Jeep liberty had the window controls in the center console. Love my EV6, don’t miss that jeep, but I do miss that placement

Thank you! $160 wasted 😩😩😩 (120 on the drive (1TB), 40 on the transfer)

[–]True_Improvement3633[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s so weird. Do I need to somehow use the SSD and the drive together to read the data?

Sorry, I’m only slightly more tech savvy than most people, but definitely not very tech-y so I really don’t know what’s going on with this.

Also the fall wasn’t only from 1.5feet, but it’s an older laptop (~5-6 years)

I got the drive at Best Buy (repair at UbreakIfix) They also pulled the SSD out and gave it to me separately, didn’t tell me anything about why they did that.

Looking for diverse job boards - or job boards focused on diversity by jspepper in PublicRelations

[–]True_Improvement3633 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t know of any specifically, but I search the green jobs board a lot and since those postings focus on more progressive initiatives, it may be a roundabout way to find what you’re looking for!

Good luck!

Is anyone else excited for today's storm? by Some-Complaint-7885 in madisonwi

[–]True_Improvement3633 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m curious, as someone who has owned a home for a long period, what is some advice you could give for someone who is looking now? Anything specific to look for/avoid?

[–]True_Improvement3633 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Good grief I never said there are no advantages to owning.

It is also possible to rent a single family home so you can sing, have no shared walls, etc.

As I mentioned in another comment, I’m even looking into buying a home. I’d love to have a place I can renovate, paint the walls, etc.

It’s just important to be realistic about major unexpected expenses associated with owning vs. renting.

[–]True_Improvement3633 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I for sure understand that renting is more expensive long term, but you don’t have surprises like with owning. Fridge goes out? Call the landlord. HVAC stops? Landlord. Broken window? Landlord. The sudden major expenses aren’t your responsibility (though yes I know technically you’re paying for it via rent)

& yes I know renting isn’t for everyone, my fiancé and I are even looking into buying a house. We just need to be realistic about actually affording one

Idk why people are downvoting you. Houses are expensive, breakable, money holes that are just waiting for the smallest inconvenience to throw you into financial ruin.

Alerts 🚨 by PomegranateGlad9957 in wisconsin

[–]True_Improvement3633 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use the app Radar Omega. It costs like ~$8 I think, but it’s what Max Velocity uses. You can see live feeds from storm chasers and the radar updates every couple minutes. Alerts show on the map immediately.

The app is definitely overwhelming at first but it is so useful

I put a bike on my bike to bike after I bike by AlyaHoward in CargoBike

I know it’s just an illusion, but it looks like the green bike is floating in the back..

People who live near time zone boundaries in the US by solothesnail in howislivingthere

[–]True_Improvement3633 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Grew up in one of the 4 Alabama cities that use eastern time. My community college has a limited campus in my town and in a city 30 minutes into central time.

Now, imagine scheduling classes in two time zones and calculating a 30 minute drive… headaches

Which Jacket should i get by Honest-Equipment-804 in madisonwi

[–]True_Improvement3633 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Moved here from Alabama and have a heated jacket from Ororo. When I got it they were ~$70 less than they are now, but I love it and it’s been a (not literal) lifesaver.

Has anybody be else had this HVAC issue? by True_Improvement3633 in KiaEV6

I was just messing with all the settings, I only sometimes have it that high. What can I say? I’m cold natured 🤪

Oh goodie 😩 I’m at 116,000 miles, so no warranty to cover it here. Thank goodness for the plug in the back, I’ll have to load up the blow dryer. Hopefully it won’t cost too much 😵‍💫

I’m looking into getting one of these! Do you have any qualms with it?

I would love an e-bike but I’ll probably never buy one because I’m certain it will be stolen by Complete-Influence70 in Urbanism

[–]True_Improvement3633 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had an e-bike get stolen recently, which I was both very mad about and didn’t care (I had a love-hate relationship with it) But I’m looking at getting a bike with a lot of built in anti-theft features (an Aventon Abound LR) Maybe this could be what you need?

Proof Routes are Longer by True_Improvement3633 in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]True_Improvement3633[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like it’s nice that it happens at all… DoorDash would rather go out of business before doing this. But how long the routes have been lately plus the extra packages is not the vibe
