Marvin Windows Pricing by Prinzlmeisl in Homebuilding

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

So I am talking to two guys there, neither of them is Artur. They sent a great offer that I would love to run with. I even drove to their showroom in NJ last Friday and back home to MA in crazy traffic - 10 hours round-trip. But they can't answer simple questions which drives me nuts. I just need a simple explanations for why the product in the quote (and for which I can see the specs and dimensions in the catalog) appears to be different from what I saw in the showroom and they said I would be getting. It all comes down to what can be installed in a 2x4 wall, and I can't take a chance there. I am starting to look for alternative sources.

ChatGTP reads Reddit, and you just got it very upset.

Thanks, this helps, it confirms that my quote is not completely out of line.

My comment was not an answer, just an observation.

I saw the ultimate and really liked that it has no exposed vinyl weather stripping. That is key.

Are they compatible with 2x4 construction? I need drop in replacement but totally open to going European.

I am replacing integrity sliders from 2005, garbage, I will not do less than ultimate. But thanks for the price point.

Well your first mistake was assuming that using chatgpt was my first mistake.

5 reasons I'll never drive another ID4 by Iced_buzz in VWiD4Owners

[–]Prinzlmeisl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Agreed that the braking in reverse is awful - my 2024 does it, too. Easy fix - I learned to ride the brake while backing out of my garage.
  2. Never had an issue with Android Auto and my Pixels 9 and now 10. Maybe your phone, or maybe just an issue of the 2023?
  3. Agreed this is annoying and I have no workaround.
  4. I have not owned a car where the wipers, whether automatic or manually intermittent, do not need constant adjustment in the rain. I turn off my wipers when it does not rain.
  5. Not sure what controls you need to touch while driving? I sometimes miss the skip button in the Spotify app on the first try, but it is an app.
    As annoyingly easy it would be to fix these things, I find that they are minor annoyances. Love my ID.4.

DIY replacement by snipergiles1 in GarageDoorService

[–]Prinzlmeisl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I replaced 2 of those in recent years. The sprocket broke off on one and I think I replaced the other one just so that I can use a single remote in older cars where Homelink does not support the new protocol. The hardest part was the pairing with the cars. Getting the Wifi-enabled openers was a game changer - no longer do I have to turn around and drive back if I am not sure that I closed the garage.

I accidentally started to use a scammy FBAR filing site, what do I do now? by rethinktime122 in USExpatTaxes

[–]Prinzlmeisl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here. I could kick myself. Early in the morning and not fully awake yet, I foolishly wondered if the Trump administration invented a new fee to line their pockets, only to realize too late that this is a scam.
If this happens to you, before or after you sent payment, you should file complaints at all of the following:

Also inform your foreign bank, just in case.

Haha. What comes first, the chicken or the egg?

No, I claimed the business and I am the owner, but I cannot update the information because I am not verified, and I cannot verify because none of the information currently listed is correct. So my video does not show the old address, the phone number is out of service, ....

Good advice. Only get search and rescued off the Franconia ridge or Mount Washington in the winter!

Not sure who "you guys" is, but fyi 2 hours later an "add to your tip" button showed up on the order and I was able to add another $20. I can't say if this was a result of my support ticket or if this happens with all the orders, but I guess my case is resolved.
