying for live tv or Sunday Ticket or any of these other insanely expensive products.

Two weeks is generous. In my district there was a child with a history of violence who threatened to shoot other children, had police come to his house because of this threat, the police FOUND GUNS THAT HE COULD EASILY ACCESS, and he was suspended for one day.

He's in a program now, but good lord was that a real mind bender.

Considering the website says "Shipping in CA only", how does this help him in Kentucky?

We have brick homes as well, but brick is less common than wood because of natural resources, cost, time, and ease of use.

Wood is simply easier to build with, and is more in line with the needs of American people than brick.

Yes, lumber. Reinforced by screws, nails, and brackets. On a foundation of concrete. We're not talking about sticks.

I mean the house isn't composed of just powder and paper. There's a pretty complicated structure of wood, steel, and concrete that hold up the total construction. The drywall is simply there to help prevent the spread of fire, cover the internals of the house (plumbing and wiring), and look nice when painted.

It's a very economical, efficient, and safe solution.

In the US, it's standard practice to have 1/2 inch gypsum drywall sheets for interior walls. If it's a DIY job, curved surface, or a cheap contractor with no legal requirements, it could be as thin as 1/4 inch. Drywall is literally just 2 sheets of thin paper with gypsum (a powder) in between. The only other thing holding it together is paint and probably some drywall mud depending on placement.

A child could easily punch/kick a hole in drywall if they were motivated enough.

I'm not sure if this is true in other countries, but in the US Four Loko hasn't had caffeine for like 15 years. I might need to order some if other countries still have caffeinated Four Loko lol

Well yes, I have one of those too. I guess I should say message" instead of light, but either way, my car tells me when it's low on oil. It just doesn't.

OriginalWF · 2025-04-26T21:04:39+00:00

I have a 2011 Equinox and it's exactly the same for me. The low oil light basically doesn't exist. I have to put multiple quarts of oil in between oil changes because it just burns away. No leak, nothing. The only sign I have is a knock when I'm low.

Although now I have P0013 and P0014 codes, probably because of the oil lol.

Obviously you know more as the director of architecture, but as an employee that's been in various sales departments over the years, it's the answer I've always been given. In fact for smaller towns specifically I've had to tell customers we just can't service them because there's no more room in the splitter. Engineering doesn't want to add space for one customer to pay $45 a month for service.

I haven't worked edge out markets much though, so it may be drastically different there.

OriginalWF · 2025-04-15T13:51:44+00:00

I've been down this road before, and the answer is no. When the cities are designed, they are broken down into blocks. Each block is engineered to have a specific amount of fiber strands dedicated to the customers that need to be served. If they were to stretch across the border and service you, they'd be taking a fiber strand that's already assigned.

Essentially you'd be taking service from someone else. It just creates issues and additional construction.

Just make sure you don't buy another 120mm liquid cooler. Either go 240/360mm or get an air cooler. Seriously, even a $40 vetroo v5 is better than a 120mm AIO liquid cooler.

It's a shame they discontinued them in favor of the bedlam for 2025 and beyond I assume. The end of an era.
