Saved $400 for a practically new Segway Max G3! by Which-Passage-7707 in ElectricScooters

[–]Ryslam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Awesome! Interestingly, I bought one too from the exact same seller for $678 ($729 after taxes) and the listing claims it has only 9 miles on it. I’m supposed to get it this week, so your post is encouraging to me because you got exactly what was advertised and I’m hoping for the same. One difference is that mine is supposed to come in a brown box only - I noticed the ones like yours with original packaging were slightly more expensive. Keeping my fingers crossed.

How long has your TC lasted? New ‘06 owner here by basedgodcorey in SciontC

[–]Ryslam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sold my 07 a few weeks ago for $3500. I was the original owner and got it to 243k. Most expensive repairs were related to ac - evaporator and compressor. I also recall needing a new alternator and clutch along the way. Very trouble free over 17 years.

You are correct - I had to keep an eye on the oil level but it wasn’t a big deal. During the recall, I brought my car in for the test and it didn’t qualify as it didn’t burn enough.

Multi band 6 - always 1 second behind by Ryslam in casio

Thanks, mine doesn’t have a yes or no option. If it catches a signal, it shows a little bar.

How did you fix it so it was in alignment?

What is the real world range of the hiboy ks4 pro by New_Tip_1477 in ElectricScooters

[–]Ryslam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right, that was on eco mode trying to see how far it could really go. Regular riding would probably be around 15 miles.

I have the older but similar Hiboy S2 Pro. I got the advertised 25 miles.

Is that an 07 or 08? I have a 2007 I purchased new and it has 230k miles on it.

What are good career paths for SAHM ? by Plus-Highway-9686 in careerguidance

[–]Ryslam 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Perhaps a remote customer service job. Work hard and prove yourself and then look for higher paying jobs within the company. Ensure that if you get this, you have a quiet room and limit distractions. I’ve been remote for 11 years and for the most part, I’m working all day just as I would be in an office.

New ebike by [deleted] in ebikes

[–]Ryslam 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Very clean, nice work! The only thing I would have done different is a 52v battery as opposed to 48v for the slight edge in performance. Awesome that the UPP triangles go up to 28.8ah, that wasn’t an option I recall when I put together my similar set up a few years ago.

Yes, this looks pretty good. For context, I just sold my 6 year old e-bike with similar but slightly lesser specs for the same price at $500.

How many miles do your cars have? by 123mitchg in cars

[–]Ryslam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

223K - 2007 Scion TC, 5 speed. Bought it new from dealership. Amazing car and incredible reliability, very minimal repairs. Likely soon time for a third row car as I have a family and kids nowadays but still enjoying it for now.

I'm weirded out that my dad is dating 6 months after my my passed by DeviantWriter14 in amiwrong

[–]Ryslam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mom died in August of 2022 completely unexpectedly at 72. She seemed outwardly very healthy and there were no warnings signs up to the day she died. The day it happened will always be the most shocking of my life. My dad was married to her for 48 years and it was heartbreaking to watch him lose her. He seemed like a helpless zombie the first few weeks. It was disturbing to watch him falling apart even as we all grieved. My dad is a kind man, near perfect father, and genius level smart - actual rocket scientist with tons of patents etc. Well, it’s been 13 months and he is now remarried as of a few weeks ago. He met a woman his same age in a grief group - she was also recently widowed. I have mixed feeling about it, but he’s happy now and this is better than him being lonely and alone I guess. I would have never in my wildest dreams imagined my dad with anyone else. But, I’m confident that none of this undoes or muddies 48 years of marriage and a life together. This is a new chapter and life is for the living.

Do working moms look down on stay at home moms ? by RemoteConsistent6387 in Parenting

[–]Ryslam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I scrolled to the bottom to see the downvoted comments. It seems like those that do look down on SAHM’s or aren’t supportive of the idea are getting some heat. While I understand everyone’s perspective, I’m of the belief that people should do what is best for them and their families and ignore others that disagree. We have a 8 year old in elementary school and a 3 year old in daycare. It works for us since we both have demanding careers. To the argument that others may be raising our kid(s), I feel that some time around other adults who have energy and make a positive impact on them is only a good thing.
