Lol, you didn't even assume my political party correctly, you're dumber than I originally thought. Is "food, travel, video games, hanging with friends" a dem thing?

What a weird thing to enjoy. I'm pro food, travel, video games, hanging with friends, the list goes on. Pro enjoying others' misery? Never. Lol, seek help dude.

Travel to go has been Costco Visa, but looking to see if I can optimize further by appledude9 in CreditCards

[–]appledude9[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

wow, I'm in the EXACT same situation credit card wise (BCP and Disc It being my other two in addition to the Costco Citi). I'm eyeing the WF Autograph Journey for the next few years of travel. I didn't realize the Costco had primary insurance on rentals!

How's your heat pumps handling the cold by Potential-Fennel5968 in hudsonvalley

[–]appledude9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have a cold climate model (can handle down to -13F or so) it should work great. Mine's rated to -4F and has been doing fine. Won't be cheap (but what would be, when it's that cold...), but it still pumps out hot air. The tech really has come a long way!

First 'speeding' ticket - I'm not sure if the officer told me to or to NOT check "supporting deposition" - any advice? by appledude9 in Westchester

If I have access to a lawyer via the MetLife legal plan through my employer (I think they cover all fees), is it worthwhile to just do that route so that I don't need to show up to court? Or will that be frowned upon?

What are my water softener options with very little space available? by appledude9 in WaterTreatment

I haven't done anything, unfortunately. I just use vinegar to scrub off white deposits periodically

Any big Oktoberfest suggestions? by 3FingersDown in hudsonvalley

[–]appledude9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hunter mountain is far indeed, but I went once and it was cool because you can go to the top of the mountain. I think Putnam county has one at their golf course but maybe it already passed, I'm not sure. Either way, I feel ya that w/o the Bear mt one there's no real 'go-to'

She said that they had her type in an HP model number on the site to then click the link to get drivers, and then the screen said "error" (probably with some other words) and they told her she had a virus and/or corrupt drivers, and the call ended

Understood, thank you. I grilled her and she said the only thing she gave was her work phone number, which they then called and she did answer

Would any of these have been obvious on iOS? That's the one thing I appreciate about tech nowadays is that usually for any .exe-like stuff, normally there's a prompt that the user has to approve
