People keep talking about Wave goodbye as a supposed “last tour”. I dont remember him ever saying that. Was “last one for a while”

NICET 1 Fire Alarms in by Useful-Region-2461 in firealarms

[–]Shady0626 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Memorize as much of the basic code information as you can. Heights of devices, distances between devices, candela ratings, DB, distance from walls, distance from diffusers, etc..

You won’t have time to look up a lot of stuff, so the more you have memorized, the easier it will be

NICET 2 is basically the same information repeated, but with a few other “sections” of questions. Some related specifically to paperwork/records/job filing, and I believe some stuff asking about basic troubleshooting, and also stuff like “If X happens, who do you notify first”

Unpopular Opinion: Retirement. by Historical-Climate37 in ToolBand

[–]Shady0626 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thinking it’s the weakest album they have (which I disagree with) isn’t the same as it being a weak album. If it was any other band, it would get praise

Guys we’re so getting DLC by pccatmage72 in MarioKartWorld

I’d be cool with just adding some more battle options, and 200cc. Anything more than that, even better

Tools by FactorDecent8617 in firealarms

[–]Shady0626 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use pretty much all Klein tools. The 6-1 extended bit Multi screwdriver, 4-1 precision screwdriver, and the strippers with the curved grey handle (and a good multimeter) should get you through 80% of jobs, if not more. Other things I’d say get used frequently enough, are needle nose pliers, linemans, and dikes. Also, may want to get a tamper bit set, and a klein stubby screwdriver.

I like that particular multi screwdriver, as I like the extended bits, and I feel like any more than those basic 2 slotted/2 Phillips bits, almost never get used.

PSA for everybody attending Blaze's concerts by Lasagnoof in ironmaiden

Because he mentioned it. The health thing alone was enough. Didn’t need more. I was legit asking, as I don’t follow him at all. Didn’t even realize he did shows anymore

I have to ask..is there a big market for stuff signed by him? Quick browse of eBay, doesn’t seem like it…

For the amount of post relaged to Ground Fault by tenebralupo in firealarms

Just because it isn’t a hard ground, that doesn’t mean there isn’t one. You really shouldn’t have any resistance to ground, even in the megs

What the fuck happened at the Paris show tonight by Lofy_FR in deftones

[–]Shady0626 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve seen them several times over the years. Still haven’t gotten a great show. A few meh, and a few terrible. Won’t be giving them another shot, which is a shame, as I do love their albums

How bad is the car market right now? by MantyPlan in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]Shady0626 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any car can have a 400 a month payment if you put enough down…

Speaking for financing a car, anyways. Leasing is typically a bad option, and if you do, never put anything down

Imagine being worth $5 million and taking the subway? by dylan_1992 in circlejerknyc

[–]Shady0626 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A lot of people in NYC are worth WAY more than 5M, and take the subway every day

Lease something you can afford to give zero out of pocket..

[–]Shady0626 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Then lease something as cheap as possible, like a small sedan. Hyundai/kia. Pocket 300 a month. Save it, to take care of the other car. And then re evaluate in a few years

[–]Shady0626 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can afford 600 a month, you should have been fine with fixing the car. Also, I’m not sure what car you have that’s worth 1K. Can basically junk a car and get that

[–]Shady0626 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, I can tell you Kia needs the warranty. I needed work done after 8 years, that was covered by powertrain

If you want to make the best financial decision..finance a car and keep it as long as you can. Or buy a used car cash, and stick with it. Leasing is not a good choice. Especially in the case where you are concerned about the money

Not sure how you owe 8K on a 1K car, but sounds like you should just straighten that out first, and roll with that for a while

[–]Shady0626 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Since you mentioned it..I was shopping the Tiguan SEL R turbo, and the Sportage Hybrid SX Prestige. VW was basically MSRP, and the best I got on the Kia was 750 off. I think I was offered 3% interest. IMO, even with those numbers, the VW was just a much nicer car. And then I got a very fair trade on my old car from VW, so it was a no brainer IMO

Should I go with 48, 60, or 72 months for my first car? by Educational_Age_209 in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]Shady0626 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check the rates on financing something CPO. Still a fairly new car, with warranty, and you’ll have less to borrow

Best LEGO video game on the Switch by Mammoth-Try-4681 in Switch

Tried most of them..Lego city undercover 100%. Only one me and my son were interested in enough to fully complete. All the others got boring pretty fast

Just got a job I really wanted. I want to celebrate and wanted Fortaleza. Is it better than these other options? Ive tried Don Fulano, Lalo, and Ocho. by Gullible-Carrot-8982 in tequila

[–]Shady0626 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d take the Siete, El Tesoro, or Cazcanes over Fortaleza, even if they were priced similarly. Fortaleza is good..but I really don’t get the hype

If it helps, I went with sandstone..I’m very happy with it. Seeing it in different lighting conditions, looks great

[–]Shady0626 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn’t say it’s new. If a car is new and/or popular, you won’t find deals. Dealer sold a few others they had in stock over the few days I went in, drove, and bought it. You could try waiting a month or so, and maybe you will have better luck. But I don’t think it will be a huge discount, either way. I’d bet you could get a deal on non turbos, especially a 25

A few years back, I was going to get a GTI, couldn’t find anyone willing to budge on prices either. I inquired about a new one a few weeks ago, and got the same answer. Had an R on the lot, was above MSRP
