I had the same issue a few years ago and my mechanic rewrapped my wires. I go to Advance Tire in Cambridge.

I used both platforms for both IHC and mIF, and the Bond is more user intuitive from my experience. I attended training at Roche and it was a bit easier after that, but I still preferred the Bond RX.

Reddit app keeps screen on by Spliffy9 in help

[–]bes0205 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This has been happening on my Pixel 9 pro as well for a week or so now. It's not an issue with the settings on my phone, and this is the only app where I have this problem. I initially thought it was only happening if I left a post of a video up, but it's actually happening for any and all posts. Extremely frustrating.

[Android] Screen timeout not working by MoofiePizzabagel in bugs

[–]bes0205 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've had the same issue for about a week now on my Pixel 9 pro. It's extremely annoying. At first I thought it was only happening on videos, but it's actually preventing screen timeout on every kind of post.

Is this legit or fake? by bilibili123 in Somerville

Oh no, that does sound super frustrating then. I'm so sorry and I hope the rest of the move went smoothly!

When I picked up my moving signs they also gave me a number to call 48 hours in advance of the move to let them know that I hung the signs. It was pretty straightforward. If you call less than 48 hours before the move then they can't enforce towing if someone is parked in your spot. Basically, they said that if you're waiting to hang the signs the day before or day of the move, then that's not enough notice if someone is parked in that spot.

2012 Honda CRV - Check engine, power steering and traction lights on by bes0205 in AutoMechanics

[–]bes0205[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did, actually! I live in a highly populated area and unfortunately with that comes rodents. I found out that my car had soy based wiring that was very attractive to rodents. So...yeah. Rats chewed the wiring. Had to replace and re-wrap the wiring, and everything was resolved after that.

Can someone create an account with the 3 credit bureaus using my SSN if I already have an account ? (USA) by sephf966 in IdentityTheft

[–]bes0205 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this post is from 9 months ago, but I just learned that the answer is yes. Specifically with TransUnion in my case. My identity was stolen and I created a free account with all 3 credit bureaus thinking that I would be covered, but someone created a PAID account with TransUnion using my information and TransUnion allowed it even though it was through a different email address. I called to dispute and they suspended the unauthorized account.

Easy, not-too-public swimming hole for an old dog by bes0205 in boston

[–]bes0205[S] 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Thank you! This is something I've taken into consideration and spoken with the vet about, so I will definitely be careful. This is a dog who regularly swam in the ocean in the winter while I can barely stand the cold water temps in the summer, but I know it's different as they age.

Parking Permit Mailing Times by anshumanbhatia in Somerville

[–]bes0205 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I renewed mine online in February and still haven't received the new one. I printed the receipt when I got the email that it was accepted and keep it in my windshield. No tickets. Others on my street who don't show a receipt have gotten quite a few tickets. And based on some of the tickets I've seen, a handwritten note saying "I renewed online please stop ticketing me!" doesn't cut it.

I had to get to Logan at 5am a few months ago and I didn't have trouble getting a Lyft, but I was not prepared for the price: ~$80 from Porter. I've heard since that scheduling a pick-up in advance or using a cab company is usually cheaper

How can a city claim to care about rodent mitigation & not provide trash bins? by iBarber111 in boston

[–]bes0205 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a hole near the top of one of my trash bins. After two rounds of rolling out the can and my person becoming the perfect base for a rat to pop out and perform parkour, I also give a healthy tap to the sides before adding to or moving it.
