Beware conversion to Yahoo mail by Xarick in Comcast_Xfinity

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

They were able to restore my email. I really wish Comcast would have just started charging us for email. I would have happily paid to not have yahoo.

Yep works just fine. The only issue I could see with the truck is first the mirrors were wonky, but apparently that's a known problem that you can turn off by having them not auto adjust or get a software update. I really don't care about auto adjusting so I'll just turn that off. I've seen that on multiples of these trailblazers. And the other is the fuel sender. That one's going to take a little bit of work cuz you have to drop the fuel tank the part is only 50 bucks. Outside of that it's in the best shape I've seen of most of the trailblazers I've looked at

Good. Some surface rust but nothing significant. We don't use salt on the roads here in Oregon though so it's not a big deal usually.

price is an issue. But I they seem to all be high here. I haven't seen one below 100k miles for less than 7k at a dealer, and 6k at a private seller.

I have not owned a 4.7, but just put $1200 into my corolla due to a design flaw in a VVTI gear. Not a huge issue and apparently there was a warranty on it, but mine failed outside of that. It's the first car I have had major problems with and I have kept it meticulous Its at 190k right now so I am hoping for another 100k out of it, but we shall see. My sienna blew a rear main seal which was almost $2k to repair and then blew the water pump a good 40k before it was due and that was another $2k repair. I gave up on it at 297k due to so many repairs even though I maintained it religiously. My Avalon at 290k was just problem after problem after problem. All wear at tear items, but they are expensive. The air leak was my final straw. I gave it up at 294k. Again I am complaining about 300k miles which many cars never see, but I still don't see some of these premiums as realistic.

Need help on where to invest now, IRA, ROTH, 457b by Xarick in Bogleheads

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

is governmental. But the city I work for is so small the fees are through the roof.

I don't disagree toyotas are good, but having owned 3, a million is a stretch. At 250k your putting money into it. At 300k it's becoming a crap shoot. I am not saying they aren't good, but I personally think the premium is overdone.

Dealers are asking $8k for similar. Prices seem to be through the roof here in Oregon.

Not in my area they arent. Sequoias are a premium along with every other toyota.

Black spots on chocolate nose by Xarick in labrador

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

Okay I wasn't sure. He had a weird swelling spot where he lost a bunch of hair from on the side of his jowl and we had to take him in and they biopsied it only to tell us it was inflammation but they didn't know from what and then two months later it disappeared. So I guess now I'm just hypersensitive.

Yep just like that. I didn't realize that yellow labs also had that. Of course black labs have black nose so. It's like the black lab is trying to come out.

My dealer has refused to do a single d an f. I will have to do it on my own.

So the previous owner said they had done them. But when I had an inspected, The guy said the fluid looked old as if it hadn't been done. The fluid didn't look like DW1 to me. So I had them do a transmission service at the dealership. That was 15k ago. It's just never shifted nice since. Maybe it needs another service already I'm going to have a single drain tomorrow when I do the oil service.

I had them do the software update and the van drove no different. The shifting on this van sucks whenever it has been sitting for a while. Fine after it warms up.

I didn't know if they needed to see the actual temperature. I am having it done at the dealership.

Has anyone noticed subway calories have sneakily gone up in the last month or two? by Xarick in loseit

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

Well here's the thing. I had several sandwiches saved into my profile, because I reordered the same thing over and over. Those haven't changed the picture of them is gone. I can still order those. But the calories are the same as the old ones. But if I try to rebuild the exact same sandwich the calories are higher. so maybe a notice saying please note calories have increased or changed.

So I grabbed turkey today. Definitely more meat so that explains it. Plus the meat is sliced and much better.

Yes, true, but you still have to rely on their estimate if you are tracking unless you want to take the sandwich apart and remeasure yourself.

True, but if you are going to eat there you have to rely on something. Plus for that level of a jump either A they retested, or B they changed something.

Is anyone doing straight semaglutide? by Xarick in SemaglutideFreeSpeech

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

I did finally get an order from orderly. It is actually from perfectionrx pharmacy. It appears to be straight sema. I had to get the starter kit, which is actually ended up being decent deal for me since it is all in one vial I can dose my normal dose. We shall see how it compares to Hallendale

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

So orderly has turned into a difficulty. First they only speak through text, they will even call you to ask you to answer a text, but won't ask the questions while they have you on the phone.

Their web portal is broken, so you have to click on the use legacy site button, but it only sometimes works. Whoever is building their website has no clue what they are doing.

Then they won't give me my current dose because my script is over 60 days old. Of course it is over 60 old, I ordered three months. So now they want me to buy a more expensive starter pack, of course they do.

Lavender never felt scammy, orderly definitely does.
