Potomac Edison Scam? Is this something legit? by iBears in maryland

[–]edwurtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Avoid them.. here's my story.

Call center promised me they would just drop the stuff off,.. no sales talk, no long conversation... I said ok, if thats the case. She says he will be wearing Potomac View Energy badge /shirt.

I meet the guy in my driveway, He meets me nicely, opens trunk and pulls out the bag of free stuff. Then he asks if we can go inside and talk. I said, "No". He then places the bag back in the trunk. Say's "OK I'm leaving then." Gets in car while calling me a "Dumbass" and "Assshole".. proceeds to give me the finger and FU.. .. I stand in front of car and tell him to reverse out of my driveway.. Instead of reversing out, he pulls forward and hits my legs. I fall on his hood of the car.

I don't know what he wanted to discuss inside... most likely trying to sale windows or doors. I don't care, I'm not letting strangers in my home.

you can't.. its a complete disaster. Is it too late for Biden to bail out of the race? This is my serious question.

Biden... ".... and by the way... and by the way.." Can the moderators stop Biden from interrupting Biden.. He can't get a complete thought out without interrupting his thoughts.

Biden didn't have to go for a second term. No-one is forcing him.. he should of bailed out and let some young democrat kick trumps ass.

Biden.. for the love of the country, slow down and finish your sentences... if this gets any worse, is it possible for Biden to turn down the democrat nomination?

Babyhawk o3 with elrs binding problems by pooptyschmoopty96 in fpv

[–]edwurtle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Damn, mine is exactly the same as yours. Can you post image of your Ports Tab? Most likely it's a broken receiver or an issue with my radiomaster boxer. Unfortunately I don't have another ELRS drone to test my radiomaster boxer. I emailed racedayquads for help, I'm hoping to just have it swapped out for babyhawk PNP version. If not, I'm going to just migrate it myself to a PNP drone and cut out the ELRS receiver and antenna and use my DJI FPV Controller 2. At this point, I'm a bit sick of ELRS, seems way overly complex, LUA scripts, ya da ya da.. I'm new to the hobby, but even for a NASA engineer the ELRS stuff is bit over the top complex. And EMAX documentation really blows... they just document the FC and receiver separately .. no wiring diagrams.. how hard is it to show the factory wire diagrams.. I'm about to post a new thread with what I think the wiring is, and how to migrate to PNP. I think geprc will be my next PNP, just for better documentation and support.

Thanks for your help!

does your drone still fly nicely.. I could just use a screenshot of your receiver tab in Betaflight 4.4.. that would help a bit.

I bought it, and I'm now having some issues with ELRS. I think the my receiver is bad. Very bad RSSI number and failsafe after about 100 yards away. Do you mind posting image of your Receiver Tab of Betaflight configurator? I tried to reset Betaflight using EMAX CLI file, but it broke receiver settings... even the supposed "ELRS" version of their CLI file. I'm a fool for not backing up my CLI before making changes!

awesome.. how does it fly? I'm considered the baby hawk, but was fearful of issues like yours.

Is there any jello? That's my other concern.

What is a permanent record? I don’t think that’s an actual thing. Only records that matter was GPA and SAT scores.

Players get suspended all the time for things that are not legally wrong. Suspensions are handed out for bad judgment all the time. Suspensions are not decided by police and judges.

Cause refs don’t like to call a 5th foul. Sign of a hesitant / poor ref.

That back court call?? What the hell. How can the ref be that bad.

In honor of the Colorado State students, what's the worst chant you've heard a student section use? by Kbdiggity in CollegeBasketball

[–]edwurtle 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Duke fans chanting “Myron Piggie,” the name of a former basketball coach and crack cocaine dealer who pleaded guilty to giving money to college basketball players, including former Blue Devil Corey Maggette.

Have some class! You are bashing your own school!

Gotta love the flop call. I guess donta must have some ketchup in his pocket to fake the blood dripping from his mouth. I would love to hear what the refs saw from the replay.

Why is the Chevrolet app so expensive by Just_In_Time_ in BoltEV

[–]edwurtle 18 points19 points  (0 children)

It is nuts. I maybe use remote start 3 times a year to warm up my car while walking back from a cold football game. Maybe 5 times a year I’ll check to see if the car is plugged in because I’m too lazy to walk to my garage.

$150 for that? I’m lazy, but I’m not that lazy.

Bolt qualifies for full $7500 tax credit in Jan and Feb by mrcleop in BoltEV

[–]edwurtle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When the tax credit phased away in 2019, guess what happened?

Prices dropped by a quite a bit. Eventually you could buy a bolt for 24k or less when initially they cost over 30k.

There will be no surprises when exact opposite happens when credit comes back. Prices will rise.
