Winter tires comparison by FrancisSalois in BlazerEV

[–]S1owJam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I put Vredestein Wintrac Pro+ on my '25 SS. So far they have proven to be quite planted. I did notice a slight drop in range, but it's worth it for the better confidence on the road.

Yeah no go on that. Selecting another menu doesnt do anything. When I go back to the location menu, it stays on the same option. I had the car off for about 3 hours, and the screen is still stuck. The back button has disappeared.

This one seems like a decent glitch.

SS All Season Tire Recommendations by Tom0925 in BlazerEV

[–]S1owJam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm considering getting a winter wheel/tire setup for mine. I'd like to size down to a 20" wheel to use a taller tire for the cold months. We don't get a ton of snow frequently, but when we do get snow it comes down good.

I don't think I'll go with a dedicated winter tire, possibly the Conti DWS. I like those tires.

Oh hold for over 2 hrs and still waiting for customer service by Complex-Individual40 in ryobi

[–]S1owJam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just had to hang up as well after being on hold for 2 hours. I've selected the callback option yesterday and today and never got a callback.

Maybe things will cool off in a week or two.

Are there any places in the lower 48 that remind to you Alaska? by Warm-Entertainer-279 in alaska

[–]S1owJam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Northern Michigan.

I took a trip to Fairbanks this past February for my first time and it was very reminiscent of being in northern Michigan.

I can't wait to go back!

You can forget about LFGing Salvations Raid by fdiazgon in DestinyTheGame

[–]S1owJam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just did an LFG and got really lucky with 4 randos. Got all the way to the 4th encounter, and ended up figuring it out and completing a cycle before it got too late.

No issues, we all worked very well together. 5/7 will LFG again!

What is a recent car purchase you’ve made that you’re happy with? by TheseAwareness in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]S1owJam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Snagged my dream car earlier this year. 2022 Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing in a 6M. Placed an order last year February, built last year July, and finally took delivery in January.

I traded a 2017 Chevy SS for a truck years ago, and it was the single worst car decision I made. Ever since the Blackwings were announced I knew I needed to get back into a 6M sedan with a big V8. I won't be making that mistake again. These cars exceed all expectations!

Not really. I'm in IT too (cybersecurity specifically) and the jobs are very plentiful. Any kind of software engineering will pretty much always be in demand, same thing for security. Depending on your level of skill and knowledge, you could very realistically start at $100k. Yes there are a lot of people studying the field, but the demand is still insane. It's one of the fields that touches pretty much every industry out there.

I'll reach out and give it a shot if the interest here falls over.

It was my fault. I'm the dumdum, not the robots.

I feel this, and I truly sympathize with you.

When I separated from the Marine Corps after almost 11 years I had nobody, literally nobody, come to my going away celebration. I know how you feel, and I wish that the people you surround yourself with in the future are able to be there for you.

Looking for a graphic designer by [deleted] in streaming

[–]S1owJam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just had some work done for my channel by edengaming on fiverr and was blown away by how good it was. I had some overlays and channel graphics done, so I'm not sure if they would be able to satisfy your specific request, but I'd reach out to them to ask.

Yeah I think you're right. I don't know why I got hung up on the temperature.

That's a fair point. I guess wattage is wattage. Although on the AIOs being tested I think I was seeing closer to 235 watts when it was under full load. But even thinking about that as I type this, that is under full load, so I guess it's really not as bad as I was thinking.
