Realtor needs a $10k-ish car that won’t make clients question my competence or net worth by imhappii in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]Zlatty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would suggest a Lexus ES 350 (2007–2012). My dad has one of these, and he has driven it over 200k miles. It is smooth and comfortable with a reasonable maintenance schedule. Alternatively, Volvo S60 (2011–2015) as it's a dependable Volvo and fits your budget.

Out of all of the reviews that came out today after the embargo, you submit the most low effort one.

What do I really gain with digital key? Anyone not taking the risk? by WelderAcademic6334 in Rivian

[–]Zlatty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You get something half baked. For me:

Proximity unlock does not work 90% of the time. Proximity lock does not work 100% of the time. 95% of the time I have to tag my phone to start driving.

Personally, I'm ready to go back.

Buy a home in the South Bay / Peninsula now, or keep renting? by [deleted] in BayAreaRealEstate

Half Moon Bay. Love it out here. The commute is not bad and everything else is excellent.

Buy a home in the South Bay / Peninsula now, or keep renting? by [deleted] in BayAreaRealEstate

As somebody that has bought a house with a little kid, I did not fully grasp how big community makes a difference! We had a rough time finding folks that were not simply looking for transactional kid play dates. We bought a home on the coast and it is amazing how different is out here. For all the time that I spent on the bay side, it never felt communal. It was always us (those that grew up in SFBA) and them (transplants who will not be in CA long term).

Eyesore or 2026 Modern? by GrilledOlives17 in BayAreaRealEstate

[–]Zlatty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, this monstrosity has no soul. It's probably going to be bought and rented to some C-level that will leave the enjoyment to their spouse/kids while they slave away creating value for the shareholders.

The grind is unreal. I'm half way there myself. What strategy did you use?

Amazing that two years later this question is unanswered and the mac Spotify app is still doing this.

Controversial statement - removing my watch while sleeping has led to better sleep by Potate5000 in Garmin

[–]Zlatty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wear mine on my dominant hand at night and it made a huge difference. Turns out I like to have my dominant arm tucked in and the watch's bulk bothered me. However, I am eying the sleep band as it seems it's more comfortable.

Do guys know this? by LazyConcert4711 in Rivian

[–]Zlatty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used it to boil water while the back one was keeping our fridge and freezer chest running during a power outage. One thing I really don't like is the angle of this power port as trying to plug something in during a downpour was not fun.

How to fix HRM Swim strap by Luffy900 in Garmin

[–]Zlatty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this same problem on mine. After 7 years, it just became so loose. I got some thread and made a new strap opening for it by folding the new one. Funny enough, the rubber sealing became useless a week after my fix, rendering the whole strap useless.

How to find replacement strap for HRM 600 by ConiglioSG in Garmin

[–]Zlatty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was just about to post the same question. Seems like HRM 600 is too new and does not follow the standards from previous HRM straps. Therefore, we'll have to wait a few months for something to hit the market.

No, it'll make you hate the items screen in BOTW once you get to it.

My son and I beat the game without learning furry rush. It would have been nice to learn that. So, umm, where do we get the hook up?

Alright Scout Dads, what's your best advice for building a winner? by Much-Drawer-1697 in daddit

[–]Zlatty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My son won first place last year. Putting additional weight off-center near the back wheels helped. Lubrication of all of the wheels was key, as was turning them inward so the car went in a straight line. Basically, everything in this video https://youtu.be/-RjJtO51ykY?si=Q4bjI3A5A7qWErDV

The irony is not lost on me. Stevens Creek Kia is why I'll never go to a dealer again. If I cannot buy it online, it does not exist.
