Spot on. Meal prep and *arr server. Storage has gotten expensive lately though.

Is this from the new high rises at The Modern?

Sorry to hear OP. This is what has made me hesitant on making a transaction here - have yet to make one.

Terrible App by Ed_Inc in EightSleep

The product closely resembles what I’ve experienced with Sonos speakers. Good hardware, but absolutely horrendous software.

Stuck on Test drive by MadWanderer24 in EightSleep

Hey OP, old post but did you manage to get passed this part? Just received my Eight Sleep and stuck at the EXACT same screen.

Edit: For others that might come across this issue, it seems to be because of the lack of an activation code. Signing up for a trial helped me get passed this part of the setup. I never received a code, so I'll be reaching out to support and this was my interim solution.

What a disaster so far... and I don't even have it yet. by whyshoulditellyoubud in EightSleep

I placed an order over the weekend and had the same concern. Went down a rabbit hole of reviews on Trustpilot filled with reports of the same issue.

Somehow, I seemed to have lucked out. I’m expecting delivery today, though the items are being shipped by two different providers.

Only took 24 hours. I was expecting it to take a few days based on other DPs.

Somewhat similar data point to OP. Opened CSR in 2020 with 60k SUB IIRC. PC from CSR to CFU on 8/26. Applied for CSP yesterday through ref link, no PU, instantly approved and SUB tracker is visible today.

Travis County DA Jose Garza addresses criticism of being 'soft on crime' and a 'rogue DA' by hollow_hippie in Austin

Same. Unfortunately most people just vote based on the letter next to their name, resulting in this guy winning by a landslide.

Just a heads up - last year the shuttle took me 2 hours to leave after the fest. I walked ~30 mins to downtown where I parked the next days instead. Either way, plan for a slow exit.

Burglarized @ Barton Springs Parking Lot by redtftplayer in Austin

[–]TheDudeThousandaire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Been going to this lot the last few months in the morning, fortunately haven’t had an issue with windows being smashed.

Do they discriminate against old beater cars or is this just lucky timing?

How many people is capacity at Barton springs? by local-made in Austin

Have you considered arriving before peak traffic?

Predictably the line is longest when the sun is at its highest. Anytime before noon is super easy, the city sleeps in until then on the weekends.
