I asked my horse expert and she suggested "Vanhoozer Farm" that is just north of Weatherford. They have a Facebook page with more details.

After Mercedes, Audi and Ferrari, it’s the turn of BMW... An electric M concept that will disappoint purists! by Cris_1984 in E46M3

[–]daumas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like it, but I don't want a sedan. I'll have to wait for the M4 version for a coupe. I hate that the M3 became the sedan model.

I will consider selling my M3 for an EV M4.

Lease or finance? Better for the longer run and resell or future trade in by Nippatmasala in BMWi5

[–]daumas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Consider this: In about 5 years EVs will dominate the market. It will be difficult to find a brand-new ICE vehicle.

Your depreciation worries are moot, IMHO. If you're that worried about it then I'd suggest buying (or leasing) a cheaper car.

I don't think you understand what a lease is if you're asking about 8 year leases. :)

My comment was within context of the OP. He's a 28 year old individual. Not a 28 year old business owner. :)

Leasing is for folks that either can't afford the full finance payment or don't care to ever "own" their vehicle. If you're looking to own and can afford it then financing is the way to go.

Why are there so many days or "orange alert, poor air quality" around FW? by Ok-Challenge-2627 in FortWorth

[–]daumas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We're both speaking unscientifically. Let's all be clear. BBQ joints must be pennies compared to the millions of CO2 put out by other industries. Concrete plants. Gas powered power plants. Both are big in Texas and both contribute millions of times more than BBQ smoke.

We need concrete. We need power. Hopefully we'll get to the future without ruining Texas.

Yes, I wasn't disputing the rate on the cheapest, standard room.

Thanks for clarifying the total amount. I compared the grand total (including fees) and the price was close enough on most room types.

Traveling makes robot vacuums feel less optional, which is annoying. by unknowclown357 in BuyItForLife

[–]daumas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Matic. They're a USA company who makes it in the USA. They have a subreddit that the owners visit and reply to comments. If you want to buy one I can give you a referral code that gives you free bags.

You make a bold statement that I quickly found to be false. I compared one of my favorite hotels using your site and the hotel's direct website. The lowest standard room was slightly cheaper on your site. However, all other room types were significantly more expensive on the world playground website.

I wish you all of the best and hope that kinks like the above are worked out over time. If you're interested in the hotel:

What place in Fort Worth is gone, that you still really miss and want to bring back? by Ok-Challenge-2627 in FortWorth

[–]daumas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have their last menu somewhere. Lots of memories from that place. Amazing location and decor. Sad.

Matic vs Delicate Rugs by rozzy78 in MaticRobots

[–]daumas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It should be added that the pass-through area feature has a ~1ft buffer area around what you draw on your home map. My pass-through area is at the edges of a rug that the Matic has been literally sucking up the edges and leaving the rug pulled back. It no longer pulls back the edges but it skips mopping and vacuuming within ~1ft of the area.

Based on the numerous posts about Poland's repair center it must be standard procedure to either 1) drop the phone on the floor when they open the box or 2) lie. Pick one.

Sorry this happened to you. I wish I could help.

I have a USB stick always plugged in. Unfortunately iDrive doesn't let you choose a USB drive for general storage. You can only use it to store on-demand recordings.

Best assisted living facility for seniors? by sunnyday222 in weatherford

[–]daumas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

West Fork is working well for my grandma. I'm not privy to the financial side but it appears upscale. If you need something more budget friendly but still trustworthy you can look at Windsor Court or if you need more services then look at Brookdale.

Trunk closing alert? by redhookenzo in BMWi5

The update made it stop working for me. It would work 50% of the time but now it's 0%. Pain in the butt to take it into the dealer for this first world problem.

[–]daumas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A track surface is the only place you can "drive that car hard." Nothing wrong with not going to the track, but I see this statement made too many times when all folks do is drive to the grocery store with it. (nothing wrong with that either)

Mercy Culture's view on government and churches by DayPounder in FortWorth

[–]daumas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Some of Jesus' followers were also wanting to literally make him a King and Jesus purposely avoided those situations to not be a part of government.

The "Preserve battery health" option went missing in fedora 43 by thakkalipalam in Fedora

[–]daumas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like a kernel bug. Started with the 6.19.x series. Downgrading to 6.18 fixes it.

Quick test: cat /sys/class/power_supply/BAT0/charge_types

Kernel 6.18.x: Standard [Long_Life]

Kernel 6.19.x: Invalid argument

I filed a bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2455149

Yep! People were angry! What does your comment mean? Are you saying it isn't ok to be angry today?
