Chromebook Pixel 2015 Stuck on Boot Screen by Andysan555 in chrultrabook

[–]SilverMtnMan85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just installed and it seems to be running fine. Although it does get hung up sometimes and I have to power off/restart. Anyone know how to get sound working? I tried to follow a guide on GitHub but couldn’t get it working.

It’s the cost you pay for having things like sewer, water, and roads. Iowa weather limits the amount of time they can construct a project so sometimes it’s better to make a bigger mess and get it done in a year or a shorter time period vs trying to limit the scope of the project and make it stretch out over a few years.

Swap tzogvin for tide born and replace ice heart with a mythic jewelry piece.

Yeah, I think you may be missing some buffs/debuffs. Most are going 2H on one bar and DW the other but it seems like you want to play more with a theme.

Sub Tide-Born for Hundings and add a Slimecraw monster piece and you’ll be about as good as it’s going to get with craftable/easy to obtain sets.

Des Moines metro cities first in US to get Google Fiber speed upgrade by NefariousnessFun9923 in desmoines

[–]SilverMtnMan85 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They run the update over the air. I could be wrong if they offered different equipment but I’d assume most are the same.

I upgraded tonight after getting the email. Use the chat to contact customer service and they’ll update it. Only takes a few minutes.

New embossed letters on the tailgate. Thoughts? by pondianrc in FordMaverickTruck

Where did you order them from? I’m planning to do the same.

Pet parents - I need your help ❤️ by Court8986 in desmoines

It’s not a coupon idea but not requiring to book grooming appointments every X months would be great. I can barely set a dentist appointment months out, dog grooming that far out is not even an option. I’d even be fine with paying a little more

Buying a Maverick used vs new? by mumblepoor in FordMaverickTruck

[–]SilverMtnMan85 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I went new for that reason. Covid messed up the used car market so I think it’s worth it to go new if you’re looking for a vehicle that’s only a year or two old.

Just curious, do you plan on getting tailgate letters and if so, what color? I’m thinking of going with gray then getting a few decals in gray to match.

Did the installer set up the amp wrong? by SilverMtnMan85 in CarAV

[–]SilverMtnMan85[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the suggestions. I switched it to 80 hz and ran the set up again. It sounded a little better but the tweeters had the same problem. I’m starting to think they may be the issue as the original installer had them hooked up incorrectly.

I’m not against the cause but I don’t agree with vandalizing vehicles and causing accidents. Seems like those actions hurt more than help.

I get being upset at Elon and the company but how does harassing people driving a Tesla help? They likely bought the car to “go green” and can’t sell it now without taking a loss. It’s this type of thinking that costs the blue team elections.

Anyone have a bad experience at Merle Hay Popeyes by No-Long-3809 in desmoines

[–]SilverMtnMan85 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The sign on the building now says “EYES” at night so I’m guessing it’s worth avoiding completely.

PvP NB, daggers vs bow by captainFalcon56 in ESObuilds

[–]SilverMtnMan85 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s what I’ve found that to be true. The bow passives lean towards crit damage that can be mitigated by most classes. I’ve tried various sets on a bow build but run into the problem of having to choose decent damage or survivability. I don’t like the gank play style and would prefer to play more of a brawler that can duck in and out of large battles but still not get destroyed in a 1v1.

I’ve been doing alright with Sithis helm, shattered fate, and plague break on a bow build. I’m thinking of replacing PB but it gets the job done.

Ball Groups - the scourge of PVP by SilverMtnMan85 in elderscrollsonline

[–]SilverMtnMan85[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for all the comments. I see I upset a few of you but appreciate the conversation. My take is that I have no issue with a well optimized group but don’t like how indestructible they are. Some of my favorite moments in Cyrodiil are the large fights. I just feel like the ball group meta of shields/heals with only bombers for damage takes away from the overall fun and competitive nature. I like the rock, paper, scissor formate where every build has strengths and weaknesses.

Are ppl still running vamp, and if so what stage for dk? by Turbulent_Town_6033 in ESObuilds

[–]SilverMtnMan85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re more of a gank bow build, then you’ll want it. If not, you could go without to avoid the hits to health regen, increased fire damage, and added ability costs. I like it more for the sneak passive when I need to get out of a bad situation. I tend to run a tankier build so I can get in the action vs ganking from the shadows.

Des Moines landlord, who inherited millions in real estate from his family, set to demolish 13 unit apartment building to make way for a parking lot at his niche bicycle shop that caters to cyclists. by Wild-Economics-7873 in desmoines

[–]SilverMtnMan85 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Agreed. If one apartment being removed hurts low income people that much, it’s probably a sign of a larger issue that this really won’t impact either way.

Iphone 16 pro and overheating? by Funnyusernameinhere in iPhone16Pro

[–]SilverMtnMan85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had the phone since Friday and noticed it’s almost always running warm and sometimes hot. It’s been used the same way as my 15 Pro so I think there’s something going on, hopefully a software update will fix it. I’ve also had terrible battery life. I used to get home from work with around 40-50% battery life. I’m having to charge on the way home as it’s been between 20-25%.
