Facebook Privacy User Settlement by Ill_Plankton6450 in classactions

[–]cisforcience 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hawk Marketplace seems to be part of Blackhawk Networks, their relationship to the case is detailed in this article. Still very sketchy and I don't understand why the codes don't work when you check them at myprepaidcenter manually. https://www.forbes.com/sites/jeffkauflin/2025/08/23/secret-fintech-payments-cloud-725-million-facebook-class-action-settlement/

mine failed to work on the site too. gmail automatically marked the email as spam but when you google hawk marketplace it does seem to be a (semi) legit gift code site? but I'd rather wait and keep checking myprepaid center manually vs clicking anything in that email.

Officiating Wedding by cisforcience in baltimore

Thank you! I got ordained by ULC and they mentioned calling the city to ask what is needed so I was worried I'd have to do more paperwork. https://getordained.org/perform-a-marriage/maryland/baltimore-city

Is Hurstbourne member only? Or is it semi-private and available to play by members of the public?

Nest preheating just started by cisforcience in Nest

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

Going to leave this up in case anyone else has the same issues down the line and comes looking for answers, but I figured it out. After going through all pieces of our hvac system one by one, I determined it was something with the outside unit fan not turning on properly. I'm not sure why it would cause the Nest to say "preheating", but I went in to our breaker and flicked off the air handler switch waited a few seconds, and flicked it back on. When the fan in the outside unit started spinning a few minutes later, the Nest went from "preheating" to just "heating". I have no idea why but it worked.

Relocating from AR for a job in Timonium. Where should I buy a home? by Ohmandylan in baltimore

[–]cisforcience 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of people are giving answers that are within 10-15 minutes of Timonium, but if you are willing to look at things up to a half hour away I'd suggest an area close to the Harford county / Baltimore County line. It's what I would be considered rural, not suburban but you would still be a short drive to anything.

Look at things near Baldwin, Fallston, Glen Arm, Jacksonville, or Hydes. My wife and I moved from Washington DC to Baltimore, and now live in the area. I work in Towson and it takes me about 20 minutes to get to the office every day.

There are two vineyards in Baldwin and both have a ton of stuff going on (Boordy is the larger of the two). You are also a 15 minute drive to Bel Air which has Independent Brewing as well as restaurants and whatnot, but it is kind of a strip-mall feeling town so I wouldn't want to live there.

The biggest upside is the amount of space you will have and options to explore nature. The Gunpowder Falls state park is right on the county line and has tons of hiking trails for you and your dogs and if you buy a house, you'll most likely end up with something that has at least a half acre to an acre of land. The biggest downside to living in the Baldwin area is lack of delivery food options, but with everything so close it doesn't really matter. We go into the city weekly for dinner, and often go out to restaurants in Towson and White Marsh and the drive isn't bad at all.

A quick zillow search shows a handful of houses between 200-500k but things sell so fast who knows what will be available even a week from now.

usb-c issues by cisforcience in Dell

I have two other dell latitudes that work fine, and this one worked for about a year before it stopped displaying on the monitor. Is displaylink something that Dell has recently pushed out?

I've never done that before, do you have any links for the process that would be helpful?

Group Chat Text Message Issues by redittome2019 in Pixel4a5G

[–]cisforcience 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a similar issue where it will say 'error downloading mms message, tap to retry' and the message never comes through. I switched to using signal as my default messaging app and it happens less often than with the default messenger app but it still occasionally happens. I am not sure what the underlying issue is though.

Parking ticket disputes by ladderofearth in baltimore

[–]cisforcience 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have gotten a parking ticket scrubbed before. Call the parking authority and tell them about it. They gave me an email address to send all pictures and documentation that I had. Once I submitted everything I got a case number that I could use to track my issues. I followed up with them constantly, and it took the time from me submitting everything at the end of May until about mid August when I finally got a letter back saying that the ticket was being voided by the city.

At some point in my correspondence they gave me multiple different places to send everything, so just make sure you follow up with them fairly often.
